Timmon26's Art Thread

[Timmon26]

Figured I'd start a thread for my myriad Kerbal doodles. Feedback and criticism are of course welcome.

To begin...

My latest diabolical creation:

[Thobewill10]

Absolutely brilliant.

[Rawific]

Wow this is great! Represents everything I do in KSP perfectly.

[C7Studios]

I couldn't stop laughing when I saw this. Great work as usual.

[lemonhands]

That's awesome man, the animation is stellar.

[danRosas]

It's so awesome!!

Long ago, when krakens still roamed the solar system, there were several debates as to whether or not to have female Kerbals included in the game. I generally fell on the side of "yes", but after several threads were locked, the community decided to handwave around the issue and say that Kerbals just didn't have genders.

I'm OK with that.

I realized, however, that without seeing any serious attempts to design a female Kerbal (the few comics in which they're featured focus on characterization and don't strictly follow the "Squad style"), the community was basically arguing in the dark.

So I decided that, since I'm the only one I trust to do so, I'd design a female Kerbal for realz.

Here is a side-by-side comparison of a male and female Kerbal, Pioneer Plaque-style.

They're both naked.

DON'T PANIC

I promise you won't go blind.

(They're both bald for the purposes of the exercise, but I drew their hairlines for comparison.)

Hmmm. Could I use this?

What do you have in mind?

[LaydeeDem]

What do you have in mind?

[Timmon26]

I think can help you out there

If you're going to make a plaque that can be stuck on rockets, I can make a texture in the same style as the original if you want.

[Tim_Barrett]

Flawless victory.

Well done.

[MajorSystemError]

[Alephzorg]

[hallothere]

Hey! You're not that far away from our concept drawings!

[Timmon26]

Hey! You're not that far away from our concept drawings!

Well, that's the idea.

It's what I do.

[Alephzorg]

Timmon26, I used your drawing for that one. I know it doesn't look great but I was having fun making it.

Since you actually know how to draw (I only copy and paste...), I'm certain you would come up with something infinitely better.

Yeah, I edited my post on that thread with a link to my image a few minutes before you posted yours.

Here it is...

Let's take the astronaut memorial plaques, change the texture and voilà !

[Alephzorg]

Dammit, they don't have one !

Gonna find something else to mess with.

Hi. I'm the creator of the Astronaut Memorial Plaques.

I have a surprise:

[Alephzorg]

Alright! Where can we get it?

It's not done yet silly. It attaches upside down and backwards.
