MemberFacehuggerJanuary 18, 2013I like to explore some artistic ideas by doing some digital doodling.
What has occurred to me is that there are threads that relate to what the Engineers home planet looks like. This got me thinking that besides the Juggernaut we know from Alien and Prometheus, if we were to go to the Engineers home planet, then surely they would have other types of craft.
I like to play around with ideas, which are not the best pieces of art you will see, but developments of ideas and basic doodles using techniques I feel comfortable with. I know that on this site there is some serious talent and also those who although may not feel confident expressing themselves visually are mindblowingly great at expressing there visions in writing. I am wondering if the two can join together and express their views through whatever medium they are more comfortable with in coming up with ideas of what other types of craft may be found on the Engineers home planet.
Here is one of my doodles to give you an idea how I think.

Can you see that one? Very odd cos I can see the image in the start post for some reason.. It was loaded up from photobucket which does'nt usually give me a problem.

@ Caenorhabhditis
I use Paint a lot to get an idea going, before bringing it into Photoshop. The older versions of photoshop, eg Elements can be a lot cheaper to get hold of and are more of a nuts and bolts approach which does make them friendlier to use. If your looking at free software you might want to consider this.
