Different ship designs???

Thanks to all you for contibuting to this post. Keep them coming. I hope to post some pics, but I'm kind of new and need a bunch more posts.
 
^^^You can't post pictures until you have a certain number of posts. I think it's to prevent spamming by people who sigh-up just to promote something. You have to earn your wings, so to speak.
 
Did anyone look at my pencil drawings in my photobucket?

My fav ones i did are the ones after Tenchi Muyo/Universe Characters :)
 
Spockrocks, awesome thread you've started! And welcome to the board.:)
As far as tools, any improptu sketchpad, your favorite pen/pencil, a decent flatbed scanner, a cheapo wacom (bamboo, etc.) and any decent piece of software (I use an ancient copy of photoshop I bought years ago, Gimp is nice, I guess it depends whether you are more
comfortable working with Raster or Vector "engines"....). I tend more towards the raster pixel editors, anything that features Layers....
Here's some stuff I dug up, crude WIP's in various states of abandonment...:) Some older, some newer, some recently inspired...
As I said, CRUDE...I like seeing rough scribbly napkin sketches and embryonic ideas...

There are stories and reasonings behind this batch of uploaded muck...odd bits of fantasy and drunkedness on my part, mostly. :)
Main thing is to share art and ideas, thoughts and musings (which I don't do enough)...
Looking forward to seeing your projects.

These are so awesome! If you have more stuff like this, I'd certainly love to see it.

I myself have a binder full of various sketches that I have been planning to post, but wanted to first refine them, darken the lines, and fill up any blank spaces. Most are probably not ready for scanning yet.
 
JudeXavier- I love your "Slab Viper" idea. Combines the best trait of Bryan Singer's Mk IV Viper and Buck Rogers' Thunder fighter.

As for your "Wing Thing" design, I could easily see it as a Romulan Bird of Prey from the JJ-verse.
 
That Slab viper is great. Were the Galactica to have returned to Earth in the timpe period of Buck Rogers in the 25th century--I can see this design. Heck, a lot of props and model work were used by both.
