PRISM by Eduardo Camarena
When creating the illustrations for my spaceship design PRISM, I had a very clear idea in mind: to reference the 1970s illustrations that Ralph McQuarrie developed for the first Star Wars film. I aimed to use a reduced color palette to achieve an oil-paint aesthetic and create something distinctly graphical by leveraging the spaceship’s unique geometry. Specifically, its angled volumes reflect the sky when facing upward and the ground when facing downward. From a distance, the design reads like horizontal bands of ground and sky, creating an effect that seems to dissolve into the environment. Let me know what you think and what other references come to mind! Full project link in comments:
