Member Info

I work as a mainframe computer tech to make a living. I draw and sell artwork to support my rabid art habit.

I am a staunch fan of the Predator and Aliens universes, and I am pleased to say that I have seen all the movies, read all the novels, collected all the comics, broken most of the action figures, and in spite of all this I still managed to develop my own creature styles. Hurrah! I present my Predators and a couple of random Aliens here for your amusement and edification.

I do both black-n-white and color art. For BW's I use Zig Millenium pens. For color work I use the Zigs, watercolor and/or markers, and Prismacolor pencils in combination. I work on Strathmore or Canson drawing paper, or whatever's handy.

All of these drawings are of original characters dreamed up by myself and some of my online buddies based on various interpretations of the Predator and Aliens universes.

Update, update, update!

I'm finally adding some artwork from other fandoms. I'm involved with the Harry Potter universe, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Phantom of the Opera. Bits and pieces will be added to the gallery as my ideas and skills grow. ^_^

Your artwork is marvellous! I wish I had the same ability as you:)

Jul 26, 2008 06:33 PM by: RachaelM7

Thanks very much! Just keep pounding away with the pencils and paper for twenty years and you'll probably be *better* than me. Here's hoping! ^_^

I love your artwork, especailly the dragons.

I was wondering if you tell me how to obtain a copyright for my images. Thank you.

You can put a copyright notice onto your images with the text features in any image editing program. You can make a watermark and apply that as well. It also doesn't hurt to make a copyright statement in your Artist's Comments section.

Copyright can also be obtained through a government office for a fee, but most of the time this isn't necessary for folks who are just showing their work online. You might look at some of the official sites online - the rules will differ from country to country, but if you are in the United States, go to www.copyright.gov for some good information.

Awww, I ADORE your alien pictures and of course predator!!!!!
Very nice gallery, my complement!
Maybe you wanna be friends?

Wow! I didn't realise that there was no back strap, I'll bear that in mind thanks. Don't want a naked Yautja running around, could prove quite nasty when fighting a Xenomorph Lol

Cheers again for checking out my drawings. It's really uplifting to know someone cares lol. Anywho, I didnt know there was a book. Thats quite cool. I shall have a look and see what that says about it.

Thanks.

Your artwork is amazing, I'm so jealous of your coloring!

:)

Jan 15, 2007 01:46 PM by: RachaelM7

Thanks!

Honestly, the coloring bit is just 18 million hours worth of perseverence and study. ^_^

There was something i vagely remember in the 90's or something like it or not i don't remember

Aug 26, 2006 10:40 AM by: Falconlobo

Wasn't there a comic book with Aliens and Werewolves? i vagely remember something like that

Aug 26, 2006 12:29 PM by: RachaelM7

I don't recall an Aliens/werewolves comic, but I'm behind on the latest couple of releases. If it was one of the recent ones, I've not yet had a chance to read it. I do know that I don't have anything like that in my collection at the present time.

Aug 26, 2006 10:27 AM by: Falconlobo

Oh well The alien is cooler if it was a werewolf it might have more of a chance but not much

Aug 26, 2006 10:34 AM by: RachaelM7

Werewolf with Alien overtones... Hmmm... I rather like the idea. Might fiddle with it later on. ^_^

Jun 30, 2006 09:35 AM by: 357

Yeah... Thank you very much for correction in this thing! I might go to DA. I have account there too, but I concentrate on FaC :D

May 15, 2006 12:12 PM by: MitchellP

You should make a coloring book that'll be awesome ^_^
I never met anyone that went in-depth as you maybe that's why they still have trouble drawing them ^_^

Aug 25, 2006 05:07 PM by: RachaelM7

I've thought about doing a "big kids" coloring book of Aliens and Predator stuff for quite a while. I may float the idea at one of the regional conventions I attend to see if people are interested in such a thing. Thanks!

Aug 26, 2006 10:45 AM by: MitchellP

Your welcome and that would be awesome if you did do one for us "kids" lol I would definetly buy one ^_^ what's your DA account's name?? lol because I mostly use that site now instead of this one.

Aug 26, 2006 12:28 PM by: RachaelM7

I'm RachaelM5 at DeviantArt. Do drop by! :D

May 14, 2006 08:45 PM by: MitchellP

How long did it take you to get their style down?? I don't see how you can draw them and make it look so effortless. Simply astonishing @_@

May 13, 2006 06:47 PM by: ICP_BITCH

I LOVE YOUR WORK!!!! (loves the predator ones the most)

May 13, 2006 03:37 PM by: MitchellP

Thanks for the response I didn't expect an in-depth answer like that but it helped answer my question and more ^_^

May 12, 2006 09:31 PM by: MitchellP

I have a quick dumb question on the movie alien vs predator you know when the predator slash through one of the aliens tail with his claw it begins to dissolve why is that? I mean aren't the predators highly advacned species shouldn't they have developed some type of weapon or material inwhich the blood of the aliens can't dissolve?
I think this was overlooked but when the predator slashes through the alien's head with his charkram (don't know what it is) shouldn't it have dissolved like his claw did?
Like I said dumb questions but anyways I'd appreciate it if you could let me know. It's something that's been bothering me ^_^

May 2, 2006 10:02 PM by: MitchellP

OMG!!!!!!
Your artistic skills are AMAZING I want to be good as you one day but by the looks of it I need years and years of practice to be somewhat as good as you. If I could fav every pic I would but I'll just fav you instead.
Every pic has so much detail in them I'm just blown away!
^_^

I love your inking and coloring. The details really make your art stand out from the rest.

Sep 6, 2005 11:48 AM by: DoodleBot

You are an amazing artist and from what I've read also a respectable writer, I am in awe. I actually just joined Fanart Central because I wanted to have a chance to come into contact wiht you and talk. Your work has given my overactive imagination more than enough fuel.

Please contact me at doodlebot_117@yahoo.com if you would like to. I hope you will!

Aug 4, 2005 12:22 AM by: -CHLOMO-

Ah!, your art is very good!
I like your attention to detail and the style you used for Tentacle attack and the tattoo design.. they look similar to Celtic patterns and give movement to the image, Choice!

Aug 3, 2005 05:20 PM by: Demongirl101
