Hi. Got around to reinterpreting another piece of Homeworld concept art.
This time it's the Guardian Angel of Hiigara, holding the planet in her hands and protecting it with her wings, forming the Angel Moon logo in the process. (That's also why the wings are so oddly bent.)

She's also wearing a flight suit, as she's a kind of figurehead for the Hiigaran star fleet.

Did this really late at night and added the color just because the original b&w seemed a little bland and... sad. So please excuse the less-than-inspired color job. Might redo that when I'm more awake.

Cheers.

That is awesome... and not just artistically. I think Homeworld has one of the most fantastic stories and settings. The whole concept of the picture is just great.

Oh gorgeous. I told you such in IRC. ;)

I doubt the color job is as bland as you say. It really puts the focus on her wings and her hands holding the planet. Maybe a little touch-up on the shadows on her face, but I can't really think of any other nitpicks.

Ya know, with a little touching up I can see this becoming a neat noseart image for a Hiigaran battlecruiser. :D

Years are like fractals. The more you've seen of them, the more you appreciate the details of each one, rather than how many you've seen.

From dehumanization to arms production,
For the benefit of the nation or its destruction
Power, power, the law of the land,
Those living for death will die by their own hand..
