Oh wow... huh... it does look like Amaterasu. lulz. I didn't mean for that to happen... It's supposed to be a different ship... mostly a battleship.

What's with that writing in the bottom left? Otherwise that's really nice - maybe I should post some of my drawings one day...I'd be hard pressed to come up with something like that, but I believe I can draw like that. I'm crap at faces, though (Except eyes...).

Thanks!

What's with that writing in the bottom left?

That's because of the poor quality paper I did it on. It's something like a computer log dump from ten years ago or so... I really need to keep the spare paper drawer cleaner.

That is awesome!  But is there any particular reason his visor is shatered?

Besides that it's very good, it's also very "clean".  :yes:
I wonder how fast it was for you to do it.
Title: Re: Ahar. Distraction + Pencil = Sketchy Art

Probably got smashed on a console when he was hit.
Title: Re: Ahar. Distraction + Pencil = Sketchy Art
Post by: esarai on April 13, 2009, 08:34:35 pm
@Everybody: Thank you!
@Titan:  I don't really know... In canon FS, it never seemed like they did. The one in the photo is my own little twist on Terran pilot helmets. This one never opens, allowing pilots to eject and still survive. This dude is kinda f**ked now.
@Titan & Retsof: Titan's pretty close there. Missile/flak went off and he busted the visor on ... something. Still haven't figured out how he did it, just seemed to fit. Might've hit his head on that cockpit strut there, or have a busted harness, letting him hit the console.
@peterv: Face took about a half-hour. Everything else took about.... three... I think.

Wouldn't he have cuts on his face if glass was just slammed into it? Other than that, EPIC WIN.

You're absolutely right. That, along with floating shards of glass, is something I intend to add when I color this.

It was Photoshop CS2. I did a freehand sketch and colored over that... so I guess yeah you could call it freehand.

If that was normal length that would make a good HTL Orion (Fifth model? :P).
But I looked at the Chibi Orion next to a regular Orion...I like the Chibi Orion more.

Well, once I get the chance, I might do some animated battle sequences or what not.  And there are a few ships I think could use a pretty cool tech ani/dedicated intro cutscenes.
