So, I’m working on a big scifi story…  I think it’ll be at least the end of the year before I get all the models done, but Kheprit is the story of a soldier who is recovering the shattered, stolen hardware of one of the Great Nine artificial intelligences: OSIRIS. Along the way she picks up some companions, the beautiful miner Dale and his adventurous wife Kaylee (her name is a placeholder, His is a Dale Arden homage)

See, humans have developed FTL travel, and it works by poking a wormhole through another dimension. But that dimension isn’t empty, and so humans developed these AI to protect them from the Eldrich Horrors that might come through on a badly calculated jump.

Lovecraft+Egyptian mythology+scifi.  How great is that idea?

But I wanted to try a more realistic style for this art.  So here’s a sample shot of Kheprit so far.  Warning, I haven’t modeled her flight suit yet, so she’s not wearing pants.

As always, feel free to comment.  I’m probably going to have to do more modeling work on her hands and make a shoulder deformation fix when her arms are up like this.  Also, her arms need a little more definition
