looks fantastic - makes me want to get my old elite game back to the computer. The texture of the planet in the top frame is really great. How did you do that?
thank you !!! now thats an compliment ! elite rules. i recommend eve online for an similar feeling... most of the basic techniques i used for the space back-grounds i learned here : [link] i don´t follow the tutorials exactly- but it gives an good idea how to make planets,nebula,star-fields and such.
The pop-up cannon on the top ship is an interesting design. If it were down, the ship would appear unarmed. The gun designs on these appear far more mechanistic. And I like the coloring scheme you chose.
yep- this is an drone-ship- so it comes along almost unarmed- but it got an hidden surprise-weapon... the client wanted me to do an more traditional design for the "matter-family" in the vein of star wars and battlestar galactica. glad you enjoy !
I absolutely loves these! The colors are fantastic and the ships are so crisp and detailed. You are getting better and better at your space environments too (if they werent great already ) keep it up buddy!
hey thanks alot jared ! there are still more to come- i´m knee-deep in work atm. not much time for our group.... we could need an new monthly topic, no? if you have an idea let me know !!!
Oh understandable. Knee deep in work is an awesome things! Congrats man I will start brainstorming ideas for a topic. I have been on a Colossal drawing kick, even before that contest. So I definitely need to get away from that. I am due for another dragon lol
