MemberNoobJun-30-2013 3:54 AMBlade Runner is my all time favourite movie, but when I wind the clock back to when as a kid we had bedtime stories, the favourite is the father of sci fi, Jules Verne. I have been working on illustrations for his book now for 25 years, but last month needed a running figure and looked for inspiration. try as I fell back upon a reliable favourite

here is what I managed to do with it in pen and ink for 20,000 leagues. now my two favourite classic pieces of sci-fi are linked in my mind.

MemberNoobJun-30-2013 1:33 PMthanks AI
I draw because I suffer from OCD and tunnel vision, I'm not sure I'm allowed to have these shown though, the only picture with Blade Runner ties is the one I posted. I hope i'm not breaking the rules. I'm glad you like them though, I do them because I feel like I have to and have done since I latched onto it at the age of 9. Blade Runner is the second significant story I can't seem to or want to stop thinking about
mental health problems aside I'm glad you appreciate them

Community ExecutiveMemberNoobJun-30-2013 4:00 PMI think being polite and educated with others is the top of the rule. But if you want to know them [url=http://www.scified.com/community/forums/topic/1]here is a list with the rules[/url] :) and is allowed to share thoughts, theories and expectations about movies and sifi themes, if you want keep posting about blade runner well this site is perfect, but if you feel like discuss sifi, movies, books, games, etc you could check [url=http://www.scified.com/]http://www.scified.com/[/url] anyway you can discuss that things in both sites.
I'm glad you found such a productive cool thing as art to work on it

MemberNoobJun-30-2013 5:02 PMHi AI
sorry if I was in anyway impolite..I certainly meant no offense, my head is always a mess but I have mental health problems. I love to focus on bladerunner, jules verne and alien and my artwork is clarity in my head. I'm glad I have friends like yourself that like what I do.

Community ExecutiveMemberNoobJun-30-2013 5:32 PMouh :) you are not impolite, I wasn't scolding you, thought you wanted to know the rules so I pointed and them trying to be helpful. ;)
If you are focused on blade runner that's cool. I used to readVerne's books when I was a child, sadly I didnt read them since that; now I could read them again, Verne and Wells were great entertainment in my childhood.

Member2KJul-01-2013 2:09 PM@fishkettlebanana- those are wonderful! That you have dedicated 25 years to illustrating 20,000 Leagues just blows me away!
I love pen & ink myself & know how hard it is on the fingers! You are hugely talented & I hope one day you finish & have 20,000 leagues published in a lavish series of volumes!
Good luck & keep drawing!! :-D
