Description
A 90 minute ship design exercise done in one of my livestreams by request. Started with the ship in the farground, then chopped it up to make the carrier.A large ship carrying troops, vehicles, mechs and supplies moves through space with escorts. A small dropship launches, large enough to transport several vehicles or a mech.

I get a distinctly homeworld feel from this...~ALL THE VAGYR!~

I like Homeworld.

Nice. Firm and blocky and its center of mass is close enough to the main engines to give it some maneuverability.

Very cool! I like how you used the different shades of grey to make a good speed painting. I wish I could have seen the livestream. How many different shades would you say you used, 15?

Many more, I didn't try to work within a limited pallet. Any indication of limited shades is artifacting caused by overlay brushing and levels adjustments, along with certain other brushes effects.

Clearly not rated for entry or gravity wells of sorts.

Very cool. I'm busy with a ship almost similar to the one at the bottom at the moment. I really like these designs

Nice, it looks like it could pack a whole army

Quite a large force yes, but taking or defending a planet is a larger task than just a single country so multiple ships like this would be needed to attack a properly defended planet.

But itΒ΄s enough troops to board quite a few ships! I like the massive, clunky and heavy appearence of it.

Yeah, I'd call this a sketch though it obviously has painted elements. All done in B&W with a levels adjustment at the end which adds a hint of color.

I see - its just that one does not see so many B&W art - that is the sign of a superb artist for its a brave medium to play with!
Bravo

Lol, yeah I like turning back the clock a bit on modern commonplace aesthetics, but I definitely ain't no "rocket ship" guy
