And one more daft bit of pinup art before I go to bed. Tomorrow we're scheduled a power cut for a few hours, so here's hoping that it really will be four hours and I won't end up back in the medieval era for 50 days.
Sentient machines gatekept by the 'Sorting-Brainscan' from personhood. Bummer day when you fail your Voight-Kampff encephalogram, mechicare denied, botkids confiscated, become a human's iServant. (Neofeud 1 scene) https://store.steampowered.com/app/673850/Neofeud/

And another bit of art featuring a character with a darker skin tone. I think I've come far enough to feel comfortable lighting in controlled environments like this one, which is essentially a photographic studio, but I'll have to practise a bit more before I'm any good at more candid scenes (as candid as they get in 3D Modelling, at least).
My point and click cyberpunk-themed adventure Neon Hearts City is coming out in May!

> Excellent scenario. Carefully calibrated scenes. Classic structure (i.e. a semi-routine investigation reveals a vast conspiracy), but this is great transhumanist cyberpunk. The best SF film I've seen in many years.
Reviews like this make the blood, sweat and tears working on this adventure game while being an underpaid social worker in the US ghetto worth it. And yeah, let's make cyberpunk PUNK again! https://store.steampowered.com/app/673850/ #cyberpunk #indiegame #indiedev #SteamDeals
And another angle of the museum I laid out (yes, it has my own art -- I didn't want the generic paintings that came with the environment and started running out of time.)
And I did manage to get the main locations done for comic. Here are the two most photogenic ones.
“Hiya Steve, thank you for having us on the podcast. I’m Wei, this is my wife Galadwen. We’ve just finished a job for Doniol, who are the largest union of Clowns, Stage Magicians and Children’s Entertainers in Wales.
“What’s that? No, no, they don’t have any clown strippers. I think they join Cwtch, the sex workers’ union.
“Anyway, as you know, the dimensional instability of the Gower means that Swansea has a problem with I.T.s, or Interdimensional Terrorclowns. As union, Doniol is taking action because their members have seen a 40% drop in bookings.
Doniol is one of our main employers – this one is our third I.T. clearance this week.
“We’ve also got a grant from the Council to find the source of the clowns and close it. It’s not safe for them either – they started coming through in the 1960s, in New England, and Swansea is just too much of a culture shock for most of them.
"It’s not uncommon for us to track a clown and find out they’ve been stabbed; in New England in the 60s if you turned into a big spider, you’d have an easy time, but kids in Swansea? Well, you’ve better really have a Nintendo Switch, that’s all I’m saying.
“Sorry? Oh, don’t worry about that. Gally’s just upset because this one started its hunting cycle. It happens sometimes – in the 60s they didn’t really have guns that could hurt I.T.s, so they don’t always take us seriously.
"Our boy here basically painted the bathroom in ectoplasmic menstrual blood, and we just had to run out of the house and chase him, so… we’ve got that to do when we get home. It wouldn’t be a problem, but my granny’s coming from Medan tomorrow, and Gally wanted to make a good impression.
“Don’t worry, babes, you’ve got an engineering degree, they already love you.”

Einer der #Phantastik-Freaks meines Vertrauens, #DamienWalter, jubelt über #Transmetropolitain, der Warren Ellis- & Darick Robertson-Serie über einen Gonzo-Punk-Journalisten in einer hyper-neoliberalen #Cyberpunk-Welt, die von 1997 bis 2002 bei Vertigo in 60 Heften erschien.
Und aktuell wie eh und je.
(BTW: Schade, dass die Verfilmung mit Patrick Steward in der Produktions-Hölle versandet ist. Wäre eine dolle Rolle für ihn gewesen.)

"You almost killed me. Almost."
A bit of art I did after work yesterday. Not bad, given how much I ordinarily suck at art featuring characters with darker skin tones (Also, not my best, but passable, which is better than a lot of the stuff I've done which has never seen the light of day.
