Another cache of mental meanderings. Above, a very happy sheep.
What if Stephen King had misspelled, and we ended up with "Pet Seminary"?
A short "sneak peek" --what does this screen capture from the (in)famous "Information Awareness & Cybersecurity" online class have to do with upcoming episodes? Well, the character from the online course, known throughout many military and civili...

Characters and vehicles have been designed, but I've also used existing ideas that were re-purposed. The machine above is an AT-ACA, or All-Terrain Armored Tactical Assault transporter, with a Scout Walker head placed on the older AT-TE body, and a f...

This isn't so much just "Fan Art" about someone else's creation as it is fan art in support of an ongoing story that I am an active participant in.
