This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

Carver, the Dead Space pustule keeps shooting projectiles at me, even in my dreams!

Did you happen to watch Stargate Atlantis?

Only the first few episodes when they first got aired in my country. Is there an episode with similar creatures?

The Ancients had drone weapons of similar shape, but about 1 meter long. From what I remember, the very first episode featured one in Antarctica (before gating to Atlantis). The awkward scientist launches one that bursts out of the snow and starts chasing the jock officer in a helicopter. They glow when flying. It's not a very unique shape but it specifically reminded me of the first snow scene

Oh, I dimly remember! I loved Stargate SG-1 but never got into Stargate: Atlantis unfortunately.

Gotcha. I saw all 3 series and enjoyed each for various reasons. I'm just always intrigued when I find something within your work that harks back to a specific item in my memory, wondering if you drew inspiration from the same space. I know our general age and interests have notable overlap.

I don't recommend SG: Universe unless you loved Battlestar Galactica (2004 series) and can just turn on your blinders to the hurried wrapup of season 2/the series when it didn't pull BSG numbers.

Funnily enough this talk about Stargate made think about rewatching Battlestar Galactica.

I saw season 1-3 live but only finished the show around 2022. My wife and I fell off during season 3 two different times. Literally 10 years. I missed the original S4 airing due to school or something. But at least we know now that it's not so bleak if you can emotionally get past New Caprica

I got introduced to it shortly after S4 concluded, around 2010. Nostalgia for 90s/00s Scifi is hitting pretty hard right now :'-)
