Space Pirates!

inspired by the eyepatch in http://www.furaffinity.net/view/295653/

this is a scene from the bridge of Science Vessel A-421. Vulpine Pilot listens to music on his wrist computer as carnage takes place meters behind him. I really enjoyed drawing this ^_^

there are a couple messups, but in all I like the picture.

yay weird and cool perspective. Im posting it like this to show the lack of an "up" in space. I mean the ship is right side up for the viewer.

anyways, Vulpine Pilot watches out the window from Deck 2 while an alien vessle docks.

I guess Deck Two is near the middle of the station, cuz thats a small ring. or something. anyways, I liked 2001 A Space Oddessy :P

My friend Anon was drawn by another of his friends for his B-day. I was so envious of the picture. I wished I could draw a non-anthro dragon so well, specifically, Anon. well, after envying the Artist's skill (I dunno where his gallery is at) that envy suddenly, changed. it changed to inspiration. I scrapped the first attempt to draw this dragon on this cliff, but the second attempt was much to my liking ^_^

the Water and sky are photoshoped (sorta). I didnt want to kill my pens more than I already had.
at any rate the moon is so accurate because I googled a picture of it XD and copied from the pic.

anyways, enjoy this pic ^_^
I guess its a late B-day present for one of my favourite draggons :3

Meh, not my best use of my markers. Jaiko has been asking me to draw him for a looong time. I mean I am his friend after all, and he tells me he loves how I draw dragons. after I drew Hex, I promised him the next Dragon I drew would be him.

I actually got the pose for this from some random Levis Ad. I think it was an australian ad. I KNOW it wasnt american. but yeah inspriation hit me and I did that potrait Jaiko has been wanting for so long.

More fun with my markers. Im getting the hang of them. Belive it or not this was inspired from a character's boots in Trigun Max #9. I was going to have him jumping from a fire exit in a city, complete with grafitti on the wall behind him.... but I changed my mind and set him someplace that suits him.

Im told I'm fairly good at capturing action. thing is I had to use the same pose in a different setting. he WAS jumping down through the air, so I had to make it to the pose still made sense. nice trail of dust fixes that ^_^

I started this during my vacation in Vermont with my new pens. So far its the most Ive used them. I liked how this came out a lot. When I scanend it, I prefered leaving the colour in rather than revertin it to greyscale (which made Photoshop run slower). The woods in the Green Mountains are sure different from the woods here in Colorado.

The chute suit is worn while riding a hoverbike. I've had the concept in my head for years now. I just finally decided to totally revamp the concept and make it "look cool."

The forsleeve unzips so you can done the armor... I dunno if youve ever tried to slip your hand through something fitted to yer writs, it doesnt work. you gotta have it open, even if its still attached to the suit.

My character Vulpine-Pilot on his hoverbike. its hard to identify Vulpine Pilot without his scouter and wrist computer, but he does remove them when he flies to and from the hangar.

This is the first picture I shaded with these markers my mom got for me. I'm still getting the hang of them even now, but I like em.

I hate how this came out. it looks like he is ready to cut his arm. foreshortening is sooo hard. once I shaded it with markers, it looked better though. this is the schmexy biker cougar again, sans jacket. enjoy

This lil fox's suit is based mostly on Snake's sneaksuit obviously. well that was the inspiration anyways. I added a buncha stuff to lower possible reflection of light. like the lil screens in front of the ears.

My buff horsie character Cabás posin' for yas at a fence. I like how it came out.

Cabás is © Vulpine Pilot

YAY! I finally got a new scanner! and so here is my first upload with it.
I decided Cougars are teh sexy, and went about teaching myself to draw them :D
so here is my Schmexy Biker Cougar. I hope ya'll think he is as schmexy as I think he is XD.

I thought up the composition of this picture upon glancing at my best friend's sword. I stopped drawing the piece I was working on and did this, start to finish. shaded with his pencils.

'tis an anthro dragon midflight. I really like how this came out. Dragons are soooooo fun to draw. though I shoudla saved it a little larger so as to include more detail especially of the scales on his back. ah well. mebbe Ill post a higher res version somewhere else eventually...

mkay its The Cube redux. this is my world. the stone cube in the air is me, the hand craft wooden ladder leaning on the cube is my friends. the domestic Painted horse standing calmly beneath the cube is my lover. the tiny blue wildflowers are muy children. and the storm clouds in the distance are my problems.

the book this is from, The Cube, has fairly accurate descriptions on what each of these symbols means.

I seriously tried to copy Miyazaki's style that he drew Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind in (tha manga). then I forgot that. I saw it in my sketchbook and thought "what does that remind me of...? oh I know: Nausicaa! wsaitsec..."
guess I did a good job.
