Description I can finally show my latest art done for IMAGINEFX magazine issue 83 special SCIFI art!
"paint sci-fi art on anEPIC SCALE"
it goes with a full tutorial as well

People ask me a lot about "how do I do it?"
so here is an answer for you!

there's a ton of work in this one , so be sure to get it!
you might learn a thing or two with the video that I recorded of my process in the included DVD...not to mention some custom brushes...
(if you get the digital copy ,I'm not sure you'll get those extras )

you can buy the issue there: (EDIT: sorry sold out!)
[link]
mag infos here:

there's also an amazing video of what's in this issue here:
[link]

EDIT: you still can find the digital version here: [link]

a little background story for all scifi story lovers out there:

"this ship is leaving for a dangerous journey deeper into a strange nebula , where some alien activity were detected 10 years ago...this ship was specially build for that mission...
it's called "BEHEMOTH" and was build to face any dangerous radiations or danger it could encounter..."

Je me sens un peu bΓͺte Γ  commenter une image aussi fascinante ! mais j'ai quand mΓͺme envie de dire tout le bien que j'en pense et toute l'admiration qu'elle suscite chez moi.
J'aime spΓ©cialement l'aspect anguleux et acΓ©rΓ© de la 'geule' du vaisseau.
les personnages Γ  l'avant plan donnent une bonne Γ©chelle de taille et accentue le gigantisme du vaisseau. Cette image est vraiment une rΓ©ussite !

Everyone thinks its cool to be in one of those great ships but there is a problem.
Do you realize how long it would take a flight attendant with one of those small snack carts to carry food from the rear of the ship to the front?

Well done.
