Looks like sketch #1 is gonna be the winner !!! I got a little distracted with FR drama, but oogh time to paint this bitch

Note: I am selecting option #1 in the poll so I can actually see results >: which means one vote in that will Not count.

Both are of my big eldritch space god looming over Earth.

Sketch #1 (horizontal) is curious arrival, and is also the more 'biblically accurate' version of her. She's kindof noticing Earth for the first time and making her presence known.

Sketch #2 (vertical), she's pissed because of humanity's spite and is about to absolutely flame everybody. Also a lot more solidly defined (because she's been tainted by human perception ooughou symbolism).

Gonna be painting this in gouache. I may very well do both btw! Just. Tell me which one I should do first 😭

WET BEAST WEDNESDAY

WET SPACEBEAST WEDNESDAY

[phoebelovingcare]

Elfilis being hella fine is something I'll agree with until the end of time, we gotta love our speedy space murder chinchilla who can kick your head off just like how giraffes can kick lions with enough force to decapitate em.

Elfilis can decapitate you with a kick just like how Melmen the Giraffe from Madagascar could decapitate Leon/Leongar with a kick.

Nature is truely horrifying in the most beautiful ways.

Elfilis is a gorgeous streamlined elegant spacebeast and they could crush planetoids between their thighs

Candidate for Completion - Belly Of The Beast

Belly Of The Beast

The solar system had never stood a chance, and other, nearer systems were already starting to look nervous. For a given value of nervous, of course, being that they were just collections of rock, ice and various gases. It can only be imagined that they would be nervous, if they could be capable of it. Humanity was coming, after all. Anyone with any sense would be bricking it.

WHAT

“So. Humanity found an inexplicable monster floating in space and decided that the best thing they could do with it was move in and live there? At enormous personal expense given they need everything worthwhile to be shipped in to them?” She asked, gesturing angrily at the screen as though the distant, twinkling spacebeast was somehow to blame for all of this.

“Yes,” her father said, bluntly. Jenny shook her head and rubbed her face.

“How did we even get into space…”

Somewhere in the solar system - closer to the Sun than Earth, further than Mercury - there orbits a spacebeast. Naturally, humanity has chosen to live on it. It’s living on every other place available, why not?

The orbit is stable, and the spacebeast itself is safely comatose, having suffered some sort of catastrophic head injury at some point in the distant past. It’s quite safe, quite safe. And people live on it!

And that’s fine and dandy and everything is tip-top and perfectly normal. Until a strange convergence of circumstances leads to three plucky teens coming together in a quest for REVENGE!

In SPACE!

WHO

“Does he not talk?” Jenny asked, nodding to Max.

“Max sees the virtue in speaking rarely and with great weight. I fill up for quantity,” said Thaddeus.

“I noticed.”

There are three of the plucky teens.

There is Thaddeus. He is from a fine and fancy noble House, the rich people who live in the spacebeast and who just...hang around being rich and really odd. They hunt strange creatures, they have parties, they hobnob, everything’s fine. Then one day his whole family is slaughtered and he is the only one to escape.

His gimmick is twofold. First, being a fine and fancy noble, he is genetically mucked about with. This manifests as him being very tough, such as being able to survive being shot and not finding it particularly unpleasant. Second, his sense of morality is supposed to be way out of whack. He means well but he’s WEIRD.

There is Jenny. Jenny does not live on the spacebeast. She and her dad run (or ran) a little interplanetary cargo company and were employed by a guy to bring himself and some of his stuff to the spacebeast. Only it turns out what he was bringing was a whole load of illegal robots. Finding this, Jenny then finds out that he has - in panic - killed her father. He then crashes their ship into the spacebeast.

Jenny is straightforward. Her motivations are to find the man who killed her dad and twist his head off like a champagne cork. Luckily for her she’s wearing a big, heavy, industrial hardsuit that is vacuum resistant. This makes her a fucking walking tank. Downsides? She doesn’t know jackshit about the spacebeast or how any of it works or where anything is.

There is Max. Max lives in the guts of the spacebeast, making a quote-unquote ‘living’ by scraping the weird growths off the side like so many other destitute people. Max’s parents died a while ago in a freak gut-based accident. Max is a quiet boy, and mostly wants to avoid people because people pick on him.

Unluckily for Max, Thaddeus finds him and - because they’re both orphans - declares that he and Max are now friends and brothers, and drags him along on his quest.

And then there are bad guys: whoever murdered Thaddeus’s family, and that guy who killed Jenny’s dad. They both have plans, and they’re all going to have to die.

WHERE

Sitting down and raising an arm to try to suck out one of the bullets, Thaddeus thought back to what had just happened. Had there been any identifying features on the attackers? Anything that might help him work out who was responsible, where they lived and how best he could wreak exquisite vengeance on them? 

With a slurp and a spurt the blunted remains of a slug popped into his mouth and he swished it around absentmindedly, his face a mask of concentration.

Weirdly, this is probably the most ‘conventional’ thing I have going. Here are the protagonists, they want this, this and this. Here are the antagonists, they want that, that and that. Boom. Go at it.

And I kind of know the through-line, too. There’s setup, there’s stuff where people are murdered, there’s meetings, there’s shared goals and there’s getting shit done. Moving up through the spacebeast, finding out answers, writing wrongs and getting revenge. REVENGE!

That’s kind of issue here. There’s a lot of action involved in this story - lots of punching and jumping and hyah! - and I hate, hate, hate that shit so trying to get it down is going to be a chore.

That said this story does have, in my head, a surprisingly unambiguously happy ending. Which for me is quite something.

WHY

“Later on we can all have a nice sit down and a nice chat about the cyclical nature of revenge and how violence only serves to engender move violence and we can have this chat after I have ripped off this guy’s head and kicked his body out of an airlock. Okay?” 

The whole driving force of Belly Of The Beast is the gag of “Wouldn’t it be funny if the motivating factor for a bunch of plucky teens was just straight-up revenge and, what’s more, explicitly violent revenge at that? What a hoot that’d be!”

That is literally the extent of the plot. Two of the protagonists want to violently murder those who have done them wrong, while the third just goes along so as not to cause a fuss (and, later, because he just latches onto the other two for dear life because they’re nice to him).

All set against a background of lunacy, obviously.

They’re living inside a SPACEBEAST!

WELL

“And we’re going to be in the same room together again and I am going to twist your head off like a bottletop and then me and my buddies here are going to go and get ice cream,” said Jenny. Behind her, Thaddeus clapped with delight.

“She remembered the ice cream!”

It’s a case of mustering the enthusiasm to push through and get some other, later chunks of the story done. I’ve got big parts of the beginning already sorted - character introductions and the like. All I really need is to bang out a few of the later set pieces, cook up a few more, bang those out and then, later still, join them all up.

I’m actually vaguely fond of at least two of the protagonists. Thaddeus amuses me because his schtick is that he’s relentlessly cheerful and pleasant while also having a moral code that is basically inhuman. His whole belief system - and that of his family and peers - is meant to be utterly alien and weird.

Jenny is an angry girl in a suit of power armour. It’s very self-indulgent of me.

Max remains something of a non-entity. But that could change! And should. Especially as he’s meant to represent the balance between the two. Shy, non-violent and levelheaded.

But, we shall see...
