I forgot to post this yesterday, but we've got two more of these this year. Thought that counts?

Stefan Poag bringing that old school heat. Man, I just cannot get enough of his stuff. Pure OSR magic.
My art assets and dystopic, corporate entity branding work, so far, for a Mothership adventure and sourcebook I'm working on.
Thank you! I don't get to make "clean" art often, so it's fun to noodle in this style.
A little puddle jumper, exterior and interior.
I'm displaying the maps on a 27" CRT that I intend to flush mount to the bottom of a 50", round table.
I took a lot of the art drawn from my two-level Cottage (organic research vessel) and standardized it, added some detail to it, and pieced it out.
Here's one level from that map and another new, dystopic corporate entity logo.
I'm leaning into the '70s origin of Alien for all the corpo aesthetics.
I made an Affinity asset library for all the bits and bobs I'm adding to sci-fi maps for my Mothership sourcebook.
It makes piecing together complex scenes (like this Ace Judicial corporate mediation chamber) buildable, fast.
Two more fake, evil corp. for Mothership.
Pfft, of course. If something is being extra tricky, I just adjust my grid or scale the object to have more squares to align with. It's flexible and easy.
More or less--I just like having a quick way to snap to midpoints and judge my proportionality. Kinda like rule of thirds, but for symmetry and balance!
'Couple more fictional corporations for a Mothership sourcebook I'm working on. The list grows, but the corpo stooges and grunts gotta come from somewhere. And the businesses beget all the rest in a setting like this.
Compilation of all my Mothership corpo-distopia logos from yesterday and tonight. Got a lot more to make for my sourcebook.
I've freelance illustrated & designed for clients like Nike, Burton, Nickelodeon, MST3K, etc, for 20+ years, so I'm putting on my vector hat for these and having some fun.
Fuck. ๐
I bought an X-Shot nerf-alike on sale that had a Poppy character on it, and it hits like a tank. That's my entire exposure, and it's a stupid toy.
Report back your findings if curiosity takes you.
Some of the logos are one-revision wonders, others (cough, VSC), are a very iterative process.
I'll look for it! My Discord DMs are a dumpster fire because of the social club. On it.
Glad you dig 'em!
Thanks! Fun to noodle on.
Thanks!
Working on the fictional independent corporate entities for my dystopic Mothership ttrpg sourcebook.
It's a great excuse to make some fake logos. Lmao.
Ink drawing of the Flatwoods monster
Final color art of the Flatwoods monster
Finished the Flatwoods monster today - artofcoop.threadless.com/designs/flat...
VTT Map for the ttrpg Mothership module I've written. Level one, crew quarters, medbay, restrooms, mess hall, engineering, storage/refuse, dock, airlock.
VTT Map for the ttrpg Mothership module I've written. Level two, cryo sleep, bridge, research lap, corpo-stooge living area.
Finished my two-level corpo-research vessel map for a @mothership.bsky.social one-shot I'm running soon.
Drawing all the bits as I went is creating a bit of a vector asset library to more quickly make maps for Mothership in the future which makes me happy.
Had a blast drawing the tiny bits on this @mothership.bsky.social adventure map. Now I just need to finish two other levels.
Cottage is my in-fiction Weyland-Yutani analog, so it felt right to pun.
I'm drawing the first level map of a @mothership.bsky.social one-shot I'm writing. I just need to finish the armory and the armory security scanner room. Close.
100 year old walnut lining the walls of room setup for playing tabletop RPGs. There's a 12' projected battlemap and two faux-windows with hand animated scenes.
Making some new animations for my club's game room, today (I projection mapped the walls and table for running D&D--well, DCC, in my case).
Gammorean guard, taxidermied head wall mount sculpt. Wip. Tinkering as I have time.
HI HI HI.
HUMAN artists, use only one piece to convince people to follow you.
