Machina Deus Value Collar Concept

These are a couple of concept "sketches" I did a year or two ago for the "value collars" in a new dystopian science fiction series by Taya DeVere. The first more ornate, polished metal collars, a gilded cage of sorts, these collars symbolize the wearer's place in society, as well as control, monitor, and even punish and execute them if deemed necessary by the ones who hold the keys. The Second, white one is the version for the farm and garden "AGRI" workers collar, as opposed to the more gilded version worn by those that directly serve the "Elites". The lights start out as a single red light, when they all go green, watch out! People with a row of green lights don't seem to be around as much...or at all...
