Artist's Comments

It's really too late. But I imagine they would scramble every thing they have, even if a handful of interceptors Won't change the course of the Hiigaran battle.

I really want to fix the sky, the figures, and add some visible light fixtures and loading equipment.But I've hit my limit on how long I spend on one painting before my efficiency drops through the floor and I start pulling my hair out.

Took about 5-7 hours broken over 3 sitting. Done on PS CS3 I liberal use of color dodge and horrible techniques. C & C welcome.

edit> Fixed a couple of things, mainly the lighting, composition, and background. Took about 2-3 hours, slowly pecking away at it. Hope you like the new engine color dodge :D

Ah, you sound like me when I talk about my art. The extra time is a bit much when you're working, but it pays off.

I like this one. Conveys a nice sense of action, though I'd do a little blurring around the people, as they do look a bit stagnant as they are. Very good work! :)

Hmm nice work man.

I think the main thing that is hurting this is the composition. Everything about the image is making me want to look out the doors and see some epic sky with stuff happening, but that space is cutoff leaving the image feeling very lacking. So i think that this would benefit from a much wider horizontal composition. Well imo anyways :).

Keep it up.

Hmm I am not well versed in composition. What do you mean a 'wider horizontal composition'? I did want to work more on the sky, you can sort of see the final battle with the two motherships in orbit, but I didn't think it should be the main focus.

Thank Talros! I think I abused the color dodge tool a bit too much though, heh.

I just meant to make the image wider to the right hand side.

Paintover.
