"Soviet nuclear train art" by (?) Dmitry Choibolsan / Дмитрий Чойболсан in c/imaginarytrains@lemm.ee

yeah i honestly thought it was at first; especially with an uncredited artist

"Soviet nuclear train art" by (?) Dmitry Choibolsan / Дмитрий Чойболсан in c/imaginarytrains@lemm.ee

[–] Zeus@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children)

i think they are the original source, after a bit of a skim of 00s russian magazines

that page says "for the magazine 'populjarnaja mechanika'", and credits dmitri choybolsan (Дмитрий Чойболсан). it's not on the linked portfolio page, but it kind of matches his style(-ish) and it was used for the cover of 2008/№ 11:

now i can't find anywhere to read it to see cover credits, but i'm inclined to believe it

(are you just trying to see what you can get away with credit-wise, by the way?)

"Station" by Alejandro Burdisio in c/imaginarydieselpunk@lemm.ee

[–] Zeus@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

i love this; it's probably my favourite piece by burdisio

especially the metropolis poster on the wall

you could try putting a script to launch it on ~/.config/plasma-workspace/env/ - i can only assume other des wouldn't execute things in there

"At The Shores Of Time" by Thomas Thiemeyer in c/imaginarywastelands@lemm.ee

[–] Zeus@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

i can only presume it was inspired by planet of the apes, as this is so similar

"Taura RPG Chapter Breaks" by Javier Charro in c/imaginarysteampunk@lemm.ee

[–] Zeus@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

now i know i've only just got around to browsing this, but every single image in this album is gorgeous

it works flawlessly in eternity, although there's no thumbnail

i don’t intend to influence anyone’s opinions. if you like disney, please continue to like disney. it’s not that deep

it's literally not

it's a surrealist title on a surrealist post on a surrealist lemmysphere. do you really want me to title it "copyright is now a century long (from creation, or for the life of the author plus 50 years (or the last surviving author), or 75 years from publication, whichever is shorter (in the united states, where these companies are based (other countries may have different copyright laws)))"?

how have your opinions been influenced by this post? were you previously a huge copyright fan and think 100 years is a bit too long, but 75 years from publication is okay? because actually thinking about it it can't be about disney because you'd have to already be aware of the mickey mouse act to know the title was referencing disney, in which case this title doesn't say anything you don't already know?

i'm sorry, i know this is uncouth, but i'm leaving this conversation

"Battleship emerging proud" by Damir Šnajder in c/imaginarystarships@lemmy.world

[–] Zeus@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

"you're not immune to propaganda" is the artist's tagline, if you'd care to follow the link, and the name of another of his works:

a low-fi image of garfield with said tagline below it

also, it's not

propaganda

noun [ U ] disapproving
/ˌprɒpəˈɡændə/

information, ideas, opinions, or images, often only giving one part of an argument, that are broadcast, published, or in some other way spread with the intention of influencing people's opinions:

i came up with the title as a joke. it's funny. laugh.

the original image has nothing to do with copyright. i put the two of them together because i don't like disney. i don't intend to influence anyone's opinions. if you like disney, please continue to like disney. it's not that deep

The Leviathan, Emperor Calus' planet-eating pleasure ship. Thanks to Art Director Mike Zak for keeping me on point when I tried to make it square like other Cabal ships. The curved shape language really helped inform the rest of the Leviathan palette.
