Birrin studies to nail down anatomy for the book project.
Their forefoot claws are excellent at sensing infrasound through the substrate. Indeed, some of their alarm systems are more like thumpers than terrestrial sirens.

HAPPY 32nd ANNIVERSARY STAR FOX!!!
This was the game that started it all for me. Some of my earliest little doodles were of Arwings in my kindergarten notebook, and I’m so thankful to the passionate devs and artists who created this game decades ago for inspiring me to be the artist I’ve become. Coming back to this series has really revived my artistic energy, and I can’t wait to create more prints like this one. Once I have my shop open, this one will be one of the first prints available, so stay tuned!!
(And yes, if you haven’t noticed, this was also inspired by the iconic illustrated Star Wars poster from the 70s)

Some concept art and a cover for my likely not upcoming "hard" sci-fi superhero story called "Whispers in the Stars." The story stars our Superman stand-in "The Juggerknight," aka, Delroy Mathews Jenkins Jr., or just Del for short, and his voyage across space and time as what can best be described as the incarnation of Mars. Unfortunately for him, when he first got his powers, he accidentally fell through the first two stories of his house and killed most of his immediate family on a warm Christmas Eve except for his brother in Nebraska and his remaining granddaughter who was at a sleepover, in essence, he's a living neutron star as while he's only 3ish meters tall, he weighs almost as much as Phobos, when conscious, he's always levitating.
He has all the typical "superman" powers such as super strength, super speed, controlled levitation, complete invincibility, and gamma ray vision (he can practically shoot quasars from his eye and fingers if he wants). There's also some unique abilities such as just not needing to eat or rest (not that he could eat as he no longer has any orifices), the ability to make "shields" of space where the speed of light is zero, the ability to instantly understand alien languages (not their thought processes tho, most of their sentences sound/look like gibberish to him) and that he's rather "slow" compared to most other supermen, as in he can only go upwards of seven times the speed of light (he doesn't move much faster than Mach 10 on inhabited planets and 89 m/s in cities) He can also move through wormholes in this setting, which only light and gravitons should be able to move through (idk about reality, I just want semi-instant communication but no ftl)
Still, it isn't really the powers that make him superman, but his heart, which is very much needed in his dark forest universe (civilizations less than 20 light years apart are generally friends till star pop or heat death). As in, he'd stay with and attempt to comfort somebody attempting suicide, patch up and stay connected with a styrofoamer, rescue some old lady's stupid cat from a tree, swat those sperm-looking military drones from the sky, rescue any and everyone from a building bombed by aforementioned drones, regardless of their affiliations, and then frame and hang a child's shitty artwork of him/themselves as a supe around his house. Heck, the only (cannon) reason his armor is purple and blue is that his granddaughter and one of his remaining army buddies suggested it as opposed to the creepy "natural" white-grey of his suit that gives more "I'm here to sterilize your planet" than "I'm a weirdo given the powers of a god and will use it to make the world a better place bit by bit... then spray graffiti on varying national monuments cause what are you gonna do about it?"
Alright, finally onto the next supe, their name is "Pyninby," and he's essentially some magical girl who's essentially a heavily enhanced Akira or highly nerfed Dr. Manhattan. Much like Del, her powers just suddenly activated, specifically while playing with friends and, well you can imagine what happened to his friends, family, and entire home city. Hell, she was more or less an area of ruined, ever-changing space till he reached twelve in both human and brunniee years. Pyn never goes by it/that pronouns specifically as the varying word and space governments of their people referred to their first "form" as such, they could hear and see everything they were saying yet had no means of communication. Their Madoka-esc outfit specifically comes from the joy and comfort given to them by her girlfriends, his space navy uncle with whom she lives most of the time, and their mentor/adoptive father Delroy. His second form looked closer to the depressive blue glowing demi-god Dr. Manhattan. His favorite foods include basically any type of brunniee cake and sorbert, small vertebrates and bugs she notices when grazing, improvised explosives, and city sweepers such as hydrogen/antimatter bombs.
As for their powers, they pretty can do pretty much anything they can imagine but generally attack using barrages of manifested magic guns, missiles, and particle beams in a similar manner to Mami from Maodka. The ability to reach three times the speed of light and also the capability to move through wormholes.
The Elsen-looking mfs are how background/unnamed humans will be portrayed in the series, important humans look like people.
The regular brunniee is an early concept for Pyn's uncle and is not the final design. He survived her "ascension" to "godhood" by being on tour fighting a war over territorial disputes for the largest of the three brunniee gas giants... He really hates any type of alarm because that generally meant a fusion-propelled missile was speeding toward the space submarine and he'd die at 26. despite their mammalian appearance, they're closer analogs to archosaurs such as birds and non-avian dinosaurs.
I call this hard sci-fi because everything aside from the superheroes would be rather "realistic" such as space crafts not being to exceed the speed of light, their battles being closer to submarine warfare, semi-alien psychology/biology, and the aliens using para terraforming tactics /space mega-structures to colonize their solar systems (they could turn their shitty Venuses and Mars analogs into a silicon copy of their home world, but that'd likely take thousands of years and they live in they tend to live immediate now).

... Rather upset Tearykitten deactivated as I didn't have any other means of contact and can't check in anymore
Forearm Shiver, Fake Orchestra, Faithless Purification(megalovania remix), and NEOtech:Online (GenericAntagonist and Underformer remixes respectively) would fit the series like a glass slipper

It had never seen the sun before, it’s a shame it surfaced on an overcast day.

A very experimental art for me, i want to try out some new style. ihnmaims radio drama got me in a chokehold and possessed me to draw this.
Also I'm giving Ted zero gyatt cus that man did not deserve it.
Note :
- the binary translates as "HATEHATE" on repeat.
- the pair of punchcode tapes representing AM's talkfield, are from the original short story. The left one is "I THINK, THEREFORE I AM" and the right is "COGITO ERGO SUM".
โอ้ยปวดตา
Update : I posted a timelapse here!

I cannot stress enough how important the thumb-nailing and color study process is, it makes an insaaaane difference in the quality of (at least my) work. Anyways, here’s a finished final for my sci-fi and fantasy illustration class (the prompt was human and alien interaction).
