I Have Now Successfully Photographed Jonny Without Ending Up With Another Missing Limb. Now Since I Now

I have now successfully photographed jonny without ending up with another missing limb. Now since I now have a photograph I can explain a bit about where he comes from and his biology.

Jonny is a humanoid species of alien which convergently evolved to be similar to humans like much of the Mechanisms. While the name of his species can’t quite be spelt in English, I will do my best: frwringrit.

These creatures evolved to survive in an asteroid belt which was barely habitable, as such they are extremophiles. This means jonny can survive in very low oxygen environments and is adept at moving in low gravity.

If we are to look at his internal structure, he has a much more complicated respiratory system than humans, capable of diffusing not only oxygen, but several other elements aswell. When you don’t know what kind of atmosphere you’ll get, it’s useful to be able to use different chemical reactions to get your energy.

Frwringits are opertunistic feeders, who will even eat eachother if especially hungry and/or don’t like the person. This was made illegal in most places around the belt after they managed to get consistent food up and running, but some regions it’s still very much legal. Those are Jonny’s favorite regions.

Due to living in low atmosphere, frwringits don’t usually like high atmosphere environments as it gives them headaches from the pressure and way too much air in their lungs, but after a millennia of living on the Aurora jonny has managed to adapt. Still, he does prefer low atmosphere over high atmosphere any day.

Anyway tune in next time for: thoth gets way into infodumping alien biology and worlds

Behold thy height chart fool

I shall be reposting updates as I go

Also y’all… I tried to get them to stand still but they just would not cooperate. Jonny keeps trying to bite me because he insists he’s taller than Marius (this is made worse by Marius teasing him about it), Ivy insisted she had a book or she wouldn’t participate, Nastya wanted the Aurora in the picture but how am I supposed to fit a spaceship inside of my little building? Gunpowder Tim brought bombs into my room full of expensive camera equipment, and I had to rush over after taking the picture to put out the fuse on the dynamite he was trying to balance on Nastya’s head. Raphaella was very difficult to pry from her lab, I had to get Jonny to shoot her so we could drag her into the studio. Anyway at least Ashes, Brian, The Toy Soldier, and Lyfrassir didn’t get too under my skin. I do hope they remain cooperative in the future.

Hehe teef. Maybe they just have an abundance of extra teeth sitting their under their gums?

Make sure to stay hydrated! Here’s a cup that definitely doesn’t have teeth in it!

Mmm teeth cup delicious thank you

Side note this reminded me of my favorite dragon from the how to train your dragon tv serieses: the grim gnasher

Instead of breathing fire, they spit out their own teeth as an attack. I don't know how they grow them back so fast.

Fed Up.

Without shading + reference image:

I kinda hate how people keep accusing actual artists of AI art without analysing every tiny bit of evidence.

‘that hand looks weird so it must be ai.’

Ok? Hands are hard to draw. Don’t use weird looking hands as your thesus on why someone’s art is ai.

‘Looks like ai”

Ok but do you see any evidence of that? The ai had to copy someone, of course there will be artists with art styles that look like AI.

In our efforts to spread awareness a lot of people are hurting real artists in the process. Is the amount of actual ai we expose worth the amount of artists we invalidate and shun? I don’t know, but this is definitely a problem. Maybe this isn’t the path forward?

I personally feel like it would be better if we choose different ways to prevent people from claiming AI art as their own moving forwards.

I love horror when it’s beautiful.

When what you look at is horrific and terrifying, but beneath that there is beauty.

I want the cosmic being staring at me so deeply with all of its hundred of thousands of eyes to be ethereal and filled with colors a mind cannot comprehend. For its beauty to be a horror all on its own, one that drives you into an obsessed madness, trying to recreate the beauty you saw that day. But you can never recreate it. You cannot capture this no matter your skill and no matter how hard you try.

I want the mounds of flesh and sinew to be crafted elegantly into a grotesque mosaic which as disgusting and putrid as it is, could be seen as beautiful. Not by all but to a certain kind of eye perhaps it could better than Picasso. They do say beauty is in the eye of the beholder after all.

I want characters who are driven to transform themselves into beings so beautiful they become god-like solely due to the flesh they rended from their bones, replaced with mounds of mud, sculpted into finely crafted art.

I want my horror to be beautiful.
