Not sci-fi per se but kind of fun, thought you might appreciate. Inspired by this funky lining pattern in an 80s-early 90s leather jacket my friend Leah found. I thought I'd try to replicate the style and try and create more icons inspired by tech and stuff from after the era. Feels like it fits with my other retrofuturistic/nostalgic pieces on here. The issue with that is a lot of that is just slabs, so... I gotta figure out what to do about that.
Yeah, I'm gonna keep my eyes open for things that might suit this design. Thinking my next approach (since this was just to ape the style) will be heavy pencils and more concepting for things before I put them in this style.
I think an issue I might have is I don't have a lot of ephemera lying around to turn into stylish icons.
Okay, wound up having an evening with nothing to do, SO here are some of my sketches in the vein of the previous one.
I'm surprised how well the Dyson suits this 90s art style... the Talkboy also feels like a natural, but I'm not sure how I feel about that big thick stripe. I want to try another crack at that Bose since those were everywhere, but I haven't cracked it yet.

You could always just say they're alien hieroglyphics. Nobody can refute that because they're alien and it makes it Sci-Fi.
