Operation “Smack them in the armpit” was a stunning success. Unfortunately, it failed to intimidate the Jade Falcons. Good thing Kai had a back-up plan.

Continuing the fight for the gash! It’s time to swat some toads. Good thing the Hatchetman comes with a suitable fly swatter.

Next up is the Kai Allard battle at the gash sequence. Starting with Kai’s defense of the field hospital art.
I have already posted the key colored pieces for the sequence, but I have a ton of grayscale art to show off.

The final scene from the battle of Radstadt. Another classic in my line of looong scrolling scenes with a static element for framing. I pioneered this back in the Rifleman episode with the dropship scenes; the sequence really holds up.

Sarna’s November Bad Mech article is here. It probably takes a wise and very patient Mechwarrior to pilot a Great turtle; lots of time to meditate

Not everything I make for TTBT gets used. Here’s a scene of the 1st Drakons and the Norseman’s assorted dropships moving to protect the jumpship. While ultimately successful, I believe they get wiped out by the Clanner forces. 🫡

Had the pleasure of creating a promotional poster for this year’s Southern Assault event; more mech football! I also provided a bunch of prints to the prize pool. Congrats to the lucky mech-jocks!

After a break, we’re back with a couple of space scenes from the TTBT Twycross episode. We have the Dire Wolf as the Norseman arrives. Setting up the scene for a conflict that will stall the Clan Invasion.

Continuing our spotlight on Tyra. Lots of little layering tricks used for this one. ( Thanks to Crow for making it work. ) Even Tyra’s head is on separate layer to shake around inside the helmet.
