BlastWave's Gallery - Airships Over Horoa

[Woodsy 853]

You did a great job on the subs BlastWave! I love the detail of the 3rd one.

[Seerose 4,196]

 @BlastWave! Good job as always.  They are all very pretty.   

[AndrewDavid 669]

Let the exercise begin. No worries @Pixey - I got him in my sights

Hi Blastwave! Very nice images you have here. The colouring in some of them remind me of steampunk, like the dozers. 

[LionsDragon 902]

@AndrewDavid, my friend, the ship looks fantastic but I think your helicopter pilot needs to lay off the espresso! Switch him to decaf so we can see the awesome details.

 

 

[hippiechos 73]

Great subs, @BlastWave! I love the detail.

[Ishi 192]

These works seriously need to be promoted to the PDN hall of fame. These are just above amazing.

[BlastWave 203]

Thank you everyone!

@AndrewDavid Looks like we're gonna have to take this fight to land!

@BlastWave. those tanks are awesome! ...What is on the front of the bottom one that looks like a cowcatcher? (Sorry, I don't know much about tanks. )

I think they are used to clean the way from buried mines.

[Pixey 4,361]

Amazing Tanks @BlastWave - the detail is top notch .

[lynxster4 2,936]

Great work @BlastWave!       I think we are now ready for our invasion!!    

[hippiechos 73]

Great tanks! I love the details and you are a marvel at shading. 

[BlastWave 203]

Thank you everyone!

 

@LionsDragon The "cow-catcher" at the front of the tank is what Eli said it is. It is a mine-plow which is used to push forward dirt and clear mines in front of it, preventing said mines from rolling underneath the treads and detonating. Here is an image of the real life M1A1 "Abrams" Main Battle Tank equipped with a mine plow mounted to it's front.

There is also "mine rollers" which do effectively the same thing.

I'm back after some time! Here's some of my new work. I've been experimenting with perspective and a few other new effects and tricks.

 

 

 

 

Space warships in transit.

 

 

And finally, here is a little bonus.

 

 

A DeLorean DMC-12.

So...a mine-catcher instead of a cow-catcher. I like.

 

Great new work! So...you've been getting ready to defend PDNation from alien invasion?

 

 

[barbieq25 946]

@BlastWavemay I borrow the DeLorean? I can have it back by yesterday

 

Nice new works. It is good to see you experimenting & growing in work style. The one with the spaceships over head & the dude near the car is especially good. You put a lot of thought into the perspective in this one. The other works are also top notch.

[Seerose 4,196]

 @BlastWave! Very great new work.  Thank you so much.  

[BlastWave 203]

Thank you @LionsDragon @barbieq25 and @Seerose !

 

@AndrewDavid I think you'll find your red squadron of F-20 Tigersharks will be stopped by my specialized airborne railgun and naval fighter wing before they can take out my tanks.

Very nice! They remind me of sharks ready to strike

Thank you! They do look a bit like sharks, now that I look at them.

Here's a new scene. A Russian cosmonaut and his pet drone standby for a rescue helicopter next to his Vostok space capsule after a rough landing somewhere in Kazakhstan.

Wow...all these space pics.     I may have to break out some DVD's and watch some classic sci-fi!  

[Seerose 4,196]

 @BlastWave!

 

Your last work is also very excellent.  Thank you so much.  

[Pixey 4,361]

Amazing images from you - once again .

[BlastWave 203]

Thank you everyone!

 

Here are two fighter jet profiles I made a few weeks back, I think I'm going to do a few more of these soon.

 

 

[lynxster4 2,936]

Great fighter jets @BlastWave.    You've got great detail in these.
