So a mate saw this photo of Manny staring at the skylight and declared it an excellent reference for drawing.

Original artwork by Jessica Mason — thank you @zingo12.bsky.social!

Finally joining bluesky so I can yell about this project! We've made a bunch of progress recently, and I can't wait to share it with everyone.
minataur.bsky.social Minataur @minataur.bsky.social · Oct 20
My STUNNINGLY-talented co-author and I are presently writing ANIMA - The World is Always Ending, a PRE-apocalyptic romantic drama about mecha waging war against eldritch beasts from beyond the stars and the mentally-ill gay women who pilot them.

Check out this key art by @riotbreaker.bsky.social!
Key art from ANIMA - The World is Always ending, featuring the two protagonists staring each other down as a giant mech looms in the background. Kōgōmi Martyn stands with her arms crossed in her dress uniform, a crisp white jacket with golden epaulettes complete with a black tie and gloves. Long white hair cascades down her back, and blunt bangs frame her sharp features, including violet eyes (one of which has a fractured iris owing to her albinism) and glossy pink lips which have been massively over-lined. Mischa Rosenthal stands opposite her, in partial side profile, wearing a red Plug Suit—the uniform of mech pilots working for ANIMA, resembling a red-and-white boiler suit with the sleeves rolled up. Their hair is tied into a little side braid with an elastic band, and is an off-yellow colour thanks to a fading blonde dye job that’s already showing copious brown roots. They have a facial tattoo from one side of their face to another, a solid black line crossing their aquiline nose. Behind them, the mighty Port, Medusa, stands tall. It’s broad-shouldered with a very Gundam-esque face plate, narrow eyes and a W-shaped command fin which almost resembles a tiara. Its colour scheme is glossy pearlescent white and purple, much like its Plug, Kōgōmi. You could cut the sapphic tension of this held gaze with a KNIFE.

Name: Kōgōmi Martyn Age: 24 Pronouns: She/Her Ethnicity: Japanese/Australian About: Humanity’s so-called ‘last, best hope’ in the war against eldritch monsters from beyond the stars. Military captain and mech pilot extraordinaire whose mind is constantly straddling the line between self-doubt and self-delusion. Yes she’s a gatekeeper and a hater. She’s also god’s favourite princess, and the most interesting girl in the world. Red and white text on a grey background. In the middle is a drawing of Senji, a japanese woman. She has black hair and is wearing a black turtleneck with grey sleeves and a long black skirt. She has a thought bubble thinking about minecraft.

Something is *deeply* wrong with her beyond just her general unprofessionalism, but she’d rather spend all day playing video games with Miyuna or innovating cutting-edge new war machines than address it. Name: Miyuna Okabe Age: 25 Pronouns: She/Her Ethnicity: Japanese About: Strong of body but brittle of spirit, and the second-in-command of The Virtues, a prestigious eldritch monster execution squad.

Knows everything about everyone- that’s why his hair is so long. It’s full of secrets. Stop calling him a bad person just because he’s orchestrating your downfall 🙄 Name: Alister Dantes Age: 25 Pronouns: He/They Ethnicity: French About: The eyes of an owl and the constitution of a Victorian-era orphan bely this flakey Frenchie’s heart of gold. Mischa’s best (and only?) friend, and the type of person who would be helping middle-aged women through their divorces on MMOs if MMOs still existed. Would have loved Clash of Clans.
