About a year and a half ago, I was diagnosed as autistic Level 1, with mild ADHD. The impact it's had on the way I view myself, and how I perceive the world, has been striking. Being late-diagnosed has led to plenty of insights, and even more questions. Making art helps me cope. #art #audhd

"Scrappers"-- awkward amalgams of robot body parts put together into somewhat cohesive mechs. #art #illustration #neurodivergent #adhd #autism #audhd #flowstate #mech #mecha #robots #scrappers

I took an older bipedal "chicken walker" design and modified it into a "Scrapper" base mech, and I believe it turned out quite nice... #art #illustration #neurodivergent #adhd #autism #audhd #flowstate #mech #mecha #robots #scrappers

Fun with @drinkndrawchicago.bsky.social last night... Didn't get a lot of actual drawing done admittedly, but had good conversations and some "Scrappers" show 'n tell. #art #illustration #neurodivergent #adhd #autism #audhd #flowstate #mech #mecha #robots #scrappers

Here's a glimpse at what I'm planning for the next "Scrapper" mech design. This sketch is pretty representative of what my initial markmaking tends to look like when I start an illustration; thick lines in search of interesting shapes and silhouettes. #audhd #flowstate #mech #robots #scrappers

Scrapper, no scrapping! Oh man! #art #illustration #neurodivergent #adhd #autism #audhd #flowstate #mech #mecha #robots #scrappers
3D-printed "Scrappers" robot figures. One robot is assembling another robot, but got the parts mixed up, so the torso and waist are swapped and upside-down.

Design of the initial "Scrappers" lineup continues steadily... I've added articulation to the waists, wrists and ankles of the mechs, and plan to tweak the proportions to improve overall balance. #art #illustration #neurodivergent #adhd #autism #audhd #flowstate #mech #mecha #robots #scrappers

Instead of corporate sponsorship logos, Scrappers are often decorated by community artists to show support for their favorite mechs... #art #illustration #neurodivergent #adhd #autism #audhd #flowstate #mech #mecha #robots #nomadsculpt #3dprinting #scrappers

Exploring the "Scrapper" model further... Added balljoints to the shoulders and hips to allow for a little articulation and part-swapping, and painted in some detail with paint markers. #art #illustration #neurodivergent #adhd #autism #audhd #flowstate #mech #mecha #robots #scrappers

Made adjustments to the robot's proportions and details, and then swapped in some parts from my "Brawler" mech to turn it into a "Scrapper"... #art #illustration #neurodivergent #adhd #autism #audhd #flowstate #mech #mecha #robots #nomadsculpt #scrappers

Here's a low-poly Scrapper I modeled in PolysketchVR. I took it into Blender to tweak some of the proportions and make it manifold for 3D printing. Then I took it into Nomad Sculpt for some quick renders. #art #illustration #audhd #flowstate #mech #mecha #robots #scrappers #polysketchvr #3dprinting
