Might as well make a thread of my own for containing these, even if people don't check these boards much anymore.

Starting off with a Weather Star XL v2 "Traffic Flow" concept, taking inspiration from TWCZach's concept from 2009:

Where did you get that background? That looks like a background from TWC's Weather Star XL Release Notes from way back in the day, a prototype version of the September 2001-August 2005 background, but how did you get it with no overlays?

Glad to still see someone posting art here. I used to look at this stuff constantly several years ago, and it's nice to see that not absolutely everything is on Discord these days. I really like how that turned out.

Whoops, I managed to forget this thread existed. Anyways, here are some more things I haven't yet shared here:

Weather Star XL v3 Traffic Flow concept, made not too long after I made the v2 concept.


An Air Quality concept for Weatherscan Local (XL) I made back in October 2023.


And more recently, here is a concept of Retro (on the) 8's except a bit more accurate to how it could be presented on the WeatherSTAR 4000. Featuring a custom LDL that fits with the current era of TWC (although probably doesn't look the best with overscan.)

With TWC Today coming back online, I can finally update the thread with these I created recently:

Recently, I decided to take an old concept of mine and redo it in present day. Here was the result:

(Current Conditions slide; still somewhat unfinished)
I also attempted to convert all of the other products to fit the rebrand, trying to make it as software accurate as possible:

(Weather Bulletin slide)

(Daypart Forecast/Daily Planner slide)

(Almanac slide)

(36 Hour/Local Forecast slide; excerpt taken from Daft Punk's Giorgio By Moroder)

(The Week Ahead/7 Day Forecast slide)
To date, I still have yet to come up with something for the 3-Day Forecast, Marine Forecast slides, and the Maps. Maybe even bring over that Traffic Flow concept at some point, despite that seemingly not being on the IntelliSTAR 2.
