Pupnik!

Telescopes 👀😶

So long Bennu, thanks for the gravel.

As you may have heard, the OSIRIS-REx mission was successful and bountiful! The device lid actually got jammed in the process so now they're cutting all unnecessary operations to prevent sample loss and it’s back to earth.

hi Robin! I love your art sm! I was curious, what are your inspirations for your art style?

Hoooo boy, where do I even begin!

First off, my preference for detail stems from professional comics and manga (bonus points for series' with good practical or sci-fi designs like Nausicaa, Dorohedoro, Dragon Ball Z, Honneamise, Doctor Aphra. etc.), as the high industry standard of polish blew my mind. Whereas I gained my whole robot fixation deal from stuff like Chipspeech and browsing ArtStation.

As for artists...Jamie Hewlett, Luke Pearson, Shikishima (the one who makes the spacecraft anime girls, take one look at their work and you'll know immediately how my brain chemistry changed), Ken Done (he gave me a free poster once, core memory), Moebius and Pixoshiru come to mind. But I by far have the most vestigial habits from Andi Watson (I used to read his comics religiously as a kindergartner, he was basically my budding-off point when it came to art), which is evident in my veeeeery specific way of faking text as well as whatever the hell my simplified doodles have going on.

Opening commissions!

I don't often post art on this blog, but I'm in a bit of a bind right now and could use a bit of help. Prices are flexible and I can adapt to plenty of different art styles. Feel free to shoot me a DM if you're interested.

Reblogs are appreciated very much!

I too like bored-out-of-their-mind space probes.

Emirates Mars Mission 🛰🔴🌠

another one for the space probes collection

compton (like the space probe). she's a retired bronzesmith that lives somewhere in italy (and she knows what it's like to have a career-ending tragedy. she's fine now though)

Question

On a side note I have not drawn her in a while lol

On This Day in 1957

Happy Sputnik Day. On October 4th, 1957 the USSR launched the very first satellite into Earth orbit disjointing countless noses here in the US.

Pictured above is the backup Sputnik that was to be launched should the first attempt have failed. It can be found at the Cosmosphere in Hutchinson Kansas along with many more air and space wonders.
