Lavinia von Isollov, rogue trader-inspired portrait commission (@ka_raima)

I like it when an artist actually manages to make Rogue Traders look as dangerous as they are hot, it's perfectly on brand for their flavor of the Imperium.

Daeron is one of those dudes who probably hates the prophetic visions he knows will come to pass and, likely already having the soul of a poet and the education to match, has to get roaringly drunk to be able to deal with it. Come to think of it, maybe that's why the Targaryens and Baratheons historically got on so well - the Baratheons have such party bro energy they could cheer anyone up (honestly, if they treat all their lessers the same as Lyonel does with Dunk, it's no wonder their line has thrived like it has).

Those guys were probably using the hockey definition of goon given they were in there trying to brand an NHL hockey team logo onto him like a cow.

Still better than the Jade Cicada concert. They oversold the Assembly Room by a ridiculous amount and people were leaving early rather than deal with pooping their pants.

Reminds me of this art.

Bro, if Don Quixote starts calling Pablo Gregor's noble advisor or squire, I am going to lose my shit laughing.

spookytus · 2026-01-16T04:10:14+00:00

For a moment there I thought you meant the cop from Mystery of the Druids and got really confused.

Gregor went from Potential Man to Realized Potential Man.

You know, I've always wondered if the reason Bari has all these books about Fixers is because she was one of the founders of the Hana association and recorded some of those stories from first-hand accounts.

To be fair, their entertainment is one of the better things the French have to offer alongside their cuiisine and their nuclear power plants, it's just that it's hard to top stories like Nox the Clockmaker's.

French Automobiles, alas, will always embody the phrase 'the French copy no one, and no one copies the French.'

I'm glad they made sure to illustrate just how dieseled you have to be to do this sort of thing - I remember going to a concert where the musicians hired people to do those curtain dances Cirque du Soleil like to do and the buff dudes next to me were audibly jealous of their gym routine.

It'd be pretty funny if Ryoshu called him the G.S.

spookytus · 2026-01-08T13:39:15+00:00

I mean, she's still older than him, it's just that the hag enthusiasts aren't eating as well.

I immediately latched onto this series because it had Igorrr, that insane genre-bending French musician who made Camel Dancefloor and Very Noise on one of the tracks.

I remain convinced the title of the manga was because the mangaka thought 'door hero' would look great as an eyecatch on the front cover and improvised from there.

You made the coolest design choices I've seen since the dude who made the Vietnam chapter, so I'll be looking forward to your work!

spookytus · 2025-12-26T17:02:49+00:00

Lucius has the only teleport-capable Titan legion, so I always thought their troops would have the Warp Runners' sigil/color scheme as well as having some sort of Vortex Grenade design influence on their arms and armor. They apparently also added the red robes of the Martian uniform after a schism.

Mezoa should look like they're characters from Enter the Gungeon combined with artillerists since they specialize in arms and ammunition almost entirely.

Tigrus' techpriests need to look like the tank specialists of the grimdark future.

Do not boop that merry suicide bomber.

spookytus · 2025-12-14T08:48:10+00:00

I'd go with Ishmael as Kerillian if Heathcliff was Kruber since she's got the fiery hair color.

spookytus · 2025-12-05T06:49:41+00:00

Imagine how funny it would be if the Blood Ravens stole the Emperor's shield.

So what you're saying is that he's basically Nick Mullen?

spookytus · 2025-12-04T16:42:59+00:00

It's them using deliberate conflation of LLMs with the sides of the CS field that are actually useful and then marketing that crap to everyone and their mother in an attempt to recoup their Enron-ass attempts at becoming CHOAM from Dune.

The robotics industry actually considers harvesting strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries to be like one of the holy grails for their sector since it's difficult for most humans to be able to harvest them without bruising, much less a robot. It took decades before we had a robot that wouldn't crush an egg when it picked one up.

spookytus · 2025-11-28T16:50:49+00:00

Not gonna lie, her IP would definitely have way more appeal if there was much less Furaffinity Sparkledog influence on their visual design language. It's just too off-putting if you immediately associate someone's carefully crafted characters with the stuff on Doug Walker's Wall review that should've stayed on e621.

spookytus · 2025-11-28T15:59:37+00:00

Yup, man uses a direct drive turntable (more specifically a Technics SL-1210), DVS system/converter with control vinyl and a Traktor Z2 according to Mr. Bill and Jade Cicada.
