thanks!
Here is some more work on the mothership. Not really happy with it at all going to take it back to the drawing board once again!
-
Managed to pretty much finish the mirror, I just created the basic shape then a huge grid of repeated polygons spit into small triangles and intersected it all, deleting all the crap around the edges.
I guess you can go about it a few ways but as far as speed I couldn't think of anything quicker.
Im pretty pleased with the mirror as I think it will give something different to the final drawings, fingers crossed! I think everybody can agree its better than the one in the last post!

Started work on the matter-antimatter storage holds. With a little help from Taff Goch it saved me a bit of a headache constructing the sphere!
-
Did a lot more work on the lattice structure that holds the matter-antimatter storage tanks to the engines and the rest of the ship.
Good job for layers thats all I can say! Something like 2012768 faces right now.It could be cleaner but as this is going to be an illustration technique finished piece it doesn't matter about excess geometry.
Its pretty tedious and slow work right now making cables etc, luckily I made each quater as a component so only have to do 1/4th. Gone are the good old days where I was naive about groups/components thank God!
-
Well enough for now, busy week in work so doubt I will have any time to continue. Until next week goodbye!
-
Looking good!
Just how big is that thing?
-

OMG isn't that the ISV Venture Star ? Looks awesome !

Hey Liam! Long time no see.
I'm really liking your modeling. What do you do for your textures?
Do you paint them in PS or just download them?
-
They are all painted mate.

All the more magnificent.

As a great fan of the alien movie and the Ridley Scott I was really inspired lately by first info about the newest movie called Prometheus. So decided to make some pictures before the movie will be well known or they'll release the trailer.
This is my vision of the first human expedition send to discover the unknown mysterious race called the navigators or space jockey. The same organizm was foundf in the derelict spaceship at the beginning of the alien movie. This planes is dead for millenia and should look really different and alien. Its a quiet quick image, wanted to keep it rough and atmospheric.
All done in photoshop, the amazing desing of the landing module was created by Liam Keating, thanks.

Hi Liam, your art is inspiring to someone like me who is only just starting out to do this art for fun, I discovered Sketchup a few months ago and have not looked back. I like sci fi and like drawing it for fun, recently I started using Kerkythea for rendering my pictures and received some good feedback, however they keep mentioning post production enhacement of final pics,you are the first person i have come across that has in some way managed to give me some idea of what this is about, and your work is fantastic without doing any rendering. I managed to save your information on using photo shop to enhance my drawings, I will try again to improve them following your advice and see where I end up lol. I have submitted a picture to the WIP area and wait for moderator to approve, please have a look sometime when it gets there and let me know what you think, any advice would be greatly appreciated, any updated info or links you may have would be gold for me atm, cheers and please keep posting your work, I need all the inspiration i can get.
