#marchofrobots2018: Iain Thody

Today's March of Robots 2018 blog-feature focuses on the art of United Kingdom-based Concept and UI graphics artist Iain Thody (Behance / Blog)!

Make sure to swipe on embedded Instagram image to see the rough-pencil base of the final image! I certainly love to see analog illustrations, featuring straight up inks and schweet basic grey shading!

Stay connected to Instagram @iainthody for (hopefully) more of his art!

Kinda like this one. Proportions n’all. Tall and thin like the Castle in the Sky robots. Gentle giants. Might change the style of body shapes. So it’s not the usual habit of mark making. #marchofrobots #castleinthesky #ghibli #sketchbook #pencilandink #robots #artificialintelligence #scifi #silentrunning #instasketch #conceptart

Botanical service robot ? ... MK3. Not quite what I had in mind but I went with it. Wheels to whizz down those long spaceship corridors. #marchofrobots #robots #sketchbook #conceptart #shortcircuit #castleinthesky #silentrunning #scifi #mecha

Just went with the initial scribble. Even more off the mark...still continue with this botanical droid theme. #marchoftherobots #robot #sketchbook #Laputa #silentrunning #artificialintelligence #mech #scifi

March of the robots ... er robot. I’ll call it “prototype” as it doesn’t hit the mark. Intention is to create a gardening droid. Having in mind ghibli’s Laputa and Silent running. Robots faithfully doing their duties. Looks too industrial. So another version in order #marchoftherobots #marchofrobots2018 #silentrunning #castleinthesky #robots #sketchbook #scifi #conceptart #mecha
