torzonhot: it seems so interesting;ready to see a modern army of animals ( 5 years and 3522 days ago )

CMYK46: Might be time to clarify this. Some entries have guns, but no armor. It seems like armor is the focus of the contest, no? ( 5 years and 3521 days ago )

hereisanoop: armour is the theme of this contest... ( 5 years and 3521 days ago )

jawshoewhah: I think people are getting "armed" and "armored" confused as the same thing. ( 5 years and 3519 days ago )

jawshoewhah: Oh hey I found the definition for armored animals. used of animals; provided with protective covering. Giving the animal just a gun is not on theme. It has to be covered, like a knight covering a man in Medieval times. ( 5 years and 3519 days ago )

Howdie stranger!

It was an age of inventions and steampowered machines of all kinds. This is one of the last Birds of Prey called upon in wartime to aid the Allies - stealth at night, faster than a speeding locomotive - always.
Basic photoshop tools - warp, burn, dodge, a few layer effects and a brush. These are very old photos, I know most parts are pixelated, blurred the ones further back. EDIT: I've just come across a tutorial on how to sharpen such images, and it worked - mostly on the center section over the eagle's body.

The small monkeys are fighting against the emperor of Ape (King Warhammer Gorilla :D, you can see him running behind the Mecha, sorry for the author of King Warhammer, I just made the blur shadow of him, just to make the story ^^). They developed a machine call the Monkey Mecha, protecting them in the battle and become the best fighter on the Planet of Ape ^^.
Only the monkey is the external source from stupid-dancer (deviantart). The rest was done by drawing (you can see detail in the SBS, it took me 4 days to finish).
Also credits to Wacom for making such a nice tablet, I love it :x (5 years and 3517 days ago)
