March 2021 Challenge: The Siege of Upris

[Mimine]

Hey everyone!

So last week was my March break, and I've been playing No Man's Sky ALL WEEK. So when I saw that this month's challenge was about space invasions, I was ecstatic.
I automatically thought of my current base in NMS and how, from the minute I set foot on the planet, I fell in love with the colors and the atmosphere. I decided I wanted to draw a landscape of a planet with those colors, and it would be the siege of that planet.
Not gonna lie, the hardest part will probably be drawing all the technology (spaceships, bases, monoliths, etc.), but I'm confident I'm gonna handle it fine.

So here is my sketch, I'm so in love, I wanna go live there. The lilac sky makes me crazy, I hope you'll like it! I'll post another WIP soon, but in the meantime, if you wanna see my process, I streamed the whole thing on Twitch! -> https://www.twitch.tv/mistigris09/videos (Feel free to leave a follow <3)

Summary of yesterday's session on Twitch. Love the look of those planets and I'm highly satisfied with what I did with those mountains. It's my first time drawing them like this and I'm quite surprised with the outcome!

That is a very striking sky!

Now I'm wondering how you would get that color on a real planet. I think it has to be particulates in the air that have the color.

The planets look really cool, too.

I think it has to do with the components in the atmosphere yes! Like the colors in a firework. Besides, that's still a fantasy drawing, so I'm not concerning myself with that really

Looking really good so far - I love the colors and I think the final product will be very striking.

Absolutely Wonderful!

How nice. Someone else who tries to do weird colors for maps. Good luck with it.

Thank you all! I'll keep you updated on the process!

Well I sure wasn't expecting to have that much trouble painting those damn rocks. Still not really satisfied with that result, but it's enough for tonight.
