Hello!

I just finished this and thought you might like a look at how I do my backgrounds. So, for this one I took a screencap of the 3D model of the ship I built:

Next up, I used that as a basis and inked over it in Photoshop, adding plenty of details to the simple boxy shapes:

And then it was just a case of colouring and shading everything! The ship is built to mine asteroids, so I put a few dents and scratches on it where stray rocks probably hit it all the time.

This one took a couple of hours to do and I believe I have all the exterior shots of the the ship done now.

I hope you all had a nice Valentine's day!

-Paul

Hi Paul. Joined the Patreon, amazing stuff! Question: What frame resolution are you working on now? That Ship PSD you posted was a whopping 3500x2024 resolution, are you doing this to target 4K quality, or are you always working at higher res to then render out the film at 1080p? I guess my question is, as someone who wants to do a short film, what is the best method for crafting it?
