Pulp Novels - Tumblr Posts
Who thinks the world of Lies of P would make a good steampunk pulp series and P would make a good pulp hero like Zorro, The Rocketeer, or Flash Gordon with Alice being his love interest?
My pixel version of Doc Savage - The Man of Bronze. Will work a background for it and possibly give some more polish on the character too.
Doc Savage - The Man of Bronze. Based this one on the 1975 movie poster.
An Unlikely Pair: The Colossus and the Scout
Derros grumbled and Nastrea chuckled at him. They were both sweating in the sweltering, primeval heat. Insects, some as fat as a charcoal-colored chitin finger, orbited about their exposed skin along their heavy scaly armor. Angry sunlight stabbed between colossal tree trunks like glassy shards, wind tussling richly enshrouded trunks covered in mossy plated growths.
“Derros”, said Nastrea with a smirking laugh on her lips, “you seem like a hatchling, you know that? Pale as a weaver-worm freshly spurted from its-”
Derros interrupted. Irritated at the tall black woman, and also trying to hide his own laughter behind an unhappy expression.
“Would you hush up, you talkative squaking menace? I’m not sure what’ll drop me first: the predators, the parasites, the heat, or goddamn you!” Much to the young mans dismay: Nastrea burst further into laughter and clutched her stomach, wheezing in syrupy humid heat.
Derros sighed, wiped his brow. The young man was tall, but not as tall as his companion, and pale skinned. His lengthy curly hair was unruly. His armor was light and simple, fit for a scout to traverse the steaming jungle with ease. Nastrea on the other hand was tall and crowned by midnight dark hair, with vigilantly speckled green eyes. The woman’s armor was heavy, but organic with slick curves and tactical gear: ammunition cartridges, communications maintainers, chemical disperers, even a small active reactor that could be used for a rapid deployment vehicle or long term campsite. The pair trudged through the scraping forest floor.
As they walked, little did they know: they were being hunted. For deep in the shadows of the murky jungle, predators are abound always..
