This is the second final concept sheet for a ship for my graphic novel project "shadow of deimos".
This is a hybrid fighter bomber, meaning it can operate in space and in an atmosphere. Therefore it has airfoils with flaps and ailerons for air, as well as vectored gas jets for space. This particular fighter bomber is flown by the wingman (wingwoman) of the main character.
Once again, the blank windows are for technical data that I have yet to right. I will come to that later on.
Look for the fully painted illustration of this ship soon as well.
I don't use 3d models, I do these the old fashioned way, with pencil, paper and a drafting ruler, then scan them into photoshop and clean up the lines and add all the little things.
Dude, your my hero! I have been working on a project for the better part of almost 20 years and I have been going crazy illustrating it so other could see what I mean. I am in awe, if only I could do works like this to point to and show people; "This, this is how it looks!" lol You are awesome!
thanks man! wow what a complement. Let me know if you'd like any of my services to help you bring some of your ideas to life! (that's part of what I do as a concept artist).
