Description

Another prelim, this one somewhat worse for wear. I'm not sure what's going on here, but I like it!

This looks like he's working out a space walk gone wrong with sci-fi horseshoe magnet and the bottom of an astronaut shoe floating. The way Finlay roughs out the cylindrical fuselage with the shading is very naturally worked.

Lots to enjoy in this surreal SF prelim! Love the bold B&W shapes and shadows
