Colors by me! This is a killer cover, David. I had a lot of fun with it! I'm really curious to hear what you had in mind for the colors -- probably something completely different and far more awesome!

Updated. I can't even remember what I had in mind colour wise... my mind has been a little pre-occupied dealing with some personal matters. You did a bang up job though.

P.s. You need to post some art in your dA gallery!!!

Hi David, A while back you told me what program you use to create perspective grids to speed up the drawing process, but I've forgotten the name of it. Would you mind reminding me? I find constantly drawing up grids tedious and time-sapping.
Thanks in advance,
Matt

davidyardin In reply to PrisonerOnEarth [2010-02-05 05:34:28 +0000 UTC]

I didn't really use any perspective grids on this one. I do use google sketch-up in lieu of perspective grids in some of my other work.
