A quick tip by Alex Senechal on thinking about the details of sci-fi artworks.

Alex Senechal, one of the true hard surface masters, shared a great piece on working with the structure of sci-fi works. Many artist tend to use tons of details without much consideration for what they imply and that’s not a good move. Alex explained why it’s extremely important to think about every little detail.
