All of these are so cool
This is very cute
✨ quote repost with your art that has stars ✨ You can try to Control the Stars, but they will always be Free.
I drew and animated this little weirdo!
Do you like jams? Tunes? Bops? If you haven't read the latest update, be sure to at least check out a little demo of what we're cooking for Free Stars: Children of Infinity. vimeo.com/1101654555

More work for @pistolshrimpgames.com's Children of Infinity. A mysterious ringed gas giant! #freestars #uqm #space #planet #ring
Now that @pistolshrimpgames.com has revealed more stuff in their latest dev blog post (www.kickstarter.com/projects/pis...), I can share some of what I've been working on lately. #starcontrol #freestars #uqm
A visualization I #animated of a starship translating into #HyperSpace as depicted in the beloved sci-fi game series #starcontrol #freestars #uqm
Some old art. The evacuation of Spathiwa in the face of the EVIL ONE threat. #starcontrol #freestarsgame #spathi #moon #digitalart #art
🟣 If you see this post your purple art 🟣 Sure, why not? #freestarsgame #whitetrashwarlock #conceptart #art
This is one of mine!
this is how i command a starship
today's mood
I don't like the look of this one. His eyes are too close together!
One day I will wake with this image burned into the backs of my eyelids and I will know that that is the day I will die.
Picture a crew of workers in reflective vests all perched on a catwalk cheering and clapping as we watch our station manager literally shovel shit into a can with nothing but nitrile gloves and a snow shovel. Anyway, that outfit shut down pretty soon after that. I wonder why? 🤷♂️
Still unwilling to pay the fine, the station manager decided to solve the problem himself. He grabbed a yard-size trash can and a snow shovel and drove his brand new white pickup truck down to the ramp. We were confused watching him approach, until we saw what was in his truck bed.
Rather than pay the fine for creating a hazardous spill, the station manager suggested we rinse it all into a storm drain with the hose on the potable (drinking) water truck and go on working. My supervisor called him an idiot and said he wouldn't let us go back to work until hazmat came.
My supervisor immediately called all work to a halt and got everybody away from the spill, then called the station manager to have him inform HAZMAT of the situation. The problem is, the station manager was a bean-counting ass-hat who wouldn't even pay to put working brakes on our tugs.
I worked ground logistics at a major airport. One time, the team genius was working the lavatory truck and decided it would be twice as efficient to open all the valves at once--on a 747 that just crossed the Atlantic. The result was messy, to say the least. It looked like the plane had shat.
"...You don't have to be a gun. You are what you choose to be." All shot practically using real figures, lighting, smoke and miniature sets. I added a digital glow to the Iron Giant eye the rest is all real.
i did some pixel fan art of an alien from an old game by @pistolshrimpgames.com
POV: Your spaceship is being exploded
Milestone 5 Update is available on Kickstarter! See our work on HyperSpace, Gas Giants, Interiors with Floyd, and many of the cool things our backers have created! www.kickstarter.com/projects/pis...
Sometimes I'll be elbow deep in a commission and get a rush of overwhelming guilt that says 'stop goofing off and get back to work.' Then a few seconds later I remember that I've just been steadily working for four straight hours without a break. Brains are weird.
I look at these and feel my soul opening up.
I also really enjoyed this movie. It did some things I hadn't seen before, but in a way that felt natural to its setting and plot.
Alaska is pretty.
I'd display this in my home. It looks dope as hell.
Your artwork is difficult to look away from. I can't tell if it is just compelling in its uneasy charm, or if a gut instinct is telling me not to turn my back on a predator. Either way, bravo.
I really enjoyed this game.
A spooky skellington
Is this a clay golem? It's really cool looking!
With a flare of incandescent light, the slave shield vanished and for the first time in my life I saw the true colors of Earth... #starcontrol2 #uqm
Another #speedpaint from a few years back. #scifi #conceptart #digitalart #spaceship #outpost
Rough landing. #speedpaint #digitalart #scifi #hurricane
This is a scene that happened in the #D&D campain I ran based on Star Control II: The Ur-Quan Masters. The players were trying to remove the Evil Ones from Spathiwa, which seemed like a great opportunity to let them pilot giant robots and fight kaiju.
Get in the fucking robot, Fwiffo. #starcontrol #UQM #evangelion #spathi #alien #robot
More old creature design stuff. #alien #scifi #digitalart
More creature design practice. The keyword for this one was #bioluminescence. #speculativebiology #conceptart #digitalart #alien #scifi
An exercise I did a few years back, practicing iterative creature design. The throughline here is 'gravity.' #speculativebiology #alien #conceptart #scifi #digitalart
Someone is operating a power tool in the parking lot that sounds exactly like Amanda Thripp squealing during the hammer-throw scene in #Matilda (1996)
I can't wait to read it! October can't come soon enough.
Sometimes I paint stuff that's not space aliens, robots and warlocks. This is a speedpaint of a cliff and some mountains.
I love that Adam's go-to move in every single conflict is to detonate his goddamn warp core. No half-measures!
It didn't like the gif so let's try this instead. An earthling cruiser from #uqm translating into #HyperSpace.
More #UQM fan art. A #VUX intruder ambushes a #syreen penetrator.
@drslayton.bsky.social Hello! I just recently started reading your books and they are making a pretty strong impression on me, so I did some fan art. #adambinder #whitetrashwarlock
Here's a splash image I did for @pistolshrimpgames.com, currently used as the "box art" for #FreeStars: The Ur-Quan Masters on Steam. #UQM
Here's one of my favorite #UQM fan paintings I've ever done, an #arilou skiff pulling a classic maneuver against a #mycon podship. Most of the time when I look at my own art I can only see the flaws. This one just makes me happy every time I look at it. #freestars #starcontrol
Hello bluesky people, I'm trying out the thing. I'm the guy who did so much #StarControl #UQM fan art that @pistolshrimpgames.com hired me on to do art for the upcoming sequel. Here's an old painting I did of an #Ur-Quan #Kohr-Ah being intimidating.
