[ceaseless-rambler]

If I had a nickel for every mechs character in a romantic and/or sexual relationship with some sort of space transportation I'd have three nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened thrice

[necromancers-incorporated]

There is something so special to me about how Sigfrid says "let me stay as yours" to the Odette, rather than saying "let me keep you" or something like that

If I had a nickel for every time someone was in questionable relationships with their starship

I would have two nickels which isn’t a lot but it does beg the question WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE MECHS FANDOM

Mechs Ships Tournament: Transportation Bracket Top Round

These three were submitted more than four times as much as any other ship. They'll compete against each other in a one-week round, and then against the victor of the rest of the tournament. May the best ship win.

Top Round: Odette vs Aurora vs Ratatosk

The Odette

The Aurora

The Ratatosk Express

Voting ended onDec 11, 2023

Odette: A ship and its captain go down together. 

Aurora: The ship that the Mechanisms travelled on for thousands of years. She was in a relationship with Nastya Rasputina. She was a moon once. She partially runs due to the actions of spiders. She does not tell the best bedtime stories, but we love her anyway. In the end, she wasn’t herself anymore, or Nastya could no longer recognize her, and Nastya went Out with the last piece of her original plating, letting the two of them die together. 

Ratatosk: The train, the myth, the legend. Any schoolchild could tell you about it. The train that Odin spent decades building, only to realize that conquest wasn’t its purpose at all. Without this train, the Bifrost Incident would never have existed. All aboard the viking space train, and a happy Fuck You And Fuck Your Train Day to you.

Empty black, the space between stars A ship pushes on Slowly, damaged engines leave a trail of glowing plasma Stark and brilliant against the dark

Uhuhuh another piece for my Swan Song Project! I think that that may become a tag, mumble muble.

Anyway! Enjoy a little enviroment study I did for my portfolio. I know the song say “empty black”, but I wanted to draw cute nebulae. Also. It’s impossibile that there might be smoke in space but.. POETIC LICENCE. Sue me.

I will show more soon when I’ll finish the pieces for the portfolio!

Day Seven: Stars

Swan song and this line kill me everytime :’)

[Image description: A digital painting of Siegfried in The Odette. She is standing at a platform and staring out of a window. The window shows space and many stars in it. She is surrounded by steel and there is a faded speech bubble above the window. It's says "escape pods are working fine".]
