Who was the artist that did those comic-book-esque pictures here... they were REALLY good... I think they were generally of ships - i.e. Voyager I think he was going to do one of Seven of Nine!?!

Well, I don't know about the really good part...but I think you're talking about me...I've got two starship pics and a 7 of 9 pic at www.alanfore.com in the sci-fi gallery.

How did you get on with the Steamrunner one? I want to buy it before I get married and my wife tells me I can't. 8)

It's still a lovely pencil drawing sitting on a shelf in my studio. One of several projects consigned to creative limbo for the moment (along with a pencil drawing of the Akira). If I can figure out a way to convince myself that it will help get me business by putting in my upcoming mailer, I'll do it Otherwise I have to get some projects done that will get me some jobs.

Aban! Yes! I loved your pictures. They were very nice!
I think I prefer your sort of drawings to fan CGI a lot of the time. There is something more REAL about your pics than fan CGI - maybe it has to do with you have light interacting correctly with your hulls

LOL! Yah...well, the lighting is definitely something that's difficult ot get right. I probably exaggerate the glow of the nacelles and deflectors...but *some* dramatic lighting is fun to do
Someday...ah yes, someday I swear I'll get to do these things for money

BWAAAHAHAHA! Oh...that was good.
So, Andrew...did want to ask me something in particular, or were you just looking for those pieces?

oh man if you ever do an akira let me know. i would want a poster-size copy.
Posted by AndrewR (Member # 44) on :
No, no Aban, nothing in particular. I could remember who did them. And I remember you mentioned that you were doing some more pictures... a while back - I wondered if you had completed anymore? They are very nice.
Posted by Aban Rune (Member # 226) on :
Well, I appreciate it. And knowing that people are waiting on them will hopefully give the little boost I need to get off my butt and do them I'll do my best to work them into the rotation
