This is amazing!

There is something about purple and space themes. It squeezes my heart in a good way.

You've done it again, Lay! Love your work!

I think a neat one would be an orbital shipyard with a half built bahemoth.

Oh that's a great idea, crazy thing is, i thought about drawing Tycho the other day too.

Do you mind sharing your process? Do you usually trace different parts of existing images? Are you free-handing? Do you use some sort of image converter as a starting point?

You can call it free-handing (i just look at things and simplfy them when drawing kind of thing). I do share some Wip screenshots on Mastodon and sometimes i do timelapse videos too.
For this particular artwork here's a wip screenshot

I start with black&white values to begin with, then when I have a solid composition, I start adding colors.

Here's a timelapse video of the process I did couple of weeks ago:

That was so cool! Thank you for sharing!
