Mech design doodlin' turned into some sort of Gundam/Mega Man mash up. Hmm, I do want to make a space combat mech RPG at some point.

'A Golden Seed? I have never in my life seen such a marvel, nor heard anything that might help you find it. It seems a thing more fit for wondrous tales than for our life of sorrows. And yet, may good fortune attend your quest, kind sir!'

Want to once again remind you that the best way to view pixel art is to order fine prints of it from my shop and free them from the tyranny of the screen!

Digital painting of the backside of merman sitting on top of a column. He is sit-squatting, with his clawed feet grasping the platform, and he's looking over his shoulder, staring directly at the viewer with his sharp red eyes. He has a pair of sharp fins on his head and ears, and a spiny dorsal fin that runs from his neck, down to his fish tail, which is protruding out of his lower back. The backdrop is a landscape of ancient architecture in ruins, perched on top of rocks by the sea, and the sky is a vibrant royal blue.

in that an AI is used to generate inappropriate child imagery and spread it to the public and it doesn't get instantly shut down or its technologists legally persecuted shows you the endgame in which an AI is ordered to execute someone and it similarly acts an a moral buffer. This is its function.

Cover image for Ognyen Plamen’s “Sight Tremendous and Abhorred”. It depicts a woman’s face and an angry-looking flying machine superimposed over it. The woman is wearing triangular sunglasses and dark lipstick.

So over the past couple months I’ve been, under no threat of violence whatsoever, taking dictation on a scifi actioner in novella form. I think there’s about a quarter of it left to do.

I’ve also, with no gun pressed against the back of my head, provided the cover art for it.
