Originally wanted to do some kind of chase or escape scene. Drew some bikers. In case you’re wonderring the guy on the back has no head yet.

…then i was was thinking of doing some kind of elaborate cathedral-like cityscape and dropped that idea as well.

What’s going on with this thread? Every time I post something it posts it twice and in the wrong order.

#5

Repeat Post

#6

I get that problem too, sometimes anyway. You make a few posts which dont show, and then after a few hours your posts appear.

#7

trying again

#8

Decided I wanted to do a navigator messing with some kind of holagraphic map or something so I did some head sketches. possibly put her in from of a ship window with big space-scape in background. very rough.

trying again

#10

cant wait to start painting

#11

i think your are trying to shade the face by changing only lightning value of the color(but i don’t see exactly, too small images). try to use different hue, and saturation also. and focus on the anatomy of the nose and eyes, use mirror for example. i like more pencil than color. but hey, its just the beggining :slight_smile: good luck !!!:slight_smile: :thumbsup:

Decided to do some thing a bit different - a depiction of beings which send their progeny out into the universe like spores in stasis pods. I wanted to depict hundreds of these ‘pods’ decending on a planet. We’ll see where it goes from there.

#13

Basic layout so far. Just started noodling some craters into the moon. Going for a real clean, high-detail look. Going to try and do a bit every day. see you tomorrow.

#14

The moon looks great. Before you get to far, you might want to show the overall composition. Keep it comin.

#15

not much time tonight. Finished moon (I hope) and added a botchy atmosphere to my planet. Took a while to get colors right.

#16

#17

#18

#19

#20

I think there’ll be enough spaceship fight scenes going on already. Got some other direction in mind.
