Lee Edwards - Dark Future Skirmish
I do miss this style of painting when there were less fantastical/cartoon elements and more focus on realism with traditional methods. Too much MOBA/isekai slop art nowadays, especially as there’s been a shift to digital and artists aren’t given enough time and money to work on a piece.
This looks like the cover art for a NES game called something like Captain Fury.
Hell yea dude. Those dudes down by the cars are probably called something like Sys-Enforcers or like B.L.O.O.D. Corp or something.
Also I like how eyepatch guy has a chunky Tec9 style smg that has no visible charging handle or ejection port, but it does has a single swivel mount in case you wanna wear your gun like a necklace I guess
it’s a Walther MP, they did forget the ejection port though. sunglasses guy has an ar 18 and the girl has a skorpion
veritable heap of 80s film guns, i adore it
Oh hey that is a skorpion, hell yea
This is just me and my fallout followers
(Im the sexy one)
No i wont tell you which one it is
That doesn’t narrow it down…
Precisely
If the revolution doesn’t look like this then I’m not interested

I think that they are very distinct genres that explore different zeitgeist anxieties prevalent in the eras they emerged from. The (explicit or implicit) state of the wider world isn’t generally explored or relevant in cyberpunk fiction except maybe as a bit of world building flavor.
Cyberpunk’s whole thing is expressing the economic anxieties of the western middle class / petit bourg and creating power fantasies of control in worlds where people are stripped of their agency by extremes of power imbalance and corruption.

“The future is already here its just not evenly distributed.”
People back then saw this stuff and would genuinely get hard over it, lol
We should have a Sybil Danning schlock marathon on the hextube sometime.
I guessed right! GW was way cooler when they did ranges other than WH(the Judge Dredd models they where licensed to make were pretty cool and some were recycled into 40k)
