And to go along with the Linford Island renders, I've made a video on my own channel covering how I made some key features of it in Blender. It's very jank, but slightly less jank than an older model I made! youtu.be/smKNeUaIqkk

I've updated my fanart of the Linford Island from #TheSojourn a little bit, so here's some big new 4k renders of it in all its glory!

Wormholes are really friggin weird, but they're one of the only ways that physics allows us to travel faster-than-light by not doing that at all. Check out this weeks Spacedock video to find out how those conflicting statements go together! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Alqe...

Of all the cool and varied spaceships in Star Trek, one in particular just kept showing up seemingly just to be destroyed: the Miranda class. But is that actually true, or is its reputation undeserved? We checked every Miranda to see, on this weeks Spacedock: www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2s2...

Earlier this year we looked at surface to space warfare, an absolute staple of sci-fi, but is it actually possible to make a gun that can reach all the way up there? Check out this weeks Spacedock to find out (the answer is yes with caveats). www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCoW...

Having a fresh timeline is always a bit intimidating but I'm happy to finally be at this stage for my next video, especially after being so unhappy with older versions of the script! No idea how long this will take, but can you see what its gonna be about?

As promised on last weeks video, this week we're on Spacedock we're taking a look at what has become a bit of a staple of current sci-fi: electromagnetic guns. But when and why did they get so common? www.youtube.com/watch?v=8u1Z...

Repost please!Hello there! I am looking for new job opportunities in #gamedev as a concept artist, i can draw any #scifi things you need(spaceships, vehicles, mechs, weapons, etc). Also, i am open to commissions as well, if you need anything from the list above, pm me here or via [email protected]

#StarTrek fiends I need your help! What era would ships using registry numbers around 32000 be from? My guess is this is lost era or early TNG but I'm not sure 😭

It feels like hard sci-fi is everywhere these days, but did you know that people back in the 1930s were talking about space combat in exactly the same way as we do now?! www.youtube.com/watch?v=agWW...

Always fun seeing a rocket land! Looks like #NewGlenn also has explosive nailguns in the legs that fired after landing to secure it to the deck, pretty wild!

On this weeks Spacedock we're looking at the patterns that are used (and often ignored) when naming ships, of both the wet and dry varieties. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MaXo...

The team over at Wētā Workshop have released some new Alien: Earth concept art depicting the series new iteration of the Xenomorph! #AlienEarth #WetaWorkshop #Xenomorph #NoahHawley #Alien

Oh to live in a big musty house atop a hill overlooking a city.

Who wants to tell them?

From Frankensteins creature to Graboids from Tremors, we're looking at sci-fi monsters on Spacedock, and having a think over what makes them more conceptually interesting than paranormal ones. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bcz...

That's my BIS Daedalus model as rendered by @grahamtg.bsky.social

It's Spacedock time! This week we're looking at a selection of realistic interstellar designs to see what makes them tick. Featuring some cool art by @zandoarts.bsky.social, @problemecium.bsky.social and @retrovisorrr.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJSO...

We're back with the goofy-ass almost clickbait future weapon tech for this weeks Spacedock video! This time its nuclear lasers, with thanks to @toughsf.bsky.social for his blog post on the topic (linked in the following message). www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bl2...

Spacecraft docking is seen pretty frequently in sci-fi but its kinda treated as this easy to do thing. In reality its actually pretty complicated and interesting, watch this weeks video to see how! www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WvS...

I'm now completely happy with the effect, all the bugs, errors and jumpiness are gone! I'm 100% on this, no weirdness, no oddness, everything works from all the angles I'd ever want. All done in camera!

Time for another Spacedock video inspired by Helldivers 2, this time it was the mechs that got me thinking about the incredibly specific niche that is infantry support vehicles. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeT7...

X-wings are one of the most famous designs in sci-fi, partly due to their cool splitting wings. But why do they do that? That is what this weeks Spacedock video examines. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZJE...

This weeks Spacedock video is about the way design language can be used to define a setting, or at least to place something within it. But its not perfect because like so many other things, it depends! www.youtube.com/watch?v=KN6I...

God I love the adorable little monsters in Alien: Earth. They're so delightfully disgusting.

For this weeks Spacedock video I went and watched Knights of Sidonia and enjoyed it! Yeah its a bit shallow and has some very annoying anime bullshit, but the visuals and great action more than made up for that. Watch the video for more: www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2vU...

I'm consistently impressed by the way Alien: Earth both does its own thing but also builds upon the rest of the franchise. It's fascinating.

Have you seen their Gamescom booth? (video from the discord)

On today's Spacedock video we look at the similarities between the colonisation going on in Avatar, and compare it to how real-life billionaires are setting up self-sufficient bunkers to escape societal collapse. Y'know, that they are gonna be the cause of. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fg_6...

The Big E. Model by Prologic9 rendered in #Lightwave3d #StarTrekArt

I get it now

We got a lil' bit ratfucked by copyright bots on this since Dune is apparently haram, but here's a video about how god damn well thought out the shields are! www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLi2...

The marketing for Avatar 3 is going nuts this year

There is something deeply wrong with tech bros

The first three episodes of the thing I've worked on for the last... [counts on fingers] SEVEN years is now available for my most favourite price... ... FREE! :D

Listen to the first three episodes of #TheSojourn Audio Drama in their entirety for free, now on YouTube. youtu.be/z9lZ3RbWRXA #SciFi #AudioDrama #ScienceFiction

It does indeed suck. Watch this video to find out why, and what that pretty lookin' space carrier (with art by the wonderful @jonka.bsky.social) has to do with it!

To celebrate the 56th anniversary of the first Manned Lunar Landing, we're releasing our next animation : - The Lunar War - "Concordia" youtu.be/irkB-iMGsOQ

We've got a bonus compilation video on Spacedock today, combining together our various videos on firearms and infantry combat for you to enjoy all at once. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjAe...

People seemed to like this edit I mage from yesterdays Spacedock video! The music is a slowed down version of inaudio.org/track/electr...

Back to our normal spaceship stuff on Spacedock this week as we examine one of the most pervasive types of spaceship in sci-fi: the flying gun. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZEb...

Recently a fusion space tug concept was unveiled by Pulsar Fusion, which was met with lots of excitement from the press. But I'm not sure that it holds up, at least in its current state. Check out this weeks video on Spacedock to find out more: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJy6...

Hey y'all its #portfolioday I am a dark fantasy illustrator, writer and publisher! My work focuses on dark medieval, gothic and cosmic themes! I have illustrated and published my own DnD One-Shots and have done professional work for the famous Divorced Dads TCG! Please have a look!

Holy shit this episode was amazing! I didn't really know what I expected but this somehow was better than that and in very interesting ways.

Which stage of capitalism does launching a satellite with an "AI" on board to design a shoe in space come under?

Any Becky Chambers fans around here? This coming Saturday's #TheSojourn episode is my little tribute to her wholesome, minimum-drama, slice-of-life style of fiction. Enjoy it while it lasts folks cos its as close to a beach episode as we're ever getting 😂

On this weeks Spacedock video we have a look at why spaceships often tend to end up sinking, even though they are up in space. Yes it looks cool, but there's also a physics reason why it might happen! www.youtube.com/watch?v=4W0s...

#TheSojourn S02E04 Hitting Patreon this Sat. Very proud of this one. Its our longest ep yet at nearly 57 minutes, and in structure and style its very much like an episode of Sharpe or Hornblower. Also has one of our best SFX setpieces ever imo. Join the listening party on our Discord if you can!

We've covered lots of spacecraft bits on Spacedock, but what do you actually attach them to? Find out on this weeks video covering spacecraft structures: www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyHb...
