Ninjas In Space

Recommended Posts

Phew, now that that craziness of last minute entries is over, let's format this topic!


Right from the start, I realized I wouldn't have enough time to really finish this (okay, probably not right from the start), but here I am, last second, hurriedly painting and thumbnailing and shading. This is the first time I've almost exclusively used my art tablet, and it's great to get the chance, although it ended up a bit messy. Please don't look too close at the rushed areas (I'm not going to point them out so you don't look at them :) )

So, I wouldn't have entered this contest at all, being in the first few weeks of college for me (yay!), but as soon as I saw the topic title, this is what I pictured. Ninjago, set in space. Of course, it's totally unoriginal as that's the topic title, but it turned out cool. I fused a bit of space themes in the past (I was going for Galaxy Squad on the torso, but it turned out like Boba Fett) with Ninjago, mostly this last year. If I had time, I would have added in the other Ninjas, plus a female, purple Ninja of spacey...stuff. I hadn't thought out the entire story, but I was also thinking Dragon-themed rockets, Dojo-space-stations, and a threat from beyond the stars the Ninjas have to fight before it reaches the city. If I had time, I would have also put a familiar freckled eye of a Stromling hidden in the starry background, just for lulz. Come to think of it, there's a lot I didn't get to put in. Maybe I'll add it all later.


 


So, hope you enjoy my rushed entry. I hope it stands out a bit among all the other amazing entries in General Art, and at least gets a few votes (at least some comments :) )

The character design for this one is good. I think the background could have used some stars or constellations to give it more of a space feel. Also I'm not sure if he's walking on a tiny moon or a space ship. I think that might be best left to the imagination.

 

Cool artwork! I also love how this is the only piece that has Ninjas in space. XD

 

Good luck in the contest!

Thanks! It took me a while to figure out a design I liked. I'm kind of surprised no one else was this unoriginal. :P

 

Yeah, stars were one of those things I ran out of time for. I'd really like to go back and fix all the things I missed.

 

Nice job! The whole design is very movie poster-esque, which looks great. The ninja's pose is cool too. The only thing I might add is some detail to the moon and the space behind him, like some stars or planets.

 

Great job, and good luck!

 

Thanks, that was what I was aiming for, although more of a teaser for a "future" year of Ninjago.
