‽ I Await The Man Of Tomorrow ‽ @bisontomorrow.bsky.social · 2d

I also have a project called The Petrocentury, which is technically one of my oldest? but it's too messy to even be shown, with barely any modern art, not even to the Pleistonauts' level, but know that it involves sapient robots!

i guess that's it then? i draw! look me up! give me money! yay!!

The Pleistonauts is a semi-dark, semi-prehistoric fantasy set at the end of the ice age! starring a nigh-magical trio of andean hunters as they search the world for their missing gods!

this art's ancient, a lot of lore stuff is ancient too, but i'd be remiss if i didn't include it!

three figures stand in-front of Mt. Chimborazo, it's covered in filters and stylized shapes, all of them are brown-skinned

Stick, former royal guardsman, now self-serious protector of a found family: a stout man of no left arm, in his right he wields an unorthodox spear, its end is a floating smooth circular stone, he has long brown hair, wearing something of a torn green poncho, beneath it is a long-sleeved brown sweater, he has very baggy pants made of white llama fur, his boots, belt, and gloves are all the same black color, he has a pair of three golden lines beneath his eyes

Iwi, former princess, now ventures out into the world with her two beloved guardians: a young woman, she wears a long brown sleeved dress, only broken up by a golden ring atop her shoulders and a golden shape between her shirt and her lower dress, she has long brown hair, her gloves and boots are the same black color

Carrion, genderqueer explorer and cartographer, the sweetheart between the two's extremes: an older fellow of short brown hair in a bun, they have a much longer blue poncho with an ornate black pattern at the top of it, it covers a dress that also ends in a blue rim, but the dress beneath the poncho is the same brown as the other two, their gloves and boots are the same black color, they have two golden lines going beneath their eyes down their entire face

two figures stand in front of Germany's Black Forest, it's very foggy and too covered in filters and shapes

Synaniel Evergreen, bug worshipper, vengeful colonalist: a Spanish man of a pencil mustache and beard, long light brown hair, he has a small scar beneath his left eye, he wears simple blue wooden armor and a helmet that looks like a wasp's head, his pants are white and well-kept though they end in similarly blue boots, notably he has long elf-like ears, he holds a long barbed green sword

Nephri, jaded lobster viking, Synaniel's closest confidant and only friend: a short man bearded man, he wears a horned helmet in the shape of a lobster's face, he has a red furred cape and similar sleeves and pants/boots, covered by a white well-kept furred tunic and skirt, he holds an axe that's been modified to look something like a claw, and a wooden shield with an imperial symbol drawn on it

By Jove! is a writing experiment of mine to see how I could finish a story with barely any forethought! it stars a quarter of mythological gods as they're sucked into a magical mystery that forces them to contend with their irrelevancy! a sequel might be soon!

Hades, Zeus, The Morrígan, and Odin sit in front of a mural of various story events, they are mostly accurate to how they're depicted in statues and in culture, except Odin wears an operatic winged iron helm, and The Morrígan is a gothic bird-woman version of the mom from Song of the Sea, she also has golden earrings, they all look confused or bored, perhaps even angry, the title "By Jove! an experimental novella by Bison T. Great" sits above them in-front of the mural

Killjoy Kilroy is a world where the supernatural is catalogued, the most dangerous example being revenants, slashers! to protect folks, the precinct of Pandeus City has created a unit of benevolent revenants to fight the evil ones, hijinks ensue

Kilroy's never been a big project, but god is it fun

a bald figure of dull light blue skin and a unibrow stares as the viewer, he holds a bloody fire axe, he's wearing black body armor with long white sleeves, the words "TILL MY HEAD FALLS OFF" shine on a bright red background, this is a reference to the TMBG song

a brown-haired politician sits in shadow, he holds a large kitchen knife, his face isn't visible but he has one red pupil and the outline of an eyepatch, he's wearing an American Psycho-inspired blue striped suit, with a garish red tie, he too sits in a bright red background, with bright red letters reading "SWEET BOD" on his desk, this references the Lemon Demon song, a row of campaign posters are also in the background, showing the figure in a good light, they read "VOTE ELLIS FOR SENATOR" as he holds a city in his arms, though the second to last one reveals his true name as "THE HIEROPHANT", with blood trickling down his lips

a cast of characters, 8 figures marching to the right, i will be listing them right to left

KILROY, WITTY AXE-WIELDER: a bald figure of dull light-blue skin, he wears black police body armor with multiple pouches lining its frame, underneath this seems to be a white shirt of long sleeves, his pants are the same color, covered by black boots that go up to the knee, he wields a fire axe

THE HITCHHIKER, NEUROTIC THROWING KNIFE-WIELDER: a black woman of opaque circular glasses, she smokes a cig holder, her hair is tied in a bun, she has a wound of constantly gushing blood on the right side of her face (though the piece assures us it'd be on her left), she wears a black vest and jeans, a white croptop underneath

THE RIDER, MYSTERIOUS MOTORCYCLIST: a motorcyclist, wears a black suit and pants and a black helmet that obscures his features, he has a white shirt underneath

SARA, THE SOUL OF A TEENAGER TRAPPED IN THE BODY OF A DOLL: a seemingly wooden children's doll, the right side of her face is cracked, she has brown hair and a pink shirt, a purple skirt, and yellow boots, she has a puppet mouth

THE GUNSLINGER, AGENT OF VENGEANCE: mysterious brown-skinned cowboy, his moustache is long and dangles from his face, his hair is braided in the back, he wears a long deep blue coat with cowboy boots, he holds a glock

THE DEVIL, BASIC HORNED MURDERER: a buff bald man, wears only black pants, his chest is emblazoned with a red pentagram, he has a short beard, two horns with black ends sit atop his head

THE REPLICANT, DEMENTED SHAPESHIFTER: a woman, seemingly naked though she's entirely in shadow, with only her eyes shining through, one of her arms is in the process of changing, she has long hair draped over her shoulders

THE HIEROPHANT, CANNIBAL POLITICIAN: a young man with brown hair and an eyepatch on the left side of his face, he wears a garish blue suit and red tie, he has black pants, he hides a kitchen knife and holds what appears to be a wine glass full of blood

Kilroy about to axe the Hierophant's stupid head, QU'EST-CE QUE C'EST? emblazoned on a bright red background, Talking Heads' Psycho Killer

Phenomenal! is a sitcom starring an oddly familiar bunch of dysfunctional scientists trying to survive and thrive in a comicy silver age-inspired NYC

I view it as something of a character dynamics sandbox! The Patriots without its geopolitical depth/baggage, just local gags and angst, my favorite!

A screenshot of a discord comment with the statement "Oh my god I just realized no one has ever made an incredibles/fantastic four-esque sitcom show, this is so much money just being sat on" it has an arrow with the words "ACTUAL CREATION" at the top, there are 4 figures, all wearing the same yellow and white jumpsuit with minor modifications between them

DOCTOR PHENOMENAL (RANDALL "RANDY" REED): neurotic scientist with a ton of emotional walls up, powers to stretch and conduct static electrokinesis, he's the tallest figure, brown-haired with something of a cross between a fu manchu mustache and a goatee, his boots notably contain high heels

DANIELLE "DANI" ROSAS: transgender 20 something, grew up in a boarding school before being shipped back to live with her sister, her powers are vague and quantum in nature, she has red hair in a punk style, with one earring on her left ear and a piercing on the right side of her nose, she wears a blue work jacket over her jumpsuit

DOCTOR PHENOMENAL (MILDRED "MILLIE" ROSAS): jaded scientist with a ton of emotional walls up, powers over the classic elements, Dani's older sister and Randy's significant other (they share the title of Dr. Phenomenal), she is the shortest figure, stout and chubby with large hips, she has spikey red hair and two triangular black earrings, unlike her pasty sister, she's brown-skinned

GARY: Randy's best friend and roommate, the family's fun uncle, power of telepathy, a very fat alien humanoid wearing something of a cowboy hat, his jumpsuit has no forearms, his skin is a dark translucent blue with large vein-like structures within, his face has three large pink eyes, with "pupils" that look like yellow swirls that fill the whole eye, his third eye is visible via a hole torn through his brown hat, he has no lips, instead his face is forever in something of a grimace, showing his very large beartrap-esque silver teeth

Though I also have many personal projects! As seen below!

The Patriots is a satirical action comic parodying spy thrillers and superheroes of the Cold War and beyond! Starring a close-knit spec ops trio who find themselves in situations both harrowing and absurd!

(They have a website in my bio!)

A group of 5 figures standing in front of a stylized 69-star American flag

RWB (DEAN MURI): captain of the Patriots, naive but means well, he is blonde with large scar under his right eye, he's wearing something of an America-themed bomber jacket with a blue shirt underneath, he holds an advanced cryopistol outside of its holster, he wears boots with notable high heels

REDFIRE (VERONICA JOHNSON): russian-american accent, snarky technopath, she has poofy red hair that's tied in a bun, goggles on her forehead, she has a beauty mark on her right cheek, her outfit is more garish, being a red-and-white striped ensemble with baggy jeans, she wears a boxy backpack with a small flag coming out the left of it (her left)

PROJECT ONE (LUCY BELL): GWOT-era supersoldier, comedic straight man, she has greying black hair with something of a spartan haircut, she wears two-toned glasses (black and red), her outfit is a very dark purple, entirely armored, with the only America-theme being a red white and blue plate on her chest and red/white tones around her wrists, she has tall boots ending in big circular kneepads, her most notable feature is her skin is a bright yellow, she is the tallest figure

DIRECTOR C (Amadeus Clark): man in the chair, does not have nearly as many secrets as you'd think, a 120+ year old man, he has a surprising amount of grey hair for his age, with a notable cybernetic left eye (it is a jet black sphere with a small white dot in the center), he wears a plain black sweater and jeans, though he has a very long red glove on his right hand that goes up to his forearm, he sits in an advanced treaded wheelchair

DR. JOSSELIN (NIM JOSSELIN): M.A.D. scientist, nerd, he is the only character of a slightly darker complexion, he has an odd haircut with very large opaque glasses, he wears a labcoat and appears to be wearing some kind of tights

4 figures stand in front of an inverted, darkened American flag

COMMIE KING (MIKAEL KRATOWSKI): archnemesis of the Patriots, an annoyingly powerful psychic cyborg, he has a very large build, wearing a long coat, he has a red shirt underneath with a black tie, heavy boots, in place of a head, he has a glowing green dome, holding nothing but the faint outline of a brain and a single cartoon eye, there is a non-diegetic angry eyebrow above the eye

MADAM FAUST (EDA AUSATLANTISCH): an unstable and vengeful clone raised by neo-Nazis, currently a representative for a cryptofascist ring of elites known as the Cocktail Club, she wears a wide brimmed hat with a matching vest, her shirt is red with a large empty white circle in the center, she holds a cane with a similar red/white circle banner wrapped around it, her hair is a dull blonde, she is glaring as the viewer

EMPEROR DOOM (ADIL ALHASSAN): former middle eastern arms manufacturer, now an anti-american agent of high ambitions, his face is unseen, as it's covered by an odd orange robe in the shape of a crown and a red scarf, leaving only a slit for his eyes, the rest of his body is similarly robed, it's very long and drapes past his feet, his hands are visible but they're wrapped in similar red wrappings

CITIZEN TERROR: Doom's sidekick and sole employee, a short man of charred skin, his face is covered by a GP-5 gas mask of blue highlights, two red pupils shine through the mask's eyes, he has flayed hair of indeterminate color, he wears green overalls with large black gloves and boots, a silvery jumpsuit with a dull sheen underneath, his boots also have silver highlights, on the center of his overalls is a large silver plate with Doom's emblem
