Well, here's a tank I drew and scanned in with my scanner.

Took me about an hour and a half. I'm afraid I really don't have any skill with this. Was going to try and make it look better in the Gimp, but that failed so here's the original:

It's mostly been created from my imagination using tank pictures in a blitzkrieg book as references.

well the upper part of the tank looks nice but that "wheelthingy" (I dont know the english word for that)
is bad

i am drawing in photoshop again. its not done yet. all brightblu = undone. what do you think?

You creating one of those camper-van type vehicles?

And I couldn't get the wheels of the tank quite as nice as I would have liked sadly.

As a line art type drawing, it's not very good, but for a comic style it would be pretty decent.

schlurbi · Sun Feb 01, 2009 5:55 pm

about which pic you talk?

Ogris · Sun Feb 01, 2009 6:00 pm

Lightsaber hilt is too low res

6/10 would look again.

Skillers · Sun Feb 01, 2009 6:00 pm

Mets.

Yours is good, is it a trace vector or a copy (copying an image but not tracing)?

schlurbi · Sun Feb 01, 2009 6:05 pm

i have the original pic opened on my desktop, but drawing on my own

The beam or the weapon itself?

The weapon is the spy's knife. Complain to Valve.

And Skillers, it wasn't intended to be cartoony or uber-realistic, just kind of in-between.

I'm kind of out of my depth here, I'd like to know if there's anything I can do to make what I draw look a bit better.

Hilt=Grip.

Hippie van is coming along nicely.

Wait... Spy has a lightsaber now? 100% instant kills with stabs? Prepare for much complaint and rage over overpoweredness....

Yea Schlurbi that is really looking nice!

Practice makes perfect.

all work i made today is gone. i was playing a bit Tf2 and left Photoshop opened and didnt saved it, i only wanted to play a bit, but then my pc died and all work from today is gone now it looks like that again:

Skillers · Sun Feb 01, 2009 9:50 pm

Wait, wait, you posted an image of what you'd done but hadn't made a psd save of that!? Madness, always save!

schlurbi · Sun Feb 01, 2009 9:59 pm

yeh. i saved a jpg to post. but not the psd which i am working on. who could mind that TF2 will crash after a few minutes? :'(

gotta do all again. i was even working on it after i posted

i want to finish that as quick as i can, i will work the whole day on it tomorrow.
i know my next picture aswell ^^

Lol mate, the last one was funny lol. But great job both of the oics looks awesome.

schlurbi · Mon Feb 02, 2009 1:37 pm

how does it look now?

Lord Metritutus · Mon Feb 02, 2009 4:29 pm

It's looking good, but perhaps you could make your own thread rather than trying to hijack my one with your clearly better skill.

schlurbi · Mon Feb 02, 2009 4:38 pm

lol sorry. i have my own Thread called Vector. but only Skillers was watching it.

i thought i can put some of my art in here ^-^
