Similarly to this, does anyone else remembers the old "concept" art blogs? They were focused on mechanical designs instead of fantasy themes, but they served a similar and excellent source of inspiration. There were blogs for robots, ships, vehicles, tanks... I miss them a lot. The last post on conceptrobots was in 2019.

I remember seeing a couple of these back in the day but I can't remember any of their names anymore
You wouldn't happen to have a list of some of these old blogs would you?
I have a few still bookmarked on my browser. Most of their old content is still there, too.

I'm waiting for people to start the more specialized art subs...
If I only get my sub up and running I can share 4TB storage for drawings and stuff ( no promise :-)
I'm a huge Moebius and general crazy european comics from the -70/-80/-90 fan, and would love to gather like-minded people.
If I succeed in spinning it up it will be on lemmy.mindoki.com βΊοΈ but there is more to it than the tech (moderation, how do you even show people it exist without being obnoxious etc etc) so we'll see!
Interesting times for sure :-)
I made !psychedelic_artwork@psychedelia.ink. It's not quite what you mean and it's not super active yet though.
I donβt know. But I hope so.!
