Great work Scio!

I think it's maybe a little too long, but i do like the mixture.

Maybe have the shatter around the RG instead of all below it? I'm not sure if that will look any good, but try it.

I am with Alaska on this one. Maybe re-arrange the fractals and cut the longest one?

It's still a bit hard to read but it's a clear improvment. And it looks awesome.

Very good, but does anyone else think it'd look better on its side?

Sorry to break in the logo discussion

Did a little brain storming on one possible direction the spaceship building can take: Mechanic.

Well the ship hull is generic and can be changed to anything, but what’s important is the system.

Fed by a fusion plasma reactor (Generator) it uses the magnetic energy to thrust and to create antigravity field on planet surfaces. All of that needs to be cooled so the Heat is then transferred to cooling and exchanges with outside space which is the coolest place in the ship (absolute zero). Such radically different temperatures are also used to produce gas flow and water used through the ship for organic purposes.

On the sides I have the cryo-cameras doodles (Top Right) and plasma storage (Bottom Left)

Finally something interesting! (sorry Scio

I assume it's an exploration ship? There are no signs of cargo hauling or storages, or any military equipment.

Its just a "prototype" =). The way it looks can vary, but the idea was to show the energy-propulsion system. I could get it to have weapons, or have cargo sections, or both. =) Doesnt change the way it will move.

In any case: excellent.

By the way, I have a challenge for you Gotrol.

I'd like to see you try a creature. You don't have to be fantabulous first try. I'd just like to see it. You're a fantastic artist, but I'd like to see a little boundry pushing.

Thanks for the positive feedback- i've got another one in the works that's in landscape format.

Hehehe, I have already, like a week ago.

I will sure do more. =D

Alright, suggestions:

The musculature is... Awkward at best and invisable at worst. Even a slug has muscles! Come up with the skeleton and musculature as you design, and the result should feel much more natural.

Your creatures look very unstable, balance them out.

It's unclear how some of these guys fit into niches. Experiment with that a little.

=) I went with a more artistic look on things.... not Scientific, will correnct that thought.

They just fit into my "quick drawing style" aka this http://gotrol.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d31f7a6

I intended them to be like sharks... with cartilage and a mix between insects and smth else.... because on a low grav world you dont need strong muscles nor bones.

I will do more as I have said. =) Criticism is welcome.

Are you sure you sent the right link? Cause what I saw was something more like this than anything else.

Yeah its the right link. =) I did my animals in reference to my regular art style.... I dont know if that makes sense...

Anyhow, I dont stand any close to Jheronimus Bosch at all ahhaha, I'm so far behind him that you cant even say it looks alike =P.

Back on topic, I'll do more science based animals soon.

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhh. Okay. Mistook what you meant.

In any case, you're certainly better at some things than he is. Like avoiding acid. Don't do drugs kiddies.

Acid? Like this? http://gotrol.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d31f905 ahahhaah just kidding, I dont need it. =D

By the way, I doubt he did acid... he died in 1516, but maybe acid is that old... %) A real revolutionary he was.

Of course! I was joking!

And btw, totally hanging that on my infant's wall. Screw pastells.(sp?)

Lol yeah, kids need a different approach nowadays, but this pic is old, I'm no longer happy with it =(. I need to do smth savage!

Anyhow we created too much flood on this thread.

PS spelling's good.... from a russian's point of view.

Why not a epic space battle? Perhaps a member of a machine race?

That would be cool. Oh, or maybe an asteroid hitting a large town.

Hey, here's another scrap creature I drew a while back :
Tree anenomy

These cweird creatures are quite unusual. They live on a low gravity planet at tree tops where they grap branches/truncs with their four muscular tentacles. They hide underneith leaves to not be spoted by prey and feed on small plying organisms that they grap with it's long tentacles. If in danger, they will inhale helium from the planet's atmosphere and float away like a hot air baloon and will find a new place to hang on.

Nifty Critter, you are in your way of creating a whole new sea biosphere =)
