Awesome! I logged onto DV hoping to find some motivation to jump-start my lucid dreaming again, and I stumble across this thread =) Very inspirational pictures..

Thanks for sharing!

I love that one. I really enjoy the lighting there, the look of the sky. It may not be the sun rising, but that is what I think of. I haven't ever had a lucid dream where I have been able to change settings, but this is probably the most inspiring thread I've seen in a while.

That picture you just quoted looks like a video-game graphic engine. Still, impressive!

Haha, didn't even notice that when I first saw it. But now that you mention it, it does look a lot like a scene out of Counter-Strike: Source xD.

I thought it did too! But yeah, it is still neat.

Woozie...I'm glad you stumbled into this thread, hope it helps you.

Yeah, it's definitely a source engine, with how everything is smooth.

I love the last one, titled "Path of the Shapeshifter"

Thanks for sharing.

Yeah that last one is amazing! Beautiful. Thanks

These are amazing, insiprational is the perfect word to describe them. Love the gardener in the sky one. Thanks so much for posting them Nina

No, it's rendered in a 3D program I looked at the source of that picture because it looks exactly like the ones I see hanging in my school. It's a blank 3D alley and the students had to texture it. What he did is the same but he added a bit extra content like those wooden planks over the windows. But it might actually be his 3D modelling work as well and our school could've used his 3D model as a base for the students to use

Anyhow: Here's some of the environmental artwork I've collected over the last year that's inspirational in relation to dreaming
It's less surrealistic that most images here though but I think they're beautiful

Is this not part of the second Prince of Persia game?

Wow beautiful thank you for sharing! Those are the sort of images I love as well. I really love that one artist you posted a few of his paintings (the first several), I have seen them on Deviant Art, so gorgeous. I have never seen that painting with the sailboat before...that is absolutely beautiful. I want a poster!

This is exactly what I want to do with my Lucid Dreams!
I would like to use them to inspire me to create art. I really need to get my ass into gear and start drawing XD

Wow, this thread's quickly turning into all kinds of awesome. Keep em coming.

Forgot to mention another guy famous for album art: Roger Dean





He's got quite a dream-like style. He did covers for many bands over the years, most well known of which is Yes.

I am a HUGE Roger Dean fan! I WILL live in one of his self sustainable bio apartments someday! I actually have a thread about him on here somewhere, regarding people living in Round vs. Square houses.

Ladon gives me an idea...





well only found 2 good images, but it's a contribution.

Beautiful!! Do you know who the artist is?

If anyone posts pics it would be awesome if you posted the artist name too, I might end up featuring them for weekly artist. Though I realize many images fall out of no where.

Actually it's a photo. I took it from deviantart.com, which has lots of pretty pics about LD.

I must go there later this month!

I wish. They're both comcept art for the Prince of Persia series, the first one is for the first game (Sands of Time) and I think the second is too. I was hoping to find more, I know on the game disc for Warrior Within in the extras there's some pretty cool stuff.

Just taking a closer look back through some of the pics, this is some great stuff. Makes me want to ge back into LDing full time (I've been slacking off quite a bit lately). Guess that'll be my resolution for 2010.

This one is probably my favorite. I'll have to visit it next time I'm lucid.

Whaaa? Roger Dean apartments? I did a quick search and all I could really find was this: http://www.re-nest.com/re-nest/green...lowater-088138. Looks absolutely incredible, that'd be an awesome place to live. Doubt I'll ever be able to afford something like that though, looks like something out of Dubai .

just a little something i drew that you might find dreamesc

Man this art inspires me to draw but every time i try i can never seem to get whats in my head on to paper
