A printed mandalorian n1 starfighter. I tried a metal foil finish on this and it looks quite nice.

Its great to see fdm getting to the point of being accurate enough for minis, but i have used domestic resin machines for mechanical parts and pretty big cosplay bits before. Cant argue that its more messy though!

IDK what this is all about, welcome to the Autistic life.

Anyhow. Me? I'm a Concept Artist for the Battletech Game by CGL.

Or was, the last 5 months I've been unable to work do to health issues.

a close up of the cockpit and upper torso of a Thunderbolt Battlemech (from the Battletech IP).  It's cockpit hatch is open, while the pilot cools off with some "liberated" champagne and a cigar. 

"Captain DePastene of the 331st Royal Battlemech Division unwinds in the fields outside of Moscow, after a battle vs the entrenched forces of the 33rd Amaris Dragoons.  While waiting on the technicians to patch the armor and reload the weapon systems for his TDR-5Sb Thunderbolt, DePastene avails himself of some fine cigars and champagne they liberated earlier in the campaign."

Speed sketch done for a generous patron.

Example of the $50 "Speed Sketch Commissions" I'll be offering the next two weeks, one open slot per day until Jan 20. This got a little extra cuz the patron "doubled up".

The iconic Horsehead Nebula in the Orion constellation

The iconic Horsehead Nebula in the Orion constellation

My grand finale tonight. An image I've dreamed of capturing ever since being a young boy in the 1960s. The iconic Horsehead Nebula. It's taken 4 months since buying the SeestarS50 for the time, location and seeing conditions to be right.

Very happy with this. 😊🎉🔭

I am always surprised to find complaints about free models online, its a gift from a saint when I find a model I need. Even if it's not perfect it's a start.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

They run them bc people react to them the most.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

It’s not easy and takes constant practice!
