I can never keep track of #portfolioday. I’m Zando, a hobby artist who spends most of the time illustrating my fictional scifi setting, #hibourverse

Bigfin squid encounter with human bullshit every time: “That’s the brightest predator I’ve ever seen in my entire pitch black life, I have no concept of primates, for I am a collection of noodles. Guess I’ll die from irreversible climate change… or get tangled in the submersible propeller.”

“I missed you” #hibourverse #scifi #space

A sensory deprivation unit. Young Maris will spend academic sessions in these pods to exercise their cybernetic brains and cutaneous respiration while learning all the things an aspiring acolyte needs to know. Its one of the few times a young Quodilus will be isolated from her sisters #hibourverse

Perfection

Drawing a Day - 8 June It was she that split the heavens wide and wrote etchings upon the marbled halls of time. Her cryptic words still ripple across the empty weave. The long hollows of forever chant her rhythmic warning… which bade us flee into the night. - Herald of the Chronocene, SE 2677

“War terrorizes the south lands! For the first time since the interstellar age, the very sanctity of our way of life is at stake! My brothers and sisters, will you stand for the Commonwealth? No heathen oligarchy shall thrive under Tau Ceti! Radio recruitment ad- Calphis, 187

If you see this, post your blue art

Artists, QRP with the first ever picture of your OC and the most recent one:

That’s some Old Testament shit right there.

Mainstream media quietly forgetting that single pilot commercial ops met a fiery end just a year ago… in light of safety oversight, the commercial industry is actually moving in the opposite direction…

As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.

Gorgeous. Stunning… my inner 9-year old would stay up past bedtime to watch this on Toonami for sure

What’s this? There was a starship launch today and I didn’t see a single post about it? Weird what my timeline has become

As of 2373, no true space war has ever occurred in Sol, but the threat of catastrophic war has loomed over humanity for centuries now. #hibourverse #illustration #space #digitalart

A very large MMO warship -- more stuff from the end of the period I'm focusing on in TTT. This one belongs to Yad and is notable for its size (~680m)

Messengers from #space: Invisible particles become visible in this bubble chamber which turns cosmic radiation into tracks you can watch in real time. Thin zigzags are electrons, long straight paths are muons, and thick short trails come from alpha particles losing their energy rapidly. 🔭 #physics

“Now, Miss Hiara, let’s tell me about these dreams you’ve been having…” #hibourverse #scifi

Saturnian pieces, 2018-2019

Maris cathedrals are normally designed around enormous quantities of water. In fact, they often double as city aquifers. #hibourverse #scifi #illustration #water

sorry to jet, but I'm in a hurry! #art #starfox

May the 4th be with you. Crew patch, Operation Inherent Resolve, 2021. Really, really good crew… I hope they’re all doing well.

Ya'll like space trees

Some ancient treeship doodles

Thinking about cockpit shape Kinda tempted to forego it altogether and have "no glass" be a common theme on dedicated military equipment but will hafta see

Been too long since I last drew Gray or Phoebe, let alone in armor.

As of 2373, both Titan and Callisto have a larger population than the whole of Mars. Martian orbit, however, is quite populated with numerous nations. #hibourverse

Chromata, one of the four Diamond Cities of the Cassini Dependencies. While most Saturnian void cities are made from parked asteroids, Chromata and her sister orbitals are built out of deconstructed moonlets within Saturn's ring system. #hibourverse

Day 9: Hunter A remote, signal collecting spacecraft makes a low pass over Despina. Her antenna is turned away from noisy Neptune, facing outward into the high orbits... listening sharply, hunting. She is one of many thousands in the outer Solar System. #SST25 #spaceshiptember2025

Gagarin Station in 2093, a 4 km diameter Stanford Torus, flanked here by a Tereshkova-class shuttle. They didn't forget the radiator arrays necessary to get rid of all the heat generated by the population aboard! #space #art by Lilly Harper. beaconsinthedark.wordpress.com/2024/01/19/g...

Oh my god it was 200% funded before I even woke up and fed the cat

Superimpose these charts with those of other aircraft (cargo/tanker/C2/ISR/rescue) and infrastructure (runways, secure hangers, radar, comm, fuel storage and transport, munitions, base defense) and you'll paint a surprising and concerning picture of the USAF... and the DoD as a whole.

If you’ve been moved & inspired by Artemis, NASA needs your help. Literally during A2, the president proposed cutting NASA science 47%, canceling 54 missions, including many already in-flight. To help stop these cuts, check out @planetarysociety.bsky.social www.planetary.org/save-nasa-sc...
