Voila! My entry for the SKRIBBLE contest! I dunno why, but the moment I saw the original set of lines I knew I was gonna paint a sci-fi...even though I NEVER paint sci-fi. I enjoyed working on this and hopefully it will encourage me to do more sci-fi stuff in the future (and kick it up a notch since my gallery is severely lacking in badass robots and machinery).

Painted entirely in Photoshop 6 with a Wacom Graphire 3 pen tablet on a quiet Sunday afternoon.

This should win!! I like the minimalism - the sole brilliance lighting up something foreboding.

One of the best pics I have seen in a long time

Eeeeh I love the colours!! They give me a sense of wonder (and also a sense of "oh it would be really cool to have that spacesuit and that pink light stick thingie" *_*) I can imagine there's a story behind this, and that's always reeeally nice :'D You kicked that scribble's ass, I hope you win!!!!

Oh wow, this is beautiful!
I really love your choose of colors, purple and green go very well together~
I also love the depth in this drawing, you can really feel/see how tiny that person must be against those rocks.
It looks so mysterious, it's gorgeous!

I'm rooting for you, this is awesome!

the original sketch had oranges and pale turquoise (almost white) but then i decided not to use those cuz i use them a lot in other stuff. now i think teal and magenta might be my new fave colour combo!

i LOVE sci-fi, but i never draw it. drawing machinery and robots makes me cry, so i cheated with this one and just drew a guy in a space suit!
