    There is something about purple and space themes. It squeezes my heart in a good way.

    You’ve done it again, Lay! Love your work!

    I think a neat one would be an orbital shipyard with a half built bahemoth.

        Do you mind sharing your process? Do you usually trace different parts of existing images? Are you free-handing? Do you use some sort of image converter as a starting point?

          You can call it free-handing (i just look at things and simplfy them when drawing kind of thing). I do share some Wip screenshots on Mastodon and sometimes i do timelapse videos too.
          For this particular artwork here’s a wip screenshot

          I start with black&white values to begin with, then when I have a solid composition, I start adding colors.
