For Lovers of Sci-Fi Art

[RooksBailey]

I stumbled across this site quite by accident.  It is called Concept: X, where the "x" is broken down into sub-sites such as ships, robots, tanks, aliens, vehicles and guns. There is some fantastic sci-fi artwork on these pages, from a wide variety of artists, that makes for some great desktop wallpaper.   Here is the link for Concept: Ships:

Let me guess: you already posted about this site.  Doh!   ;D  It's hard to be the first with new stuff around here.    ;D

Ive wasted days on that site and its offshoots.  theres a lot of preproduction work that gets put up there for both games and tv/movies.  I saw the original (and much better) Enterprise design for the Abrams reboot.

Reddit has a good forum for starship art as well.

Really?  That is good to know!  Now I can get a sneak peak at some movie magic.   :)  Unfortunately, the sad thing is that all that cool art never seems to actually make it into the movies.  So much of that artwork has a dark, industrial look to it, yet all I ever see in the movies is shiny and clean visions of a sci-fi future. 

Oh, and thanks!   :D
