hey weapon--i htink you have a nice piece in the works here. my thoughts--

Bg is good, ship design is simple yet original and cool

the inside of the shop is lacking more details lik etools, etc. maybe some people in the foreground ( workers, mechanics) would add some interest,
the perspective is a little off on the "wing" of the racer

good job --keep posting!!!---ty

Thx for comments. I'll keep that stuff in mind on the next one, trying to do more to learn new things.

i love the design. did you do that in photoshop or with traditional paints?
i agree with the above comment. i think if you had hoses for air tools hanging from above or some sort of docking station for your ship that would add alot of interesting background subject matter.

I like the concept here :) thats a cool idea. I really like the racing craft design. I do have some quibbles :) with it though. The perspective really needs some work as a whole, not just on the craft. Its most noticeable on the background. It just looks flat, like the outside area is a painting on that door. The environment for some reason gives me the feeling of being on a farm, or at a carnival, not at a futuristic race track, almost like these vehicles are from the future in a modern day environment. Why is there a traffic light inside the building? I would think that would be at the start of the track if anywhere. The little signs on the side of the road arent really where they belong. Signs indicating driection are usually located at a sharp turn to warn people so they dont crash. You did a good job with the secondary lighting from the engine and the green light. I think that you did a really good job with this, there are just those little things that catch my eye.

Fisa- thx, I'll keep in mind to make other parts of pics interesting. I am glad you like the body design. It's done in Photoshop.

PandaWhipper- Hey, thx for feedback. It does look like a carnival lol...I don't think of these things as I paint, now I will. I will work on my perspective, always am, and atmospheric perspective.

Appreciate it.
