So much power in one scene , it's amazing , I am stunned. Any tips on how to achieve this kind of epicness?

Have nothing static. The camera is at an angle, so are the major elements, making the scene appear dynamic and off balance.

Nice. Β If there's one genre that's rare it's Hyperion based art, especially of the Shrike.

Β Love this! I've just discovered this series and amΒ reading the last book, and have to admit, I could never quite put my mental finger on what the Shrike really looked like.Β (MostlyΒ because it is described as being covered in razor wire and that always throws me.)Β This is totallyΒ what it looks like!

Glad you like it! It was described as big and chunky, but I thought a machine so far advanced would have a more elegant, organic aspect.

Perhaps it should slow down a bit before doing so.

would make a Bad ass fight in a movie just alien blood and explosions and bullets.
Plot twist the bullets can make a explosion due to the electrical sandstorm.

I think they might be making it!

Most perfect ever reaction.

Thats quite awesome, the Shrike what lept to mind when I glimpsed the picture. Β Certainly fits the bladed "you are definitely going to die" image.
I just stumbled upon your artwork again, how's the Birrin book coming along? Β Really love the creatures you've created. You don't have a donate button on your website for all the times I've used your drawings as wallpapers on my desktop?

Thanks! The birrin are coming along... Slowly, so perhaps in time
I never considered a donate button...

Although all I would say is already said by other commentators, I just couldn't pass around this work without a word. It strikes terror, but yet is attractive, elegant and - believeable, in the measure that makes spectator to interact.

Nice! One of my favorite sci-fi series.
