Print number 2 ya'll!

I had to do Starfox this year, because it's one of my favorite games that ever existed. It was special because the premise is so simple, but the plot is so neat.

I wanted to capture the time period between the end of the Lylat Wars and foreshadowing into Adventures, which is why Krystal is pictured. (Plus she's a fan fave.) So the majority of the image is heavily based off the Lylat wars, and that's why Krystal is still in it. I was inspired by the original Star Wars movie poster.

And that's not a Photoshop Lens Flare, I did that myself. No filters other than grain in this one, folks!

This will be an 11x17 print this year! Enjoy!

Your work is stunningly amazing! But something threw me off on this piece, because it feels so close to perfect! I think it's because the characters feel like they're floating, they don't strong enough shadows underneath them to show their placement (and especially on Crystal's left foot, she has a shadow behind her going parallel with the lighting on her leg. I also think Peppy and Slippy need to be thrown in a darker blue-er shadow, as well as the piece of mountain their walking on, to show depth.

Your later work is incredible, but I had to pick this one apart : D Kudoes!
