Title: Some of my sketches
Post by: ShadowGorrath on September 10, 2008, 01:17:46 pm
Here are 2 of my sketches out of 4 that I intended to show ( the missing 2 are of the Ancients and of a curvy human juggernaut from one of my own imagined universes ), out of a total infinite amount of sketches and drawings that I'm too lazy to scan.

All images here lvlshotted, made by me.

Your drawings are brilliant, especially since you have drawn them without art equipment.  :yes:

Thanks. But I still think I draw badly, as I can only draw in profile.

The only problem is they look much too Shivan...

These are very nice. Try drawing all sides, they are also profiles seing from a defrent angle. :)

The top one (Magellan) looks like it was based on the GTD Orion (esp. the rear section) although it is quite a bit more slanted.

Nice.

As for side-view, try doing a top-view, maybe, then work on fleshing it out?

       EDIT - Ok my post is lame, gotta add something more.
       Try drawing in 34f view. Most concept designers design stuff in "3/4 front" which means, off and to the side. I can scan some of my crappy sketches to illustrate what I mean. Though unlike you I just sketch a bunch of simple shapes and don't add the details.

I like them, they look like some kind of terran-shivan hybrid.

Tell me which you want to see out of these: SSJ Shiva, SD Iblis, SD Serpent, SC Unnamed, NTD Tyrant classified, Stellar shroud superweapon. All original.

I'll go with . . . . Iblis

Choose only 2-3 now. I'll show the others some day later as well. If you want something drawn too, just ask, and I'll see if I can make any, as I'm constantly making random concepts at school.
Title: Re: Some of my sketches
Post by: Admiral_Stones on September 22, 2008, 09:54:03 am
In this case - SSJ Shiva, SD Iblis and Stellar shroud superweapon  :cool:
Title: Re: Some of my sketches
Post by: FreeSpaceFreak on September 22, 2008, 11:27:01 am
:eek: I'll go with the NTD Tyrant and the superweapon, but I'd love to see the others as well.
Title: Re: Some of my sketches
Post by: ShadowGorrath on September 22, 2008, 01:20:15 pm
The NTD Tyrant is just an outline that got classified by the SOC

After much lag and internet deaths ( really, got SO annoyed uploading these that I dunno. I feel like I could tear apart the SSJ Shiva ) :

The Shiva looks like it's prone to a so called 'lets-crash-an-orion-filled-with-meson-bombs-into-its-central-part-because-it-looks-fragile'-attack.
I like the Iblis, but whats up with this subliminal message? :P
Oh, and the superweapon image seems to be broken.

And wouldn't you be able to do that against a Sath? Crash a deimos/leviathan with a meson bomb onto it's weakest spot ( either tha part with the 4 claws starting, or the ass )? Though thanks, that was a rather fast reply.  :)

Now if you only joined the NTF?

Post by: Admiral_Stones on September 22, 2008, 02:07:12 pm
What I really mean is that it looks rather unproportionally thing in the middle section.

And no, the superweapon just won't show up. Can you reupload it, please?

The concepts behind the ships look cool... however you need to learn how to draw  more dynamically and learn perspective :D

It looks good, although I can't figure out how it's functioning ;7
Now where is MY sketchbook... I'd like to upload some stuff too :mad:

Am I loosing interest with these images?

New Interceptor class terran fighter, jointly created by the Terrans and Vasudans. These fighters are much faster than the Perseus, and can carry a lot of missiles, at the cost of only 1 primary gun bank. However, regardless of having weak primary firepower, this fighter has been deemed very effective most of the time.

And I apologise in advance for the maths stuff in the image. I drew this thing in my maths notebook ( like the Vassago ), but didn't bother on erasing the maths stuff from the scanned image. And I should have been doing maths than drawing it, but for some reason, the teacher didn't bother saying at all even though it.

It looks a tad Shivan and it's too long compared to its height and width. But I sure wish I could draw like that.

IMO that looks better as a Shivan Cruiser/Corvette than a Terran-Vasudan fighter.
But hey, is nice.

SSJ Shiva...

I think every FS2 fan has had a vision of the SSJ Shiva. The ultimate Shivan ship...

The Ultimate Shivan ship would be far larger than a Super Juggernaut and a Hive. I can only imagine how many Sathanes the Shivans have(much, much more than 80, I bet) so the best of all Shivan ships should, IMO, be incredibly large.

So large that, in fact, their shield can laugh at the suns it absorbs with its gravitation. Thus, it is approximately 3 trillion kilometers long. Nice.

Wouldn't it collapse under it's own gravity?

Why would it do that? It'd obviously be made of a material far stronger than anything we can comprehend.

Ok, so, while I obviously can't rival Esarai's drawing skills, I'll still be uploading the images I made. These are done in my english notebook and workbook.

Nah, I just fear that some people might find it offensive having the statue of liberty with a battlefield in a background and a ( sarcastic ) word saying "Liberty". People found the Command and Conquer: Red Alert 2 intro video offensive cause it had the statue of liberty blowing up, and while this mini-sketch isn't so "severe", there's still a risk that some might find it offensive...

And is it just me, or is this forum rarely visited, that people rarely comment on mine, Esarai's or FSF's images?
