Why are you scarce?
Life changes. I'm no longer doing art as a full-time job and I wanted to get off social media more or less indefinitely. You can still follow me via email newsletter (finally going to be sending out some new art) or bookmark my website (not sure yet when I'll get a chance to update it though). You can also email me directly at tachyonart@gmail.com
I'll probably be back when I have something to promote.
Peace!
Logan
New email newsletter goes out in a bit. Sign up if you want to see my art unbound from the algorithm. Also I've been padding it lately with the kind of sketches and stuff I don't always post to socials so there's that too.

The Lagrange Heavy Industries "Journeyman" utility frame was, for decades, a worksite staple. Its low price point, reliability and ease-of-modification made it wildly popular in various industries. Extensive use by insurgent groups, however, severely damaged its reputation. Eventually, its perception as a potential weapon of terror by LHI's clients forced the model's quiet retirement. Successor frames were purpose-built, more difficult to modify, and were often sold with software overrides that allowed corporate agents to shut down frames remotely.
The frame pictured bears the emblem of the radical Earth Orbit Shipbreakers Union, which at one point occupied and collectivized several industrial habitat cylinders before being forcibly broken up by Intrasystem Commerce Authority forces. Although the action failed, it inspired more successful occupations in the further-out belt mining habitats. Journeyman frames featured prominently in both struggles.

Check out Visions Unveiled!
The campaign for Visions Unveiled has officially begun. Back the project on our Kickstarter page here.
VISIONS UNVEILED is a collaborative sci-fi and fantasy artbook featuring the works of five independant artists brought together to fill unique worlds for you to explore. Taking inspiration from the nature catalogues and beastiaries of old Visions Unveiled is 70 pages of rich illustrations and writing that flesh out five unique realms - each one from the mind of a contributing artist.
Each artist has brought to Visions Unveiled a world of their own. Then, in collaboration with each other, every artist has brought their own unique style and perspective to their fellow artist's worlds. In total the artbook contains five lushly realized settings - rich in colour and charm. In total, the artbook features 25 Full Page Illustrations, paired with 25 full pages of original text, alongside an array of smaller artworks and microfiction.
Visions Unveiled is brought to life by a team of five independant artists and illustrators - @crabdominalpain @spacemanmacchiato @quinnred @lil-tachyon and me!
VISIONS UNVEILED provides a view into five unique worlds, each headed by one of the contributing artists; The Entemon, Farmhaven, Fungal Fields, The Swords Grow Wild, and The Vacuum Jungle.

Some doodles from the last couple months. I have a new job that I'm getting used to, so not much time for drawing lately. I'll be back eventually.
Something's coming... keep your eyes peeled.
Hey everybody, go check out @simon-roy 's new book Refugium on Kickstarter! If Simon's reputation on its own somehow isn't enough to convince you to back it, there's a whole mini specbio guidebook with entries from me and like a ton of your other favorite artists probably.
Outlaw ANN1E was an android from the Inner Systems who became notorious for overriding her emergency shutdown protocols and absconding with her body (still listed as stolen property by Albion Networked Neurosynthesis) to the Oort autonomies. For generations she worked as a hired gun for various smuggling operations, pirate FTL transmitters, and iceball communes before eventually fading from the historical record.
