Usually photographs are not allowed on-site, but nobody has ever stopped me from sketching, so here’s the refined result of a series of pen sketches I took of a preserved 737 skull. Please forgive any inaccuracies, I am not the greatest aerobiologist.

Brad Story is a little known artist whose work I love. My jaw dropped the first time I saw one in real-life. There's a refined elegance to these biomechanical constructs that is hard to find anywhere else.

At some point I realized that making large sections of the comic be about hyper-intelligent hive minds talking to each other meant that depicting it would be an exercise in futility.
So now I'm just going for the trippiest coolest looking things I can.

Illustration for an old story about an artificial spaceship/dragon that terraforms a planet after most of humanity dies. Pretty much everything she would do would fail, yet she kept going...
Rather Dune inspired, perhaps a bit too much. But everyone loves a giant worm.

The primary senses for an Envy div. Mk 4 Heavy Combat Cyborg (HCC) are proprioception and UHF radio. Sound, smell, and optics are relegated to computer filtering before the organic brain takes notice. It is common for HCC’s to be blinded in their remaining eye and remain active.

Found some VERY old concept art for Aphelion. This is very out-of-date but it's still fun. Early BB would have been a match for a Hellflower. Current BB gets wrecked. He's a glass cannon.
I should do another thing with those doubled hands. Those are cool.

This is old but I like it. Posthumans of gas giants that run simulations in their heads so complex they "confuse" the universe into making it real. This is their only technology aside from massive floating libraries that echo information into the metallic hydrogen planetary core.

Tank-Eater is an external designation similar to NATO designations like "Fulcrum" and "Fishbed" it is not used internally. Internally it’s "Mark 4 Heavy Combat Sleeper Cyborg NBC Warfare Specialization."

"That's not important."
"If you want me to do this, I'm going to need more information."
"... She stole something."
"What the hell did she steal to get that kind of bounty?"
"Something priceless."

Sketches of a Mk.4 Wrath variant with a rotary cannon aimed by two parasite arms. It's more common to see these fitted to cyborg bears or mules, but the intelligence and flexibility of human derived cyborgs means they're used for high-value missions.

I think BOTW link should have come back from the dead wrong. Purah and Robbie read the instructions badly and stuffed his ass in a guardian repair chamber. Now he skitters around and makes that awful guardian stalker "Klk-klk-klk-klk-klk-CHRRRRK!!!" noise when he flurry rushes.

We heard her staccato thunder first, then she came into view, above the treeline, a cluster of red lights illuminating a vaguely humanoid shape in fits and flashes.
She moved faster than vision. After that I remember nothing but a ringing in my ears and the smell of blood.

The Orphan Hive has some... interesting ways to decontaminate things coming from outside. Even they don't want to deal with the things outside, such as weaponized prions accidentally released in the chaos of Asher One.

Meet Luke, a techbro loser who was laid off after a biology scrambling accident, making him eat aluminum, ooze gallium, and be 5x denser than a normal human. His new job involves acting as muscle for an office-dungeon delving team. He is not happy with this. He deserves it.

When I first played Twilight Princess I never got the impression that the Hero's Shade stuck around because he wanted to be known or thought his skills were that important. Rather, it seemed that he knew something bad was coming and wanted to prepare whoever faced it next.

Some of my favorite works of 2022. Not a bad year for art, did a bunch of Aphelion pages, and got TankEater set up. Only made a few pages of Sanguine Tensor though, but that comic's designed to be put on the backburner.

Early sketch of the buffjet. With Babyface for scale (who himself is like, 40ft tall. It lands by flaring and then quickly curling up its wings and tucking them under itself (really hard on the ground!), and it travels on the ground using a dual screw motion with both wing/arms.

The last Librarian and Not-a-Cat flee the armies of the Half-Queen and her gilded army. She carries a holographic tome of a story that increases in detail when colocated with other books.
The Library can be rebuilt. If she lives.

Link's transformations for Majora's Mask all together!
Left to right: Zora Link, Goron Link, Deku Scrub Link, Link Link, and behind them is Fierce Deity Link. Technically the giant's mask is also a transformation, but that's just a bigger Link so I'm not bothering to draw it.

I like the idea that even though the hives have gamma ray lasers, they don't have gamma ray mirrors so the laser is also shooting a beam out the back. Glowy exhaust is just dumping coolant and used medium.
