More Ogre stuff. Not sure what the scale are, since it varies a bit between drawings, minis and 3D models... as do the designs of the side silhouettes and drawings. Apparently there are ninjas in the game. I imagine they're only useful for taking out other infantry, and maybe some kind of OGRE sabotage with sticky bombs?
Added a Stridsvagn 103 GEV for fun. Rifle is from a single drawing, as is the antennas, Winchell Chung did much of the original art back in the '70s.

@nyrath @androidarts Gotta love some.... GEV

@iamgerardthomas@mastodon.social avatar

@nyrath @androidarts @fnordius Would have to agree. From GEV it started to get too granular and became 'another' war game. Ogre was perfect as it was snd represented the madness perfectly

    @nyrath @evildrganymede Does the tome have the art from the comics like the reviews say? It seems to be quite heavily illustrated by all accounts

    It’s interesting just how many of my followers have ‘dormant’ accounts. Many came over in the artist exodus from TwiX, stayed a bit and then went elsewhere. It’s a shame, as there are many great folks in that list. I know a lot are active on that baffling place , so why have they left the ? What was the lack of appeal?

    @androidarts Have to ask what's with all the Ogre lurve? I hardly see anyone talking about these days.

    I modelled a thing to test out a design idea thing. The thing works. Yay for things!

    Watched it for the umpteenth time last night. 42 years old and as long as you're not watching the original theatrical release, it's a near perfect film. A pure masterclass.

    I know the clickthrough rate from SM to websites is horridly low, BUT!.... My collection of very brief world building words and equally brief PostIt Notes doodles is growing.

    If you're at all interested in what the flavour of Sub Orbital Machine is all about, you can check out the collection here:

    Two sides of the same coin... 3D photomontage and 3D single object renders; probably a reflection of my past professional use of the medium as a industrial designer and having done technical archiviz for many years. I am going to be using both of these styles in Sub Orbital Machine to do things I can't express with drawing in ink and graphite.

    Busy with work, school holidays and doing rough development sketch work that's not for posting 😞 So here's something I like, done with ... Backyard hillybilly Mecha

    Jan Kaplický Drawings. Probably the most important book I've bought in many years. My father is an architect & I have vivid memories of an arch. magazine with Kaplický's concepts in it. They, along with Chris Foss's '21st Century Foss' set me on a trajectory I am still travelling. Finding this book over the weekend makes it feel like everything of the past year has fallen into place.

    Just a little reminder… I love and but I don't want to rely on the , as we’ve all seen what can happen when you lease expect it. If you really like what I do and want to be kept in the loop, I have a newsletter that I publish very occasionally that I will be putting more time into over the next few months:
