James Duke Posted October 26, 2011 Report Posted October 26, 2011 Some more space pics I've done. Quote
HossC Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 Nice work James. I think the blue/green planet in the 2nd pic is my favorite. Quote
James Duke Posted October 27, 2011 Author Report Posted October 27, 2011 Thanks It's my favorite planet one. I like the first nebula the best though. Quote
MaryAnne Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 Nicely done! I like that second planet pic too. You'll forgive me if I say I hear Patrick Stewart's voiceover in my head here... "Space. The final frontier..." (you can put Shatner's in there too but these pics remind me more of Star Trek: TNG's opening titles LOL) Quote
Meadowmufn Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 I like the third one, especially the aurora borealis at the pole. Quote
RogerDuke Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 I know a little bit about a lot of things but only know a lot about two things....and those two things are astronomy and The Dukes of Hazzard. It's nice to see astronomy stuff on the HazzardNet! Great job James! Quote
James Duke Posted October 29, 2011 Author Report Posted October 29, 2011 Thanks everyone Unfortunately my trial of Photoshop expired and until I get money to get the version I used, I can't make anymore space pics. All I have left is a very ancient version of Photoshop elements xD and it sucks for stuff like that. But in the meantime, it's pencil and paper time!In a couple of months I should hopefully have the good one again and a better tablet too. Quote
James Duke Posted November 27, 2011 Author Report Posted November 27, 2011 Been busy practicing realistic drawings. Kinda getting bored with my cartoonish ways of drawing people/things lol.Anyhoot, since I've been in a Beatles mood the last couple of months, I decided to try my hand at drawing one of them. The Beatle I chose to draw this time around, was George Harrison.The first pic is the drawing and the other is the original. All I used was a .5 mm mechanical pencil and a black crayola colored pencil. Not sure how long it took, but either way, I'm happy. My practicing is finally paying off. Only thing I've noticed wrong, was I kinda messed up on his eye and his hair isn't highlighted in the right places, the shading is off in a couple of places and some other little things, but otherwise, it's as close as I can manage right now. Next month = new tablet and new Photoshop, so I can kiss pencils and paper goodbye! Gonna try my hand at sculpting too. Just need to get money for the clay, tools and oven.... >.<Pics will come of my sculptures whenever I get to make them. Quote
TRPColtrane95 Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 wow I like space and planets and I like second picture because look so beautiful picture and I like bit dark more perfect. Quote
James Duke Posted November 29, 2011 Author Report Posted November 29, 2011 Thanks Glad you like them. Quote

James Duke Posted April 29, 2012 Author Report Posted April 29, 2012 Got some new stuff for anyone who wants to see it Quote
MaryAnne Posted April 29, 2012 Report Posted April 29, 2012 Nice! I like them all, really like the planet with the rings. Stare at that long enough and I realize I am but a speck in the greater scheme of things... Deep Thoughts by MaryAnne. LOL Quote
Meadowmufn Posted April 29, 2012 Report Posted April 29, 2012 I like the sun/star. I'd hate to be living on that little planet though. Toast city. LOL. Quote
James Duke Posted May 1, 2012 Author Report Posted May 1, 2012 Thanks guys I'm glad you like them! Quote
Brian Coltrane Posted May 2, 2012 Report Posted May 2, 2012 My favorite is the little flying space varmint. Very unique creature design, and a brilliant use of color. Quote
James Duke Posted May 7, 2012 Author Report Posted May 7, 2012 Thanks The dragon is one of my faves. I'm currently working on a comic that I hope to post online in the future. If all goes well, I'll post some pages here later. I'm also gonna give a try at animations again. Got some ideas I wanna try out :3 Quote
RogerDuke Posted May 8, 2012 Report Posted May 8, 2012 I like the sun/star. I'd hate to be living on that little planet though. Toast city. LOL.You're very talented James. I've seen a lot of your work and it amazes me every time. Hey MM, Venus is going to transit (pass in front of) the Sun on June 5th. It will look a little like that from our perspective but can only be seen with proper eye protection. Quote
James Duke Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Posted May 8, 2012 Thanks Roger I just did a few animations of a couple of my OCs. Here's the one I'm most happy with. It's a lot smoother than the other.I can't wait til the transit. Hopefully it'll be clear where I am so I can watch it. Gonna make my little sun watching device a few days before the transition. If they call for clear skies that is lol. Might still make it anyway, just in case. Quote
RogerDuke Posted May 9, 2012 Report Posted May 9, 2012 My favorite is the little flying space varmint. Very unique creature design, and a brilliant use of color.I know what you mean Brian. There's just something about that drawing that made me want to click on it again tonight. I don't know how to describe it. I don't often use the word enchanting but that word sure fits. Quote
