Here’s an Inkscape drawing I completed today:

I am moving my art & design work over to my world design blog and won’t cross-post stuff here much anymore.

As promised, here is the other cool thing IronPort did with Lego bricks:

The little sign reads:

IronPort 3D Logo 2007

Built by New York-based artist Nathan Sawaya in the IronPort booth during the 2007 Interhop event in Las vegas, this Lego exhibit was awarded “Most Ludicrous Promotion” by Smart Exhibits magazine.

More about the artist: Nathan Sawaya creates awe-inspiring works out of the most unlikely things. His recent North American museum tours feature large-scale sculptures using only Lego bricks. www.brickartist.com.

No Legos were harmed in the making of this piece.

42″ x 42″ x 60″

This sculpture now stands in the lobby of the IronPort HQ in San Bruno.

An attempt at a logo design for a fantasy Mars:

Not perfect, but not too bad either if I may say so myself. Just needs some work.

Update: I updated the image and added a caption, too – “Under the Moons of Mars”, the original title of “A Princess of Mars“. I actually like it now.

For those TORG-Players out there:

I make no claim as to the accuracy of this map.

I stumbled across some of my old drawings and thought I’d post them – I made these 16 years ago, when I was still in High School:

It’s actually kind of sad that I didn’t draw much in all those years – had I kept practicing since 1992 I may actually be able to draw relatively well today. Amazing how time flies. That’s life, I guess.

My first contribution to the “FAIL”-Meme:

I seriously can’t say how he managed to fail to figure out there’s train tracks at a train station. . Not the best “Fail” picture ever, but hey, it’s a start. Besides… I am bored.

Saw the CD Cover Game on Pedro’s blog. I thought it was a good idea for some quick fun, but it turns out I had to modify the rules: Most of the images Flickr returned were “All rights reserved” or “No derivative works”. So I simply took the first image that I was allowed to use:

The photo is by Calliyan.

I’ve recently been practicing my Inkscape skills. They’re still lousy, but at least I manage to get some kind of decent results now:

“Vancouver to Brazil in less than six days – with the Pan-American Airship Company!”

It’s of course an alternate history thing.

Here’s a little bonus:

Hindenburg Song

I love this song.
