“The Intermission, Part II” [Click Here for Part I]

The next installment in my series of StarFox 2 paintings, highlighting the unsung tasks and interactions with their assortment of technology between flights. Continuing the theme of arwing maintenance, Fay Spaniel channels the spirit of Rosie the Riveter, fearlessly coercing the white-hot metal into shape. While the arwings may have left the factory as state-of-the-art technology, this team of mercenary pilots in the depths of space has to scrounge up whatever they can find to keep their ships going. Sometimes the old tech is all that’s available, but often it gets the job done just as well.

If you would like to order a painting in this style, I am currently open for commissions of portraiture, landscapes, critters, and industrial tech! More info available at wings-and-strings.tumblr.com/commissions; Inquiries can be sent to [email protected]

“The Intermission, Part I”

It’s extremely surprising to see Star Fox 2 finally get an official release over a decade after the game was scrapped, so here’s my first in a series of SF2-themed paintings to celebrate. Miyu Lynx, a new recruit, toils away in the small hours during a scheduled overhaul between missions. Like any machine, an arwing would demand regular maintenance to keep it operating reliably, and skilled paws are at the ready to rebuild them better than new. EDIT: Fixed her boots slightly.

The second image in my mini series! Fara Phoenix!

These are fun.

Nothing makes me more excited than seeing propaganda twisted to be used in another universe to forward their fantasy agenda. This piece was inspired by Lady Luck. I feel there just isn’t Star Fox fan art inspired by WWII imagery.

I’ll be doing a series of these.

SO YOU WANNA DRAW CATS AND DOGS BUT THOSE PESKY SNOOTS GET IN THE WAY

Here’s a hopefully helpful tutorial on how to draw them from memory but it also helps to understand and break down how to see their structure when you use reference!

Remember, it’s always best to learn the anatomy of an animal first before trying to stylize it. This way you know the rules and can choose which ones to break!

I’m still learning to render digitally if you want to offer help, I’m all ears.
