Rocket Science - Tumblr Posts
won't be able to post any art for my birthday tomorrow, but just imagine I posted this really cool helmet party/rocket science art that I totally had/have time to finish during my birthday. yeehaw fellas đź‘Ť (I WILL POST IT ONCE ITS FINISHED THOUGH!!!)
Alright, only gonna do this for THREE DAYS, so get em in quick!
SEND ME REQUESTS AND I'LL DRAW EM!
Whether that be ships, regular ol' friendships, or a character on their own... Send em in!
Although there will be ground rules.
RULES:
No NSFW requests (they can be slightly suggestive but I am not comfortable with very suggestive art or flat out NSFW at the moment)
Nothing overly complex unless it seems do-able
No asking for skin tone swapping (ex: asking for a whitewashed demo or vice versa for someone else)
Okay that's it for rules. I don't have many so make the most of it while it lasts. I also still have asks in my inbox, and I will get to those (sorry for taking so long, I really need to work on making my art style consistent)
Now for the ships!
Ships I WILL draw:
Sniperscout/Speeding Bullet/Quick Shot
Heavymedic/Red Oktoberfest
Engiespy/Practical Espionage/Napoleon Complex
Engiesolly/Helmet Party/Rocket Science
Demosolly/Boots N' Bombs
Spyma/Sex Bomb
Most poly ships
Ships I WON'T draw:
Spyscout
Mediscout
Sniperspy/Bloody Suit
Any ship with Pyro unless it's a broship
Any other ship is fair game and I'll draw them if I feel comfortable drawing them!
If my art style looks weird or out of place, that's because I'm STILL (yikes) working on figuring out an art style I'm comfortable with, so it will definitely change up!
And one other thing, I'm avoiding anonymous requests because I don't want to be flooded with fetish-fishing, suspicious links, fishy requests and scammers. I apologize if this makes you uncomfortable, but I'm not putting myself on blast here.
This is a judgement free zone, so don't be shy with your requests!!
I'll be keeping asks open until JUNE 28TH (or if I get an overwhelming amount of requests) SO GET GOING!
(please ignore the overwhelming amount of tags LMFAO)

(p.s. if I really REALLY like your request, I may turn it into a personal project and make a oneshot based on it ;p)
Well, Elon had to say it. Boys will be boys and humor is still humor and everybody knows it’s a joke except the ever-offended. TITS, the greatest institute that never will be? Or will may it just happen... Unlike Elon, I am a bit jobless as an Industrial Designer / Product Designer at the moment. I dug up an old love for 2d design and witt. Whilst a 1000+ TITS shirts and merch can be found elsewhere in copy>paste templated T-shirt designs on the net, this isn’t one of them - I made my own and so is all my other work on #redbubble. Any metrologists find this? There’s a shirt for you too. I am still working out how to go about the intricacies of the interface and getting alpha channels right, so if something needs change before you’d consider buying, let me know. Whilst I have in no way got a big following, it’d be interesting to see if someone with a big following might thieve my humoristic interpretations of current LOL events.
I love this ship so much

Watching the rocket ship on the pier 🚀
I found the thing to dunk on Elon for regarding the rocket launch.
A lot of experts in the rocket community were questioning Elon's decision not to create a flame diverter.
For those unaware, huge rockets like this usually have giant trenches underneath to channel the flames, exhaust, and debris safely.
NASA's Kennedy Space Center has a flame trench that is 571 feet long, 58 feet wide, and 42 feet high and is built with concrete and refractory brick and bisects the pad at ground level.
But giant trenches are costly and can make working on the rocket on the launch pad inconvenient. So Elon wanted to try forgoing the flame diverter even though he was launching the largest rocket ever built with the most exhaust ever output.
And now he covered an entire town with a layer of rocket dust.
Exploding the rocket was normal and expected.
Not giving a shit about the town around the launch site... fucking infuriating.
The key problem with this notion is that, unless you're using reactionless/"gravitic" thrust (a.k.a. Bullshit Space Magic), you need a lot of volume for propellant because there is no medium to push against in space. That's why human-carrying spacecraft are mostly propellant: it takes a LOT of reaction mass to get around up there.
Even with FTL handwavium and a high-efficiency fusion drive, you still need plenty of compressed gas for maneuvering and a fair bit of volume for reaction mass to get you and your vessel to match velocity with your target. Remember: EVERYTHING in space is moving, all the time. Our closest star, Alpha Centauri, is moving at almost 50 kilometers per second relative to our sun! Our second-closest star, Barnard, is moving more than TWICE that fast. Saturn V, one of the most powerful rockets ever built, had a total Δv of about 18 km/s, and half of that was expended just getting from the surface to low orbit.
Not to mention that, even if you ARE using handwavium FTL and "gravitic" reactionless thrust, you'd STILL need quite a bit of volume for fuel because that stuff would require an extremely large amount of energy.

I saw in some sci-fi fiction that there are some small spaceships that just a single person can use. These things are slim and you are basically lying down because it's literally that tiny. The only thing is, I've only seen these used for travelling short distances (i.e. within view) / combat. I was wondering if I could use such a sleek and tiny design as a normal spaceship that can travel FTL. I'd say travelling 10 light years would take just a single minute. Exactly how advanced would tech like that need to be? In this way, a larger ship or crew isn't necessary if you have no cargo you can't carry on your person (helped by making use of shrink rays). Is there any example of a sci fi civilisation that you think could have such tech that can do that I could draw inspiration from or have an idea of what how advanced I'm trying to do?
Tex: A Doylist explanation for these might be that they are analogues to personal vehicles, so are limited by the writer’s and readers’ expectations of personal vehicles, such as the need to use chemical fuels in order to use them. FTL, as a general rule, relies more on momentum than it does acceleration - our current theoretical models mostly rely on the use of exotic particles to fuel suggestions such as the Alcubierre drive, Krasnikov tubes, etc (Wikipedia).
Ten light years in a minute is easily traversed under these conditions, particularly if the technology were perfected to the point of mass production. This seems to also function as your unit of measurement, so you would be able to use this for all technologies of the same type within your worldbuilding. Because of the nature of FTL drives, they would not be unreasonable large (think of how much we’ve scaled down modern computers!), and you could conceivably compare them to the gasoline engines that are currently in the majority of our modes of transportation today. There are many, many, many variations on the theme of spaceships, so I’ll list some of the major franchises that have percolated popular perception of this technology for comparison:
Star Trek, Category: Spacecraft classes
Star Trek, Category: Starship classes
Battlestar Galactica ships
Stargate Tau’ri fleet
Stargate, Category: Hive ships
Stargate, Category: Spaceships
Star Wars, Starship (Legends version)
Wootzel: For examples in media, you may want to check out the TV Tropes page on FTL in media, and maybe even the Analysis Page on the same (this one gets dense at first, but further down the page there are a lot of examples of “types” of FTL tech that other creators have used).
If you want to have small ships that are capable of FTL, and you think it’ll serve your story or something about the theme of your world, then do so! Just pick and choose whatever rules and limitations you want in your world that suites you. You can pull inspiration from other works, or just think about what will work for you and make up your own conventions. Just note down what the tech requires and what limits it, and keep that consistent in your story so you don’t contradict yourself, but otherwise do whatever you’d like.
My doodle dump no.2: Team Fortress 2 :D
First, a tired miss Pauling.
Second, Soldier and Engineer with my Oc Jude. Also the first doodle of TF2. Had some issues when it comes to Engineer but managed fix it eventually.
And not me being a FANGIRL between the two... hehe...
Helmet party (or Rocket science) my beloved...
helmet party cowboy au ahh art
