Sublight Drive Crafts

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

Examples of typical medium-weight armor. Important for maintaining a baseline of comparison for my crew of weirdo specialists.

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE.

They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

“Abolish ICE” is literally the MODERATE position in America today. Not even the position Schumer’s constituents are demanding. The MODERATE position is “abolish.”

With all that’s going on I hope games and devs get even more political. It’s a joke cos nothing is devoid of politics especially with art but I just hope people start to own it more. F*ck fascism and don’t let them bastards grind you down.

三次元CADって立体お絵描きツールですね

I'm reminded of the quote I see every once in a while about how police struggle to dismantle anarchist groups because they can't identify group leaders.

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?

ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.

I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.

the regime considers all resistance violent resistance. you chanting while holding a sign and carefully remaining on the sidewalk is as worthy of the death penalty to them as someone throwing a Molotov.

Usually only if I’m painting something small enough that doing shading in all the little crevasses and details would be a pain. I tend to prefer a neutral base since I can bring lights up and darks down, as opposed to worrying about bringing EVERYTHING up

That said, you can also learn a lot from traditional artists- miniature painting has a lot in common since you're fundamentally trying to do the trick of "make something flat look big and complex". I've learned a lot about light, depth, making things look more "real", etc. from painting tutorials.

Preshading is just what it sounds like, working in shadows and highlights before the main colors go down. You could use it for whatever parts you like, since it's just a method of bringing up or down details. I learned most of what I know about shading from Nightshift and Plasmo on YouTube

This is great!! Remind me of some of the ships from the Alien franchise

Love seeing the little guys in the wild!!

Love how this Atlas by @liquidillumination.bsky.social is coming along!!

Current project I've been working on from a design by @sublightdrive.bsky.social

A well loved hydrant

you learned nothing, you practiced nothing, you diminished yourself, you outsourced your human capacity for growth, intelligence, and personal reflection to a fucking jerk-you-off machine

Man After Man: An Anthropology of the Future (1990) is a speculative book written by Scottish geologist Dougal Dixon and illustrated by Philip Hood. The scene depicts a future evolutionary descendant of man a "tundra dweller" attacked by a different descendants species of man in a wintery setting. I'm the distance more large assed members of the tundra dwellers ignore the violent scene. SEASONS GREASONS ONE AND ALL

Watch me build the J-77 Fulcrum from scratch:
Not quite enough detail for you? Full video is up on YouTube

Share your flying machines!

I love this tube. The way it’s filthier along the top where it’s less likely to be brushed against, the patch in the middle. It is segmented like a huge armored bug. The one discolored circle, like it was burned or overheated. I keep looking at it and finding more details that tell more stories

A grey, boxy spaceship against a background of stars and cosmic dust. A blue drive plume can be seen behind it, suggesting it is flying towards the viewer. In large white block text above it, the words “J-77 FULCRUM”, and above that in smaller font, the phrase “Lift the Worlds”

The Rochelle Heavy Dynamics J-77 Fulcrum.
Kit and template for making it yourself are both available on my Etsy shop, go check it out!

A grey spaceship against a black background with no stars. It is streaked and scuffed with grime and rust.

A blue and orange spaceship, of the same design as the first. It is similarly grimy and rusty.

Both spaceships posing together, against a black background.

Ugly. Heavy. Reliable.
The Rochelle Heavy Dynamics J-77 Fulcrum is the first choice when you need to get that ore shipment to Tau Ceti and you don't need it to be pretty.

New video up (hopefully) later today.

These look great!!
