Beyond the Stars: The Return of the True Space Epic in 2026 - Shadow Gaming For over thirty years, fans of the legendary Star Control II (now known as The Ur-Quan Masters) have been waiting for the original creators—Fred Ford and Paul Reiche III—to return…

On an Isel homeworld, the Junk Heap visits a Historical Cavern to read a vital piece of information.  With the Isels' permission, they record the history written on one of their History Crystals, translated by their guide.  This history, about a star system called "Brimstone" ended up being populated by species who have a strong affinity for burning hot worlds.  This also reveals an interesting piece of information on why the Mycon have been fewer in numbers(during the Starship Junk Heap timeline, 100 years after the Sa-Matra was destroyed): Something the Isel took part in called "Operation Ice Age".

Merry Christmas! One of my Christmas gifts is a Huion Inspiroy art tablet, and picked this sketch from 2024 to digitize and try the tablet out!

Should I start a campaign to get more people into #FreeStars /Star Control 2: The Ur-Quan Masters sequel, the best game of all time?

I'm a mod in the discord, and I think it needs just a bit more buzz

Meet Reep-Jeep(or RJ for short), an exile from the main Yehat homeworlds.  He was exiled because he was born with a malformed wing... which is unfair, because he is rather young, but has the heart of a warrior.

He went to Beta Wolf to find refuge in a place that accepts exiles, and he fit right in.  He is (nearly)unshakable.

First time drawing a Yehat, and of COURSE it's an FC!

"This is my favorite hat... used to be Jessie's hat, but she's given it to me."
Might color this later, since I like the doodle.

A handmade plush of my Melnorme fancharacter, Lavender.  She's made with various materials that I reclaimed, mostly articles of clothing that either do not fit or are unwanted.  So it's hard to say EXACTLY what materials she's made of, lol.

Additional notes: No sewing machine was used in the creation of this plush, it's ALL sewn by hand!  I also did NOT use or even MAKE patterns for this plush either, because when my mind's set to making a plush like this, I usually have a good idea of how it'll turn out when it's finished.

Second photo, this time a close up(include my hand for scale).  You can see the additional embroidery I did for the eye, mouth and freckles.  As always, embroidering the freckles was a HUGE pain in the neck!  But I AM happy with how the embroidery of the teeth and around the eye turned out.

Three days well-spent! And zero sewing machines used!

Rusty and Penny have a minor “rivalry” between them, but that’s for a good reason: Penny used to be a part of a rather vicious group of space pirates.  What Rusty has not come to acknowledge(yet) is that the rest of that pirate crew is dead and Penny’s the only remaining member of that crew left.
But hold on, how does Rusty know Penny was a part of that pirate crew??

It turns out that Beta Wolf was actually pilfered by that pirate crew, but he never saw Penny in the group that robbed the village of valuable goods.
So Penny has to remind Rusty that she’s no longer a pirate and that she has come to regret being that way from when she was a rather young woman.

Penny does tease Rusty, but this is (semi)friendly teasing, but Rusty does NOT like it when Penny does this!

Tried something different with this particular piece: color only background.
I imagine that a Melnorme ghost would take on the color they’re named after.  In the case of Lavender’s dearly departed mother, Rose-Red, a rosy shade of red.

Apart from adoring her daughter’s handiwork and being proud of her, what is Rose-Red’s ghost doing here?  Surely, she has something important to say, right?

Melnorme Headcanon Doc Since I follow the “starfish standing up idea”, their limbs(pods as they call them), might consist of a basic muscular structure(which is circular) and flexible cartilageneous matter, similar to spine...

BIG update to the Melnorme Headcanon doc! I'm clearly having too much fun writing about this species.

Gonna try to write some #freeStars / #UQM #ChildrenOfInfinity fanfiction this weekend

Will it be the *first* fanfic for the beloved sequel, before it's even out?

Probably not?

I'm going to write it as a sort of introduction to the universe for those who haven't/don't want to play a game from '92.

my intrusive thoughts at work tonight is how I got two DMs from #FreeStars / #UQM official mods telling me that bashing religion is okay, actually.

One of these days I should really talk about how much I love #StarControl / #FreeStars

Instead of just talking about the very few questionable people in it.

Just a big ol' thread

I can honestly talk about it for hours!

Rusty-Red(Melnorme with tripolomassia), Beeb'Ob(Umgah), Sergeant Plibnik(Spathi), Patinzo(Wolpertinger-like fan species of mine, the Isel) and Mugsy(another fan species, the bio-floral Mosch), grouped together, possibly greeting a client.

Since these friends have grown attached over the course of the time they worked together, they assumed the name the "Cargo Bay Boys", because of their line of work in cargo moving.
Rusty's tripled body mass helped him become quite possibly, one of the universe's strongest Melnorme, while Patinzo(named because of his tin-gray coloration) is also New Isella's strongest Isel. 
Beeb'Ob and Plibnik's jobs are to ensure that there is no missing cargo stolen by others they are delivering their cargo of refines metals and other valuable resource units.
Mugsy is typically close by, because Mosch are natural power generators and, if wearing it, powers a suit Rusty wears sometimes, either to enter planets without air, high pressure or extreme temperatures.

One thing they have in common; They're very friendly and always greet their clients.

Banker Pearl and her husband Taupe.  Taupe was originally born conjoined to his long since deceased brother Chestnut.  Separation from Chestnut resulted in stunting Taupe’s growth, but at least he survived the many therapies that allowed him to live a healthy life!  He and Pearl met in school as children and Taupe was immediately smitten by Pearl.  She was the most incredible thing he had ever, not only because of her tripled body proportion, but also the way she was able to swim.  Ever since they met eyes, the two were inseparable, to the point of getting married.

Captain Madolyn Michael, daughter of Captain John Michael and Syreen Penelope.  Madolyn(or just Maddy) takes over her father’s role with no small amount of pride.  Plus, to keep the theme of the Junk Heap having had cats onboard the ship, Maddy got some tattoos of cat prints.

Commander Sage-Green, Inventor Lavender’s son.  Regardless of being the first child born into the Junk Heap, Sage does not believe that he is good Captain material.  He’s fine with being the Junk Heap Legacy’s commander and chief machinist.  While he radiates his mother’s sassy, sarcastic and machine savvy ways, he also shows his father’s polite and professional demeanor.  As to who Sage’s father is, that’s top secret!

An Ilwrath fancharacter of mine named Saffron.
I names her Saffron, mainly because there was another Ilwrath Captain named Taragon, the name of an herb I knew of.  So why not give her the name of another herb that sounds Ilwrath-ish?

This particular Ilwrath was elusive all the years that the Ur-Quan war took place, having fled her homeworld before the Ilwrath fell for the voices of “Dogar and Kazon”(which were actually the Umgah using a ‘caster to imitate the Ilwraths’ gods).  Saffron knew this was a ruse(because who LAUGHS after making a command?), so she fled, using the excuse of “spreading the word” across the galaxy.
She reappeared once the Alliance of Free Stars liberated the slave-shielded worlds.  She remembers every detail of these events very, very clearly.
I used a few creative liberties when designing an elderly Ilwrath High Priestess, such as the lightening of her spider hairs and a fancier top.  With the additional flair such as the see-through skirt.
