Description I haven't done a sketch of a SPACE GAL in a while... so I thought I take a break from drawing TELLOS bad guys to do another young woman in a space suit on a barren and foreboding alien world. Some folks have pointed out to me that her ship looks a bit like a penguin. I guess I'd have to agree....

Love your work. May I use your "Space Girl" image at Fiction Science Gallery (ficsci.com)? I am asking various artists to do a version of a character named "Girlien" and your Space Girl is in the vicinity. I also wanted to introduce myself because FicSci will be doing a Sci Fi Cheesecake show in May of 2017 and we are in the process of looking around for artists to feature in that exhibition. At ficsci.com you can see where the gallery is in San Francisco and what it looks like and get an idea of what Fiction Science is about. 

Cheers!

very nice drawing. I love this retro-sci-fi genre.

one criticism: her calf muscles look too small. is this because of low gravity?

I don't know if you've answered this in your blog or not, but how long do your sketches generally take? because your sketches always look so much better than my finished pieces :sob:

Ringo, the design of the ship is to fool the natives of the planet. Who knows, they may flock to the great metal penguin and give homage to the great quack quack... Love this sketch.

I love the spaceship, it looks sorta like a penguin

Nice work as always!

Any advice for someone trying to up their game? lol. Any good practice?

Keep up the good work!

Chat-Field-Pirate [2007-07-25 17:14:37 +0000 UTC]

it looks great, but because the way you have the moon, it sort looks like she has three hips. Just a weird tanga from it. But it looks great other then that.

I always loved how futuristic blaster guns tend to look like ducks.

And a penguin spaceship is awesome regardless.

Someone should do one where the sound effect for one of these blasters is:

"QUAAAAAACCK!"
