Published in color!

I don't have much to say except I'm published in color now, so... booyah. I just recently finished some stuff I can't show, and I'm really close to finishing some stuff I can, so you'll get to see that all in due time. Until then, feel free to entertain yourself with these pretty pictures from Shadowrun: 5th edition.

Chase

Fun fact: I've never painted a hover-bike chase. WHY?

Little genre trope tidbits: the good guy is on the right because #1. he just served a plate full of foot to the dude on the left #2. his bike is scrappy and worn (sci fi fans have been taught to be suspicious of anything too smooth and perfect) #3. he's got a cape, which gives him a little personality other than 'random helmet man.' I'd fit a dog in there if I could, just to make sure you knew he was endearing. But a kick to the face will have to do.

The Veil

We will never have flying cars for personal use. Of all the things we might have in the future: cyborgs, space exploration, a penchant for ridiculous fashion, we will never have flying cars. It isn't impossible to invent. It is impossible to make it safe.

We can't really have thinking robots either. Let's face it, people, it just takes one loose wire, overly logical computing assessment, or Will Smith before they go haywire. I mean, this robot chick looks nice. She's giving us some kind of weird look, but it's friendly enough.

I painted her in oils on illustration board. She's 16x19. But like I said, just one solar flare later she's opening air locks and flooding the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin.
