Well. Long time no post. Thanks to fgfx for the idea ..
It's the midsummer fest here - I sort of rushed this thing because I knew there'd be some heavy drinking once i'd be finished -- cheers .

it's awesome
i do agree with the smoke comment though. Maybe some hard edges in the smoke would fix that though. |

sweet stuff man, I love it. One a side note though: I thought mortars were those things that were shot out of a hollow tube? Y'know, those htings that a soldier would strike the ammo at the tip, then drop it in the tube. Maybe I'm just confused |

Nice job. For a moment I thought the gun was 3D-rendered. |

Brilliant! Love it.
One thing though that is taking away a bit of atmosphere are the mountains on the left.
They scream photoshop brush all over the image. If they had been more in contrast to the sky you would get a better enviroment.
IMO |

... thanks for the positive comments !
I'm very happy that you lot like it
Vgta : Evil totalitarian badgers.
daz199 + davi : true, true. I have a bad habit of drawing different materials in a different 'style', so sometimes the resulting image is not very 'whole' ...
LordArioch : what ? really ?
Akolyte : LOL
ChanXiaoHing : I think you're right .. anyways, a cannon of some sort ? right.
Although i think a literal owl mortar would be more hilarious .. a guy i know from the countryside once taped magnesium on a hamster and threw it in a small pipe pointed upwards and with water in the bottom - magnesium reacts with water - and so the poor thing flew out with a *boom*Sqweeeee*plop*
-=Gux=- : you're right - i'm too bored to work on this piece anymore though
Olve : heh. |

AHAHAHA, that's so damn cool
I think the smoke/explosion could be better. but it's a great concept pulled of with flair.
I love the guy at the bottom clutching his helmet. hehe the character is great. |
