GIMP 2.8 it's free and has significantly more functionality then paint and it's .NET hellspawn

learning curve is a bit like a brick wall though.

Thanks. I am using Paint and Paint.NET for basically all of this. Some use GIMP (such as the wizards that are Elektrograd and Laritaia), but I prefer using Paint.NET as it is easy and has basically all the essential features for making scenes and detailing vehicles.

Some Map for the Principality of Dushan, some names and details are yet missing. Had myself been inspired by the Map of my LotR books since I am not good at making CGI stuff.

Image


"To the west Dushan borders a huge Ocean. It's eastern and central parts are known for the Great Desert which extends partially to the western Coast. Most of the desert is composed of stony terrain, salt lakes (salares), sand, and felsic lava.

The southern portions of Dushan, separated from the desert by a small mountain range, are of sub-tropical climate and contain dense vegetation and rainforests. It's one of the main areas for Tourism. In the very north and the east chains of Mountains define the outer Areas and as well the Borders of Dushan."

My first attempt, I hope it's good. Also, I do admit to using the base from a tank in one early post of this thread, but it's mostly my own details.

I have 36 hours between getting back from a training thing and going to a thing to apply that training. I feel the urge to sketch out something but I have no idea what.

This is one of the best work I have seen on this forum. Very impressive.

The only piece of critisism I have is that the woman's body could be shaped a bit more female. (Mostly her hips.)

Thanks!

I appreciate the criticism but I'm unfortunately going to have to reject it. Her form is as female as it gets without exaggeration for the sake of showing she is a female -- at least when referencing photographs of actual female soldiers.

Here's a version of the spacelady that addresses these kinds of concerns (drawn by a person on the IRC I visit often).

She ate it.

Two things could have happened to her foot. Case 1, she lost it in battle. Case 2, she intentionally had it surgically removed.

It is an intentional practice with many combat professionals. Quite simply, many natural body parts - especially limbs - simply don't stack up when compared to the myriad of modular, advanced cybernetic systems available. This one in particular is equipped with a thruster for additional maneuverability in null-g environments.

This is also typical in civilian society, but acceptance of increasingly visible and alien (parts that don't look human) modifications varies from place to place.

Why haven't you replaced the body with rice sized computronium pellets though?

Several reasons.

"Computronium" may turn out to be a bogus concept. The issues associated with it, such as overheating, expense, and the insane miniaturization of technology required (how are you gonna make a thruster or laser cannon from them, for example?) may make the technology unfeasible even in the future this fireteam operates in.

Perhaps it's not worth replacing a human body with that kind of material when it may be far cheaper and less risky to simply build a drone/robot around the technology.

Maybe the tech for this insanely complex procedure doesn't exist yet.

Maybe it's not yet accepted by society in any way, shape or form due to how alien the modification is.
