Artist's Comments

This was done as a full page black and white illustration for the Halcyon pen and paper RPG from Neuwerld Studios which you can read more about here if a sci-fi RPG of this nature interests you. Personally I don't play anything of this type, but from the Codex and other things I've gleaned from the project, it's looking pretty cool.

This essentially depicts the orbital space tether in the game, which is used for all sorts of spacey things. It connects in San Antonio, Texas and has 8 mag-lev trains that run along the circumference of the Skylift to transport people and supplies.

It was quite a bit of fun to do something more technical in nature and in 3-point perspective, but it also proved to be a pain. Especially when I saved over it at a lower resolution and had repair and touch up much of it.

If you're interested in my rough orthographic drawings for this, check them out here.

Anyway, hope you guys enjoy it. More work coming soon.

P.S. I know someone's going to mention the size, location, and orientation of the moon, so let me just say... I know, I know. I took some artistic liberties for the sake of the composition.

:lol: Moon. Who cares about where the moon is? It's artistic changes for the better!

Amazing job as always ;D Great job with perspective. I thought the spacecraft was 3D model for a sec.

Haha, thanks bud. It gets tedious constantly making selections to make it clean and 3D model-ish, but in the end the form reads pretty well.
