Hello there!

I'm Scott, the creator and driving force behind Of Oil and Iron. As a passionate gamer, painter and enthusiast of industrial science fiction, I've always been drawn to immersive and engaging game experiences and worldbuilding in the genre.

With Of Oil and Iron, I've combined my love for wargaming and miniature painting with my fascination for dieselpunk aesthetics and mecha. I draw inspiration from various sources, including classic tabletop games, science fiction novels, and industrial history. Some of my notable favourites are Jakub Rozalski’s work with Scythe and Iron Harvest, Simon Stalenhag, Hawken, MechWarrior and Titanfall.

My goal is to bring this rich and grimdark world to life, offering players an opportunity to immerse themselves in cinematic skirmishes, compelling storytelling - and of course the miniature modelling and painting hobby. From designing intricate Rigs to shaping the narrative of the Smoglands, every aspect of Of Oil and Iron has been carefully crafted to deliver a unique dieselpunk and mecha experience.

Thank you for your support, and I look forward to sharing this adventure with you.
