Suffered nightmares as a child of a giant imposing figure I now call "Reapers" and illustrate variations of them when I have a spare moment. Maybe by painting them I am warding them off :)

So by popular demand I've added a pre-order for both the Megastructures 2nd printing and the Starship hulls bonus book on gumroad, you can buy them separately, or combined. They'll ship right after the kickstarter books ship. Thanks for all the support! https://artofsoulburn.gumroad.com
The kickstarter is officially funded with almost $42k! Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen, I'll have more news in the coming weeks on the project, but until then, you have my eternal gratitude!
Less than 48 hours to go on the Kickstarter, and 118% funded. Thanks to everyone who contributed, and why not join us if you haven't already? Dyson Spheres, O'Neill Cylinders and Space Elevators! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/artofsoulburn/megastructures-the-visual-encyclopedia-book-2nd-printing
With Emerald City Comicon over, time to focus on the last few days of the Megastructure Kickstarter. Things look good to fund on wednesday (knock on wood), so if you're still interested in some of the custom rewards, give it a look, and join the crowd! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/artofsoulburn/megastructures-the-visual-encyclopedia-book-2nd-printing
Just because everything happens at once, while finishing the kickstarter I've also been manning my table at Emerald City Comicon. Had a great 2 first days. If you're in the Seattle area, come out to say hi and get a book signed!
We've reached our fundraising goal for the Megastructurese Kickstarter! Thanks to everyone who helped make this possible! Now let's create a buffer above the goal so a few last minute cancellations (which always happen) don't affect the outcome.
