Vehicle concept
I should do more vehicles… characters tend to nag at you after a while :)
It’s a light armoured scout car. Decided to give it a desert camo look, inspired by WW2 British camo.
I wanted to keep it a bit real, not too much scifi elements. Except it runs on camel pisss, heheheh…
Photoshop, no ref used.

nice concept, i like it. One thing I would nitpick though, is the rang of motion for the machine gun turret, it wouldnt be able to turn much to the right because of the housing for the larger gun sticking out so high… Maybe you didnt want the gun to turn that way, but if I was in a vehicle like this, I would only need that big gun to be shooting straight in front of me, and the smaller gun to pick off attackers on the side.. anyway, thats my 2cents..

Main Loop, thanks for the observations!
Good point, the pivot point (up/down) for the smaller gun should be the one closest to the barrel. That’s what I had in mind, but maybe I made some miscalculations :/ aaargh!
Sis, err I have a blog?? :P
I sampled some Rembrant and Vermeer colours in Painter and converted them for use in Photoshop. Damnit, there goes my secret…
Pat, err … hard round brush? :) I do several passes, working from dark to light. I hope this makes the process a bit clear. Pretty straight forward.
Thanks Hurri!

Chup, you’re right, the background looks a bit too clean. Thanks.
I will spend an extra few minutes tonight on the pic and work on your and Loop’s comments.
