Asteroid Belt Blues

As humanity moved outward from Earth in the late 21st Century, a new breed of pioneer was born.

Hardy, resourceful, independent - the space pilots, freighter crews, asteroid miners - rock jockies - nearly half a billion kilometres from home.

This blog catalogues the various companies and factions working the rocks in that cold, hard vacuum, including descriptions and drawings of their ships, their habitats, their uniforms, their way of life.

Sketchbook spaceships.

More little spaceships. i never get bored of these. I hope you don’t get bored of looking at them. Still keeping my usual orange colour scheme, but adding some lime green for a change. The blue and orange ships are a tribute to the classic Gulf Oil sponsored race cars of the 60s and 70s.

Drawn in a Moleskine sketchbook with Copic SP Multiliners.

Buy prints of my work here.

More prints and postcards coming to the store soon.
