Damn 😑 Two experienced and talented artists from the Star Trek Online team... I've always liked Hector Ortiz's artworks.

If you're looking to hire an amazing concept artist or VFX artist, these guys know how to work quickly, solve problems, and stay faithful to an established look while also pushing quality. Reach out to me and I can get you in touch.

Hector was an inspiration to me for long before I got to work alongside him, it sucks to see him go from the team, and I will deeply miss having his expertise on hand, though I'm excited to see where his incredible talents take him next. 🫡🖖

More work done on the Hegh'Ta, but progress has stagnated a bit due to some factors which eeally is limiting me in really detailing the heck out of this #StarTrek #StarTrekOnline #Blender3D #Spaceship #Klingon #WIP

If I had a nickel for every time the canonicity of a Star Trek Online ship has been announced by an New York Comic Con trailer for a Star Trek TV show, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's fucking awesome that it's happened twice. 🧵

Creative Market, Adobe Stock, and every stock site should prohibit the resale of AI-generated imagery and ban people who are caught trying to sell AI-generated assets. If I wanted to use that kind of garbage in my project I would make it myself. Their ONLY advantage is a guarantee of skilled labor.

tune into my co-working livestreams for motivational speeches about how no matter what you are working on, the fact that you are doing it yourself makes you categorically sexier and smarter than anyone who is using AI to do what you do

Props to @pundus.art and @scorpiondesign.bsky.social who did a lot of work to get this Gladius remaster in good shape. With this remaster, all of the variants of the Saber family are now up to our quality bar. This makes the Saber family the fourth fully-remastered family of starships complete!

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!

Whenever I need a creative break to help me get the focus I need to work on bigger models, I make an emotional support starship

so that new sto episode huh

I still can't believe a model of mine made it into STO

I had to make a few changes for its arrival in STO, but it should be entirely faithful to Andy's work. You can see more of his work here: bsky.app/profile/andy...

Been playing Silksong (like everyone has, of course) gotta say, I'm really impressed with how Hornet feels to play. Her move set feels natural and complete from the start, where the Knight's only feels right when you get the dash and wall jump.

The Last Starship is Starting It's Voyage! These final in-game models of the U.S.S Omega are beautiful. 😮‍💨 Keep an eye on Star Trek Online's website for more details. See more here: ow.ly/yGT350WVV8e #StarTrek: #TheLastStarship #1 is at LCS by 9/24! #StarTrekTheLastStarship

We've done it again! I finally figured out some ideas to turn the Venator from #StarWars into a #StarTrek ship and once again commissioned @ncc-60205.bsky.social to bring it to life, who, as usual, did an amazing job!

Using AI for concept art is like: “I want to come up with something no-one has ever seen before, so I’m going to use this machine that can only regurgitate existing stuff after blending it into a lumpy paste.”

The Countdown is starting! Today we are on stream with @borticuscryptic.bsky.social , @pundus.art and @scorpiondesign.bsky.social to show off an upcoming STO ship EARLY! Join us at 11am PT and cheer on Scorp during their first STO stream.

Go Fast! I hope you all enjoy the #StarTrek Ships of the Line Calendar 2026! It is an absolute honor to have become a published artist!

AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.

One of the obvious changes was suggested by @thomasthecat.bsky.social and had a hand by @scorpiondesign.bsky.social - the front of the two pontoon-esque areas has gotten more detailing! Some refinement was done to the sides of the deflector dish as well :)

Do any tech artists that follow me have an idea how to get this 'overblown saturated blue bloom' look in Blender? (Or an easy way to do it in Photoshop)

Ok! I am clear to talk about the exciting news from the other day. I just got a temporary gig to take over as a Community Manager for the next two weeks. The company I'll be working for is REALLY exciting. It's - well, maybe I'll let Matt take this. Where will I be working?

@highrollersdnd.bsky.social Altheya fanart. The sea dudes attack from the deep during the party's drama sesssion! Avast! About half a day in Painter 2023. #HighRollersDND #CrabsArePeople

Happy to show some of the new animated key art I did for the lovely folks @highrollersdnd.bsky.social! With work not allowing much time for fan-art, I'm so glad I still get a chance to make art for such an amazing game & lovely community! 💜

Hey #StarTrekOnline captains! To continue my ship-posting, here's the final model of the TOS-era Proxima-Class, now in the Timless Legacy Starship Bundle! Originally by Rick Knox for Star Trek: Legacy, it was updated and brought to STO by Scorp!

Wanted to share this image of all the visual variants included in the Timeless Legacy starship bundle that went live in STO last week. Tobias Richter, @ramonmatas.bsky.social, @pundus.art, @scorpiondesign.bsky.social, and Hector Ortiz did fantastic work on these ships.

Going live now, the Pollux Class from the new Timeless Legacy Bundle!!! youtu.be/Sz9eAGkzuXE?... #StarTrekOnline
