madscuzzy Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Many years ago, I did this little image, and have to admit, it resonated with me. Ever since, I have been wanting to do another one, but never got around to doing it. Anyways, I did do up a new one, sans colour...:P http://scuzworks.com/SL40K/ART/speeder.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Taurus Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I'ts great. The crew's pose reminds of the 2.Ed illustrations, since I am pretty nostalgic for that edition that is a good thing to my mind. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zincite Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Very very cool, it'd be hard to tell this apart from a picture from a codex. A little niggle though... the 'burst' from the heavy bolter looks a little unrealistic at the base of the explosion, all jagged-y. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madscuzzy Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 Added another speeder. Any suggestions on a better background colour? http://scuzworks.com/SL40K/ART/speedercol.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Nice! I like it as it is, but if you prefer a different colour in the background how about... red? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Xeones Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 That's a very nice start! Adding that second speeder is also a good idea. As far as the background color goes, I'd definitely stick with the warmer pallette you seem to be leaning towards already. If I were you, I'd intensify some of the background areas by pulling in some of the colors you have going on in the exhaust plume. Also, I realize you aren't finished or anything, but I'd suggest that you deepen the shadows toward the back of the speeder, gradually getting lighter as you come forward to the nose. I think it will help you give more of a feeling of forward motion as the eye is drawn toward the front of the speeder. Here is a quick example of what I'm suggesting. Perhaps it's a bit too cartoonish for what is (so far) a very reserved shading and color scheme? I'm in no way trying to take this project away from you, but to merely show you what I mean since I'm not sure my explanation alone would suffice to communicate what I'm trying to suggest. Again, great work so far. I've never bothered to post in one of your threads, but always enjoy seeing your work when you share it with us. <_< --Xeones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgernstein Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 That is awesome... The only way it could be more awesome was if the driver/pilot (i never know what to call them) was firing a bolt pistol at something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
