Description
024: FamilyWARNING: This picture is VERY LARGE. If you want to see the detail, then you *MUST* full-view.
Well, here it is. that one picture I've been talking about for like... a week.
I wanted it to be my best picture ever, but... I dunno. XD It's pretty good for my usual stuff... but nothing spectacular.
Anyway, in the future when Rubis and Saphy are older, they have a kid. Her name is Kelynite. She's a sport young girl who's a total daddy's girl. in This picture, Rubis is pointing out all of the places that he and her mother traveled. :3
I'm fond of the characters themselves, in the pic. I like Kelyn's design. :3 She wears a scarf like her daddy!!
Like I've said before... space backgrounds are fun~
Well, not my best piece, but sweet. :3
Edit: Here's some detail shots!!

:3 the third one is there because I really liked that irken symbol I made. ^^ It's part of the offical Spittle Ship racing logo.

Yeah, they are. o_O... why do you ask? XD; My irkens are born from tubes, yes, and then the parents of the little created smeet take it in. If the parents don't take their babehs in, then those irkens are just sent to do work for the empire, like ZIM...

I love the detail in this picture...it all feels so real, as if one were really there experiencing it with your characters. The vivid colors and designs make it eye-appealing. The scarf carry-through is adorable also. ^^

This is kind of a weird thing to say, but ... i can like ... sense everything in this picture. Like i can smell the leather jacket and the interior of the ship, and i can hear it humming, and feel how cool the windshield is. I think it's the coloring. This looks awesome.

Not your best piece?
F...f....fuck! It's too good!
It looks almost exactly like the style on the show..only it's more of the 'zen' esque style to it.
this ain't average from you but, I'm liking this a lot.

...Zen, you rock so hard you make me want to draw you fanartsx10000000000000000000000, just so that I can mention you somewhere. XD
I'm reallyreallyreally going to try not to babble, so I'll put my thoughts in a simple list. cB
1. This is AWESOMEAWESOMEFREAKINAWESOME.
2. You are, quite possibly, one of the best Irken artists I've ever seen. You portray your characters REALLY really well, you've got the design and...I guess you could call it 'anatomy'...of the irkens down PERFECTLY, and I'm just...wowamazed.
3. I love that, as close as your style is to the actual show, your own style is still implimented into it, making it all your own and completely original and even more amazing than ever.
4. Your character designs amaze me. I love Rubis's clothing and the fact that his antennae are thicker than most irken's, and his daughter Kelynite is just SO CUTE. I love her purple eyes, and it's just...reallyreally clever of you to make her eyes purple because Rubis's red eyes + Saphy's blue eyes = Kelynite's purple eyes. Awwwesome. And veryvery clever.
5. I LOVE that ship. It's another example of how your own style is still in it, even though it's close to that of the actual show. It look SIMILAR to the show, and definately is RECOGNIZABLE, but you can definately tell by looking at it "Zenity drew this awesome Irken ship."
6. I can;t help but keep staring at the detail shots in absolute awe. Really, how BIG is this thing, REALLY!? It seems like you must draw everything SUPERHUGE and then you always size it down at the end. The detail you put into this is amazing, even if it doesn;t really show in the overall result after you;ve shrunk it down. You have amazing patience.
7. That background is just...wow. I mean, I can;t even think of a good word for it. xD You're SO EXCELLENT as space backgrounds, and I am just eating this one up. The different colours, the blending, the planets, the little swirly galaxy, the stars...did you do each star by HAND? I love how they're all not-evenly-spaced and so natural looking, and also how some look closer than others, or brighter. I even spotted two shooting stars in there! Now That's what I call precision!
Long story short (i.e., to keep this from turning into even more of a NOVEL than it already is...) this is really. effing. amazing.
Keep up the outstanding work, Zen. <3 I am infinitely envious of your skillz. ;___; -worships-

Zenity In reply to Quaggy [2006-03-27 14:34:20 +0000 UTC]
^__^ Thank you so much... and now to answer all these complients!
1. Thank you. XD
2. XD; I've always tried to keep to the show's original "anatomy" of an irken... o__O; it's taken me YEARS, but I've got it down to a science now. :3
3. XD I suppose that happens accidentally. I try to stick directly to the show, but then I try to stick to my experience with "irken anatomy" ._.;
4. X3 I also love that Rubis' antennae are thick.. and Kelynite's eyes are a mix of her parent's X3;
5. Oh good, I'm glad my ship looks..cool. XD I may have Irkens down flat, but I have very very LITTLE practice with ships.
6. Actually, I do scan all my pictures at a VERY VERY large size, which is one of the main reasons that my line-art is very smooth. XD; and everyone says I must have patience with my pictures... O_O; this one was especially hard to be patient with, because if I tried to smudge anything with the smudge brush Photoshop would freeze for a few minutes XD Since everything was so big, it took forever for Photoshop to comprehend a simple giant brush stroke. XD; It was so bad that I couldn't do ANYTHING at the original size for the background. I did all the space stuff at the size you see now. But everything else was about... 66.67% more than it is now.
7. XD No, I didn't do each star by hand though. I used a little technique that I learned years ago... from some tutorial I can't remember. Note me though, and I'll explain it to you! I liked doing the shooting stars though... XD; I thought I'd spice it up a bit. :3
Thanks for such a long thought out comment, and thank you for the compliments! I'm glad you enjoyed the picture. :3

Thsi is super duper awesome, I mean the characters are wonderful and the detail on the ship is amazing, but I am just flat out infatuated with the background.
I would really love like... just a wallpaper of a solar system drawn by you. That would just make my life times ... Like... a million billion or something!
Or something.
