2 Gedanken zu “Sci-fi settings…”
What a read!
What’s a cliff hanger I cannot wait to see what you come up with next!
Fully there with you on 40k.
I am not a big scifi fan, I like Star Trek Voyager for the journey and Firefly for the world building. They use big fantasy tropes throughiut which gets me into it.
Are you planning on a game or display project?
Have you though about pulp as a source of inspriation?
So many questions!!!
Thanks for your reply! Ah yes – pulp…. goodness…. I am so torn! On the one hand I have a hard sci-fi streak that makes me want everything to be grounded in PROPER SCIENCE! For example – breaking the speed of light is breaking causality and therefore total rubbish based on our current understanding of the universe (alcubierre drives aside for the moment). And yet – the pure style of pulpy galactic high jinx (I did mention Barbarella for example…) is soooo tempting.
I have to admit – I really like Voyager too. It has plenty of weaknesses (Poor Harry Kim – not a shred of character development through 7 seasons) – but the whole concept of a journey through uncharted space with limited resources is so much fun!
Hmmmm – a display project is a good idea! Generally, though, I just want someting to help me focus my painting/sculpting in this genre.
