INKtober 2014 entries.

So this year I thought that I would have ago at the INKtober challenge of 31 drawings over the 31 days of October. it wasn't till around day 10 that I realised just how out of practice I had become with my drawing skills. When I had done them all I decided to have a little play in windows movie maker to see how it compares to iMovie HD that I am used to.

 

 

Out of the two programs I pre-fare iMovie HD but that could just be that I am used to it.

USS Macross NX-74916

Following the Dominion War, the federation decided to drastically re-think their policy of exploration. As a result several members of the ASDB begin looking at creating a new class of starship designed more for defence on the frontier and to reinforce the Bajorian Sector in case the Dominion decided ignore the peace treaty, this ship would be more along the lines of the Defiant Class starship that had proven do versatile during the war.

This class was also designated to act as a command and control ship for the new Valkyrie-class and Thunderbolt Veri-tech type fighter, developed on the USS Voyager http://robotech1984.deviantart.com/art/Thunder-flash-Mk3-136575400 as well as a full range of shuttles and other support ships, in both fleet and individual missions.

Copyright I don't own either Star Trek, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, Robotech or Macross. This is based off the SDF 1 from Macross designed by Kazutaka Miyatake equipped with two ARMD carriers, the background is a piece by is by John Eaves for the Star Trek ships of the line calendar for the enterprise-e shuttle bay, http://johneaves.wordpress.com/2011/05/05/the-enterprise-e-shuttle-bay-from-the-sotl-calendar/planetv-scape-2/

This was created after watching wayyy to much Robotech/ Macross and Deep Space Nine.

Something New for the New Year

Happy New Year to all that read this. So what Have I been up to recently well, I've been working on writing up the first five chapters of a new story titled 'The Gate and The Angel' which is a crossover story between the worlds of Robotech/ Macross in the universe of Battlefortress Archangel and the Stargate SG1 and later the Atlantis.

 

Also I've been working on getting my software back online on my new laptop that I got for Christmas, the problem is I'm having to convert back to PC from Mac, not that there is much of a difference in the two systems now days, and building up my traditional  skills and designing some images to  increase my portfolio.

 

Well that's it for now I'll leave my followers with a image that I've done recently, A Robotech/ Macross inspired take on the USAF Deadalus from Stargate universe.

 

(Deadlus Class Mk2)

 

 

The design of it is based on a number of sources mostly Robotech/ Macross, Stargate, Command and Conquers GDI Kodiak, Gundam 00 with a hint of Space Battleship Yamamoto/ Starbalzers.

Quick and Dirty work

A quick and dirty piece which is all digital, and as I haven't done any drawing, traditional or digital in ages, I feel like I'm back at high school I feel that it is ok, will be replacing with a clean version when it's done.

Sketch book work, and cityscape.

Sorry for the long wait for an update, but I have had a lot on my mind and very little time for drawing or accessing the internet, but after a long time away from the internet.


Please enjoy these images that I have done on my way to work on a bus.

In this bottom picture it is not clear but their is a mixture of shading and colours.


I will take any and all comments on these piece's and act on them.
