This was the first sketch for the Sintillan Navy, and this established the overall design concept for their spaceships. I'm actually really happy with how well it worked out overall, as I found that the whole two outriggers concept scaled up really nicely with larger hulls, and also offered a nice way to do… Continue reading Sketches – Sintillan Beria Destroyer

Sketches – Sintillan Craft
As part of my initial sketches that followed along with the Rassler and Stuka aircraft for the deWulf, the Sintillans got some attention as well. I honestly can't remember what gave me the inspiration for either one of these ships, though the Partizan gunship on the left has a few common design cues from the… Continue reading Sketches – Sintillan Craft

Kreutz University Department of Astrophysics "Professor Ernst, I think we have an issue?" "Yes, what is it?" "I was reviewing the latest pull from the G2R2 Array and, well, we have a problem." "I'm guessing that this is a more substantial issue. You wouldn't be bothering me if it was just a synchronization issue." "KR… Continue reading Existential Dread

Sketches – deWulf Stuka Attack Fighter
I think this was the first non-spaceship I sketched out for the deWulf universe. It's inspirations are pretty clear, as the name attests. It's dated far back enough that it's hearkening to when the deWulf were a lot more of a "Germans in space" thing than they are now, and I confess the name is… Continue reading Sketches – deWulf Stuka Attack Fighter
Sketches – deWulf Rassler Fighter
Another early sketch of mine, this one was part of the initial First Contact war that had deWulf and Sintillan forces fighting over a deWulf Colony. Given the state of technology, I imagined something akin to Battletech Aerofighters as the kind of combat aircraft that would be in service. A bit bigger, heavier, and without… Continue reading Sketches – deWulf Rassler Fighter
Constellation
As the number of star systems in the deWulf Corporate Democracy increased, it slowly became apparent that an additional administration layer was required between the individual planets and the Ruling Council and their various administrative bodies. With over ten colonized systems and almost triple that in claimed but officially uninhabited systems, increase in routine manners… Continue reading Constellation

For the Duration: Initially launched as a comedy show set on the fictional deWulf warship dWS Michael Diel, a Hawking-class Light Cruiser, For the Duration morphed into a show that both helped portray the sobering aspects of space warfare while remaining lighthearted. Each episode begins with a steady crawl of the ship sailing by; if… Continue reading Broadcast

Dear PackMaster Brand, I have been, until recently, a proud member of the production group at the Never Depot on Sif. As part of the initial development team on the molecular assembler technology, I was proud to not only have my thesis project accepted, but given enough funding to see it become the mature technology… Continue reading Aback
