Strange designs. Spaceships Pt.2

Second (and last) part of my tiny ship sketches. Won't torture you anymore with them, promise :P

Finally, a few B/W illustrations of ships in space

This is it. I'm coming back home this weekend, so I hope next week I'll be back to regular activity. I'll let you know!

Karl Franz

I'm still out of home, so this is a programmed entry again. I have painted this one the very week I'm writing this, so for you that is two weeks ago ;) (Ahhh, science...)

I used to have two Warhammer Fantasy Battles armies, Empire and Bretonnia. Sadly, some years ago all my gaming mates got rid of the game and I found myself with two armies using lots of space. I had to take the decision to let both armies go...

I only kept for myself a Bretonnian Knights unit (some day I'll bring it to you) and this one, Emperor Karl Franz. The mini really needed some repaint work, so this is what I got:

 

Shiny metals

Oldschool Griffon. I cannot stand the current mini

The Emperor himself had this looks:

 

Beard added for dramatic purposes

 

I tried something different for the banner, I thought it would be nice seeing an actual Imperial Eagle (in an oldschool fantasy way)

 

This is an Imperial Eagle, not that thing WH40K uses

The final result:

The Emperor. No further explanation needed

This has brought some love for fantasy back to me, maybe it is time I begin to think a little more seriously about some fantasy projects I have in mind...

Strange designs. Spaceships Pt.1

Hiya all! Wandering through my files and folders I found a collection of drawings and sketches made some time ago for a project I embarked on and which I was shamely unable to fulfil. :(

It is just a collection of space ships. I had no guidance at all, so I just let myself go and drew whatever came to mind, under the single premise of designing small fighter ships.

They are all rough sketches, don't expect any quality work here. I had all kind of inspirations, from the obvious Star Wars and Star Trek to the pulp comics of old, Buck Rogers or Flash Gordon, going even through some Japanese-ish lines in some of them. Very cartoony all of them.

So be warned, just amateur sketches made on the back side of work paper (shhhh) and quick phone pics, keep your expectations low...

 

 

Next week I'll bring you another mini and later on the second part of this insanity:)
