Description
Finally finished this pictureKind of an idea I had of the sombra war turning into a drawn out war that eventually leads to advances in technology as both sides fall into a stalemate
A LOT of experimenting with this picture, never used these color pallets, haven't drawn tanks much, or drawn fire with explosions much so it was quite the new experience
Hopefully it looks alright, I know of like how some of the smaller details turned out
EDIT:not sure if it's DA's servers but nobody can see this image unless you zoom in, guess we'll have to see if something changes later :/

That tank is quite accurate as a model 1 with the long guns. One thing though is that the WW1 tanks did not have a cupola and so you couldn't stick your head out to see. Also nobody ever wanted to be on the outside of the tank in battle as they were massive magnets for artillery.

Thanks ^^
Things are going alright, wish I could be more productive so I could get more merchandise ready for Bronycon this year. Stressing out a bit, hope sales go alright this year

Hope it goes well for you. What's bronycon like?
π: 0 β©: 1
it's stressful for me as a vendor
Well all the prep beforehand is, gotta guess what merch people want and how much money to sink into printing
But the actual con it's self is pretty crazy, pretty much everyone from around the world shows up to it. So there's upsides to going to a large con and downsides
Lots to do, but there's also MASSIVE lines to the major things
But I've never talked to someone who's gone and hasn't enjoyed it

I'd would go if it was closer to me. Lacking a car prevents me from traveling and the cost to travel too.

ya I have to fly everywhere, the only reason I can afford to go is because I'm vending

I like how you choose the MK1 for this, the brits will be pleased with your attention to detail! XD

I know it's noisy in here, get your head down and close that hatch! Β Going deaf is better than the shrapnel out there!

...Damn....Just...Wow....;-;Β
This is pure amazing....
There are no words ;-;

I hate it when people spawn with the fat heavy tank and sit all alone in there. Landship for the win!

lol I actually haven't played much BF1, it's just a little too pricey for me right now
I just like the look of the old Mk4 tank
π: 0 β©: 1
oh it's suppose to be based off the Mk4, mostly cuz that was the most mass produced version
But pretty much the only really noticeable difference from each type is that the Mk1 had the wheels on the back and the rest didn't

Only the Mark I-III had canons like that.
Also, the reference you used is undoubtedly a MK1: ( vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/b⦠)
Note the steering tail.

"Forward!" Captain Pinkie Pie yells, her voice barely audible over the shrill whistle of the shells, the explosions, and the loud hum and clunking of the engines. Her tank, 113 "Ace of Spades" advances steadily under the expert touch of her driver even as the large caliber guns on her sides do their best to topple her with each loud explosive shot.
"It's getting messy in that direction, Cap!" The earth pony at the controls yells, his voice rough from the engine fumes and the smoke. "Perhaps we should find another way to the rally?"
"No!" Pinkie shouts, popping back down into the inside of the tank. "We can't stop now, the infantry is counting on us to spearhead this attack."
"I know, Cap," The earth pony, who is tan and white painted horse under the mud and grime. "But Sombra's artillery is getting heavier, and as tough as this ol' gal is, we're running the risk of becoming a target."
"I don't care, my sister and Dash are out there," Pinkie growls, silencing the next protest from the driver. Turning to her gunners, she nods to a pegasus who had lost a wing like Dash. "Private Sky," she looks to a unicorn who is pulling a shell from the rack, "Corporal Shard. Point the guns forward, we're going to break through the advance if it kills us."
"I hope it doesn't kill us!" Shard replies, her voice low for a mare as she rolls her cigarette from one side of her mouth to the other. It's thankfully unlit. "I've got a poker game to get to once we take this town!"
"Y-Yeah," Sky chuckles nervoisly, her single wing fluttering in unease. "And I kinda want to see my ma again..."
"We'll make it, ladies," Pinkie says gently before turning to the driver. "Full steam ahead, Lieutenant." She then grabs her rifle from where she had stowed it. "I'm going back up, lets show Sombra just what Equestrian Steel can do!"Β

This actually makes me really happy
I'm not much of a writer, but it would be cool to see a fanfic of this
π: 0 β©: 1
Honestly, I am tempted to write one.
Perhaps when I am done with my current comission I can write it as a cool-down fic before I dive back into the main storyline I am writing in my major stories.
π: 0 β©: 1
it would make for some pretty intense fanfic, you do a pretty good job making it seem pretty grim
But I'm kind of thinking of doing a few other WW1 styled crystal war pics, I at least need to draw a "buy war BonBons" propaganda poster xD
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh yes, BonBon selling War Bonds would be awesome xD

In photoshop you have a histogram under Window. If you add a "Curves" adjustment layer you also have a histogram in the background.

ahhh okay
There's a lot of tools I still have no idea about on photoshop, cuz I'm just teaching myself how to use it

That tank looks like pretty well protected, I'm going to say this battle is resembling the war against King Sombra
Very nice
