Busy busy. At least I got this done a while ago. This, dear readers, is the fleet of the Armies of the Southern Cross. Let me clarify, these are a bunch of space ships and characters based on a show called Super Dimensional Cavalry: Southern Cross, later known as that the middle chapter in an 80's show called Robotech.
As usual, I say a few more words about this on the good ol' blog [link]
Let it be known this image is a riff of a well known promotional image of Macross.
Love the feel of this piece. A real sense of the breadth of the Southern Cross with the different designs doing their thing, the cool confidence of Marie comes through, and just a glance and you know whoever's going to be on the receiving end of this task force is in for a world of hurt!
Hmm... I believe something similar was done in an old Sentinels cover - but I'll definitely look into it. I'm currently exploring a new "style" with my work so I might tailor it to that.
