The RB-4 was the first defensive space mine deployed by the deWulf Navy. Initially researched at the tail end of the First Contact War, the mine never saw widespread use either during the First Contact War or the following Binary War. Imperial Autonetics, the original manufacturer, bet on it becoming a standard fixture of the… Continue reading Sketches – Bomb Pumped Laser Bouy

Sketches – Sintillan AA Tank
This was a weird hybrid design between the previous Sintillan heavy tank, along with the real like KV-2 (which provided the overall turret lines) and the Shilka, which provided the role as well as the quad barrels. There's actually a model of something that looks remarkably similar to this for some Weird War 2 game,… Continue reading Sketches – Sintillan AA Tank
Sketches – Sintillan Heavy Tank
I'll fully admit that this design is a truly terrible tank, with just a gigantic slab-sided tank that just rolled in and shrugged off all kinds of firepower. Notionally, these things are at best comically designed, way too tall and with side near-sponson weapons that probably aren't that effective at dealing with other, more realistic… Continue reading Sketches – Sintillan Heavy Tank
Sketches – Sintillan Shipyard
Another really old sketch, I can't remember what inspired the idea of having an octagonal shipyard, but it was one that very quickly grew on me. The original idea was that each side would have another shipyard slip, but quickly enough it became apparent that on the inside there could really only be two good… Continue reading Sketches – Sintillan Shipyard
Sketches – Sintillan Beria Destroyer
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
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
