    More please :)

    If you did commissions of SupCom units like this, I could be interested ;-)

    Awesomeness approved™.

    That's really good, but if you look at the official pics you'll notice they aren't as pretty as yours. They're more simplistic, in a cool way that fits with the theme of PA, the slightly toonish blocky look.

    But you should definitely stick with your idea of these two you made, the second one needs to present the commander better, put him more central. The background of the second one, especially that nebula is too distracting from the commander.

    The first one is very good, I like the clair obscur you used.

    So the the idea is perfect, the art style needs more PA in it and less photorealisticness.

    why thank you
    thanks, all feedback is much appreciated, I'll do what you suggest.

    I was conscious of the different in art style. If I have Pictures to work from it serves as a medium for drawing in stuff.

    I'll try to lean back towards the simplistic art style. keep in mind there are MANY commanders and that the Rallus commander (which is less popular) wallpaper being a bit more draft, is probably less of a big deal. I'll work on it anyhow.

    I need help getting good shots of the commanders. (including the ones we don't have access to yet)
    anyone willing to chip in?

    anybody know what are their names? what factions they belong to? what their role is?

    (either way it's bound to hit a wall I only have the legionis machina and foundation logos : /)

    That first one is in the game, yet it isn't available. Meta showed it on a test stream, along with many other commanders, most of them being available right now, except this one, and the armored crab one. That was a while ago, back when there were only 3 playable commanders I believe.

    I don't know it's name, I'm not even sure if it has one.

    I think Uber is the only one who knows who the other faction leaders are and where those mysterious unavailable commanders went.

    It seems to be "Crustacea", according to the first image here.
    Not sure if it is its final name, or just an internal one.

    Nice spot! That name should be kept, it is perfect for him.

    I also really love the first one!!! The second one's planet is a bit too big I guess, it looks a bit messy.

    Crustacea... I think they just want to refer to that the commander should have the characteristics of crustaceans, rather than it being its name. But then again, it wouldn't be the only dull naming in PA.. So it might as well be the actual name.

    I adore the first one.

    Second one makes me think of BSG, the fall of caprica.
    Edit: Which is probably because that's where your stock picture came from :p.

    By the way, this picture is the single reason why we need orbital nuke launchers. It's the only way to be sure my opponent is destroyed.
