Hello, This is my first entry :)

I did a litlle work on the composition of my landscape and about the color scheme.
The characters will be on the foreground, two ronins and a nacelle with two carriers.

update.

Hehe, quite a twist there :)
I really like the last one. I like the movement and energy in the image.

Maybe I would make it a bit more dramatic by adding darker shadows, rain?
The blue light might look good on the buildings also (the stations i presume).

Keep going!

This is really an interesting ship and environment design. Very cool! Are you going to keep the picture cropped like this, or is this just a detail from the larger view you posted in post #4? I hope you'll use the larger view, the background was really impressive in it. Good luck!

hx for replies and advices guys.

Walrus> yes It was just a close up, i will use the larger view. ;)

Mumphy> Yes i'll add somme dramatical effects like you said, some smokes and darker atmosphere i think.

I worked on the background, there is still a lot of work here, i will try the blue light on the buildings like you suggest Mumphy.

I also realized tha i may have to increase the vertical size of the pic.

Looks very interesting, very different from the rest. I like the background and ship design.
Until now all looks great. Keep going.

I worked a little on the backroung and begun to add some ships.

I also increased the vertical size of the image to have some air for the motherships.

I post it as "line art" milestone because it is the final composition (i guess), and i did'nt use traditionnal line art.

Snowman: thanks for encouragement ;)
