Reclamation heavy lift aircraft bringing equipment and personnel into the valley of Two-Sky River.

The small cockpit windows are mainly a backup for the augmented reality sensorium helmets worn by pilots; a technology favored by House Kendi.

I don't have the facilities to sell prints online right now, but I'd love to. I guess I need to start tabling at cons...

FALLEN FROM THE FIRMAMENT

0202-NOVEMBER
ANGEL-SERIES
TYPE-ZETA WEAPONFORM

SIGNAL-REACTIVE [HALO IFF]
HYPER-REGENERATIVE
AUTOARMAMENT CAPABLE
BLESSED BE, BLOODY ANGEL

another fun seasonal work featuring my persona of choice in more devilish attire, wielding a callback weapon in the form of the blood estoc.

There's a distorted picture that I took of a treeline in the background. Somewhere in there is a monarch butterfly.

Otherwise, as stated, I wanted to emulate one of those breakcore album cover and whatever. I think i did pretty ok without resorting to absolutely annihilating any semblance of visual clarity!

I think it'll make for a fun base down the line to distort further.

just a closer crop since i'm sure the image compression here will be borderline lethal. it's ok. i don't mind.

ENDLESS PATROL. ONE MORE CLEAR NIGHT. DON'T YOU LOVE ME, PILOT?

OPEN BLUE. GRAND WESTERN. SANDSTONE LAYS SIDEWAYS, TRACING LINES ACROSS THE DESERT. SOMETHING ANCIENT AND TERRIBLE HAS TURNED THIS WORLD ON ITS SIDE.

But that doesn't matter to you, Filament. You choose, today and forever, to ignore the cracks in your dying world. Because as long as that turbine spins, as long as that hydraulic loop has pressure, your body has wings. And it means you'll be free. Even if you'll never know where, or why. Even if you'll never come home again.

ENDLESS PATROL. ONE MORE CLEAR NIGHT. DON'T YOU LOVE ME, PILOT?

The future is never. You'll never see her again, Pilot. Not between your sheets, nor the doorways of your home, and never in your arms again. You'll never remember that face, only the contours, contrails, burned into white vortex and wake at the corners of her smile. Remembering the trace of her hands on your back will forever be the same as surface flow, rolling and coiling and then pouring off into tides of unclean nothingness. Fluid dynamics. The depths of memory. You'll never separate us. It's all the same, now. The sea and the sky, dark blue to endless dark blue. Together, fingers interlinked, tendons and ailerons together. Infrared searching, eyes flitting. Thermal outlines of hips and canards and shoulder blades and weapon bays. Bodies, the same. Sea, like the sky.

You're going to get into that cockpit again. Walk the line, that razor's edge. There's nowhere like the sky anymore, not for you. Come and chase the untouchable. Come find us, in the merge. That's where you'll feel it, one more time, Pilot.

FIRST LOVE AND LAST AGAIN. MACH TWO AGAINST YOUR LIPS. TOUCH THE SKY, OR DIE TRYING.

Hello my dear followers:
If you're not following the best inktoberman on the internet maybe ever, you should do so. He goes hard EVERY time. (Good spaceships and characters on the off season too!)

Inktober 2: North Aultin Pass
The closest thing to a safe passage over the Indras, a fact which has contributed to the Southron Reach's historical isolation from its landward neighbors.

Inktober 3: Gwen Weatherall
A veteran ruins-delver, she returned to her home village after winning her fortune as an adventurer. Though long retired, she's been known to don the old arms and armor when going on "adventurous" walkabouts with her children.

Inktober 4: Tower Approach
Though it is a landmark seen all across the reach's gulf, few ever make the long trek to the Moonrise Tower.

A long-overdue redesign of the hero vessel of my biggest personal setting, INTERDICTOR.

The ideas were in the right place, but I needed to sit down and codify them better. Four years of artistic growth will do that. If there's interest, I can post a side-by-side with the old illustration.

Sidereal Neurontological Operations Warship Special Development Prototype / Object 2991 / "BOREALIS"

The public knows this vessel as a one-off neuroship built by the State; the fulcrum of a political disaster. But to its pilot, the ship is a promise. To his wife, to the world, and to all humankind.
