It's amazing what you can get done when you're stuck in a meeting! This sketch actually is skipping a bit of the queue; I did this one in the fall while on a long conference call, and I wanted to get it out sooner than later, so here it is. One note, technically I made… Continue reading Sketches – Fenris Local Space

A to Z – Last Call!
Like I mentioned early last month, I'm taking part the 2020 Blogging from A to Z April Challenge. With barely a week to go, you've only got a little time left to get your own topic suggestions in! On Sunday, March 29 I'll be shutting down the submission form, doing a dump of all of… Continue reading A to Z – Last Call!
We Will Accept Nothing Less…
Office of the Chief Minister Chair of the Corporate Council Lowell City, Fenris Capital of the deWulf Corporate Democracy "What do we want?" "Victory!" "When do we want it?" "Now!" The crowd seethed through the square, a roiling ocean of Fenren and Sintillan citizens that filled the square to bursting and beyond. Banners and placards… Continue reading We Will Accept Nothing Less…
Sketches – deWulf light cruiser concepts
I'll be honest, it took me a while to find a light cruiser hull that I was happy with for the deWulf. Heavy cruisers were easy enough, they basically had bulked up destroyer lines. Even larger hulls had the Elder God concept to build on (as shaky as it was), but the light cruiser always… Continue reading Sketches – deWulf light cruiser concepts

In a shocking development, The Krak University States are in turmoil with the revelation that… Continue reading News Feed: Critical Mass
Sketches – deWulf Hauptmann Class Destroyer
Another one of the initial design sketches for deWulf ships, this one helped work out a lot of the more specific concepts on both the deWulf open jaw nose. It also spent a bit more time looking at the nose in a few different ways to apply some detail work like where the hull number… Continue reading Sketches – deWulf Hauptmann Class Destroyer
Sketches – deWulf Director Class Cruiser
A later sketch of mine, this one expanded a lot on the concepts that earlier hulls like the Slingshot and Elder God did. The main additions to the basic hullform are the larger wings on either side of a much-enlarged main hull. She also maintains the same hull superstructure as smaller designs. This was still… Continue reading Sketches – deWulf Director Class Cruiser
February Sitrep
February's been a pretty productive month for the most part, though in a few spots it's been less than ideal. But that's how progress goes after all. It's not always uniform OR as fast as you'd like. But given how February has been overall (I'd like to take a moment to thank China for not… Continue reading February Sitrep

RINS King Feranza Cloak Nebula deWulf Corporate Democracy The Ibizan expeditionary force cut through the thin nebula like a pod of blunt whales, their bulbous hulls mirrored by their drive fields as they cruised through the last system before Dave's World and their assigned rally point. The earlier systems had been almost routine, passing the… Continue reading I Have Full Confidence…
Sketches – deWulf Zweireiner Class Freighter
The genesis for pretty much all of the freighter designs I've done, the deWulf Zwei is the standard freighter design used by the deWulf since they reached spaceflight. There isn't a lot to really say about this design concept overall. She dispenses with the open jaw design that is inherent with most deWulf ships (pretty… Continue reading Sketches – deWulf Zweireiner Class Freighter
