War of the worlds sketch card for Cult Stuff " fire in the forest"

Heres one of my favorite environmental sketch cards I did for the War of the worlds trading card set by cult stuff. Based on the novel by hg wells, not the movies . It depicts the martian tripods approaching the forest which they have set on fire with the heat rays. This drawing was rendered with copic markers.

Some new sketch slaps!

A sketch slap is a small sketch done on a Shipping label of sorts. I have progression videos on my instagram @dsilvadesigns. check them out...some of these are sold, some are still available!

"Feeding Time" War of the Worlds Sketch card For Cult Stuff

Hello all, Back to War of The Worlds sketch cards for Cult Stuff. Here we Have a Martian creature ( still Kind of cute in my opinion) getting ready to feed. I focused less on colors here & more in the subtle details & inking. Done with Copic Markers & multiliners. This is based off of the Novel by H.G. Wells.

War of The Worlds Sketch Card for Cult Stuff

Another one of my War of the worlds sketch cards for Cult Stuff - Coming soon! here we have another scenic card, that was created using copic markers & a gel pen, I think I used my brush pen a bit as well. I wanted it to be kind of peaceful & serene, yet menacing at the same time. Used a lot of muted colors like cool greys, dim greens, & some light blues. pretty much handled a lot of the tones in greys & spot colored & blended afterward with color.

"Heat Ray"Another Tripod sketch card for cult stuff's War of the world set

Back to war of the worlds. Here's another sketch card done for their War of the Worlds set, inspired directly from the novel by H.G. Wells. The instructions I was given was not to reference any other licensed material, only the novel which is why you won't see me drawing any flying ships....or aliens with glowing multicolor lights for faces. Honestly, I have know Idea why they chose to go with that concept for the aliens when the description in the book was so much more cool. Maybe they felt the public is akin to animals in the fact that if you shine enough glowing lights in their faces it will distract them from everything else.

Anyhoo, in this sketch card we have another tripod, all shiny & new, but you will also notice he's holding a box for his heat ray, rather than an antennae. this was a major difference in the book. The tripods held a very primitive looking box that shot out the heat ray rather than any sophisticated laser, which makes sense seeing as they had to build all of their equipment once they arrived on the planet, so speed & functionality would be key, rather than aesthetics. This is another stylized depiction of the heat ray, which in the book was invisible, but I wanted to see what it would look like with some microwaves coming out, done with copic markers.

"Trees Ablaze" War of the Worlds sketch card for cult stuff

Hello there! Today we have another one of my war of the worlds sketch cards for cult stuff, over in the U.K. This particular scene is in reference to the part of the story when the cannons were hiding amidst the tress after dispatching one of the tripods. The tripods began to hurl the black smoke & set fire to all the growth in order to snuff out the hiding artillery men. done with copic markers.

"Steampunk Tripod" War if The Worlds Sketch card for Cult stuff

Another War of the worlds sketch card done for cult stuff, over in the U.k. Thought it would be fun to take a more stylistic approach to the tripod & add a steam punk element to it. I know in the book it stated that in the alien technology, no circles or cylinders were found which would mean no gears. I still thought it would look cool, so here she is. A steam punk tripod collecting people at night. Done with copic markers & multiliners.
