Time for some steamed crabs!
A table covered in brown paper with a steamed crab, red in color, covered in Chesapeake Bay seasoning. Next to it, drawn on the paper, is a doodle of a grumpy crab with a mallet.

I've been a bit creatively drained lately, thanks to the day job, but I've managed to spend a bit of time coming up with some more color variations of the #Aerodex logo... in case I ever need 'em.
Several color variations of the logo for "The Aerodex."

Well looks like it's #PortfolioDay!

I'll take the opportunity to show off my amateur/hobbyist 3D projects — I'm not necessarily looking for work at the moment, but here's some recent pieces I've done for fun anyway!

A silver aircraft of unusual configuration, with a red and blue tail rudder, flying upward toward the sky. A wingman flies alongside in the distance. A turquoise flying wing aircraft of unusual configuration, flying high over an art deco city built along a coastline. A spherical-hulled starship based on Star Trek TOS, similar to the famed "Daedalus" class, but different. Named "S.S. Baychimo." A Waco YOC-1 biplane aircraft flying high over some fields.

A prototype Vistalux 202 Thunderhead bomber sits on the apron at Vistalux's wingcraft development facility in the hinterlands of Consorpine City. Its unpainted skin sparkles in the light of the summer sun. #Aerodex
A 3D rendering of a large, silver flying wing parked on the tarmac of an airport, with stairs wheeled up beside it and its canopy left open.

The latest entry in the #Aerodex is the Vistalux 202 "Thunderhead," a light bomber design inspired by the Northrop flying wings and an obscure experimental plane called the "Horton Wingless." www.artstation.com/artwork/RKQZWW #skyfi #digitalart #blender #b3d
Digital art depicting a flying-wing aircraft painted azure blue, gliding high above a city full of skyscrapers built in shallow water. The plane has a trilobite insignia on the wings, and text reads "Sovereign Compact of Ebbtide" in English and the Ebbtide language.

Guess who's got art in the upcoming 2026 Star Trek Ships of the Line calendar? I'm so thrilled this is finally shared publicly, there are SO many incredible artists featured in this edition and I'm just honored to get to be one of them!
A preview image of the back of the Star Trek Ships of the Line 2026 calendar, featuring each month's artwork. I have highlighted my own (March), a depiction of USS Voyager exploring a strange, new world. A preview image of the cover of Star Trek Ships of the Line 2026, which features artwork of the TOS version of the USS Enterprise created by Lewis Niven.

Every Trek fan who makes 3D models has to invent her own starship class at some point, right? www.artstation.com/artwork/XJYNel
A set of 4 orthographic views of a starship design, from the TOS era of Star Trek. It has a spherical primary hull, similar to the Daedalus and Olympic classes.

Starship “Baychimo,” a UESPA science vessel, disappeared in 2299 while studying the frozen rings of Tessil IVb. No distress call, no debris, and no trace. Comms officers in the area sometimes claim they can hear the telemetry from her instruments, echoing faintly amidst the subspace static.

I bought this little space heater a few years ago to heat my basement office, specifically because it looked cool. Today I finally added a finishing touch.
A small Vornado Glide space heater. On its own it looks like a little jet engine, but here it has had shark’s teeth decals added on the sides to heighten the cool factor.

So… did everyone get the weird simping-for-Trump message in TikTok?

Drop an alien that’s not from Star Wars or Star Trek.
A screenshot from “Mars Attacks!” showing the leader of the Martians and his soldiers. Ack ack!

Here they are old-timey photo style! Sometimes I just like making things look like old postcards.
Two fictional aircraft in flight, depicted on a faux antique photo. The photo is gray/sepia toned, and the planes are hand labeled "Klutzy" and "Vudu Yudu." Handwriting on a piece of tape captions the image as "U11 Mystics over Azilia."

Two Ayrforse Asylia U11 Mystics — "Klutzy" and "Vudu Yudu" — patrol over the swamps of Gëratf. These aircraft feature a hammerhead-inspired design, dual pusher engines, and an extensive range.
A photograph of a pair of fictional aircraft in flight over a green landscape far below. The aircraft have an unusual configuration, with a nose-mounted canard and two pusher-propeller engines mounted on the wings.

An old photo of a BL37 “Peerless," a small single-engine tandem-wing patrol aircraft built by the Bonner-Lance company. The aircraft is primarily employed by the Royal Caladieran Air Service as part of their dirigible-based ocean patrol wing, but is also quite popular with Norandian pirates.

If you see this, share a vehicle!

These are a pair of Av-61 Imagos from the Wanderers Guild, flying above the shallow seas of Panauva.
Two fictional green airplanes of unusual configuration flying high above a turquoise ocean among the clouds. The one in the foreground is tilted toward the viewer, showing the logo of the Wanderer’s Guild on its wing—a circle, one half a blue field with an eye symbol, and the other a white field with a yellow star.
