PD Tarot Series

This is part of my ME:A au universe, I’m calling it ME:Singularity at the moment. The basic gist is that the Andromeda Galaxy has pre-established alien societies that are the main governing power in the Andromeda, much like the milky way, but strange and foreign by ME standards.

This is the Omaridyne, they are one of the three original founders of the Galactic Commune, the largest political and governing body in the Andromeda Galaxy. There closes earth analogs are echinoderms or sea cucumbers. The Omaridyne evolved on a moon orbiting the gas giant Oli and as a result, started space exploration significantly earlier due to the close proximity of Oli’s habitable moons. They would later have first contact with the Tyreem and found the Galactic Commune. 

The Omaridyne are the only species in the galaxy that have three biological sexes. These are male, female, and namlee. Their third sex, the namlee allows them to produce hybrid offspring with other levo-amino acid species. In addition, Omaridyne also changes their sex based on the availability of suitable mates. 

There’s a lot more about the Omaridyne but I’ll continue it in a later post

Decided to try coloring this in, I'm still learning how to use markers. Ever since my old graphics tablet died, I've been really debating whether or not i should buy a new one or just stick with doing things traditionally. (I'm not a big fan of pen tablets for drawing ) On one hand, messing around with markers and color pencils is really therapeutic for me right now, but I always feel apprehensive about doing things traditionaly, I guess I'd call it FORO (fear of running out). Its dumb i know, they're kinda meant to be used but still.

Either way, i think it came out okay.

More shading practice , this time a dragon rider. I haven’t drawn a dragon in quite some time.

aliens, I made a D&D character which was very much not human and needed some weird wild shape forms

a little fan art lagi from panzer dragoon orta

an art trade for @gt-ridel they asked for an axolotl dragon and I immediately thought of olms, so an olm wizard.

Imsee Recorder with adopted child

I've been thinking a little bit how the Imsee relate to their intelligent constructs. I'm a bit hesitant to call them robots since I think its a very human-centric term that probably doesn't translate well to other sophonts. The idea of the mechanical servant, just wasn't really prevalent among their kind and they had more of a tendency to view technology as either tools or direct extensions of themselves. Mix that in with their propensity to cybernetics and you essentially have a species who finds the concept of an intelligent machine kind of absurd.

So why do they have sapient robots anyway? , you may ask. Well Imsee have incredibly long and well detailed memories and due to the nature of their language can communicate amongst their kind much quicker and in far greater detail than humans. And so, for a long time, most information was retained though oral traditions and the death of a storyteller or a record keeper was a pretty big deal. For the Imsee, intelligent machines were not workers but instead a unique way retain life past death. Its kind of a soma situation, recorders retain the memories of Imsee who've pasted on, and are seen as an aspect of the individual which created them.

There's just something appealing about motorcycles with legs

Just my current (wip). I'm working on another short comic, its only going to be a few pages, but hopefully you'll find it interesting. I'll post the whole comic once I'm finished drawing it
