Hello All,
my 6 years old son is a great DSG-fan.
Today he forced me to post his pic. I hope it's OK ??

I just scanned the pic, set the layers, and helped him with the shadows.
The rest is his own work in PS 6!!!

Here some descriptions from him:
-with the boxingglove at the back of the iron-space-bug he can repel attacks.
-He eats space trash!
-At the front of the iron-space-bug you can see a rocket launcher to shoot and destroy enemies.
>:D
(His words, his prefered smily)

Jorn -> Nice gelatinous look there!
Ixari -> Really cool design, got the feel of how an insect body might evolve in zero gravity.

[Jorn]

Thanks Harvey , btw yours rocks ! ( i like the color scheme alot , as well for the design )

[Ixari]

Thanks you two.

Harvey - not sure about the wings and all ( I NEARLY put some on mine but i remember about the air) but i love the upper part of this insect. Really buggish. Cool.

Jorn - Sketchy and..weird. But cool. The thing looks a bit wrong in the head though.

Strippo - Your kid's sure developing some digital art skills at a young age. I couldnt do anything quite like that at his age lol. Tell him im really impressed with his cool drawing.

It's probably the most detailed picture i've done. It took about 10 hours of solid work to make, because of inexperience, i guess.

[SlugMan]

I love this topic!!! I made a game called "Dave Invaders" based on Space Invaders, and the pixel art below was my programmer art version of the badguy who went across the top of the screen. You'd get big bonus points for shooting him. I used it as my reference and inspiration. This was a fun break from anatomy tutorials and Drizzledome work.

nephilim, Jorn, Ixari - Thank you very much, you've made someone very lucky :wink:

nephilim - He want to draw a plan for you, how you can build one :wink:
(want to sent you per email)

Ixari - thx, I told him and he is very inspired now. Yes, it's amazing how fast and handy he is at the PC (he will soon earn my money :wink: ). After I told him what is ment with "it rocks" I have to say that your work rocks, too!!! He love it!

aprat, Ashen - He like yours, too...they rock :teeth:

[nephilim]

strippo tell your so that would be awesome, ill show it everyone i know.

[Ashen]

^_^'

Strippo... tell him his work rox and to keep it up!!!

The rest of you, really, that was a pretty poor effort... I mean, you just drew bugs from space, I drew the only real SPACE BUG! MWAHAHAHAHA! (*jkz*)

Actually, these are all pretty cool... I just thought it might be fun to take the concept a little too literally.

Cheers All.
Ashims.
