Drop something red? How's aurorae on Ganymede?
Drop something red? How's aurorae on Ganymede?
Been animating in Blender since I've gotten more into the swing of it over the last year. And I wanted to make my own version of Kuat and a hyperspace effect.

I'm looking forward to it. And I presume Mando having an another Razor Crest is like someone getting a "new" 1993 F-150 because their 1992 F-150 was totaled. I do hope we see the N-1 though.

Looks like it could be a tail flash on an airplane. I'd fly that airline =)
Stylised and far-fetched animation of an orbital ring around the Earth. Such structures, if we ever build them, will in reality be invisible from such a distance.

These structures are called stromatolites. They are sedimentary formations created by successive layers of microorganisms such as cyanobacteria. Photosynthesis is starting to change the planet forever. Even today, billions of years later, fossilized remains of these unique ecosystems can be seen across the planet.

Greetings all, and I hope that the first complete rotation of our planet in this new year has been kind.
Here's an animation of the planet Mars rising above its innermost moon, Phobos, as the latter rotates.

Hereβs a airship concept I have been exploring. No generative AI, just me working in Lightwave 3D.
#airship #conceptart
Amalthea is a moon of Jupiter, the third closest to the planet at 181,365 km away (about 2.6 Jupiter radii from the centre of the planet). At just 250 km across at its widest point - its shape is not spherical - Amalthea is small, likely a captured asteroid. This image portrays a potential exploration party on the surface of Amalthea. From there, the globe of Jupiter spans an incredible 46 degrees of arc across the sky. The dark oval seen on the backdrop of Jupiter is the shadow cast by its moon Io.
For the final day, 24, of #ArtAdventCalendar, I present this illustration which I call Exploration of Amalthea. The latter is a very small moon of Jupiter in a very close orbit. Jupiter would fill half the sky seen from here!

Not sure of the viability off hand, but I've seen dynamically stabilized and suspended versions that have a stream of matter running through like a maglev at all times.
And yeah, if we've got resources for this, we've got it for a debris management and helping the surface of Earth at the same time.
Y'know, I about forgot until just now that Epstein Island had an actual name. π€
Nah, don't name one after him. I'd ask the UK if we can borrow an isolated plot on St. Helena and dump him there.
Though since he's not as grand as the last leader left there, maybe one of the slightly irradiated islands we tested nukes on would be better.
Day 21 of #ArtAdventCallendar.
Here's an animation of an orbital ring. It surrounds the Earth in a continuous loop and could serve as a platform to launch vehicles from low-Earth orbit.

This photograph shows a cloud mass Northwest of Joshua Tree, California as the last very reddened rays of the setting Sun played across it. Intriguing dynamic textures are highlighted by the grazing light along the sides and bottom. Taken December 19, 2025 with a Canon 6D.
A nice Sunset! while the sky wasn't filled with clouds, those that were there were lit by very red rays of Sunlight shining through hundreds of miles of clean air, filtered into nearly pure spectral colors.
The Rebel fleet jumping out of hyperspace over the shield gate remains one my favorite moments in Star Wars. The sound, the ships, the Rebel fanfare sting, it's just great.
For day 8 of #ArtAdventCalendar, I present this animation I did about three years ago, showing a flight through a type of space colony called a Stanford Torus.

Acolyte probably would've benefited most from a second season, maybe hit its stride and grown a Riker beard.
That said, I'd like follow ups to all four as long as it's fun and decently made.
This is an artwork of a gas-giant exoplanet that orbits so close to its star that its atmosphere is being stripped away by the star's fierce ultraviolet flux. The planet goes by the catalogue name of HD 209458b, and is also known as Osiris. Osiris orbits its star at only one-eighth of the Mercury-Sun distance, with a period of 3.5 days, and has an estimated surface temperature of around 1000 degrees Celsius. The system lies 159 light-years away in the constellation Pegasus.
#ArtAdventCalendar #SciArt Artwork of the gas-giant exoplanet HD209458b, also known as Osiris. It orbits its star in just 3.5 days at only 1/8 of the Mercury-Sun distance, and is gradually being evaporated away. The system lies 159 light-years away in the constellation Pegasus.
If he got on horseback it would just look like late-stage Henry VIII.
Illustration of the star Proxima Centauri seen from one of its planets. The landscape is rocky and barren aside from a lake. Proxima is a flare star with a powerful magnetic field, leading to the formation of aurorae in the sky. Artwork created in Blender by Mark A Garlick.
#ArtAdventCalendar #SciArt
Proxima is the nearest star to the Sun. It is a red dwarf, 1/5 the size of our Sun and 20,000 times dimmer. Here we see it seen from the surface of one of its planets. To the left one can also make out Alpha Centauri, which is a binary star with two Sun-like components.
Artwork of NASA's Mars 2020 mission. The mission consists of a 3-metre-long rover called Perseverance, and a smaller 'rotorcraft' (1.2 metres in diameter, called Ingenuity). The rover is seen against a Martian Sunset. The sunset is blue.
#ArtAdventCalendar #SciArt #blender
Another Martian dawn/dusk scene. Same blue sunset, but with Perseverance taking some of the glory.
Repost if you like this. Thank you.
A Civ 6 screenshot in which my British death robot stares down a foolish pike-and-shot that decided to mess with my papal pal.
Post-Thanksgiving slow days are great for catching up on a Civ ga- AND I TOLD YOU TO STAY AWAY FROM MY CITY STATES.
The concept looks like it has a bit more GR-75 in its DNA. I could imagine this also spinning off a Gallofree Yards ship in the future.
Even orbital shades have their own iffiness and challenges, but at least they don't dump tons of aerosols into the air on purpose.
Probably easier to disassemble or move a shade if it makes things worse than clean up the sky on top of that.
Arin, Danny, Ninja Brian and Daughter, and an assortment of not-brand candy, like Two!! Whole Ones, Big 'Ol Chad Chewing Gum, and Jolly! Ranch!. Stegosaurus and Dimetrodon are also in there. Just about in time for Thanksgiving!
The Grumps Halloween episode was very drawable, so here's a doodle of a Tintin side character, The Wizardβ’, and the Ninja family. #TheGrumps
I'd very much be up for a remaster of the first game in particular, or an all-in-one remaster for the entire series and Battle for Naboo. I like simulator-esqe games too, but there's a specific itch arcade style games scratch, like watching your toy spaceship fly around blowing Imps up.
At this rate the real life Debris Section will be the most profitable one.
It'd be nice if the DLCs went on a last minute sale first; I only have the base game.
