This is my first post, I am just looking for some feedback.

That's a wild design. It would be interesting to see different angles of it to get a better feel for the way the craft is shaped. Nice design.

Pretty. What's the concept? Looks like a mad electrician built it from metal conduit and junction boxes :D

Love to see more in this style.

this is cool. for some reason it makes me think "mechanical suppository".

but seriously if this is your first post, could you post some other designs?

[wallychairmover]

and include some detail shots, nice closeups of that zany mechanical kebobery would be nifty

Thanks for the comments! I like the mad electrician idea mearrin69. This is my first post, but it won't be my last I have more to post.

I don't know if I can send any closeups of this ship wallychairmover. This drawing is shown larger then it was drawn at. The original is only 6 inches long. so if I blow it up a lot it could get pretty grainy. I may try a super high res scan to see if the results are worthy. If so I will post some close-ups.

thanks again

Like the others said, cool with all those details.

Observations:

When doing (almost) symetrical things, it works well to mirror it along an axis (digitally, xeroxed or traced).

It's quite monotoned on not very contrasted. There's a little room for contrast and color I think.

Perpsective looks more bent on the middle sections.

Brilliant! I would hate to be the be the person having to model this in 3D, the amount of detail is incredible.

I like the designs you have been posting, one comment I have overall is that you add so much detail that there are few places for the eye to rest so then look busy. perhaps experimenting with more of a balance between small intricate details and then larger less cluttered areas will add more visual contrast to your designs and they will become stronger concepts.

Thanks Android.
I agree with your observation. I do have a habit of continuing to add and add bits and pieces. I like detail, but detail, just for the sake of detail is of little or no use. I will keep your suggestions in mind.

thanks. ps: I have really enjoyed your daily portraits. great dedication.

Whoooooa!!!
I love the detail!
I'd like to see some zoomed parts.
