Oh em gee!...It's the Outlaw Comet?
What it is-What it is,
I've been hooking up them Feng Zhu (one of my favorite artists) gnomon demo videos for the past few days ago. I think my brain is shifting form not drawing to drawing again.
So, yesterday I set out to try an draw a vehicle that didn't look like shiet or all "clumped"! I did Feng's method mixed with stuff I knew already, with blue lead instead of 10% marker, and black lead instead of ink. And I must say, it was the hardest non-school thing I have done by myself drawing. It's a love/hate thing... I hate how tedious it can be to make a perspective drawing work (It took me one whole day to pump this out!). I love the new info I get from the drawing, writing notes when I draw. Plus when one part of it that works my first few tries I get all happy.
I'm still WAY too slow drawing stuff, and the middle to the end of the ship is off. I think I drew my perspective guide wrong somehow. On top of that, I'm heady handed, so the marker sketch thing might work better for me than blue lead. Overall I think it looks rawcore, with a little influence from feng and Outlaw Star. my thumbnail sketch w/ perspective came out better than 'final sketch' somehow.

You have no idea how much I'm feeling the ship. I have little to no knowledge of mechanical things. It doesn't deter me though. The illest part is the front. For some reason it looks like it could open up and the BFG 9000 be in there. Keep that Piff coming
