Description
Along with all the other projects, there's this short sci-fi piece that's gone through many iterations in 2D drawings. It's about a patched-up, recycled infantry trooper, functional, but not combat-fit any more. He's posted to the edge of the Universe as a sentinel. He so far out there that if he looks to the right, there's a guttering red dwarf star. Look to the left, and there's only blackness. There's nothing out there. He rides this large dim-witted herbivore, making his rounds, trying to convince himself that his duties, his life, actually has a point...some shred of meaning. And the evidence in favor, is not good.

Interesnig crachure, but it can't be look realistik, becouse the head is bigger then lags. and the bady is smaller. you can try add the tail for the balans. but I don't know how many this can help. Good Luck! =)

True. All true. But this is science fiction [we're leaning heavy on 'fiction' here] and anything can happen. When the first reports from Australia reached Europe, people who first saw drawings of Kangaroos and Platypus's laughed and said they couldn't possibly be real.

Looks perfectly in keeping with your theme of Vaughn Bode homages. I could see Cobalt-60 sitting atop this guy.
