I Don't Believe It..

What? an update?.

There is more Bandicoot stuff on the way.   Meanwhile here is a piece I did for the Bomb Bay Tea Company, to be used at Burning Man 2008. There's some more steampunk stuff waiting to be posted as well. Hopefully the next update won't take quite as long.

Anyhow here she is, The Victoriana's Revenge - a clipper of the Bomb Bay Tea Company in full sail.

Hybrid prop/sail powered to maximise range. The engines heat the air around the hydrogen cells for extra lift, Usually only used in case of emergencies. since the crew quarters get inconveniently hot.
Angling sails and steering the beast in three dimensions is quite a challenge, so this has a task-specific version of the Babbage/Lovelace analytical engine to make the job easier. It's a "fly by pipe" system, and makes the ship surprisingly agile for such a large vessel.

The whole of the rigging can be folded along the flanks for docking and maneuvering in tight spaces, though it's not a quick process.
For defence it has a number of 20 pound guns in rotating nacelles, and the rigging can be electrified in case of Air-Kraken attack.

What if Litchtenstien played Wipeout?  Where did Damien Hurst get the idea from?  What was Picasso doing in Weston-Super-Mare?  Art/Games Image mashups.

Graphics & Anims & Bears* Oh my!
Random jottings from my pencil,  metaphorically speaking,   sort of an online portfolio.
Very much a work in progress, I'll be filling it over the next few weeks.
*No actual bears involved.

Can I build the (almost) equivalent of W@k0mz finest using cheap bits and pieces.  An unfolding tale of desire, obsession and second hand technology.

I'm a games artist and have been since 1987, (yes there really was a games industry that long ago).
You'd really think I'd know better by now.
I'll be doing a softography / bio soon _ahem_.
Meanwhile there is a link to my rather incomplete mobygames page HERE
