Aquatic At-Te:
(http://fc00.deviantart.com/fs35/i/2008/289/e/f/At_Te_Swimmer_by_SpudaFett.jpg)
if you can't read my handwriting:
"the atte swimmer is designed for aquatic deployment. It can skim the surface of the water or dive to considerable depths. The external gunner station is enclosed for this reason. The simmer requires a 7 man crew, 2 pilots, 4 gunners, and a torpedo gunner. Passengers normally consist of 20 scuba clones and their gear. A hatch on the underbelly allows for underwater deployment of said clones."

i have a ton more somewhere, I'll have to dig them out and scan them if you guys want to see....
-
Nice stuff, Spud.I have seen some of these before, i think on your deviant art page.
-
Oh yeah! I love all the walkers, especially the aquautic atte and the walker scorpion!
-
You have some great sketches there. Really well done!
-
sweet man those are awsome
-
thought I'd post some more of these that I'd had set back in my deviant art pages i'd forgotten about.

on that series of boba creature pics I actually came up with a realy neat way of doing multiple versions of the same sketch. What I did was sketched a rough sketch of what I wanted of the creature by itself, then I made a photocopy on my scanner. I then erased parts of the original and added the harness, saddle and whatnot and scanned it. I then went back to the original and added boba. That way I had three copies of the same image that I could compound upon, color or do whatever.
ok these next few arn't realy star wars so whatever
this was an exercise in photoshoping I was trying to pin down an idea I had for a painting... basically it was a flesh and blood dino facing off with a fully articulated skeleton of itself... It was inspired by an artist I saw on deviant art that paints anatomy in a way where it is two of the same animal in a natural setting only one is full flesh and blood and the other is skeletalized or another layer of anatomy, like muscle and tendons... IT was CREEPY and yet amazingly life like at the same time.

I cheated on that one and copied the cover of a TOR fantasy book... the dragon and the george series, don't remember which specific title though...

a kind of feathered raptor I was studying, trying different poses and perspectives...
(http://fc01.deviantart.com/fs32/i/2008/230/0/b/Velociraptor_sketch_by_SpudaFett.jpg)
that was my sketch concept for an oil painting... the sketch is better than the painting. lol
(http://fc07.deviantart.com/fs32/i/2008/230/b/f/confrontation_by_SpudaFett.jpg)
Idk wtf happened with that one. The skeletalized raptor came out PERFECT but the feathered raptor looks like it had a battle with a hair drier, washing machine and clothes drier and lost.... idk...
some better paintings:

the humingbird and the battle of yavin ones I think are my all time favorite... although I like the bard owl too. Those are the ones that don't need any fixing! lol. although yavin looks a little flat... oh well we are our worst critic.
-
Cool, Devon! I like all of the dino sketches. That idea with the dino facing off with his skeleton is pretty cool.
Man that one painting you are working on in that one pic is huge!
-
that gigantic painting was a valentines day gift to dawn that took me a month to finish. it was supposed to be our "dream home on the hill" but I realy hate the way the cabin turned out and I especially hate the way the trees turned out. it's good, but I have always thought I could do better. I think my problem was that I rushed it and gave myself a deadline... and I don't work well artisticly with a deadline. I have to be free to have spurts of artistic/creative briliance without restriction... lol
yeah... and that was the most expensive painting i'd ever done. I think that canvas cost me upwards of 80 bucks....
-
Oh, I forgot to mention I really like that animated fett and beast drawing and especially like the study of the beast presentation.
-
Spudd, I really like your second dinosaur drawing, the T-rex skeleton! However, that Styracostegasauraptor thing is a little awkward looking. I do also like the thing Animated Boba rode in on, looks like a new creature Hasbro should make to go along with that Boba they gave us! Maybe the next mail-in figure after Obi and Eopiee? ;D ;D
-
thats a great name for that frankensaur xv. lol I drew that when I was like 12 I think copying various parts of dinos out of a coloring book or somthing if I remember right. Thanks for the compliments, yeah that t-rex one is one of my favorite sketches...
man I just remembered I did a big sketch concept study on the mandalorian Mythosaur skeleton and fleshed out version based on nothing more than the mythosaur skull emblem of the mandos... I need to get some pics of that as it is too large to scan!
-
Priceless post Spudafett,
It's great seeing your drawings, wow, some of them remind me of some my own drawings. I'll have to dig what I have left of mine.
I really enjoyed looking at your artwork, brought back some really cool childhood memories for me, so thanks so much.
-
no problem HB... when I finally get settled in at my parents and can get my old computer back up and runing I'll dig out some of my old archived images they are even more clasic than these! lol
I've also recently done a sketch of what I think a LIVE fleshed out Mythosaur should look like that I realy need to get posted up on here.... you know the mythosaur is the skull that's the mando symbol... they were suposed to be as big as cities and all...
-
I really like that creature Boba is riding. I think that is from the Droids series right? Christmas special?
Ever think you could mod that creature out of one of the swimmy dinosaurs? That would be a cool custom.
-
tamer that was the idea when I was sketching those concepts...
I've been eyeing a chap-mei pleasiosaur for months at toys-r-us wondering if I could get it done...
my main reason for adding ball jointed hips to star wars figures started with this project. I wanted the animated boba to be able to ride this animal, so I customized my first star wars figure using joe hips for that reason... and then I started doing it with all my figs and this creature project kind of got lost in the midst of everything....
well guys... I dusted off the old photo-editing program I have and threw this little piece together after watching the newest episode of clone wars. Took a screengrab from their site of the xanadu blood above naboo and edited in a shot of bane.
(http://fc01.deviantart.com/fs50/f/2009/284/9/2/bane_and_xanadu_blood_by_SpudaFett.jpg)
it's as good as I could do with the source material. Had I had higher resolution stuff to begin with it would look better than that....
-
That is a cool image, I love the composition as well. Keep it up as I'll be interested to see what else you come up with.
-
It's been a while since I posted anything in here... honestly it's been a while since I actually drew/painted/photoshopped anything!
I ran accross these sketches I did a while back and thought yall might like em.
basically I kept seeing the mythosaur skull emblem and wanted to know if there was any images of the creature behind the menacing skull. The closest thing I could find was the "city of bone" comic book image.... of course, that comic book depiction of the city suposedly made from a mythosaur, looks nothing like the mythosaur skull emblem... let alone it's not even anatomically correct!
So I took it upon myself to try and draw not only a more anatomically plausible skull, but the entire animal.

I love my pet monitor lizard, so I felt like a monitor type body and head would look great for the mythosaur. I gave the mythosaur a flattened tail as I feel like an animal of this size would be decended from ocean dwelling, swiming lizards, much like crocodiles.
well... what do yall think?
-
Great sketches SF. I like the skull one the best.
-
Very nice, it would be neat to see some color added to some of these. I do love a good backstory.
-
Nice renderings, buddy.
-
Just a bunch of new and old sketches I took the time to upload today...

You have been busy, Devin.
I like the mando chick and really like the insect studies. That robotic insect is cool and the lizard picking his teeth over the horse is my favorite.
-
Great sketches, Spud. It's great what one can do with a pencil and paper!

I guess I should have explained a little bit about some of the pics...
the "robotic insect" is suposed to be my rendition of the mandalorian Basaliisk war droid from The Force Unleashed video game.
The other insect sets were a ficticious alien race I dreamed up a long time ago.
The lizard sketches were done shortly after I had not only gotten my nile monitor lizard as a pet but had seen a video on cryptozoology, the "megalania" or giant butcher, is a giant extinct goanna, or monitor lizzard which inhabited austrailia (and possibly other parts of the world) during early history... there are actuall accounts of Abariginal tribes passing down stories of the "giant goanna" lizzard in their prehistory. this spawned the idea to me that giant monitor lizzards, giant snakes, and giant crocodiles could all be roots for the "dragon" myths and legends. A giant monitor lizard would look very much like an english dragon, only without wings! so these were my depictions of a giant monitor living amongst midevil humans and terrorizing them....
-
omg, your sketches are a work of art :o
very very very cool
-
thanks FF!
