map of europa with drawings of my fellow soldiers from back during the ice war
way back when I got promoted to sergeant my captain gave me the company guidebook on europan warfare and all these maps. neither of them were worth anything except as a canvas. thing is, ink and paint freezes in those tunnels, so I drew the other soldiers all in pencil. I've been going through these old sketches from my time on the ice and thinking I might share some of them, so I'll have a few more for you soon, because the ice was hell and this was the only thing that made it gentler

upon morning reflection I've decided the ice looks decent and the helmet looks kinda sick but I failed to convey the cosmic horror of the watchful eye of jove. but I think that's because no earthly medium can capture jove's pitiless face, and certainly not the crude colors of a veteran like me
we honor our fallen comrades beneath jove's unblinking eye
