as some of you may be aware, i've been experimenting with photoshop with various results..
i'll cut to the chase shall I?
I need a shivan render (species) side on preferably charging shoulder beam cannon, with glowy eyes and the whole shebang
oh, it also has to be around 200 - 300 dpi as it is the res i usually work at
natually i'll give you kudos for the contibution you have made.. :nod:
now, how do you make really big images small using html?
-
i'll show you what i mean.
Note: you'll have to tilt your head to one side for this sketch

note the rough sketch of the shivan is working from memory (excuse bad proportion)

Only "official" Shivan with a charge light. Try Venom if you need another pose.

huh? why?
-
well, it doesn't really matter whether it's official or unoffical
-
if you want a shivan, it's easy enough, just grab a digital camera, call for carl, and run like hell. just make sure that you got you're life insuarance in order;) ;) ;)

Common way would be make a thumbnail of the image itself. Use the thumbnail as the link to the full sized image.

oh, I just figured out, you mean that (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,8934.0.html) guess?

well, a small update.. it's kinda snowballed, it's turned into a comic like strip, with a few freespacey things added to it.. (shivans, vasudans, that sort of thing) you'll might excuse the finished product's crappy dialogue.. i'll post the setting in a large science vess name "antaeus" i'll post the sketch up so you'll see what i mean.. :D
oh and i've decided to hand-draw the shivan.. (dunno 'bout color though)
-
Venom: Ayuh. Hadn't gotten to play with that until recently. It's VERY cool.:D
-
why thank you.
-
I dont know why, but shivans to me looks like deformed space apes. :wtf:

that's why zoom lenses come in handy.. :D

Three points:
1. What are foxes doing battling shivans?
2. Is that a spring in the knee(?) of the right leg (?) in the image of the shivan?
3. Shivans must be good at playing Twister.
...I'm looking forward to seeing some finished work on this Turnsky, nice to see some different types of work on the art board.:)

1st point all will be answered in good time, i kinda figured i'd add a "unnofficial" species to this particular freespace universe..
i.e lycanthorpes (werewolf like beings).
-
Oy...
Hmm. No comment. I'm in a fightin' mood, most likely. Exams do that.

careful russell crowe might come after ya.. :p
