I am so NOT a technical artist, I struggle with any scene that have perspective and straight lines (straigh llines, the most boring thing ever to draw for me). But hey I give it a try once in while.
megastructure kind of scene with a character and a pet bugchecking a pit

I just finished @norgad.bsky.social's Mosh module Brackish, about IDing bodies in the Evil Lab for insurance. Beautifully assembled, tho I wish there was more procedure for encounters. 3 sessions - players were hyped, got every body, ran the last survivor over with their car for some reason. 10/10.

Great session of OrbiMega tonight, we made it out of the pipes maze, got lucky while following Lem's datalog trail and found their last camp. The builders had assembled layers upon layers of office rooms over the pipes, blocking the way to the sector exit, creating a backrooms situation.

Panda did such an incredible job on this, it really sets the mood for the rest of the act (and eventually the whole campaign). This was my first experience with directing animation and damn is it complicated. There's so many moving parts and it requires so much time investment, but it was worth it.
