2001-Dave’s Sketches

[Nostromo2124]

I just finished this 6 (relatively) screen accurate sketches from the scene were Dave shows them to HAL:

And yes, ‘I can hold them a bit closer’, this is just a preview !
I’m gonna post the drawings separately and full-size tomorrow ( bad light right now),
so you can print and glue them on a drawing pad, like the original...
Except for the the Cryo-chamber floor which is shown full-size, I couldn’t match every detail of the “portraits” through HAL’s fish eye, but I think I got the characteristic shape of them!

How promised, here they’re:

You can either use them as they’re or you take them as a template to draw your own ( holding them against a window works always! )

I’m also starting to replicate Dr. Floyd’s TMA-1 discovery photos, I will upload them too:

Thanks so much for sharing the sketches, really amazing work on creating them. And, looking forward to Dr. Floyd's photos.

This movie is special to me, the first movie I watch in a movie theater and my first movie soundtrack I bought, both in the mid-70's. I made sure to watch it on the 50th anniversary of it's release.

Thanks for the nice feedback!
Here’s the first of Floyd’s pics:

I crawled 2 hours to the www, lunar orbiter archives, nasa files and dozens of pre 1970 moon photograph albums to find authentic pics looking like the ones on the two moon-surface photos, but ended by using the first photos appears on google if you search for ‘moon crater’ and ‘tycho’ [emoji849]
So they’re not the same like the ones on screen but look very similar after editing them... giving the fact I didn’t know anything about graphic design or something, I’m pretty proud how they turned out/ will turn out !
This is the current state of the other 3 photos, I’ll finish them within the next weeks:

Thx and you’re welcome [emoji6]
I always like to share my work cause it makes me happy knowing that maybe only two or three people around the world have my work displayed in their collection!
