Description
Hi. Got around to reinterpreting another piece of Homeworld concept art.This time it's the Guardian Angel of Hiigara, holding the planet in her hands and protecting it with her wings, forming the Angel Moon logo in the process. (That's also why the wings are so oddly bent.)
She's also wearing a flight suit, as she's a kind of figurehead for the Hiigaran star fleet.
Did this really late at night and added the color just because the original b&w seemed a little bland and... sad. So please excuse the less-than-inspired color job. Might redo that when I'm more awake.
Cheers.

"The clans were united and a massive colony ship was designed. Construction would take 60 years. It would demand new technologies, new industries and new sacrifices. The greatest of these was made by the scientist...
Karan Sjet
...who had herself permanently integrated into the colony ship as its living core.
She is now Fleet Command."
Beautiful work.

Having read some of the backstory for the Homeworld universe, I'm pretty sure a lot of Hiigarans view Karan S'jet this way.
Nice pic.

Have you considered putting this on shirts or making posters? We need amazing art like this to show we love Homeworld.

Awesome work man. Homeworld is definitely one of the most artistically inspired media productions ever made, and the fact that you can create something like this is proof of that.

Beautiful. I don't think she's Karen, though... Wasn't she bald or something?

I love how you played with the wings... Very representative... Any chances that she's Karen S'jet?

Absolutely beautiful. I need to agree with AguilaDeAcero, it really does caputure a certain essence of the game. But one quick question is it a painting or digital painting?

Oh never mind didn't catch the digital art part, woops. Now I'm off to play Homeworld!

Ah,da gab es so manche Diskussion darΓΌber, aber es hat sich mit der Zeit einiges an Beweismaterial angesammelt, dass fΓΌr menschliche "Aliens" spricht. (hauptsΓ€chlich concept art, aber auch die Tatsache, dass wir im 2. Teil Karan Sjet genauer zu sehen bekommen.)

Great Pic! i remember old times playing HW, and this image perfectly captures the mood & feeling of the game.

Oh gorgeous. I told you such in IRC.
I doubt the color job is as bland as you say. It really puts the focus on her wings and her hands holding the planet. Maybe a little touch-up on the shadows on her face, but I can't really think of any other nitpicks.
Ya know, with a little touching up I can see this becoming a neat noseart image for a Hiigaran battlecruiser.

That is awesome... and not just artistically. I think Homeworld has one of the most fantastic stories and settings. The whole concept of the picture is just great.
