UPDATE: Jock's Concept Art for 'Dredd' (2012) Proves He Is the Law

Update: I've confirmed with the artist that while he did do concept art and design and a full break down of the script these pieces are done purely for his own enjoyment.

The upcoming remake of the 1995 film Judge Dredd, simply called Dredd, promises to look stunning.
Plot Summary: In a violent, futuristic city where the police have the authority to act as judge, jury and executioner, a cop teams with a trainee to take down a gang that deals the reality altering drug, SLO-MO.
The concept artist known simply as Jock has created some bold images with broad strokes of color and atmospheric tones.

  1. Didn't even know the remake was happening. Concept art looks cool and I'm looking forward to it.

  2. This is not concept-art for the film Dredd. These are some pieces the Dredd comic-book artist named Jock did for himself before he was hired to do art-work for the film. No artwork for the film Dredd has been publicly seen yet.

  3. Thanks for the feedback garageman! It may not be official, but it is artwork from the property by one of the artists. If I can get official "yeah or nay" from the insiders I'll add a note.

  4. The Judge uniform in Jock's art above is the literal comic book version, the film is a different interpretation. I know Jock himself said it was only some spec work he did in January 2010. He did do a full comic/storyboard/pre-vis version of the entire script in pre-production which may get future release.

    However, there is one 'official' storyboard page out there drawn by Frederick Mpuuga, a storyboard artist from Cape Town where 'Dredd' was shot:
