Description Hey there

Just mucking around here - it's the same old story with this piece, 400m high spider mechs invade Earth, cause trouble, army try to stop them...

Anyway, the image took about 70 minutes of badly drawn strokes and messing about - it's ok - more fun to paint than it is to look at to my eyes!

Original res 5000 pixels (wide)
Painted in PS CS3
Intous 3 Tablet

I hope you are all ok out there!

Love the way the blurring effect makes it seem as if there is a real sense of urgency about this picture!

You get a real sense of motion in this piece. I can believe that a battle is raging around - catching glimpses of the grotesque before it flashed past.

this is NOT a speed paint its really good anyway. (the spidermech is a real life robot/mech too!) i like how you had the perfect angle too look draw it at with also the blur effects of a moving camera giving you the sense if this was a real picture this would be took by a moving solider. Keep up the awesome work!

The sense of motion in this piece is what makes it so astounding. I feel like I'm moving (or the painting is moving) whenever I look at it. I wouldn't even know where to start when it comes to making a stationary image look like it's vibrating or moving at immense speeds. Wow.

I never thought that you could make such great graphics in a picture using only a blotchy style.

I must find out your secret. For this is epic.

Excellent work. Great style, framing and dramatic movement.

Spider robots always remind me of Masamune Shirow's Appleseed.

Certainly conveys the chaos and bewilderment of battle! A clearer point to focus on would be nice, but in a battle, you can't focus on anything, you're just trying to stay alive.

I love the sense of movement into the battle. the bright fading colors give it a sense of foreboding, as if the inevitable is upon them. another interesting note is that apparently earth fails because the army has nothing larger than a tank for this battle. what a pity.

nice atmosphere, but I would use a bit less motion blur, some of it to give a sense of motion is good, but this one is just a bit too blurry, makes it hard to find a focal point...

Wow! There's quite a tangible feeling of motion in this drawing! Maybe it's just that my eyes are tired, but if i put a bit of imagination, i can definitely feel like moving into the action! And spider robots are so cool!
