SF&F Picture 22 out of 63 by Steven 'Draken' Pickard.

SciFi and Fantasy Art: Fall of Utopia (Part Two - Unfinished)

On and on the battle of Utopia waged. In the aerial streets where paniced citizens tried to leave the city by any means possible, fighter craft from both the Resbinarge Empire and Delta Feareo executed tight flying dog fights. Meanwhile, little did they notice those caught in the cross fire as vehicles exploded and people were injured. Here, a poor Mistelareian female has been hit by a number of stray shots and fallen to a broken cat walk. Done in biro ink in 2002, it is a part of my Fall of Utopia series of pictures and is still to be completed.

18 Jun 2002	Allie Simmons	Loading... I liked the first one, so i decided to check out this one as well. I think this one is definately the better of the two! Steven 'Draken' Pickard replies: "I actually agree with you there. There were elements I didn't like in the first one, though I think the background is not as strong in this one as the first one."
7 Jul 2002	Eve Archambault	Loading... Wow!! I prefer this one too to the other. ^_^ I have two little critics here. First, to deepen the background, you should try darkening the things that are the farthest. That would help to make it more stand out. We're missing a lot of details because they mostly are all on the same color level. The other little thing I see is about the wings. Usually feathers have a hard thing in the middle, so they can't wave or fold, they can only bend a little. Also, feathers usually attach to a bone armature. The top of the wings can't start with big feathers : it has to start with smaller ones in order to cover the bone and then there is bigger feathers... Well, enough criticising... Please excuse my poor english, I hope you understood what I mean ^_^ Lovely pic, I like it ^_^ Steven 'Draken' Pickard replies: "I will bear the advice on darkness as I finish the picture. Thank you, I kind of see where that makes sense. Regarding the feathers however, it is an error I am well aware (I make the same mistake with most of my wings). I am currently in the process of rethinking my wing drawing strategies."
8 Jul 2002	Amy	Loading... Well I agree that the wings do need a little work but over all I really like this picture. I love the way she is positioned, and she is gorgeous. Steven 'Draken' Pickard replies: "Thank you Amy."
