Behind the scenes of the GRCZWRE by @sparky_7th_chaos (Sparky the Seventh Chaos)

Just in case anyone's interested, here's some things I saved from when I was working on the Great Randomcritter Zero Wing Reenactment. In order as one reads a book, the pictures are:

Rough sketch of ZIG-01.

Early colored version of ZIG-01 without the ship's canopy over him. I was experimenting with how to make the green visor look translucent, and I ended up averaging the colors' numbers in Paint to come up with something right between, say, the green of the visor and whatever color his face was. I accidentally saved over the original colored picture.

Random thingy from when I was coloring Operator. It's not relevant, I just like it because it kind of looks like a dragon.

The background from ZIG-01's picture.

The next three show Operator's evolution; rough sketch, sketch with headgear, and final colored version. Note how he lost his beard and how his eye changed position.

The mothership at full size. To put it in the space scenes, I shrunk it with MS Word and stuck it back into the space background.

The final three are the different versions of Captain's mark of rank. As the arrow helpfully points out, the first one is the final version. There was a version of it with no lines through it, but I lost it.

Hooray for Zero Wing.
