the first sketch concept, an enormous future city viewing from maybe the last natural place. on the hill standing a nomad with a horse.

another idea, a group of bandits that passing from farm to farm, destroying the fram and it harvest, now it's the time of this farm, knowing thanks to his huge windmills. the bandits strikes again with thier powerfull machine that rise to hundreds of metters to the sky, controlling by those thief, uproot windmills from the ground and burning the field.

another idea.
this desert ones was an ocean, time pass and the ocean dried.
the ship that was drowned in the see of course now it stuck in the middle of the desert. in front a nomad and his camel observe this strange view.

just a quick colors and shadows.

Hi, nice mood you got there. If I may make a suggestion I'd go for a more wide and 'open' canvas, to emphasize the fact that it's in a large desert. This looks to much like a closed space I think. Add some space to both size (and place the ship off-centre) to make the scene more massive and spectacular.

It's going to be hard to stand out between the large amount of crashed/stranded (space)ships scenes, but good luck!

[ori@r.a.m]

thank you for the great advice :) i did thought of an option to make the width larger, i'll try to see how it will go... tnx again :)

[Bitter Cheese]

I like the idea, I agree with the landscape format suggestion, I'd also suggest making the nomad/camel grouping smaller within the overall picture to help implying the large size of the ship. Also, maybe if the camel was standing more 7/8ths to the picture plane. Good start and good luck.

[Arctis]

Hey,

Good idea, very poetical.
I think it would be more spectacular if the character and his camel were much smaller. The fact that they would be very small on the foreground, while the boat would still be huge at the background, would give an impressive scale to the boat.

[ori@r.a.m]

thank you both for the suggestion :) i'll soon make another sketch to see how it will look.

hey guys, another sketch just changing some things, making the ship larger to get more spectacular view.

[henryzjetsam]

hello ori, it's good at ur final sketch, but people can't see the nomad n camel, maybe u have to larger a bit. :) can''t wait to see the coloring wip. rock on dude.

[Arctis]

That's much better ; now I suggest you 2 things. These small characters could be placed on another dune than the ship, a dune closer to us. The effect will be to add distance between characters and the ship,that will look even bigger, and to fill a bit the empty space at the bottom of the pict.
Second thing : remove these clouds : they are so defined that they interfere with the boat.
It is very important to keep a hierarchy in a picture : the most important is the most defined.
Good luck !

[ori@r.a.m]

thanks again :) Arctis great advice.
another sketch is on the way ..

[Ducklator]

interesting idea... keep it up man..!!:thumbsup: I'll wait for the coloring...

i think this is the final sketch and i'll start with the coloring now..
just make the ship a more clear form.

i didn't have a lot of time this month, but i really wanna finish this so from now on it will be a non stop working :)
ok just another(and final!) sketch, i really glad with this one.. the characters are just for illustration and i think that in the final piece i will make only one, a little change in the story behind the pic, i'll tell it later.
