Digital illustration of humanoid robot oc. It is standing in a farm area/cornfield in a puddle with weird curved perspective. Screen face and pink areas on body emit a bright glow. Three sections of 'close ups' show a camera lens, chromatophores and Rorschach patterns. Some eerie glitches eyes riddle the art.

Carrion is standing in a dark hallway lit by the red glow of a sign written with "Sector C" across it. Debris and loose cables decorate the dark, ruined hallway.

Carrion's claws are mid-retracting from a dead, unidentified monster. HUD and UI appear faintly over certain areas, showing a glimpse of what his thought process is.

my piece for the "Show Me Your Core" zine. the illustration is majorly colored with bright limes and dark teals and blues. it depicts Mateo sitting on the dirty ground of an alleyway, alongside empty bottles, trash, and a dumpster. in the background, the alleyway opens up into a raging green fire, and in the foreground sits Mateo, illuminated the the light of an open door. Mateo is a scrappy looking robot wearing a denim jacket, defined by his yellow paintjob and utilitarian cube-shaped head. he looks nervous or bashful, sweating and slightly covering his face from the bright light and the viewer.

Arc, a black and orange robot draped in flowing white fabric, extends a hand as a monarch butterfly alights gently on their fingertip. Around them are shadowy, disheveled robots reaching up to touch them in reverence.

A dark gray and gold robot reclines on an extravagant chaise lounge with his chit and suit jacket opened to reveal his chest. He's one arm wrapped around a cello neck while the other holds a bow that rests on his shoulder. Behind him is a gold-inlaid carving of an owl among branches.

Orias, an incubus themed robot hangs from the ceiling on red ropes. Some panels are open to show maintenance hatches and diagnostic wires. Despite being hung up for repairs, he holds himself as if he were tied in bondage

Art of a robot facing forward, part of its chest is open to reveal wires and a core glowing from the inside. A few wires drape over the arms like fabric. The "Show Me Your Core" title is set at the bottom of the page.

everybody wants to be known as part of a subculture no one wants to participate genuinely in the subculture

i constantly feel this abt scene and goth fashion its like.... a lot of artists will dub themselves enthusiasts of a subculture but not actually do any research into it beyond what other artists with a similar level of knowledge are also drawing?
