Part of what gets me about the cybertruck is it’d look cooler if you just chamfered some of those edges and added some shallow brake bends to the side.

It isn’t just that it’s big and dumb it’s that they could’ve so easily made it actually cool but they didn’t because that would mean telling Elon his idea wasn’t the best possible thing

Astronomics Game Art : Designing Mining Equipment! Pt 2

Brainstorming and feedback loops One of the first steps of designing is always brainstorming -- sometimes this starts before research, sometimes I research first, and often I go back and forth, letting brainstorming push me to the limits of my current knowledge and then taking to the internet to open up new territory. For the equipment for Astronomics (demo on steam right now!), while the design team had a few key assets they were looking for, they were also still brainstorming and so we were all kind of discovering what the equipment part of the game could be as a whole.

For me, that brainstorming usually looks like a LOT of very rough drawings. I usually have my research sketches open nearby for reference, and I try and draw small enough that i can see all my brainstorming and seek out possibility spaces between ideas. Above is my first VERY rough brainstorming page, and on it you can see art from two passes - the softer, lighter drawings are the open-ended thinking; the darker clear lines are the second pass, where I start filtering, choosing which pieces to take to the rest of the team to start conversations with.

You can see how we would collect feedback above - i would write notes and do additional drawing on top of the submitted artwork as we went through things in screenshared video meetings, and then have these with me as I iterated further. One thing you might notice is that these are all drawn with straight lines -- Astronomics is a low-poly 3D style game, and it was fun to think about simplifying the shapes right from the beginning. While I didn't do all my drawing like this, it was a fast and quick way to get clean linework that had some connection to the style of the game long before we really knew anything about said style! Speaking of style... Next up, we had to make some big decisions. Astronomics has a lot of equipment with a big range of functions and scales and the most important thing was making sure it all read like equipment from the same manufacturer - that being CubeCorp, as you'll see in the demo. I narrowed it down to three possibilities:

I went in three directions -- "Star Wars" style, all panel lines and chamfered edges and a sense of overall complexity; "Safety" style, with safety bars and frames around everything, focusing otherwise on simple, chunky shapes; and "Modern" style, exploring simple silhouettes with hidden complexity. (none of these are official names for known styles, eg, the star wars style didn't actual aim for matching the style in those films particularly -- these names were more mnemonic devices to help me quickly sum up what I was thinking in a punchy way, and help my coworkers refer to the styles more easily in conversation while we discussed an debated direction together.) In the end, what we chose was mostly Safety-styled, but elements from both other directions made their way in too!

And here was my first sheet ft a pass on the drill, pump and vaccuum, containers for solids, liquids and gasses, a worker bot, a worker bot home, and a robust scanner machine. A few things we were thinking about: we wanted there to be a sense of a unit of size that everything fit into - CubeCorp, remember? - and so even our most complicated equipment needed to pack down into that cube. That meant that we were going to be animating equipment essentially unfolding, so I tried even at this stage to think about what that could mean for the drill and pump and vaccuum, and you can see packed and unpacked states up there for each design. They also were likely to be carried around by our little darling worker bots -- so everybody needed feet the bots could squeeze between to get underneath. Speaking of, they probably went through the most designs of everything, and what's in the demo does not appear in these pages at all, haha, but here, a few more passes:

In fact, you might not be able to find any of these exact designs in the demo -- that's just the nature of concept art in games! What the game needed then and what it needed later -- as the game design itself was developed -- well, it changed, as it often can! I think it can be easy from the outside to assume that everything anyone thought of was eventually brought to life, but that rarely ever happens. Concept art is a process, and so even if these designs didn't make it into the game, they were an important step along the path towards designs that did, and they taught us a lot about what we did and didn't want Astronomics to look like!

Locked to the strip. The NW105 5-Lug Beadlock wheel is very similar to our original NW105 5-Lug one piece forged monoblock wheel with one big exception: It has been re-engineered to include a special bolt-on outboard beadlock ring that, like the wheel itself, is also precision-machined from forged 6061-T6 aluminum. This forged aluminum ring holds the tire securely in place, to limit unwanted tire slip against the wheel, and to keep the tire from unseating, at very high speeds. The forged beadlock ring is secured to the wheel with a series of 21 standard lightweight titanium bolts. The Forgeline forged monoblock NW105 5-Lug Beadlock features a split 7-spoke design with tapered angular spokes and pronounced chamfered edges that creates a high-tech appearance on par with its advanced engineering technology and standard-setting performance capability. It is is available to order immediately in 17-inch, 18-inch, and 19-inch diameters in a range of widths and custom offsets & fitments. And just like any Forgeline wheel, the NW105 5-Lug Beadlock is available with fully customizable finish options.

@taddymason These are so cool! I love how beautifully you've captured all the little shapes that define their forms, and I wanted to highlight two cool elements I saw

I love the visibility of the tiny flecks of impurities that almost look like bubbles in a soda here, and the way the highlight continues down the slightly chamfered edges of the planes. Also the effect of what I think must be a piece of reddish stone affixed to the rear of the crystal? The shape that shows almost looks like a person sealed away inside the crystal, and that's very cool and inspiring.

on this crystal I love how clear it is that the green parts of the crystal are translucent in that you can see the walls of the white material descending through. I also love how the highlights communicate the form of this rounded crystal, and while it might be just where cloudiness in the material itself coincides with the highlight, but it looks like the sky is being reflected on the crystal's surface?

Very cool work, I should do more studies.

The Timeless Appeal of Black Granite: Enhancing Outdoor Spaces with Strength and Style

Black granite has long been admired for its timeless elegance and remarkable durability. Known for its dark, rich tones and exceptional strength, this natural stone is increasingly becoming the material of choice for outdoor applications. From patios and pathways to pool edges and decorative landscapes, black granite offers the perfect blend of aesthetics and performance. In this blog, we will explore how different black granite products such as black granite paving, black granite planks, black granite coping stones, blue black granite paving, and black granite block paving can redefine modern outdoor spaces.

Why Choose Black Granite?

Black granite is a dense, igneous rock that stands out for its aesthetic versatility and structural integrity. Its high resistance to wear and tear makes it suitable for both residential and commercial outdoor applications. The consistent dark hues add an element of sophistication to any setting, while the material’s hard-wearing nature ensures long-term reliability.

Key Benefits:

Durability: Black granite is one of the hardest stones available, capable of withstanding heavy foot traffic and weather conditions.

Low Maintenance: Requires minimal upkeep compared to other natural stones.

Versatility: Complements both modern and traditional architectural styles.

Slip Resistance: Ideal for wet areas when treated with the right finish.

Eco-Friendly: Natural and recyclable with minimal environmental impact.

Black Granite Paving: A Class Apart

Black granite paving is a premium choice for pathways, patios, garden walkways, and driveways. Its sleek and uniform appearance brings a sense of luxury to any outdoor space. Available in various surface finishes such as flamed, honed, or bush-hammered, these paving stones provide excellent traction and safety.

Ideal Uses:

Residential driveways and pathways

Courtyard flooring

Poolside patios

Outdoor kitchens and BBQ zones

In addition to its aesthetic appeal, black granite paving is highly resistant to moisture, making it ideal for areas exposed to the elements year-round.

Black Granite Planks: Modern Design Meets Natural Beauty

Black granite planks are an excellent alternative to traditional concrete or wooden planks. These long, rectangular stones mimic the appearance of wood flooring but come with the durability and permanence of granite. They are perfect for contemporary designs and lend a streamlined look to patios, terraces, and garden paths.

Benefits:

Long-lasting and scratch-resistant

Perfect for clean, linear designs

Available in varying thicknesses and lengths

Weather and UV resistant

Black granite planks can be laid in staggered, straight, or herringbone patterns to create visually interesting layouts that enhance your outdoor aesthetic.

Black Granite Coping Stones: The Finishing Touch

Often overlooked but vitally important, black granite coping stones serve both functional and aesthetic purposes. These stones are used to cap walls, edges of pools, or steps, providing a smooth and safe finish that protects underlying surfaces.

Common Applications:

Pool edging

Wall caps

Garden borders

Step treads

With a polished, bull-nosed, or chamfered edge, black granite coping stones offer enhanced safety, especially around swimming pools. Their resistance to chlorine and weather damage makes them a reliable choice for both residential and commercial installations.

Blue Black Granite Paving: A Cool Alternative

Blue black granite paving offers a subtle variation of classic black granite. The blue undertones add a unique depth and coolness to outdoor spaces, making it a favorite among designers seeking something a little different. This variation retains all the benefits of black granite while providing a softer, more modern tone.

Where It Shines:

Contemporary garden paths

Zen-inspired courtyards

Urban rooftop patios

The unique coloring of blue black granite complements lighter architectural elements like white or grey walls and provides a beautiful contrast with greenery.

Black Granite Block Paving: Classic Meets Contemporary

For those seeking a more traditional, cobbled look without sacrificing strength or sophistication, black granite block paving is the perfect solution. These smaller, rectangular or square stones are laid in interlocking patterns that enhance structural integrity and visual appeal.

Key Features:

Heavy load-bearing capacity

Excellent for driveways and high-traffic areas

Classic appearance with modern performance

Variety of layout options (herringbone, basketweave, etc.)

Because of its robust nature, black granite block paving is widely used in commercial plazas, public pathways, and upscale residential driveways.

Installation and Maintenance Tips

When investing in black granite for your outdoor space, proper installation and maintenance ensure maximum longevity and beauty.

Installation Guidelines:

Always use a compacted sub-base to ensure stability.

Install proper edge restraints to prevent shifting.

Use jointing compounds that are suitable for natural stone.

Seal the stone if recommended, particularly in high-stain areas like kitchens or driveways.

Maintenance Tips:

Sweep regularly to remove debris.

Power wash occasionally to maintain the surface finish.

Re-seal every 3-5 years, depending on usage and exposure.

Real-Life Applications: Transforming Spaces

1. Residential Gardens

Homeowners use black granite paving to create elegant garden paths that blend seamlessly with natural landscapes.

2. Commercial Properties

Offices and retail complexes choose black granite planks and block paving for a clean, professional look.

3. Public Infrastructure

Municipal projects include blue black granite for its durability and visual impact in public plazas and walking paths.

4. Hospitality and Leisure

Hotels and resorts install granite coping stones around pools and water features to combine luxury with safety.

Final Thoughts

Black granite is more than just a beautiful material; it's a wise investment in durability, functionality, and design. Whether you're laying a new patio, paving a driveway, or enhancing your garden with coping stones, black granite delivers unparalleled quality. Its versatility makes it suitable for various styles and functions, while its timeless elegance enhances the visual appeal of any space.

When planning your next outdoor renovation, consider the wide range of options—from black granite paving to black granite block paving—available at this trusted source. It’s a simple step that will transform your environment for decades to come.

4. Designing a Harmonious Bedroom Suite

Creating synergy between elements

Color cohesion: Select door wood tones that align with carpet warmth and skirting finish.

Elegant continuity: Mimic door paneling or molding in skirting profiles for a refined flow.

Pattern balance: Use carpets with understated patterns if doors and skirting feature strong detail.

Sample interior combinations

Classic luxury: Plush beige carpet, solid walnut door, ogee wooden skirting—rich, cohesive warmth.

Modern minimalism: Gray natural-fiber rug, white matte flush door, white PVC square skirting—clean, calm, contemporary.
