Dijkman Sketches The Battle of Earth Up Close (September 16, 2004)

[ChrisReid]

Dijkman has sketched another scene for everybody. The picture is set in an Arrow cockpit chasing a Dralthi over Earth.

​

"Earth?" you might say, then this must be a scene from the Battle of
Earth, and that is correct. In my opinion I find that this is one of the most important fights for human survival, and that gave me the inspiration for the picture.

Besides the Arrow cockpit and Dralthi you should also recognise the dead
Hellcat and large piece of hull of a capital ship. In the background a
fleet carrier is slugging it out against various Kilrathi fighters and
bombers, and even further away you see a carrier in drydock moments from its
destruction.

There's quite a bit to see in this one. The original was a bit light, so the one above has been darkened slightly. Dijkman's original can be found here.
