Immediately after creating my previous sketch (Forearm and Fist), I wanted to do something a little more technical with more light variation. For whatever reason, I chose to draw a spaceship; however, just a few minutes into the drawing, I lost interest. I think that lack of interest shows pretty significantly too. The perspective is bad and the contrast isn’t correct, but at least I had some fun drawing the background, which started out as dots and slowly became a bit more interesting (sort of like that famous photo that the Hubble telescope took). I had a tough time deciding on the light source, which was intended to be the light “engine” part toward the top back of the ship, but then I realized how problematic that would be in space, so it doesn’t look very natural. Oh well, at least the next drawing is much more interesting….
