Some old F&C doodles and humanisations of mine that I legitimately almost forgot existed until now (awesome).
I'm such a huge fan of the pantheon in this show <3

Who's into this kind of thing? @robinwaaaaa and @gcu-sovereign maybe?
My mars gremlins,,,
OC paintings so far! They are all based on something space related!
Left to Right:
James Webb (JWST), Trappist (TRAPPIST-1), Spitzer (SST), Chandra (CXO), Discovery (Space Shuttle), Habex (HabEx concept), Lynx (Lynx concept) and Luvoir (LUVOIR concept)
I have more ocs I plan to paint! Hubble and Origins are on the top of my list right now. Hope some of you might be interested to see them!
I also like talking about my ocs so if you want, you can ask me questions about them, or talk to me about anything space related because I love space!
So sorry to @mendely for kidnapping his Webb for this (Not really actually devil emoji)
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)
So, not chipspeech actually but I wanted to show followers my little computer guys. I love personifying old mainframes and I have like 200 I want to do I just never get around to it.
The Double Asteroid Redirection Test— launched November 24 2021, impacted September 26 2022— was NASA’s first planetary defense mission. Designed to test and demonstrate our ability to deflect near-earth asteroids via kinetic impact, the mission was a (smashing) success…
Second batch of Webb sketches~ Super proud of the christmas tree one
They invented telescopes that can slayyy
Fun facts: Webb's outfit is inspired by U.S. navy uniforms because she's kinda shaped like a boat and a lot of engineers describe her using nautical terms. Hubble's glasses are prescription (corrective optics) but Webb's are just for fashion. Also Hubble's a Raiders fan cause he was assembled in the bay area and the Raiders were in Oakland at that time. They fight like a married couple.
so i started designing spacecraft personifications with a historical twist
(galileo, wmap and jwst respectively)
mainly because i am a historical fashion bitch and mainly because the duchy of nasa is a hilarious concept
lowdown for each of them:
- galileo: retired mathematician from court of nasa, does hunting in his free time
- wmap: former miniature painter/metalworker, moved on to doing portraiture and shooting the shit with other older people
- jwst: currently employed at the court of nasa as painter for an ungodly sum of money
having ideas for new horizons being a mystic nun who sees new planets in her visions and observes the stars from her cell but haven’t designed that yet
In my micolash era again. Look at this freakazoid (Parker Solar Probe)
I’m thinking about how Hubble and JWST technically live-streamed DART’s death 💀 I am imagining them voicing over the footage like “YOOO BRO GOT REKTD GG” 💥💥💥
Number of spacecraft I have drawn doing the blehhh... pose: 2
Sorta a collaboration wit @helljunker lolllll
chandra (like the space probe). diplomat sent to the duchy of nasa and overall very done with galileo's, kepler's and willemina's shenanigans (they keep trying to be nosy about the negotiations)
clothes r based off of some 1550s illustrations of courtiers n all around rich guys (and in the case of hair and jewellry, 1590s women) from the mughal period
Oh I forgot to post this. LISA is a proposed gravitational wave detector whos component spacecrafts will be located 2.5 million kilometers from each other, orbiting around the sun. Pretty cool. Here's a wikipedia article about it if you are interested.
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.
Minotaur I/II rockets peel themselves like bananas during launch and if that ain't the most whimsical shit
the reason they do this is because the first stage is based on the Minuteman missile, which was designed to launch from a climate controlled missile silo. when your launch pad is out in the open in the hot, humid Virginia air, the rocket can actually get damaged by heat and condensation.
the people developing it into an orbital launch vehicle wanted to change as little as possible from the original missile to lower production costs, so instead of changing the structure of the booster or whatever, they just wrapped it in an insulating blanket. to save weight, the blanket gets peeled off by cables during launch. it's actually quite a clever solution!
they did not have to make that shit banana yellow though that ones definitely on purpose. looney tunes ass rocket.
Soviet space dogs project! U can print your own and fold it like a zine too :-)
Fun fact!!! Zib’s name is initials which stand for (roughly) “replacement for missing Bolik” as Bolik ran away a day before his flight. Had to guesstimate on a few of these bc it’s very hard to find pics of the dogs with their corresponding names.
Three teams of talented artists came together in The Black Hole for our 4th anniversary on August 10, 2023 - and created some deliciously cosmic pieces to celebrate! Characters featured are our mascots, Terri (they/them), Black Hole-chan (she/her) and Tsuki (she/they).

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