Spacecraft personifications

[BlueRose]

Lol no worries, I can navigate my way through Pixiv. I'm not exactly skilled at Japanese, but I can survive most websites. That said, it may be time to try my pathetic 'shopping skills again, since there's lotsa craft that are unloved. I'm not posting it if it sucks, though - I handle my own quality control. :thumbup:

 

[River Crab]

Awright!
LURKER X-TREME BlueRose joined the party!:rofl:
Don't worry if you think it sucks, we want these designs down (see first post). You (or someone else) can always do it again better.
I really want to see some more stuffs from around here!

Also, scans uploading now!

Punch it!

Atlantis, ET, and one SRB. This is actually 2 images composite for comparison. not sure about the SRB nose cone and ET collar/hat, but the Orbiter design is coming along. Notice parts of EMU and really messy SSME.

Atlantis OMS circularisation burn. Not sure about the EMU sleeve/armwarmer things. SSME are hard to draw!

Atlantis, more-or-less nominal SRB sep. Messy but you get the idea.
Also, don't worry, I haven't forgotten the XR2.
You know how I drew the RCS on her? The next image will be Killrot.

:WTF: Even I'm scared of this thread now...


P.S. Not insulting your art, though. That's bang on. :thumbup:

 

[BlueRose]

The heck are you scared of this thread for? It's amusing enough to awaken the lurker.

*fires up Inkscape*

 

[River Crab]

"Bang on?" :lol:
Don't worry, Killrot will make total sense.
And yeah, this thread is getting pretty hardcore. This is like the Naisu no Mori of O-F threads. What an awesome movie.

I loved that clusterfrack of a movie. No one knew what the heck was going on. :lol: ("HOOOOOOOOME ROOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!")

I was thinking this thread was more like the /jp/ of Orbiter-Forum, though. All you need is a bird cooking spaghetti and exactly 1 more Touhou fan.

Speaking of that, on the top right of the star personifications, is that a certain ingenious ice fairy?? :shifty:

 

[River Crab]

She is the strongest.

...with masses up to 150 times that of the Sun, [LBVs] approach the theoretical upper limit for stellar mass, making them among the most luminous, hottest and most energy-releasing stars in the universe.

So like this:

 

[ar81]

For some reason I do not like chibi characters. I like the old classic American comics style. So I decided to revamp the original.

 

[River Crab]

And just...OUT OF NOWHERE! This thread is rolling!
This is the Ravenstar that will PIERCE THE HEAVENS!
:hotcool:

 

[River Crab]

バクハ！
BAKUHA!

This one is more chibi than any before. Actually the opposite of ar81's, she's pretty つるぺた。 Ripped off from a picture of Yamame.

But hey, ar81, will this be a one-off or would you think of doing more?
Your lines are very true and concise, not like mine which are all over the place. I'd love to see more from you. :thumbup: Collaboration!

 

[Izack]

Nice pictures, both ar81 and River Crab. Veeery different takes.

@Ar81: Very clean, and excellently shaded. Do you draw much? I saw a Deltaglider image floating around here drawn by you, it's also very nice.

@River Crab: :rofl: 'Watch your hydrazine there!! You'll blow up the hangar like that!'
Priceless expression. I might steal that as an MSN avatar... :hide:

:thankyou:

With colour now, not blurred!

I did it all in Photoshop because I honestly can't use any vector things. Which sucks, and takes long.

Anyone who can do vectors, plzplz help me!

Nice I might want to contribute but I can't think of anything chibi without putting a pedo bear in the picture :shifty: and I can't draw with any other style than chibi so...

 

[Voyager]

I am currently working on my own version of the shuttle and SRB's and tank. Warning: Tank may be very fat.

 

[Izack]

My printer is awesome. :beathead:

My Voskhod might take a loooong time to upload, sorry.

Chibi is fine. :thumbup:
A cat is fine too. :rofl:

LOL we'll see about that. You can forget about sense of scale, as long as the whole stack is proportionally the right height relative to each other. Not sure if I have the skills to draw the entire STS stack integrated.

Maybe you could re-create in create.swf?

I'm currently trying to figure out what the G42 Starliner will look like. So far all I have is visor=shades, large wings, streamlined, plus the personality stuff from before. It's pretty hard since there's nothing complete about her. Any input would be appreciated, especially from Moach!

Maybe you could have them standing together in a sort of super-sentai group pose? :rofl:

I tried... Create.swf has neither blankets nor Vostok Equipment Module. :lol:

I'll consider that a request! :thumbup:

I'm amazed that that's all you needed! Can you give me the DNA?

Also, here's the G42 so far:

G42 Starliner

• Helpful, offers to carry payloads
• Flexible, can take off from any sufficiently long concrete runway and fly to her launch point
• Gentle reentry- dives rather than cannonballs
• The odd one out, and the "new kid" (especially to XR2)
• Accepts suggestions well (I know from experience )
• Open and not secretive at all (open source)
• She's Brazilian. She's used to having people messing with her. :lol::shifty:
• Favourite joystick: Saitek X52 Pro+Saitek Pro Pedals
• Favourite book: Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (I'm just guessing from her name here)
• Good singer?*

* From the dev thread:

i imagine the turbo-rocket engines would sound like the utmost tower of all that is awesome in this earth and near systems :headbang:

Moach, are you a sci-fi fan, or anything notable you are a freak about? What game are you working on right now? Not to or anything, but I think it might help to know a bit more about the developer. As they say, like father like daughter...

 

[Izack]

Well, considering I didn't save it... and it sort of just looked like Cirno with blond hair and antennae anyway.

Here's a description:
- Blond hair with green eyes (no reason for that choice, really :shrug
- Wears a white shirt and green skirt (The R-7 Vostok)
- Hooked antennae, like those on top of the Sharik
- I considered placing a chef-like hat on her like the Voskhod secondary retro package, but decided against it. It looked too silly.
- Either holding or sitting on the equipment module while it floats around (like a hovering chair :lol
- Always has a blanket over her head (the thermal blankets the spacecraft were wrapped in.) Think of it as a Linus-style safety blanket.

On a side note, I've never made a post anything like this on any forum. Never thought I would, either. Especially not for a spacecraft!

:hail:

 

[River Crab]

:goodposting:

OK, not quite the same but here's my interpretation.

Bad scan...she is pretty much just the Sharik, but I kept a lot of the stuff you listed. Just imagine fairing separation and she comes out!

Also, try and figure out the name at the side. I think it's pretty clever, myself. Although probably no one can read it.
