So, my talented (and cute) girlfriend has finally decided to draw me some spaceships.
Mind you - that's a girl who knows nothing about sci-fi, spaceship et cetra.
So, for the last few weeks, I've been forcing her to watch all kinds of sci-fis with me: Star-Trek, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, and so on.
She loved some of them, got bored at others. But that didn't matter to me. My goal was to make her see space ships. Lots of lots of spaceships. And she did.
And now she finally started drawing some of them.
It's not as easy as it seems. Especially to someone who's not familiar with the source material. That's both good and bad. On the one hand - she doesn't know what to draw. She doesn't even know where to start. On the other hand - she's not compromised by "common" things. The ships she draws are different and unique.
That said, I chose to display two of the ships she drew that don't have that quality in them. Why? Cos I want the game to be familiar to anyone who's familiar with the genre. I want players to look at a ship and say "yup, that's a ship."
Here's another example:
