Quilakhi, probably one of the most controversial transhuman species in Sol. There’s no particular reason to develop a venomous human genome… and their reputation suffers for it. hibourverse.com/quilakhi-2/ #hibourverse #scifi #transhuman

Some of my scifi work

I really hate that the vast majority of the OSINT community is isolated on Twitter, especially during times like this.

Dive 023, Kavi Maquis (Teegarden) - "Encountered the tape structures again at 1850 meters. At first, all characteristics were consistent with previous encounters... until we found a strand with eyes.

I’m an ex-Air Force pilot turned airline pilot and at a glance I can’t identify most regional jets aside from engine placement and tail configuration… “That there’s a regional jet with aft mounted engines and a T-tail, I tellyuhwat”

There's a million and one applications for somnoptic projections, but most people have enough processing power to generate their own aesthetics. As a result, without filtering, a crowd of otherwise silent people might still look overwhelming to cybernetic eyes. #hibourverse

If you followed me on the other place, you know I love me some transhuman space nuns Read more here: hibourverse.com/quodilus-mar... and here: hibourverse.com/telahus-mari...

Hua-Maupe One of the more common transhuman genomes, Maupe are found in most outer solar system spheres. #hibourverse #transhumans #illustration

Forgot to post this for SST, but here it is now The BSB (Bog Standard Beamrider) is a workhorse of passenger and freight transport. Made of a standardized drive and tankage stack, use of both electric and thermal drives makes BSBs extremely flexible in terms of achievable orbits and travel times.

The popularity of decommissioned Jackknifes with shipping co-ops came as no surprise to Astoria Starworks, who quickly began work on a dedicated light freighter. Fully automated and propelled by an economical magneto-inertial-fusion engine, the Boxcutter was the result.

Some more angles and cargo modules.

Solar moth's are much beloved by hobbyist spacecraft pilots for their simplicity, decent performance, and ease of fueling. The "Gossamer Chariot" is a prime example, being used as a private company shuttle for a lunar industrial outfit.

While the utility of dazzle camo on spacecraft which fight beyond visual range is often questioned, no one doubts that it makes for a rather striking livery. Featuring @kerbo.bsky.social's UFS-It159 "Glacier" orbital control fighter.

We're messing around with designs for new Guild drones!

A merchant ship falls behind the formation during a crossing of the wind wastes on Calphis. This isn't an ideal situation. The barrens offer no sanctuary for a forced landing. The nearest settlements could be thousands of kilometers away. #hibourverse #illustration #NalinaofCalphis

Space Ship Haaviq Aqui Laboratory floats in the seas of Icthara, a conservation orbital over Saturn. The ship is believed to be nearly as old as the orbital itself. #hibourverse #scifi #illustration

A study on drawing a hot Jupiter's nightside. The dayside is overexposed. The nightside is pinkish from the combination of blackbody radiation and absorption from Na/K/H2O, similar to brown dwarfs. #art #astronomy #space #planet #exoplanet #HotJupiter

Some renders of a ship I'm making for my scifi setting, I love nanomechanical programmable matter :)

The Great Sanctum of the Maris Cathedral of Haumea sphere. The diocese of Haumea uses a lot of flower iconography, which mirrors the blossom themes of the Tichordia Concord. #scifi #hibourverse

Day 4: Freighter Ion-powered gravel bags are easily the most numerous cargo spacecraft in human space, powering the industry of a thousand worlds. Billions of tons of asteroid material traverse the solar system on multi-decade trajectories at any given time #SST25 #Spaceshiptember2025 #hibourverse

What? You don’t obsessively draw things about your post-interstellar, industrial age, surface locked, faux Terran culture? #hibourverse #NalinaofCalphis #scifi

I held off on this for a few weeks because I assumed I hadn't done much art in 2025. Turns out I was wrong. #hibourverse #2025summaryofart #scifi

QRP to reintroduce yourself! (I’ve been here but it’s been awhile) I’m Zando. Hobbyist digital artist/writer who mostly focuses on my world building project, #hibourverse

Happy Holidays to all the hardworking spacers out there.

Artists still use Twitter?

Woah whats up guys havent been here in a while Some new things. Twitter is starting to seem more and more shitty as a platform (i also got tired of being asked to log in every time i go here) and maybe its a good idea to grow a following here

Man, looking back on what I missed on Spaceshiptember… all the ideas I had for “ruins”

[LANCER: Abundance Cascade] Following multiple nanite outbreaks in Erhuu System the Union Science Bureau TF pressed their small fleet of survey and research craft into service as ad-hoc scouting and electronic warfare vessels USBS "To Be Determined" was originally built as a radio-observatory ship
