my drawings of various Sci Fi related fighters/vehicles; I have more at http://camodeafie82.deviantart.com/gallery/ (http://camodeafie82.deviantart.com/gallery/) amid all the figures/landscapes... as well as copies of the below in the galleries...these were drawn mostly from 2001-2008ish; and I had not seen the ARC-170 before I drew a couple very similar hull shapes but clearly different from the ARC-170 finals....and a few of those are in fact ideas I am willing to let modelmakers use for custom builds; considering they;re mostly based on existing vehicles..

Wow, these are all great! Time to take one of them to the front page. Welcome once again to ISY.
-
Look cool to me. Are you using watercolor with some of these or is it felt tip pen?

some of the older ones were done with water soluble markers; but most of them were done wit primsacolor permanent markers and Sakura Micron pens

Terriffic work CamoDeafie, I love the fighter designs, very unique, yet very Star Wars.
-
Neat stuff!
-
updating; some more sketches... I need to work on my scanner's resolution/settings...
Y ugly top view; basically it's a couple over powered engines crammed into a much smaller hull with the wings being part of the same armor plating as the cockpit area; in theory, its' based on half a Y wing...with A-wing style engine layout
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/y_wing_ugly_planform_by_camodeafie82-d4fjbra_zps4ba855b1.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/y_wing_ugly_planform_by_camodeafie82-d4fjbra_zps4ba855b1.jpg.html)
this uses the front half of the B-wing cockpit pod; and a custom built rear half with small engines and small wings with laser cannons
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/starfighter_mutt_by_camodeafie82-d4fjb9u_zpsc9646bdb.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/starfighter_mutt_by_camodeafie82-d4fjb9u_zpsc9646bdb.jpg.html)
two different designs;
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/starfighter_designs_by_camodeafie82-d5h2zbj_zps250651e7.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/starfighter_designs_by_camodeafie82-d5h2zbj_zps250651e7.jpg.html)
three designs of mutts/uglies; top two basically uses B-wing cockpit pods; with X wing style engines; bottom one uses a completely different form; somewhat a mix of the Delta-7 and the Eta-2; but without the S-foil panels
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/combat_space_shuttle_by_camodeafie82-d4fjc1n_zps1c47e2f0.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/combat_space_shuttle_by_camodeafie82-d4fjc1n_zps1c47e2f0.jpg.html)

EDIT: I forgot about a figure study that I apparently did....a female Mandalorian....

-
Very nice again. Like the figure rendering. Has an anime feel to it.
-
Wow, I like it all. Had a heck of a time figuring out which one to use on the front page update.

Tamer; I had a burst of inspiration; and thought of you... [at1] [at1] [at1] [at1]
gentlemen and Tamer; I present you.... Sienar Fleet Systems and Kuat Drive Yards' collaboration, on a replacement Walker for the flaws of the AT-ST due to Battle of Endor; the "TIE Walker"; it has a Sienar Fleet Systems cockpit ball, very similar to the TIE line; with the side armament of the AT-ST, and the twin blaster cannons of the TIE; the ability to rotate almost 360 degrees, depending on the legs; and the bipedal system very similar to the AT-PT, but with larger feet similar to the AT-AT, and 4 claws per foot pad in order to grip on very rough surfaces
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TIEWalker_zpsa1af34e0.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TIEWalker_zpsa1af34e0.jpg.html)
next up; some pirates found the remains of wrecked X-wing and TIE Bomber; the X-wings' engine and S-foils and power systems, along with they Hyperdrive, were in great shape, but the cockpit and the forward fuselage were damaged beyond recognition; whereas the TIE bomber's cockpit pod was in great shape; along with the computer control system, so they decided to merge the two with the help of several spacer fabricators and mechanics...and outfitted the resulting Ugly with a pair of missile launchers on the cut pylons, and managed to make it sturdy enough as an assault vehicle in the pirates small armada; with the speed of the X-wing and the firepower of the X-wing and missile launchers; this TIE-XB is a terror of the merchant shipping lanes..

That Walker is for the win! Thank you. Lovely idea on the rotating cockpit. This would make an awesome custom vehicle thats for sure.
That needs to be in a frame!

I'm sure it needs be made into a custom vehicle!
the "TIE Tank"/Crawler...doesn't make sense to me.... a walker made more sense esp due to the ability to actually have a rotating firing platform like a turret :D 0//
-
These make me want to build ships.

Frame it and make a custom vehicle. I would sure love to have both in my own collection. I know Spry has made some of the concept uglies, wonder what he would do with this one?
Back on the front page.
-
thank you for the FP! :) if I can find enough fodder material; I would definitely try to build it..will be trying to make it a painting or a large scale rendering in color.... :)
-
You know I got an extra pair of feet like the ones on my walker and a old tie fighter and atst....won't be exact as the drawing but not many concept sketches are exact to final product...
The Banshee pilot would be a great figure too
-
Love your drawings, keep them coming. It is very inspiring for develop custom vehicles.

I think the AT-PT or the Clone Recon pod walker would be a good donor for the legs and possibly the engine/drive unit....

Scratchbuilding the body might be the best bet
-
well actually the Hasbro Clone Trooper tripod AT-AP has the two legs that would work excellently for the TIE -Walker concept...just need the TIE ball to be modified, and the body be custom made from sheet styrene panels....and greeblified...
-
Could you add a person next to the walker for an idea about the size?

no access to a scanner for the time being; (was using parents' lol)
so I took my camera out and tried to take pics.... well I think a scanner would be far better.
here are the drawings I've done so far since the TIE Walker!
another view of the TIE Walker in color; with a pen sketch of pilot next to the whole scene;
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/P5240368_zpsb7762e0e.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/P5240368_zpsb7762e0e.jpg.html)
a series of sketches for what I am considering doing to my Y wing toy that would've cost me too much to restore, what with it needing 17 parts..
pen sketches and pencil sketches of the original idea; a truncated diamond wing form kind of like the Eta-2, and kind of like the RL F-22 Raptor;
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/P5240371_zpse723bfec.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/P5240371_zpse723bfec.jpg.html)
a concept of longer hulled, two-man, no turret, fighters, a friend of mine came up with the name, Kidon, which means Spear in Hebrew.. like the Aleph used in the EU; this idea is going to be built in sheet plastic, totally scratch built and scaled to fit two figures;
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/P5240366_zpsa09e8004.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/P5240366_zpsa09e8004.jpg.html)
an earlier color sketch of a 1-man Kidon type fighter with Y-wing front hull and turret left intact; I might do this one to the Y wing toy I have...
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/P5240365_zpse142fcb9.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/P5240365_zpse142fcb9.jpg.html)
the pilot sketches for the Kidon fighters; based on the Robotix Figure I have, and based on the Banshee drawing's helmet; as well as two alternatives;
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/P5240364_zps4afa5e02.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/P5240364_zps4afa5e02.jpg.html)
three color options for the Kidon pilot;
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/P5240363_zps285b1a13.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/P5240363_zps285b1a13.jpg.html)
another set of 3 color options for the same pilot; with line drawings of how the helmet should look;I think I can use the Clone Pilot (ROTS) helmet and do some modifications to it using sheet plastic (small) and possibly putty and sculpt the lines/detailing on it...
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/P5240361_zps95c02e07.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/P5240361_zps95c02e07.jpg.html)
and then here's a pair of Uglies/prototypes... basically ARC-170 center hull and X-wing S-foils and engines... could be "Ugly", could be Incom's XT-65A development Mule for the T-65 X-wing's engine/S-foils system using an old ARC-170 center hull; there are 3 crew, but instead of two gunners, the center position is taken by one of Incom's engineers for evaluation of the engine/S-foil system and the Class 1 Hyperdrive that will be used in the production T-65 X -Wings; for the reference for the center hull, I used the Making of Revenge of the Sith book; sharp eyed guys will notice that the engines are farther apart from the central hull; this is due to the ARC-170's wider center hull and the need to have the opening mechanism separate from the cockpit area; in the production X-wing, the center and rear positions are eliminated; thus allowing for a slimmer hull and lighter fighter overall;
with S-foils open and in attack position; you can see the warhead launcher between the lower engines and the hull;
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/P5240357_zps5d80a52d.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/P5240357_zps5d80a52d.jpg.html)
with S-foils closed;
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/P5240356_zps63f37012.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/P5240356_zps63f37012.jpg.html)
EDIT: I totally forgot three other sketches of a tattoo Idea I plan on having done on me...
Tattoo Idea #1; front view; font would be like in #3;
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/P5240370_zpsf899dee9.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/P5240370_zpsf899dee9.jpg.html)
Tattoo Idea #2; same front view; different details and simpler; maybe not that much simpler due to the checkers lol
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/P5240369_zps2ca97c9e.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/P5240369_zps2ca97c9e.jpg.html)
Tattoo Idea #3; 3/4 view, might be more recognizable as a Star Wars Rebel pilot helmet... not sure if I want the green/black checkers, or if I want the blue Alliance symbol like on #1..

I really hope to see that TIE Walker get made one day. Back to the front page with that update. Great idea of the S Foils on the X-Wing.

Working on it but don't hold your breath it will take along time but this pic is alot of help thanks jus trying to figure out how to get a figure in the cockpit if the turning mechanism is were the doors are on my tie fighter.

couldn't you modify it so that the viewport opens out? at least that is how I envision it....
and Tamer; thanks!
the Kidon and its pilot will be turned into custom vehicles when I get the materials; and then possibly the ARC-170/X-wing ugly if the Revell snap models are the same scale to each other...
-
Really loving the vehicle designs! So many cool ones it is hard to pick a favorite. The walking eyeball and the Ugly are at the top of the list though.

I was thinking with your design the tie ball would of opened from the back...however if using the hasbro toy it plossible for what you want but difficult imo I might attach the turning mechanism to the back "handle" on the toy and leave the doors on the top...but thats what I would do
-
Cool!
Do you have a Deviantart account? Would be excellent follow your work there too.

Yes I do; it is http://camodeafie82.deviantart.com/gallery (http://camodeafie82.deviantart.com/gallery) with a lot of NSFW stuff there...
Krztfr; here's what I was thinking for the TIE ball..... could you make it so that there is a hatch on top of the body for the figure to "climb" down into the ball through the top while maintaining the turning area on there? kind of like a tank turret.... with rings and support system.... originally I had in mind a resin cast of the Hasbro TIE ball that could be modified/ sculpted to adjust for a pylon-less ball and provide a way to make the front viewport a hatch...

Well that turned out pretty cool.
-
yup! I asked him if he has more pics/views of the Walker :) I think this is a good way to make a mold for fiberglassing another one for the action figures... (ideas ideas ideas already lol)
-
On the front page along with a shout out to Fooled Trooper. Had to post this on our FB Page too.
-
Thats something really different, the sculpt is superb! next you've got to make a cake version!
-
hahah thanks :)
I've been gone for so long....I finally have access to a scanner now :) so here is a massive update!
a bunch of "ugly" Y-wing cockpit sections turned into various airspeeders; some are the same, some are slightly different; but it's something for me to try to build with my old Kenner Y wing cockpit section!

Wow, awesome update. Sorry it took me a few days to get to it. I am sure glad you got a scanner! I had a heck of a time figuring out which picture to use for the front page update.
I like that new sci-fi verse too. Those ships have a real Klingon feel to them for me. Off to share.
-
WOW! these are amazing, You are a gifted artist, the shading is fantastic, far better than anything I could ever do.
A great update!
-
Man, i wish i could draw like that. Very nice buddy
-
another update!
First up; a cosplay idea for a friend of mine; for a Post Apocalyptic survivor... I know, not quite Star Wars related, but its SCI FI isn't it?

(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/MandalorianTest1_zps6c854fb0.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/MandalorianTest1_zps6c854fb0.jpg.html)
Mandalorian Test helmet designs, I think the one on the Right with the AT-AT driver styled breath tubes would work better?
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/MandalorianTestHelmets_zps0c949d92.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/MandalorianTestHelmets_zps0c949d92.jpg.html)
without helmet/breath tube box and with two gun rig; essentially a planet-side outfit...I think he shall have a standard/Classic Mandalorian Helmet for planetside work, along with either a short coat or a trench coat..
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/MandalorianTest2_zps638dce54.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/MandalorianTest2_zps638dce54.jpg.html)
alternate coloring with the 2nd helmet design, looks closer to the "Classic Mandalorian" color schemes...based on the coloring from the SuperCommando unit that Jaster Mereel led on Galidraan;

and this one is from the same 'verse as Lori; a character sketch of her husband, who has the tattoos and look of a tiger-man but is wholly Human, so as not to squick people out like the original idea of a 4 legged tiger with super intelligence and opposing thumbs being her husband..

Great update CD, and heck yes that post apocalyptic gal is great. I must say I think I like the look of the pilot with that Driver Style hoses, but I have been accused of being biased towards that character. Off to share.

Someone mentioned I should do storyboards/comics with my drawing style.....this is one such attempt; ;)

Panel 1; That armor's too strong for blasters!
Panel 2; Okay. Send in the Y-wings.
Panel 3; 3 Y wings leaving Echo base's hangar
Panel 4; Coming up on the Imp Walkers
Panel 5; Torpedoes Away!
Panel 6; Direct Hits!
Panel 7; AT-AT hulks burning/smoking as Y Wings and Airspeeders exit
-and thus Echo base/Hoth remained well protected! (for a time being)
Panel 8; Darth Vader; WHO FORGOT THE AIR SUPPORT TODAY!? (Officer goes *gulps*
-
Awesome! I too think it would have turned out something like this or perhaps we could have seen the air support walker show up to take a few of em out. Off to share.

another update.... this time; Mandalorian snubfighters and gunships! well; if Kuat System Engineering/Drive Yards made fighters for the Mandalorian Supercommando group after the Firespray class and the Eta-2 Actis fighters...... and recolors of the Mandalorian test pilots; with an extra item on their helmets!
the Snub and Gunships! the Snub is similar in some ways to the Eta-2's cockpit pod, with a little different front, and is approx in the class of the A-wing/R-22 Spearhead fighter, making it a quick tough little fighter with variable geometry foils and blaster turrets; while the gunships takes after the Firespray class and the Kenner Sentinel pod Mini-Rig

I have yet to try a vehicle custom, but I may just grab a Yoda line mini-Slave 1 now. That's the perfect size fodder for this amazing concept.
Are you OK with me using your concept CamoDeafie?
UPDATE: Good news. They are now $10 at my local Marshalls.
-
OH YEAH I am more than OK with you basing a custom vehicle on my concepts! :D DH

another update!
a female Mandalorian; I know, purple and light blue on camo......well; fashion statement! :P

a comparo of X wing and ARC-170/X hybrid/Ugly; flying together with S foils open
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/Arc-XwingandXWingPrototype_zps6f08920b.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/Arc-XwingandXWingPrototype_zps6f08920b.jpg.html)
My interpretation of the Mark 1 Z-95 Headhunter; as described by Brian Daley in Han Solo, At Stars End; in this book; he describes the Z-95 as having the following attributes;
1) Variable Geometry swing wings; (KEY attribute 1,)
2) Arrowhead Shape (KEY attribute 2,)
3) Fork Tailed (minor)
4) Bubble Canopy
5) Triple Blasters on wingtips (they have to be able to rotate w the wings or they wont be of use..)
6) Twin Engines (KEY difference between later Z-95s with 4 engines)
That said; this is the quick pen sketch of the Mark 1 in both forms and with a much later "classic" Z-95 HeadHunter; one will note that the Arrowhead shape is VERY reminiscent of the Aurek (another variable geometry fighter), R-22 Spearhead, RZ-1 A-wing, Delta-7A/B, and several other fighters.. I have attempted to maintain the central hull and engine appearance of the classic Z-95, so as not to be completely different from the later Z-95s.

Great designs, you have a good imagination and a real talent for art ad creativity.

thanks all!
here is another update! :D
First up; a customized smuggler's craft! its a small Corellian Gunship set in the top of a wedge shaped craft, with a removable cargo box on the bottom...
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/Smugglercraft_zps6592865e.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/Smugglercraft_zps6592865e.jpg.html)
a group of pirate craft; in the foreground is an ARC-170 modified with Split S foils based on Booster Terrik's Z-95 mods, with a Venator class SD in the background along with a heavily modified Blockade Runner (now outfitted with a cruciform tower set of 4 turbolaser turrets), and a Medical Frigate (Nebulon-7?)
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/ARC-XPirates_zpse44adce7.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/ARC-XPirates_zpse44adce7.jpg.html)
a hypothetical custom fighter; using an ETA-2 body and custom TIE style wings; could be before TIE, could be after TIE? similar in idea to the Chiss Clawcraft which uses TIE style ball but has different "wings"
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/ETA-TIE_zps4b2673d3.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/ETA-TIE_zps4b2673d3.jpg.html)
these following drawings are of modified ARC-170s; they are basically ARC-170 hulls with the Incom Corporation kit of Split S foils and X-wing engine componets, using Z-95 AF series nacelles, Incom offers this modification as the ARC-X for people who want similar performance as the X-wings, but cannot afford brand new X-wings; and due to the ARC's larger hull, Incom engineers were able to cram all the X-wing systems into it, and still have room for 3 seats and tail guns, they also offer a mod in which the rear gunner is replaced by either a cargo bay module or a passenger bay module, for courier/bounty hunter work. This has made the ARC-X a somewhat popular alternative to the Z-95 and Y-wing in pirate fleets and smuggler fleets, while maintaining the firepower of the X-wings. It is interesting to theorize that had the Rebel Alliance used similar craft to these in place of the Y wings, they might have been able to fight off the TIE fighters in the Trench Run....

and finally; here is a final sketch outline design of the Mark 1 Z-95;

-
Wow, another great update. My comments are on the front page.
-
small update; been busy doing rough sketches for a sort of visual story; essentially Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus set in a sci fi universe...
anyways; here is a Corellian Engineering Corporation Escort Carrier/Corvette/Frigate; based on both the Consular and the CR90 series, but with a much larger salon pod than the Consular; and with the 11 engine set up of the CR90; this vessel holds up to 72 X wings in 6 double deck hangar bays; and have 10 single Turbolaser turrets, one double Turbolaser turret, two Ion Cannons in the front; the structure on top is the flight control tower; while the structure up front is the main bridge, with the secondary "battle bridge" below it in the center of the salon pod. Ideally this is an Alliance ship designed to be the main ship of a battle group/task force alongside Mon Cal Cruisers and Nebulon frigates; the firepower on it is enough to take on the much larger ISD crafts of the Imperial Remnants/True Empire factions.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/CorellianLightEscortCarrier_zps2f2bb416.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/CorellianLightEscortCarrier_zps2f2bb416.jpg.html)
and here is a costume design I am working on for myself; the sketch uses a brown leather coat instead of the black mosaic leather coat, it is basically for a Mad max/Road Warrior/Post Apocalyptic outfit to go with the Post Apocalyptic girl costume, for a friend, and we are planning to go to Comic Con Portland 2014 :D

I love the costume design and assembly of parts.
Your drawings are great. I especially like the modified arc 170 and tie designs.
-
You are very creative, the way you are mixing media goes beyond this being a hobby, its a real gift.

thanks man! :)
Wow great update. My comments are on the front page.
awesome, thanks!
BTW, another update...been on a kinda Corellian kick lately...here are four designs!
first up....a small Gunship from Republic/Corellian Engineering, it is larger than the Eta-2 next to it, but much MUCH smaller than the later DP series of Corellian Gunships, has 8 heavy cannons in 6 turrets
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/LightRepublic-CorellianGunship_zps8703fb45.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/LightRepublic-CorellianGunship_zps8703fb45.jpg.html)
here is the big brute kid brother of the DP series Gunships, a Heavy Turbolaser Picket Gunship, which due to its 60m size and its impressively heavy firepower, is classified as a Corvette. the turrets are similar to the ones found on Imperial bases and the Death Stars; with this much firepower, this ship is capable of breaking through Imperial blockades, and with a faster rate of firing engineered into the Turbolasers, it is capable of punching through most shields by brute force repeated blasts (EDITED: apparently the DP20 Gunship is twice as big!) there are also hidden concussion missile launchers on the craft
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/CorellianHeavyTurbolaserPicketGunship_zps9678b46d.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/CorellianHeavyTurbolaserPicketGunship_zps9678b46d.jpg.html)
here is a heavily modified/custom built freighter, using parts and pieces from existing freighters, the cargo bay is similar to the forward hold of the Starlight Intruder, while the hammerhead bridge is again, similar to Starlight Intruder and CR70 Corvettes, but smaller and with two quad laser turrets on the sides, while the rear is based on that of the Consular class vessels and CR series turret pods, along with docking rings. there are also two light cannons on the bottom front of the main cargo hold, for fighting off pirates and occasionally patrol and bounty hunter vessels. This gives the crew a better chance of surviving battles and blockades while on the Outer Rim for jobs
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/HeavilymodifiedCorellianfreighter_zpscdfb1df6.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/HeavilymodifiedCorellianfreighter_zpscdfb1df6.jpg.html)
This is a collaboration of Corellian engineering, Kuat Drive yards and Subpro Corporation, to make a small snubfighter with three engines that can rotate 90 degrees from horizontal, and has thrust vectoring, it is a relatively heavily armed fighter, with 4 heavy cannons on two turrets and two torpedo tubes with magazines of 3 each. it is being piloted by a Mandalorian pilot. The engine/fin assembly can rotate for landing or for increased maneuverability in space, and the layout gives the fighter an impressive rate of acceleration compared to twin engine fighters, with minimal increase of mass, making it nearly as quick as an A-wing, and much faster than the T-65 X-wing, with which it is a competitor.

Another great update. My comments are on the front page.
Thank you!
here is another update; yes I am still on a Corellian kick hahaha.....
first up; The Starlight Interdictor; a custom built anti-smuggling ship, with a Mobquet Medium transport cargo hold in the middle, and a Corellian Corvette engine section, the front is a new built hull unit, housing 8 single turbolaser turrets and two double turbolaser turrets; with 4 singles and a double on the dorsal, and the same on the ventral side; there is also a torpedo/missile bay in the tip of the front, and the bridge is armored and well protected in the middle, with two shield generators amidships, along with the standard long range sensor system between the cargo bay and the engine units.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/StarlightInterdictor_zps1c54b1b7.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/StarlightInterdictor_zps1c54b1b7.jpg.html)
here is a heavily modified Corellian Corvette, with two cargo bay containers from the Mobquet Medium Transport series, and a custom built cruciform structure between them, holding quad turrets. this is a smugglers/pirate freighter/corvette
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/HeavilymodifiedCorellianCorvette_zpsb454fab8.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/HeavilymodifiedCorellianCorvette_zpsb454fab8.jpg.html)
here is a Pirate Corelllian YT-1300 series, with a central cockpit pod, and in place of starboard or port cockpit modules, the pirates have added heavy weaponry, it is essentially a blockade runner.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/PirateYT-series_zps1b5724f1.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/PirateYT-series_zps1b5724f1.jpg.html)
here is a custom Light Starfighter carrier, it uses a Dreadnaught style front hold to hold one squadron of 12 X-wings or E-wings, while the center section houses two squadrons, along with 8 single turbolaser turrets and 4 missile bays, it also has a Nebulon-7 series engine unit in the rear, along with the long range comm systems, and a control tower/bridge on the top
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/NewRepublicCustomLightCarrier_zps509dc3ea.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/NewRepublicCustomLightCarrier_zps509dc3ea.jpg.html)
another Pirate Corellian YT-1300, called the Crab, it is a heavily modified craft, instead of the usual forward locations of the prongs, they have been relocated to between the escape pods and engine bay, and in place of the forward cargo hold, is a magnetic/kinetic grapple hook, with which the crew uses to latch onto a victim craft. on the portside, where the YT1300 cockpit pod could be located, is an expandable boarding tube and docking ring to force entry on the victim craft, between the hook and the boarding tube, is a large ion cannon to disable the electric systems on the victim craft, along with two laser cannons on the chin of the cockpit pod. it also have two quad turrets in their standard locations.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/CrabPirateYTseries_zps8bb84026.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/CrabPirateYTseries_zps8bb84026.jpg.html)
here is a heavily modified T-16 skyhopper, converted to short range starfighter, with three Incom Fusial thrust engines mounted to it, and two laser cannons in addition to the single light cannon. this is a relatively cheap way to procure starfighters for cash-strapped planetary security forces.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/heavilymodifiedT16_zps049ee724.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/heavilymodifiedT16_zps049ee724.jpg.html)
below is an armored skyhopper for patrol use, used by security forces. it is basically a police gunship, but it also has a couple holding cells for prisoners.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/Armoredpatrolskyhopper_zps18797a78.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/Armoredpatrolskyhopper_zps18797a78.jpg.html)
and finally, a custom built YT1300, with the central cockpit extended to the far forward, Corellian Engineering Corps also added a large passenger/troop compartment in the front, between the prongs, and added two laser turrets to the front. It is used by planetary security forces as a patrol craft, and is hyperspace capable. the troop compartment can hold 24 armed troopers and in place of passenger cabins, are prisoner holding cells. there is a minimal crew of 2, with the ability to add 4 more crewmembers as gunners, to man the forward turrets and the quad turrets in the center of the saucer section.

man, these are sweet looking. I think hasbro or lego needs to make these and I'd probably be broke buying most of them. keep it up
-
man, these are sweet looking. I think hasbro or lego needs to make these and I'd probably be broke buying most of them. keep it up
haha thanks! of these; the modified Corellian Corvette and the YT1300 troop ship are probably the easiest to make in legos....
might be relatively simple to make them in action figure scale..using scratch builds; massive yeah...

Wow, wouldn't it be awesome to see some ships like this in Episode 7! Some designs we are familiar with, but with a new look. Off to share.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Happy New Years! sorry I've been out for a little bit....been developing a visual adaption of Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus, but set in a sci fi universe....and did a few sketches of ships :) including a scene of Corellian pirate ships.... vadsab
first two; quick sketches of General Titus Andronicus, the main character in the sci fi adaption. I don't know if I want to do a webcomic sort of thing, or a blog, or a paper novel yet.

Great sketches all of them, your 3D work and figures are very good.
-
forgot one more sketch!
Corellian Patrol / Troop ship interior layout sketches and comparison with a Stock Freighter, the layout shows how one could seat 24 troopers in addition to a nominal crew of 4-6, maybe 8 if fully manned for the quad turrets and forward laser cannons; and the more detailed interior layout shows the substitution of the normal engineering bay into prisoner holding cells; with locked floor panels to prevent sabotage, along with 4 bunk-rooms for the crew, the simpler sketch shows 4 holding cells and no bunk-rooms, halved the Engineering bay size (narrow walk-around the cells).. this same ship could be retrofitted as an armed passenger shuttle, with the bunk rooms intact, and the standard YT-1300 engineering bay being left alone, or as a pirate ship with two bunk rooms and two cargo modules; a shot of the forward interior shows how the benches should be, with a central corridor and weapons rack on the inboard bench backs, and another sketch of that space shows hammocks hung for the 24 troopers to rest/berth while in long range transit/long term mission.
EDIT whoops forgot the sketch itself LOL

Very cool sketches! I love the corellian stuff, especially the interior sections.

This thing is beautiful!
Are you going to cast this in plastic or paint the clay?
Could you add your concept drawing next to the clay images?
BTW, I dont know when I'll ever get to it, but I picked up a mini-Slave 1 and Sebulba's podracer, both for $10. I haven't started yet, but with those two pieces of fodder, a Mando snub-fighter looks like a fairly easy project.
-
I agree seeing this cast in plastic would be cool. Man, if it were full size you could hollow that puppy out and have yourself a great three and three quarter vehicle.
-
Love the vehicle drawings! That sculpted vehicle is awesome too!
-
got a few more drawings, gotta love those Corellian YT-1300s, so easy to modify.........
battle group of 4 vessels, a Scout fighter (TIE based), an ARC-X, two different Corellian YT series
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/ScoutandARC-XandCorelliansBattleGroup_zpsfeedba7a.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/ScoutandARC-XandCorelliansBattleGroup_zpsfeedba7a.jpg.html)
an earlier model of a Corellian Y series gunship, saucer shaped, no forward prongs, outfitted with 4 heavy cannons similar to the AT-AT chin cannons.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/CorellianMilitarySaucerGunship_zpsf2c22e1c.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/CorellianMilitarySaucerGunship_zpsf2c22e1c.jpg.html)
a YT1300 custom built to military specification for Corellian Security Forces, it is basically a YT1300 central cockpit, with the cockpit pod extended further forward and the central tube enlarged to house two missile/torpedo tubes and two heavy laser cannons, providing the user with the equivalent armament or greater, than that of the Lamda shuttle, and with the YT 1300's famously modular cargo system.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/CorellianMilitaryYT1300_zpsec8dfac8.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/CorellianMilitaryYT1300_zpsec8dfac8.jpg.html)
this is an Incom ARC-200, a development of the X-wing and a return to the ARC designation, only instead of Aggressive ReCon, it is now Assault Recon Craft; it replaces the X wing and supplement the E-wing
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/IncomARC-200_zps1efff8b5.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/IncomARC-200_zps1efff8b5.jpg.html)
this is a YT1300 Military modified to accept two large modular missile launchers, and their reloading system which replaces the Military's modular cargo bays, and the addition of two single Turbolaser turrets based on the CR70/90 Corvette turrets, in essence, the Star Wars equivalent to the USAF AC-130 Spectre gunship.

You're a very talented technical artist! Have you had any professional training? (Apologies if you've already answered this question before...)
-

not so much no.....had a few classes in university on CAD and blueprints but otherwise, no..... mostly self taught from young age reading Ian Hogg's military books with John Bachelor's illustrations.... and art classes from elementary school to high school for non-technical drawings.
-
Wow, I bet that one with the two shield generators would be tough to take out. Great new designs. Off to share.
-
Neat designs. That light fighter looks like it would be an do-able kit bash with a Jedi fighter and a TIE interceptor or Vader's fighter. If Interceptors didn't run $50+, I'd give it a go.

or you could.... make your own wing panels using those office light sheets for the texture, plastic C channels to hold the panels, and plastic strips for the borders...? ;)
-
been snowed in for last few days.....
got some work done!
Below; a B-wing command pod as the center hull for a Tie Based SCOUT fighter.... should a doable kit bash for you guys with broken B wings! ;)

A fleet group with the various modified Corellian craft, and yes that is the above fighter in the foreground :)

earlier take of the SCOUT fighter, its based somewhat on an old GI joe vehicle front cockpit that resembles a HIND-A front end (slanted front rather than vertical)
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/Tie-BasedScoutFighter_zpsfb83d9e6.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/Tie-BasedScoutFighter_zpsfb83d9e6.jpg.html)
a super heavy duty Assault craft used by Mandalorians, it is outfitted with two Light Turbolaser pods and two heavy laser cannons, plus hidden autoblasters
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/MandalorianAssaultCraftLightTurbolaser_zpsb16b9617.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/MandalorianAssaultCraftLightTurbolaser_zpsb16b9617.jpg.html)
a Cygnus Rho class Assault Turbolaser craft, it uses one large, heavy turbolaser, and is longer than the Lambda shuttle, has NO cargo/passenger space due to the super capacitors taking up the room along with an independent reactor for the turbolaser.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/CygnusRHOAssaultTurbolaser_zps4ecd333e.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/CygnusRHOAssaultTurbolaser_zps4ecd333e.jpg.html)
and a Medium Assault Air Speeder, four laser cannons and an R unit in the rear.

and now, here is a series of graphic fiction storyboard style images;
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/GhostsScene1_zps505ae8f2.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/GhostsScene1_zps505ae8f2.jpg.html)

(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/GhostsScene4_zps020eda73.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/GhostsScene4_zps020eda73.jpg.html)
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/GhostsScene5_zps10406a7a.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/GhostsScene5_zps10406a7a.jpg.html)
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/GhostsScene6_zps5b6587e8.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/GhostsScene6_zps5b6587e8.jpg.html)
basically the backstory is that it is over a century since Battle of Endor, and the Scimitar (Sith Infiltrator) has been adrift in the Unknown Regions after the Fall of the various Empires, and the Dark Side is all over the craft, and has taken the two Dark Side consciousnesses of Darth Vader and Maul, since Anakin was freed from the Dark Side, he was able to come back as a Force Ghost, but where did the Darth Vader alter-ego Dark Side persona go? Similarly, what happened to the Dark Side consciousness of Maul?
the Droid in the ship is one of Maul's old training droids, and also one of Vader's old training droids, and since we have EU material stating it is possible for a ship or two ships to be sentient with the Force (Ship with Dark side, and Callista on Outbound Flight?), the idea is there that the two Dark Ghosts have taken over this droid and ship and has been locked in eternal combat (the Force vision); over the control of the ship and the droid pilot.
-
It sure would be cool to see some of these built in three and three quarter scale. Great work. Off to share.
-
Again, nice concepts vehicles and the Vader/Maul droid is a balanced blend of both Sith lords. I especially liked the super heavy duty Mandalorian assault craft. It definitely has a Mando feel to it.
I may head back to Gabrielle Bros. They're clearancing Class 2 vehilcles for $9 (mini's and collector size). Good fodder.
or you could.... make your own wing panels using those office light sheets for the texture, plastic C channels to hold the panels, and plastic strips for the borders...? ;)
Hmmmm. Worth an experiment, but I was thinking it would be easier to mold a panel (or two; left and right) from a TIE interceptor itself. Keeping the mold flat, you could just pour in a 2-component compund.
-
actually; due to the form I envisioned for the wing units, I think my method would make a good molding model for a hard resin cast for the wing units....which would make it reproducible by having a single sided mold and making two units and gluing the panels together.... the most difficult part I can see would be the construction of the side engine pods...but with GI joe and so on for fodder, it is possible to make the side cooling intakes and engine covers pretty easily...the folding mechanism, I'm thinking probably use a rod and hinge system and a sort of "lock" tabs...maybe low power magnets?
-
got a few done up :) mostly B wing cockpit based, and a pilot based on the Robotix figure... :D
Pirate mash up of a B-wing cockpit pod, X-wing/Z-95 engine pods, and TIE Interceptor wing panels...."B-Tie pirate Ugly"
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/PirateB-TieStarfighter_zps9521c262.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/PirateB-TieStarfighter_zps9521c262.jpg.html)
Kidon Pilot (the 2 seater arrow shaped Y-wing fighter design in earlier pages), based on the RObotix figure I have, but with a Star Wars styled helmet portion and breather tubes
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/KidonPilot_zps0cf9a9a3.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/KidonPilot_zps0cf9a9a3.jpg.html)
two Pirate Starfighters, both are based on B-wing pods, but have different wing foil shapes, the one on the left looks closer to the Eta 2 style wing form, with X wing engine nacelles, while the one on the left is similar to the Phantom TIE tri-winged fighter, but with Chiss clawcraft styled thrusters on rear edges and with solid wing panels. they are both heavily armed
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/PirateStarfighters_zps6ca488ad.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/PirateStarfighters_zps6ca488ad.jpg.html)
the Scimitar Sith Droid pilot from the storyboard idea...

another mashup, this time, using the central hull of a Cloakshape fighter and rear fin, and the wing units and front cockpit pod of a B-wing :)
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/BCloakshapeStyleUgly_zps5821a7a1.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/BCloakshapeStyleUgly_zps5821a7a1.jpg.html)
hope you enjoyed them!
-
Your designs are phenomenal.
The B-TIE Ugly would be a great custom project.
I can't wait to see more of your drawings.
-
update! more uglies and customs!
A custom starfighter based on the venerable X-wing, but with custom engine and airfoils, it is more of a scout/light fighter in the class of the E-wing; below is the original pen sketch; name is Trigon Starfighter (Trigon is Hebrew for Stingray, in keeping with EU use of hebrew words)
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TrigonStarfightercustom_zps4aa91b6d.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TrigonStarfightercustom_zps4aa91b6d.jpg.html)
the Trigon rendered in color markers

A custom Rebel Airspeeder based on the X-wing, going from the text information of converting old un-spaceworthy fighters into airspeeders, using X-wing hull
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/RebelX-Airspeeder1_zps4670eae8.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/RebelX-Airspeeder1_zps4670eae8.jpg.html)
A rendering of the Corellian Pocket Patrol Boat, based on the HLA-500 design, and following the text info of having two crew, a single large cannon turret and being small and fast
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/CorellianPocketPatrolBoat_zps59370216.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/CorellianPocketPatrolBoat_zps59370216.jpg.html)
A Mandalorian GUnship airspeeder, inspired by the HIND front, and kind of similar to the LAATi vehicles
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/Gunshipspeeder1_zps4eb09551.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/Gunshipspeeder1_zps4eb09551.jpg.html)
A custom Incom product, the spiritual successor to the T-16 Skyhopper, a Combat Skyhopper for use in Planetary Security Forces, with 3 scramjets (similar units to the V-wing Airspeeder scramjets) for high speed transorbital combat
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/IncomCombatSkyhopper_zpsfa07a573.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/IncomCombatSkyhopper_zpsfa07a573.jpg.html)
Another airspeeder, similar to the T-16 series with 3 foils, but using the front half of a B-wing cockpit pod, and two engines. it is a compact airspeeder with minimal armor and decent firepower for Patrol users
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/PatrolAirspeeder_zps3a63ddc4.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/PatrolAirspeeder_zps3a63ddc4.jpg.html)
Yet another Rebel X-wing turned into an airspeeder with a different foil shape.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/RebelX-Airspeeder2_zps6a536274.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/RebelX-Airspeeder2_zps6a536274.jpg.html)
-
Now these look pretty daggone rad to me. I posted a YT Freighter Mod on Facebook this week that folks really commented on and I am thinking this might garner some similar response. Off to share and get folks all fired up!
-
Very cool! My favorite is that first airspeeder conversion with the orange markings. It looks like it would make a wicked aerospace fighter pulling double duty as ground attack, and space fighter.
-
another update, one Pirate Ugly X Wing with Y wing engines and a custom A-wing with 4 cannons and V-wing foils, and 3 different N1 Naboo Starfighter mods....
A-wing (either RZ-1 or R-22 Spearhead, both are same but with different engines and details ) with V-wing Foils and 4 cannons from V-wing; this provides the fighter with more firepower, and less risk of overheating the power generators by use of Foils from the V-wing series
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/A-wingVMod_zps4af374c4.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/A-wingVMod_zps4af374c4.jpg.html)
Naboo Fighter missile mod, two large engines similar to X-wings or Z-95s, mounted to rear of cockpit to a custom midsection, kinda like the A-10 warthog, and missile launchers mounted on forward wingtips, thus making the center missile tube redundant, and replaced with a large laser cannon; this is more an attack fighter/strafing fighter
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/N1Missilemod_zps599ed9a2.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/N1Missilemod_zps599ed9a2.jpg.html)
Naboo Starfighter, additional laser cannons and Novaldex J-77 type engines (RZ-1 A-wing engines) with A-wing style thrust vector rings and fins, this makes the elderly N1 a much more agile fighter able to keep up with the A-wings and TIE Interceptors.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/N1GunMod_zps5c39246e.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/N1GunMod_zps5c39246e.jpg.html)
Naboo Starfighter mod, not as extensively modified as the ones above, this fighter employs the Novaldex J-77 engines like the one above, but does not have the heavier extra laser cannons and midsection control system like the above two, this is a lighter, fast escort fighter, capable of the same speeds and agility of the A-wings, and on par with the A-wings in firepower.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/N1Mod_zpsf5d666e4.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/N1Mod_zpsf5d666e4.jpg.html)
Pirate Ugly X-wing hull with Y-wing engines, and custom winglet additions, this fighter has the same 4 laser cannons, and a larger complement of missiles, but it is still slower than the standard X-wing, although it is a good deal more reliable than other Uglies.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/XYUgly_zpsa2222316.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/XYUgly_zpsa2222316.jpg.html)

Nice, I like em all. It is so hard to pick one picture to use for the front page update.
-
these are cool, they look like concept drawings
-
Brilliant concepts!! What do you use for markers? I've been inspired a lot by Doug Chiang's work. I can see some of that style here too.
-

I use a mix of markers actually..... for the grays and rust marks, Tombo Dual Brush pens, Grayscale palette and Portraits Palette, and for the colors, Fibracolor markers, and for some of the older renderings in previous pages, a mix of crayola markers and Prismacolor dual tip chisel point art markers.

Update! 5 pictures, more combos and variety!!
Twin X-wing with B-wing engine pod in middle, inspired by the F-82 Twin Mustang Night Fighter.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TwinX-wingUgly_zpsad51a92c.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TwinX-wingUgly_zpsad51a92c.jpg.html)
Imperial Ugly fighter based on a TIE Bomber and AT-ST walker head; there is a quad laser turret on the bottom where the head used to attach to the legs
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/ImperialUglyfighter_zps0d76f2d8.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/ImperialUglyfighter_zps0d76f2d8.jpg.html)
a massive Imperial Ugly gunship, it uses a shuttle front and mid body cut down,with two 3/4s of B-wings attached to the sides, giving it 6 heavy laser cannons and 2 Ion cannons and 2-4x torpedo launchers. the center section houses a much more powerful hyperdrive motivator and generator to enable the craft to keep up with ships.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/ImperialUglyGunship_zps4ec56b39.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/ImperialUglyGunship_zps4ec56b39.jpg.html)
A pair of A-wing mods with V-wing foils, reversed foils so they closes backwards, for better visibility.

Great concepts.
The Twin X-Wing is my favorite.

WOW, these look excellent, I can definitely see a budding designer here, your style reminds me of the Foose's drawings from that custom car show.

Thanks! :) I am a fan of Overhaulin' and Chip Foose..... along with some other artists...heres an update, all Mandalorian!!
A larger shuttle to complement the Aka'jor assault shuttle, based on the Theta T-2C shuttle seen in the end of Revenge Of The Sith, and in Clone wars;
a Light starfighter, smaller and in the A-wing class, with rotating wing panels and turrets housing light laser cannons.
and a Club Tail heavy fighter/bomber, with a crew of 3, no variable geometry wing/engine units, but a far heavier armament than similar sized craft...4 medium cannons situated in two turrets (with gunner in a pod between), and 2 heavy cannons up front, as well as 2 light cannon OR ion cannons, and a warhead complement of 16 in two magazines of 8 each...with two tubes...the front seater is the gunner/navigator, while the middle seat is occupied by the pilot. The design provides a way for the crew to escape without resorting to a pressure suit, though if the cockpit transparency is breached, they have the pressure suits and self sealed systems in such case. the front has an escape unit consisting of the cockpit and two light cannons and small fins, and small rockets, while the rear is basically the whole gun pod with small fin/winglets and small rockets as well.

Very smooth designs! I like 'em.

Very smooth designs! I like 'em.
thanks man!

Sorry it has taken me so long to front page this update. I like it!
-
small update; with some "rival sci fi universe" designs as well..... :P oh and some post apocalyptic sketches! two posts; since I've a few more...
-
and final set I think?
Post apocalyptic vehicles; top one is a motor home ish thing based on an wheeled APC; middle is inspired by soviet BTR-152, but custom built on US chassis (Semi truck tractor), bottom is inspired by a very similar vehicle in Mad Max; the Road Warrior. Then there's the Romulan Transitional designs between TOS Bird of Prey and TNG Warbird; and possibly post TNG/Dominion War..... but not like the Raptor/whatever it was called in Nemesis....
-
Nice. back on the front page.
-
Your Twin X-wing is fantastic. Great piece of art.

Sorry for the long time of not posting updates...here's a bunch and one Star Trek design lol.
First up; a TIE -Courier, based on a TIE bomber hull, and with custom wing modules similar to the ETA-2 but much larger, the Hyperspace system is in the rear, and to the sides, while the Wing modules houses the shield projectors and generators, along with two torpedo tubes and two more cannons; the forward half of the command pod has three seats total, one in the front for pilot, and two behind for passengers, the two seats can be replaced with a bunk, and a smaller seat for a co pilot for a long distance/long mission in which the pilots rotate on shifts while on scouting missions. The foils are similar to those of the TIE-Ln but can fold down for landing, or for normal flying, they open up in combat, or when the systems are overheating.

And here is a TIE custom, with a hyperspace system, new cooling nacelles and folding panels for landing/cooling system, the name is TIE-HVG, As in Hyperspace Variable Geometry.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TIE-HVG_zpsddaeada9.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TIE-HVG_zpsddaeada9.jpg.html)
A custom starfighter, twin hulled, like that of a P-38 Lighting. It has 6 light cannons in the nose of the cockpit pod, and 2 heavy cannons on the hulls, along with torpedo launchers, and A-wing styled thrust vectoring rings and fins.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TwinHullStarfighterVersion2_zps39e6260e.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TwinHullStarfighterVersion2_zps39e6260e.jpg.html)
another custom twin hulled starfighter, but with 4 medium cannons and two heavy cannons on the hulls, while the cockpit pod have a pair of light blasters, and you can see an R-unit in the back of the cockpit pod. Also has two torpedo launchers.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TwinHullStarfighterVersion1_zps5e382770.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TwinHullStarfighterVersion1_zps5e382770.jpg.html)
A rather ugly Pirate starfighter, based on a TIE ball with ARC 170 engine/foil units, and a custom center pod housing the hyperdrive and power generators and R2 unit.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/PirateUglyStarfighter2_zps26b41bf2.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/PirateUglyStarfighter2_zps26b41bf2.jpg.html)
THis is another pirate starfighter, using an early Clone Wars Y-wing front hull with AC 170 engine pods, I added TIE-ln radiator panels to the pods, and gave it another two heavy cannons on the center hull system.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/PirateUglyStarfighter_zps307e5710.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/PirateUglyStarfighter_zps307e5710.jpg.html)
This is an Incom/Corellian collaboration of a small combat shuttle, using Corellian styled front cockpit/pod hull, and three Incom engines, similar to that of the ARC-170 but much larger, the wing panels are shield projectors much like that of the Imperial shuttle, and the lower two can fold up for landing. In the central hull, there are seating for 12 passengers, while the cockpit houses 4 like the Corellian freighters. in the middle is a boarding ramp between the lower two engines, and in the far rear is an airlock for ship to ship docking. the hyperspace systems are in the top of the central hull, with equipment ringing the hull, there are also two cannons and two torpedo launchers on the front of the hull surrounding the cockpit section.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/IncomCombatShuttle_zps43dbd561.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/IncomCombatShuttle_zps43dbd561.jpg.html)
This is a Star Trek universe custom ship, it is based in layout to the Oberth/Grissom class small ship, but with a revised saucer and a Miranda/Reliant styled torpedo pod on the top instead of the bottom, the Saucer section has been revised so as to make more sense compared to the Oberth class in canon.

Wow, great new works of art here. You can see one of em on the front page!

Been busy this late summer.......but had time to draw these four pictures!
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/BobaFettNoir_zpse29ad784.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/BobaFettNoir_zpse29ad784.jpg.html)
Here is the galaxy's infamous/most wanted Bounty Hunter ,done in Noir style with high contrast.....it took me around 5-10 minutes from start to finish on this one...
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/CorellianLightAssaultCraft_zps7e216e55.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/CorellianLightAssaultCraft_zps7e216e55.jpg.html)
Here is a Corellian light assault craft, it is a small ship, as the A-wing and 2-man TIE fighter shows....it is basically a ship to break through Alliance blockades or Imperial blockades without having a big target for them; it is similar in size to a Corellian Light freighter, but with weapons and more powerful engines, no cargo capacity....
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/CorellianStardestroyerheavyfighter_zps636138db.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/CorellianStardestroyerheavyfighter_zps636138db.jpg.html)
This was a commission from a fellow Deviant Art fan, and it is a refinement of a design seen in some comics of "Stardestroyer Fighters", it is made by Corellian Systems and has two seats, and an astromech droid, as befitting a larger fighter than the TIE, it has shield generators, heavy cannons, single torpedo tube, and more powerful engines....I think it is also hyperspace capable...and is a development from the Aethersprite series and used by Imperials when heavily armed and armored fighters are needed and there are no Skipray Blastboats available.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/MandalorianTransportshuttle_zpsa496d5f3.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/MandalorianTransportshuttle_zpsa496d5f3.jpg.html)
And finally, this is a design of Mandalorian Transport shuttle, to replace the aging Theta-2X classes and to supplement the Aka'jor shuttles...it carries 12 Supercommandos and a crew of 3.
Hope you guys enjoyed this update! :) bbfet

Good to see you with an update. Time to take that SD variant to the front page.
-
Been busy with family, life and stuff in general...still didn't stop me from drawing these TIE variants!
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TIE-AdvancedSeriesHypothetical_zpsb2e937bf.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TIE-AdvancedSeriesHypothetical_zpsb2e937bf.jpg.html)
Three TIE Advanced fighters, one is the X-1 (Vader's personal rig) with repaired wing panels that is basically a hint towards the Interceptor shape... then the Interceptor developmental prototype/Advanced X-3A with same wing panels as the repaired X-1, and then the third fighter Prototype has them flipped forward, closer to the final Interceptor shape...however, there's those center panels that are there and reduces the visibility from the cockpit, though augmented by scope sensors on the outside... After a trial period, TIE pilots gave the feedback that the X-3A had better visibility, and that the X-3B was akin to riding a Bantha with Blinders... So the TIE Mod Team removed the center panels and everyone agreed that this was better for both visibility and for reducing sideways profile; and the Imperial Officers agreed that it looked most menacing, and introduced the fighter as the classic Interceptor we all know and love :)
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TIE-EscortFighterBomber_zpsc20e26c5.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TIE-EscortFighterBomber_zpsc20e26c5.jpg.html)
A development of the TIE-GT fighter/bomber with the modified wing panels which now houses assemblies of shield generators and hyperdrive systems...the center hull is based somewhat on the short tube TIE-GT hull (not a sphere), and the wing pylons are similar to the Advanced X-1 but extended the length of the hull to provide more space for machinery and torpedo launch tubes. This is a TIE Escort Fighter/Bomber, with the agility of the A-wing, and the protection level of the X-wing, and a bomb load similar to that of the Y-wing.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TIE-AssaultFighter_zps43c0a6e8.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TIE-AssaultFighter_zps43c0a6e8.jpg.html)
And here is an even larger version; utilizing the same size hull as the TIE-SA bomber (twin hull version), but in an uni-pod shape, with similarly extended pylons which now houses large magazines of torpedoes/bombs and advanced targeting sensors, whereas the 4 cannons on the centers of the wing panels are not laser cannons, but Ion cannons, for use against larger ships and capital ships as well...It also boasts 4 blaster cannons arranged equidistant around the cockpit viewport. It is also hyperspace capable and has powerful shields; and thus is called TIE-Assault craft. The wing panels are similar to the above ships but with Interceptor style dagger points on the front.
-
Good to see you back.
Excellent TIE concepts.
-
Nice, they sure look good on the front page.
-
Those concept airspeeder drawings are awesome. I might use them for a scratch build I'm coming up with. If you don't mind.
-
I love the fett image.
The post with the TIE variants is great! You have really take the details, shading and perspective to the next level on these. I especially like the two views you drew for the center TIE.
What are you using for markers? Don't be afraid to get a couple shades of gray in order to do some deeper shadows. I also find that, depending on the paper you're drawing on, a 2nd time over a spot with the same color marker will deepen the shade as well.

I am using Tombow grayscale palette markers as well as some random brand colored markers for the colors..

And an update...
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/V-TIELightFighter_zpsaad7515f.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/V-TIELightFighter_zpsaad7515f.jpg.html)
V-TIE Light Interceptor design; the front hull is similar to the V-wing from the Clone Wars, while the rear is similar to a TIE fighter, it is basically a much smaller fighter, similar in size to the A-wing fighter, but still using the TIE systems....although because of the size of the TIE systems, the starship builder had to move the cockpit parts forward and add on a front hull to make up for the shrinkage in size...they also made the Radiator panels much smaller, as the engine system has been upgraded to the point that it does not need as much cooling surface for the performance. It boasts 4 cannons as opposed to the two chin blasters of the TIE fighters...
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TIEconcepts_zpsfadc5d48.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TIEconcepts_zpsfadc5d48.jpg.html)
These are three concepts of TIE fighters...the top one is for a New Generation TIE Interceptor, I am not sure how many generations after the ROTJ ones would this be.... the pylons are hexagonal in cross section like Vader's TIE but instead of being perpendicular to the TIE ball, they are swept back by quite a bit, so as to allow better side view for the pilot. The wing panels are now triangles instead of the Interceptor 3-sided shapes. The middle one is my take on the TIE Clutch series mentioned in some EU texts, but redone in such a way that the TIE ball has viewports and side hatches on the sides where normal pylons would be, and the three pylons are placed behind the main ball... this allows the installment of a shield generator and a hyperdrive should one want to... I didn't like how the CGI concepts of the Clutches had the fin placed so close to the top, which would be a problem for the top hatch to open if at all....
And the bottom TIE is basically a redone TIE Fighter, hex panels but bent outwards instead of inwards, and pylons completely different.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TIE-F1_zpsa4aad71a.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TIE-F1_zpsa4aad71a.jpg.html)
Here is a concept for a new series of TIE fighters.. it now has an extended body like the Bomber, with room for machinery and an R series astromech socket...the pylons are now gone, replaced with the body and the large wing like units on each side, which houses the folding radiator foils..it features 4 medium cannons mounted equidistant on the main body, and the capability to actually land without damaging the foils, as well as room enough for a compact shield generator and possibly a small hyperdrive system.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TIE-F2_zpsa7cc38d0.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TIE-F2_zpsa7cc38d0.jpg.html)
This is either a developmental model OR a stripped down version of the above fighter, it now has normal looking TIE ball, but with side mounted blaster turrets and exposed machinery in the rear of the hull. You can now see that the Radiator foils are in the open position, and that there are openings in the wing form, this is to make it a harder target from above and below, while allowing good cooling effect while closed.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TIE-InterceptorNewGeneration_zpsaa80d4b8.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TIE-InterceptorNewGeneration_zpsaa80d4b8.jpg.html)
This is the New Generation Tie Interceptor in a more detailed appearance, you can see how it has a standard TIE ball, and fairly orthodox wing panels but they are triangles instead of 3-sided half-hex shapes, and that the pylons are now swept back from the ball, thus giving the pilot better view to the side on his scopes...with the improvements of the systems, the small size is no longer a constraint on the fitment of a hyperdrive unit or a shield generator, and this enables the fighter to be a better design for the TIE pilots.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/NightshadeInterceptor_zpsc670191a.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/NightshadeInterceptor_zpsc670191a.jpg.html)
This is a random design based somewhat on the elderly Delta-6/Delta-7 design shape, but improved with wing units mounted and folding S-foils housing a laser cannon on each end.. it is also similar to the Naboo Royal Cruiser from The Phantom Menace. It is a simple sleek interceptor ship with nice smooth lines.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/A-ScoutLightMissileInterceptor_zps345f438b.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/A-ScoutLightMissileInterceptor_zps345f438b.jpg.html)
This is a further development of the A-wing line of fighters, extended hull and with the addition of two foils that mounts the missile tubes on each end, this gives the interceptor the ability to carry 8 more missiles of a long range type, and the installment of the laser cannons to the inside of the hull as opposed to the outside takes up the space formerly used to carry the small missiles, but there is still a center missile tube on the bottom and a magazine of 4 in there.. This is a good long range Interceptor design.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/SpadenoseGunship_zps511f00d2.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/SpadenoseGunship_zps511f00d2.jpg.html)
This is a design collaboration between Koensayr (Y-wing) and Kuat Drive Systems to make a heavily armed light craft that can duke it out with Corvettes and Light Cruisers, as well as Convoy Escort ships.. it mounts two Quad laser turrets, two wing mounted cannon turrets, two medium Turbolasers in the nose, two missile tubes with 16 missiles each, and a crew of 4 to 6.... it is called the Spadenose because honestly, it resembles a spade with wings.
-
Great update. Off to share.
-
There are a lot of interesting "ugly"-fighters in your newest update.
Keep it up!
-
been quite busy with life..... new update! :)
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/ARC-171-2_zps4ltwcugh.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/ARC-171-2_zps4ltwcugh.jpg.html)
ARC-171 or 172, single seat ARC type fighter with armored turret for the R-unit; and B-wing type laser cannon mounts on the wings.
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/ARC-180_zpssgnflwqp.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/ARC-180_zpssgnflwqp.jpg.html)
Next Generation ARC fighter/bomber, a replacement for the Y-wing and a complimentary heavy fighter to the new T-70 X-wings, Not sure about the B-wing design being viable for updating yet...
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/Custom%20X-wing%20Fighter%20Bomber_zpshniobupv.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/Custom%20X-wing%20Fighter%20Bomber_zpshniobupv.jpg.html)
Custom X-wing Fighter/Bomber design, side by side seating in the wider cockpit module, and an Y-wing styled nose shape to accommodate two Ion cannons and a heavy Proton torpedo load, the S-foils are a different shape than the X-wing S-foils, the engines are similar to the T-70 X-wing (split cylinder front)
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/Tandem%20X-wing_zps1gbmevsg.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/Tandem%20X-wing_zps1gbmevsg.jpg.html)
Going back to the Original Trilogy era; a tandem 2-seat X-wing trainer/courier with extended hull and 2nd cockpit added ahead of original cockpit
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TIE-Assault%20Transport_zpsxusokmta.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TIE-Assault%20Transport_zpsxusokmta.jpg.html)
TIE Assault Transport design, essentially a TIE version of the LAAT republic gunship...
it is outfitted with a quad turret in the rear, which is flanked by the TIE exhaust ports, and 4 forward firing cannons, with small panels up front, and a large hex shape panel up top. The main hold can house either 4 shock troopers, OR two scouts on their bikes, with a central hatch that can allow the bikes to be dropped with the scouts on them.. It is colored in the new First Order/reborn Empire colors (light colored panels with dark colored spoking and main hull)
(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t70/CamoDeafie/artwork/SciFI/TIE-Gunship%201_zpsxzbvae5x.jpg) (http://s157.photobucket.com/user/CamoDeafie/media/artwork/SciFI/TIE-Gunship%201_zpsxzbvae5x.jpg.html)
And last but not least, a heavily armed TIE Gunship, uses a standard looking TIE ball/pylon up front, but instead of wing panels on the ends of the pylons, there are twin cannon turrets in addition to the chin turret, and due to that, the radiator fins/panels have been moved up to the top/rear area, much like the Assault Transport, but with two extra fins/panels in a sort of K shape. Hope you guys enjoyed this update! :)
-
Wow, love the TIE Stuff. Off to share.
-
Sorry for a long hiatus!!
Been busy with fiancee, life, and other things!
First up, a small Cruiser design, diamond-shaped, might be Corellian, might be Rothana Heavy Engineering...
Next up, a new starfighter; Hammer type...it has a hammerhead style front unit, with two turrets and couple of torpedo tubes, and the rear is very similar to that of the A-wing series.
Third, a Mon-Cal snub fighter, inspired by the Vought Flying Flapjack prototype... Obviously, this is a small fighter in the A-wing size.. but it is a different shape than most fighters.
Finally, a new generation Naboo Starfighter, engines have been moved to the midsection, front T shaped foil has been swept back to a more aggressive angle, and extra guns have been added on the ends of the T shaped foil. I have a few more to post in next post! :)
-
A few more to post! :)
A next generation TIE fighter; saucer shaped hull instead of pylons for more equipment and long range drive systems; as well as landing gear. (two pictures)
Next, a new generation TIE Interceptor; smaller, and with different wing panels
Finally, a small TIE Boarding shuttle with tri-wing design and 3 small autoblaster turrets. Hope you guys enjoyed them!
-
Awesome concepts!! The designs look really cool, and the artwork itself is great.
-
Awesome! Great to see you are still kicking. Time to go share some of this.
-
WOW
I'm glad to see new concepts from you.
You are getting better and better.
-
Thanks all! Here's a few more!
First and third pictures; a development of the Delta and RZ-1 series into a new generation Interceptor.
Second picture, a refinement of the RZ-1 type of A-wing,
And last picture, a series of concept sketches, in the order from top to bottom, a space-faring version of the Space Gunship/Dropship from TCW; with modifications that involves removing the big cannon/rocket launchers on the dorsal side, a new Astromech socket, and Y-wing engine pods. Then a new heavy ship, and lastly, an organic looking starfighter with turrets on it. Kind of looks like a sea ray.
I have more updates after this post!
-
These are all TIE fighter series.
First up, a version of a friend's design called TIE- MOTH; it has different wing panels than the usual one, and the verticals do fold down.
Secondly; a TIE Gunship with old style Advanced/Bomber wing panels, It has three turrets on it, one on each end of the pylons, and one on its chin.
Next up, a visualization of a TIE Crawler MK 2, something I think should have been used instead of sticking tank treads to the ends of the pylons.
It has similar turrets on the pylon ends, and two laser dish cannons over its "shoulders"
Finally; a TIE repulsorlift/hover-vehicle. It is built using scavenged parts, an old TIE fighter ball and cockpit, and some repulsorlift vehicle parts on it. It also have scramjet engines on the back for high speed chases and uses normal TIE laser cannons
Few more updates next post! :)
-
Last update for now!
Another organic fighter; based on dolphin/shark shapes... 4 large ball turrets.
And a Mandalorian Commando. This looks to be masculine in the chest area, BUT the Mandolorian has feminine hips and leg structure...... Remember Captain Phasma doesnt present as a sexualized female. ;)
Last, a woman in a Mandalorian outfit, very much the same appearance of the outfit worn by the late Jango Fett. Yes I did a swatch of marker colors on the paper to see which ones would work best on the paper.
Hope you guys enjoyed this latest series of updates!
-
Man I love that TIE Crawler. Off to share that. I will definitely get more of the rest posted later.
-
Some more designs! :)
A new ARC type fighter is first up; The engines have been moved closer inboard, and the foils are a different shape than the previous iterations.
Next up; an ETA-2 Actis based airspeeder, it uses the central cockpit pod of the old Eta-2 Jedi Interceptor (ROTS era), and new machinery and equipment to make it the equal of the T47 airspeeder line with a roomier cockpit.
Finally, a Y-wing done up in a hybrid of McQuarrie styling and Naboo styling...
-
Nice, I like em all. Off to share!
-
Great concepts, even better than your first ones at the beginning of your thread. Your sketching technique has evolved too.
Always a fan.
-
Really love that new ARC! Good sketching skills!
-
Great new concepts.
-
I remember looking at your pictures and I thought I had also commented on your art, but evidently I haven't, yet.
Your concept art is very remarkable! I'm a big fan of the books "The Art of...", "The Making of..." and the behind the scenes bonus material of the movies, too! So seeing your sketches and blueprints brings goosebumps! You could easily be in the team of Lucafilm and I don't wanna exagerate here.
Your ideas are SO much better than most concepts for the Sequel Trilogy for example, but that's just my opinion.
Thanks for sharing your concepts with us! Leaves a lot of space for inspiration!
Also thanks to FialaFernbrugg for reminding me of this topic.
