Page 277 - 278 (line-work).
Added 2024-08-26 20:55:27 +0000 UTCHere’s the finished linework, I’m going to go all in on the colours for this one, give it a real cyberpunk vibe kinda thing, very dirty and grimy with lots of colourful lighting, but at the same time lots of dingy browns and greys.

The imperium use a multitude of methods to generate energy, but the primary method is by drawing it from a parallel universe to our own which is abundant with energy, like the ELAN and the FLUX. I dare say she has many a super weapon developed for when the eventual Tandrax-imperium war begins, but for now she is hiding her power and biding her time.

2024-08-30 09:34:18 +0000 UTCI’d imagine so 😉

2024-08-28 09:17:40 +0000 UTCMan, you're really going all out with the double page spreads and other highly detailed shots for the second volume, you love to see it :)

2024-08-27 13:07:36 +0000 UTCI figured that the Imperium has access to enough energy to move a planet in a practical manner, were do they get their energy from anyways? Do you think AM could create some sort of psionic amplifier unit and use those to interfere with the automated defense systems of a Tandrax Dyson swarm? If so, the Tandrax would be practically helpless to stop her.

2024-08-27 08:31:28 +0000 UTCYou could use the word eat, I’d say it’s more along the lines of processing and recycling. Numbering the imperium is difficult because their tools, vehicles and buildings are all living, it sort of blurs the lines a bit when trying to calculate. On a single Womb-world for example, the entire surface of a world is coated with imperium life forms, meaning that a single imperium world would easily reach 1 trillion in population. In terms of military units though, each system would most likely number in the 10s of billions. I won’t say no because that’s a really cool idea, but basically moving a planet is a completely different ballgame to moving a star. You can move a star by redirecting its light to create thrust, with a planet you’d effectively have to push a tremendously large dead mass by expending copious amounts of energy. With that being said, you could alter a planets orbital path so that it intersects with a wormhole. This could be done using a gravitational pulling using a very large object that influences the planet ever so slightly whist firing it’s thrusters in such a manner that it can keep itself from falling into the gravity well and also consistently pull the planet in one direction, like a gravity tug. The trouble would come when entering the flux on an unalterable flight path though. Perhaps large asteroids could be redirected through a wormhole, take a precisely guided flight through the flux and reenter our plane at relativistic speeds on a trajectory at the nearest Tandraxian Dyson swarm. The trouble is though, any form of celestial mobile base is an easy and slow moving target that is unable to course correct effectively enough to avoid collisions and counter attacks. An imperium leviathan can punch through a Star-engines shield, the imperium have means to fight the Tandrax, it’s just a numbers game that isn’t in their favour right now. The All-mother is doing her best not to kick the hornets nest before she’s suited and booted and ready to tango.

Ryan
2024-08-27 07:45:24 +0000 UTCYou said at one point that the Imperium don't use Relativistic projectiles because they want the biomass on a planet, does this mean they eat their enemies? Do you think there are trillions of Imperium per system as every asteroid, moon, planet and other celestial object has been turned into a habitat? Could the All-Mother turn planets into ships to serve as moving fortresses to attack Tandrax Dyson swarms? You can fit a lot of power generators on a planet that could make energy weapons powerful enough to break through shields. Are there certain things like Black holes that can penetrate a Tandrax shield without having to overcome its energy?
