Description phew... heres a new painting after a long time..
This one was originally meant to be a speedpainting but in the process i lost control and continued the detailing..

Done in Photoshop CS2.
Took me about 3-4 hours.
Wacom Graphire4 used.
A reference pic for the spacecraft was used. here it is: [link]

Hope you like it.. i made it wallpaper size: 1280x1024 (my desktop size)

Amazed once again at the speed to detail ratio on this piece, it's quite something.
It's a little difficult to fathom upon first look, very alien, but I'd prefer the word creative, and it certainly has been finished to a very high standard. Awesome.

Dekus In reply to jonnydanGer [2006-11-07 06:27:57 +0000 UTC]

yea, it was the most fun part... in the 100%-mode, i could see the whole window full screen and detail it to the maximum
Thank you very much!

kheng [2006-11-06 22:19:47 +0000 UTC]

cool brushed steel / reflection effects on the pod man

the building cutting through the clouds seems a bit weird however (blurry?) or something

Dekus In reply to kheng [2006-11-07 06:29:08 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much man! yea.. the tower-thingie is blurred because the main focus is on the space-pod-thingie.. and its so far away and big that its blurred..
