So cool! I love watching this progress

alrighty, work deadlines out of the way for this evening so... time to get out the scalpel and do some surgery!

let's have a crack at a semi-transparent canopy. gotta figure out what a piloted cockpit looks like though.
should be fun!

Wow, that level of detail...

I had two minutes over lunch.

this card prods me slightly less now.

starting to take shape!

a little further along. cockpit is up next, so should start looking a bit better sharpened up.

really starting to pull together now!

Astounding work.. And you even chose two of my favorite ships.

mine too

shouldn't be too long until it's all finished, I'll slot it into the custom card arrangement I made earlier, should look pretty spiffy. well, that's the plan. I'll post up the high res versions if people are interested in printing them on their own.

woo! sorry for the delay folks, had to focus on submitting my doctoral thesis.

here we go, white whale version of whisper

I love your work. This is the best that I can do:

It's a TIE Punisher custom variant. 2 lower weapon pods and two shuttle pods on top, with crew bunks, ECM package, stores, and hyperdrive.

Citruscannon, your artwork is fantastic. Thanks for sharing it with us. It's amazing to see the WIP portion and how it transforms into incredible art.

Freaking Cool :-) love it!

I've run a quick mockup of how this would fit into the card scheme from before, with some minor adjustments. Had a fairly long hiatus there as I was submitting my thesis but it's all done now so I can get back to puttering around with interfaces. This one isn't quite done. I think I need to try out some alterations with this design, if I am to make it universal for all imperial cards.

Hi everyone, I've been tinkering with a new format for these cards after seeing the brilliant card art by Mark Moriarity, specifically using the idea of a horizontal interface. You might recall I toyed with this before but just never got back to it. After seeing some of his cards I was tempted to give it a go from a different perspective. This is of course not at all a finished piece, just a mockup. I'll go back and turn this into a proper interface soon enough, just playing with some ideas here.

Please if you have commentary, suggestions, critique, harsh critique, do let me know! Helps me get better!!! Thanks guys!

I like it, easy to read and allows more room for the awesome artwork.

awesome!

the only suggestion is to give more relevance to teh action bar. maybe on top-right corner?

keep on with gorgeous artwork! thank you.

I've plugged a demo composite from a side project into this for curiosity. Gives an idea of the malleability of the interface. This is a very fast collage of 2D painted and 3D modelled elements to get a feel for the composition of the next one. As with other pictures in this thread it'll go through at least two iterations of painting before completion. The digital painting for this B-wing will take a few weeks as I've got other projects on my plate right now but at some point soon I'll complete the demo sketch and move it ahead.

Thanks so much! Glad you like it.

Thanks!

yea I've wondered about placement of the action bar. I might draft up a doohicky interface thing for it but I'll keep playing with it. I'm trying to keep all elements on the left or bottom of the card, as it rapidly shrinks the clear useable space for the art if I start filling other corners. I'll keep playing with it.

I've made some large adjustments, these are now print-ready and in high def.

action bar has been incorporated left, and a number of small things have been fixed.

Crackerjack work! Keep it up

Gorgeous! (but I think I prefer the vertical "cockpit" version.

PS: don't forget to add the cannons to the Defender's 6 wingtips.

Your card design is awesome!

I love the in-cockpit view as well, but can imagine that that is much harder and would be hell to keep orderly for all players to figure out.

FFG should really make those sideways pilot cards.

yea, possibly at some point, the original painting was of a test run of the x7, incidentally why it's outrunning two x-wings, it hasn't got the guns or the missile launcher. I'll add them in at some point
