I admit it, space battles turn me on. No, not in that way, they just excite me. No seriously, not like that they are just great because they are so unrealistic. Laser cannons, sound in space, the explosions, space crafts, a total fantasy, yet beautiful nonetheless. A friend of mine asked me to do some drawings of an IF-800 Sith Fighter and a mini book resulted. The large image is set up so that you can see the pairs of pages.

Ernest Concepcion is a BBC artist, that is an artist whose work is Badass, Brutal, and Creative. His drawings are filled with so much content that one can get lost in them even from a computer screen. I would absolutely love to see his work live to truly appreciate his taste for detail.

Here is part of his artist statement pertaining to his Line Wars Series (images below):

From tables vs. chairs to cowboys vs. aliens and cookies vs. milk, The Line Wars began as a series of over 100, 9×12 inches, ink drawings that emerged from sketches and doodles–the most rudimentary expression of visual thinking. The images are based on the entertainments of childhood and adolescence: Video games, action figures, strategy board games–always two forces opposing one another. The Line Wars is a celebration of making impulsive, nonchalant drawings, as well as a personal journey into nostalgia and an homage to geekdom.
