Added 2022-03-15 13:00:07 +0000 UTC

Many of you have been asking questions like, "When will you announce what the Martian project is?" and "'what even IS a space opera?", and "do you ever sleep? ...or bathe?"

Well tomorrow you will find out the answer to those questions, and to the big one that has been following us since we started making monsters here on Patreon. What is this project ultimately for?...

WHAT WILL IT BE???

Well, the time is finally upon us. Tomorrow, we lay our *cards* on the table and reveal the diabolical purpose and plan for the Martian of the Month.

Until then, I leave with you with some of my early development work into the scenes and backgrounds for the series. A lot of these will feel stylistically looser than my previous work. And that is because we delving into a concept art style that is more reminiscent of the highly efficient 80's pen and marker look. (Brush set for that coming tomorrow!) It is something I have been having a lot of fun with while developing this. I do plan to also do my usual highly lush paintings as well, once we have nailed down the major scenes we need. For now, I am invested in trying to develop a style that can get a full color scene put together in under an hour.

Can't wait for the reveal. We are doing something really fun and highly ambitious. I am finally chasing down something that has been on my bucket list for decades. Stay tuned....
