New Art: "Moving Target" and "Valkyrie"

Post by Rayhawk » Tue Dec 11, 2007 8:32 am

Among the many things sitting in the queue for the next big site update are two more desktop artworks, so I thought I'd sneak-preview them here and see if they sparked any comment:

wow, very nice.

The moving target made me laugh out loud, I will probably be adding at least one of them as an item in my next Brikwar.

The Valkyrie picture is badass, and the boob pieces were funny as well. Also the big brick clouds were a nice touch.

I actually liked the boob pieces better when they weren't studs. Oh well. I do understand the change.

For the painting, I think the studs give better composition density, and they're funnier besides. But I agree, as a physical element, I'd rather have the pre-studs version. So when I shop the concept around to Red Bean or whomever, I'll use the earlier version.

I'd just like you to know, "Moving Target" is now my desktop background, and will probably stay there for some time.

And I'm not even going to say anything to contribute to the conversation here... I would need to stop laughing in order to do that.

Once again I cannot believe people can be this good at art. And on a semi-related note, someone needs to draw up some stats for the Valkyrie. I can't do it because I'm still making up stats for my army.

Once you're depending on art to put food in your mouth, you'd be suprised how fast you get better.

I love your style, most importantly how easily you combine bricks with minifigures and give usually bricklike objects curved appearances

Awesome. Those aren't my favourites from your works, but they show that you still have your talent :wink:

I almost laughed when I saw Valkyrie. It's great, you've got the touch of BrikWars there. Moving Target is more positive picture, if you ask me. It's makes me smile every time I look at it. I could put that to my desktop.

The moving target looks so happy! Too bad he will die.
