Hi, has this been done? - updated

This is just a concept sketch (not finished art) to see if the idea is clear, and to see if it's been done before. If you can guess the title then I guess it works as a concept, non?

update though still working on the star and surrounding scene.

Any thoughts welcome, good or bad.
Thanks for looking.

Star Trek, it is.

Walker is looking a bit old these days.

fuck it, everyone else was doing it

I guess you're all taking the piss. Oh well, I thought this was an OK Threadless idea.

sonmi on Mar 16 '09 at 8:40am

ohh. i didn't get it until someone else said it. but now it makes sense. i think the face on the star confuses things a bit.

sonmi on Mar 16 '09 at 8:41am

maybe make the star have more perspective and become more of a terrain?

spacesick 2 on Mar 16 '09 at 8:41am

I agree with both things sonmi said. go for it!

ginetteginette on Mar 16 '09 at 8:41am

they're all trying to break you in.

i think it's a good idea (are they cub scouts out camping?) - there's been a lot of space shirts lately but nothing specifically about the stars.

ginetteginette on Mar 16 '09 at 8:43am

oh..

it's a pun type thing. errr. i like it as just kids camping out on a star for some reason.

Bramish on Mar 16 '09 at 8:44am

I didn't get it, nor do I know if it's been done before.

tesco on Mar 16 '09 at 8:45am

how about 'always going forward, never in reverse' as a title

staffell on Mar 16 '09 at 8:46am

get rid of the face

kid polo on Mar 16 '09 at 8:48am

^ haha - Ginette I love your work, and I get the impression you're not a fan of puns.

I'd hope that by the time the art work is done it would be a good enough design to not rely on the title.

I like the idea of bears out camping too.

Sonmi - cheers, the star terrain is a must to make the characters look like they're climbing, so definitely it will look more...er..perspectivey. :)

okay, thanks. :)

Took me ages to work that one out. I like your style.

ginetteginette on Mar 16 '09 at 8:51am

it's not that i'm not a fan, but in this case the imagery just works for me even without knowing the punchline, but i'm also a pretty huge fan of space designs in general (well when they're good).

kid polo on Mar 16 '09 at 8:59am

^ Ginette, I will try my best, and hopefully you'll be impressed.

get rid of the face

That might be an idea, cheers.

ginetteginette on Mar 16 '09 at 9:01am

i am already! and i realize this might be a concept sketch but it also might be nice if even the finished one was just black and white, because it already looks plenty good to me - unless you already have wild colour plans for it.. i wouldn't want to detour you!
