They are typically used to carry al sorts of junk around the city, and in Yute and Tocuyo’s Dieselpunk Imachinarium, that’s exactly what they do. You see, the idea behind these characters is to propose a reinvention of my world and my environment, to answer the question, how would the world would be if an atomic bomb exploded in one of Peruvian main traffic streets, and a new world emerged from that rests of the previous one. Yute and Tocuyo fly around in this vehicle recollecting the metallic trash they are going to use to build they’re machines. They are hoarders of the useless, to rebuild it into something new, functional and powerful. In a way, thats also whats behind the proposal of a dieselpunk mech aesthetic.

In service of the Imperial Army since pre-war period, the chassis is based on that of domestic crawlers, but with the addition of armored crew compartment with entry hatches on backside, a mortar turret and built-in fighting position for infantry riding on the back that includes three machine gun turrets; two to the front and one at the back. > > Gargant’s primary purpose is to serve as a mobile fortress, relying on its armor as it approaches enemy ranks and takes up defensive position there, allowing infantry to fight safely from cover provided by its metal plating. It proved adequate for the task before the Falzan War, when the Army encounters little to no crawler resistance. However, Gargant became utterly outmatched by Worker States Alliance walkers due to its massive size, low maneuverability and weaponry that is ill-suited for walker combat. During Falzan War, it is often assigned to low-intensity fighting and ranged fire support duty, using various type of mortar shells. As more and more walkers are built by the Imperial Loyalists to fulfill combat needs, some Gargants have their weapons removed and converted into heavy supply carrier, faraway from the front. > > Nonetheless, the Gargant is still a symbol of Imperial’s former power and glory, for those who can remember it. A number of them regularly find their place in military parades, year after year alongside the newer walkers, never to be forgotten as the unrelenting fist of the empire that reach out and crush any foe. ::: Tumblr archive: https://afalzanwar.tumblr.com/archive RSS Feed: https://afalzanwar.tumblr.com/rss

Art Deco is something that I feel is deeply ingrained in Gotham and the Batman Universe! > > The three cars of focus here were my introduction into Batman and inevitably DC and the comics universe in general! I did not get into Batman through comics, books or games, I became a fan through TV and Film. My first introduction to Batman was from the 1960’s Television series and watching reruns on antenna. Adam West’s Batmobile was my first intro into Batman and made me curious to see 1989’s Batman!I loved the Art Deco Stylings of Gotham City in Tim Burtons take, but these films were not enough. When Batman: The Animated Series came out and my dad showed it to me I was hooked! > It was Retro - Futuristic, Dark and Gritty with a bit of mystery.

Source: [Ura by Small-Brown-Dog](https://www.deviantart.com/small-brown-dog/art/Ura-779669504) ::: spoiler (long!) description > The arrival of the latest incarnation of the Luftpanzer, Jaguar 2, on the eastern front had caused untold misery not only for the Russian front line soldiers but also for the tank design bureau. Stalin was going crazy, threats were made and personnel had disappeared. > > Just when it seemed that the Russians were making progress and driving the Nazi back, the Luftpanzer had almost overnight shifted the balance of power in favour Germany. The ME 626 Donnervogel was always a problem to armoured divisions but now in combination with the Luftpanzer 2 Russian armour just ceased to exist after any confrontation. > > According to Stalin the solution was simple: More armour, more fire power and more of us then them. Finding more men always seemed to be easy but the equipment was another matter.The building program for armoured fighting vehicles had been expanded to such a state that many engineering companies had found themselves subcontractors to the major arms builders and keeping up with current supply alone left little or no time for innovation and experiment. > > However, Mikhail Sokolov , designer and builder of heavy agricultural and industrial equipment was currently enjoying such a period where he could “play” simply because he was ahead of schedule. The company had produced a successful industrial lift generator before the war but had since been charged with the production of, as far as Sokolov was concerned, a lesser military design. He had actually been asked to slow down output as the subcontractors he shipped to were unable to meet their own almost impossible deadlines and had Solokov field generators sitting in crates taking up valuable room. > > There was no doubt that the military unit currently in production was powerful but it lacked the refined unidirectional field focusing of the Solokov unit. Material handling vehicles working in factories or on the docks needed precision field focusing to manoeuvre in confined spaces with ease. They should be able to stop and start in an instant, shift sideways and rotate about the vehicles central axis and all under load. Solokov wondered about such a vehicle fitted with a useful armament and double the power generation. > > In a bold move Sokolov redesigned the military field generator and fitted it with his own field focusing technology. He then fitted this to one of his own company Sokolov bulk lifters, a tall narrow but powerful dock side loading vehicle and it worked well. Encouraged by the results he had a redesigned thick steel armoured carapace made that wrapped around the front of the machine. The lifting gear equipment and control space was filled with a 75mm cannon and an ingenious self-loading magazine holding 12 shells – said to have been copied form a downed ME626 of which Sokolov denied. > > The potential was great but at this time the machine was beginning to lack power as the weight had increased with the addition of a war load. It was about this time that Sokolov had been imprisoned for the crime of hindering the war effort. However, Solokov turned this to his advantage stating that the war effort was now even more in jeopardy as he had the solution to the German armour problem. Being such a sensitive issue his claims echoed through the halls of power until they were heard by no lesser individual than Stalin himself who simply told his aid to instruct Solokov to “prove it”. > > Solokov did prove it having no real alternative if he wanted to live. > Within 4 months of his release The Volkosob was in production. The power generation was solved by 2 x Shvetsov aero engines driving generators and industrial low power Ion thrusters. They may have been low power, having been designed for material handling vehicles, but two gave the Volkosob a top speed over the flat of just slightly over 60MPH. There was a need to add conventional aerodynamic control surfaces to the Yolkosob to help it manoeuvre at speed and, over undulating terrain at top speed, keep it from becoming airborne where it became an uncontrollable pilot killing machine if not kept in check and brought back into field contact with the ground. > > The Yolkosob was ugly. Basically an industrial bulk lifter mutation on steroids built in the thousands and much loved by its operators. In the early days the pilots were women drafted in from the factories and docks where they had been skilled in the use of the non-military Solokov bulk lifter. They soon became skilled and feared fighters and along with their humble mounts are remembered for the part they played in turning the tide of the war in favour of the Motherland. > > Modelled and rendered in modo 12 > Background is a mash up of images from 123RF and stuff from my own archive. > > The best bit about this was non of the usual UV mapping as it uses procedural texturing which is fine on a model like this but a camo pattern would be a problem as would more surface detail such as rivets and panels which I normally do with a bump map over the UV guide. > > This started out as a possible tug or dockside vehicle for an aerial battleship theme but I got to thinking ……. > > \*\*\*\*\* more on the original story created for "Over to you" By Slingblade87 here: > https://www.deviantart.com/slingblade87/art/Red-Snow- > > This is good stuff > > Original here: https://www.deviantart.com/slingblade87/art/Winter-Offensive-702085686 > > slingblade87.deviantart.com/ ::: DeviantArt profile: https://www.deviantart.com/small-brown-dog/gallery [DeviantArt RSS Feed](https://backend.deviantart.com/rss.xml?type=deviation&q=by:small-brown-dog+sort:time+meta:all)
