  • I create Starfield graphic novels.

    I’m a huge fan of the game, and there is this podcast called “Starfield with Normal People”, which has a Discord server, and they organise a weekly “Starfield Adventure Club”. Every week, one planet is selected, and we all go there and take screenshots and create a story.

    People are very creative, some publish a captains log, for my part, I ended up creating a graphic novel.

    For my part, it’s a mix of pure screenshots using the photo mode, some generative AI for the covers, and plain old montage using Figma.

    I’m having a lot of fun and I’m not tired of it yet, I’ve been doing this since February. I discovered I had a talent for storytelling and… Air scripting I guess?

    2023 has been a monstrosity of a year in all aspects of my life. This comic is self-care for me.

    If you want to read a few episodes, you can find them on my Facebook page, as well as on my DeviantArt page.

    Enjoy!




  • Chicago band Mechina, which plays space themed industrial / death and symphonic metal.

    Their music is very rhythmic, and I they are my go to band when I need to concentrate. But they are also the band I listen to whenever I need to feel good.

    They use both clear vocals and growling, and I really like both.

    Their albums tell a story that they keep on building with each release, and the singles connect the narrative of every album together.

    I’ve seen a few people call their music “Mass Effect Metal”, and I get why. They use a lot of audio that could be used in these video games : audio logs from lost spaceships, emergency communications and such.

    Here’s my favorite song from them. It’s a long one but I love every second of it. Even the sound effects at the start.
