Anthony Sieben

Anthony Sieben's portfolio features some wonderfully alien creature designs that would be perfect for a space opera. He's also done some animation while studying at the Haute école Albert Jacquard.

Sam Nielson is an artist for Disney Interactive's Avalanche Software, but he comes up with plenty of fun characters of his own. His deviantART gallery is filled with not just his professional work, but also the wonderful scenes he sketches up for fun.

Dave Melvin

Dave Melvin is a concept artist and instructor at the Academy of Art University, and he has some particularly striking creature designs. Although some of his creatures feel purely fantastical, others seem pulled from a future where biological technology has advanced to create new organic beings.

Simon Stålenhag

Sweden-based artist Simon Stålenhag also has a rather intriguing illustration series that would make for a striking movie setting. His retrofuturistic illustrations imagine great machines coexisting with a Sweden of decades ago. Often, these machines appear to be decaying, and sometimes they are joined by a passing dinosaur.

Robert Chew

Concept development artist Robert Chew has been wowing us with his series of illustrations featuring robotic animals, especially his Big Five series, which imagines a future in which anti-poaching operatives are aided by mechanical rhinos, lions, and vultures (although the poachers have some robotic tools of their own). Chew is looking to turn the series into a book to benefit the International Anti-Poaching Foundation, but we'd love to see a movie.

Sergi Brosa

Barcelona-based Sergi Brosa is a freelance illustrator, character designer, and concept artist, and his vibrantly colored illustrations show a careful attention to fashion, architecture, and technology. His images often feature machines that are at once bespoke and futuristic, and the details invite us to imagine the world they inhabit—which is why his images show up so frequently in our Concept Art Writing Promp
