I present to you my digital drawing of XCOM's Skyranger dropship, from the 2K/Firaxis game XCOM: Enemy Unknown/Within. Drawn using Sketchbook Pro and a Wacom Intuos 4 graphics tablet (Medium), on a canvas of 30cm x 30cm.

Drawing time took me several hours, and the background has been drawn from imagination. The ship however is based on a piece of official concept art work which I'll happily link people to should they want to compare the two together.

This is the first time I've drawn a vehicle properly since that old Ferrari Italia traditional drawing back in 2010, so it was kind of difficult to get used to at first. I think the main ship itself has turned out great though! Unfortunately I had to rush the background a little bit, so it's not as good as it could have been, however I still think it's turned out okay! It doesn't seem to detract from the image in any way. I'll hopefully have the time in the future to update this piece with a background that suits it more! Maybe a nigh time flying scene similar to what is seen in game? Regardless of my opinions, I'd love to know what you all think of it!

I can't wait to finally get my hands on the Enemy Within version of the game come the 15th of November! I am utterly hyped for it, as sadly I never had the time to play Enemy Unknown when it was released last year.
