Cosmonaut - Tumblr Posts

The Sun rises over Earth in a postcard illustrated by Soviet cosmonaut Alexei Leonov, recalling the 1965 mission when he became the first human to walk in space.

The Soviets kicked our ass in the space race its so dope "Oh you went to the Moon, yeah thats cool I guess, we got pictures of fucking Venus, you ever been to Venus? No the fuck you did not."

That one time I took the alien to the Moscow Cosmonautics museum...

Back in December, I set a goal: to draw Byron at least once a month.

I didn't have any ideas, but later I decided to time the art to coincide with Cosmonautics Day. So here's Byron in a makeshift black spacesuit.

Ideally, He should have the flag of the United States, where He lives, on His shoulder. However, I made a different flag and these colors symbolize Raven and Zephyr from the last post. It is ironic that the colors of this flag are similar to the Russian flag, where Cosmonautics Day is celebrated. But that's just a coincidence.

And I also wanted to draw Byron in big clothes.

in the future the whole “astronaut/cosmonaut" distinction will be one of those little linguistic oddities that show up on trivia cards and on 22nd century family game night everyone will have a good hearty chuckle at the silly names we used to call moonquistadors

The crew of the space shuttle Challenger smile as they board the ship, planning another mission into orbit.

Wouagho- the silly Cosmonaut from SWINGo!!

I don't know why I love this game, it's just.. YOU USE THE FUNNY STICKY HAND TOYS AS THE MAIN MECHANIC FOR MOVING!!

Careful where you prick your finger. Especially if you are a cosmonaut in a spacestation, surrounded by fungus of alien origin.
