Update: I Can Confirm That Eternatus' Horn Membrane Is Elastic.

Update: I can confirm that eternatus' horn membrane is elastic.

So I've been studying eternatus' anatomy and realized a few things:

1) the clear walls between the ribs are definitely an elastic membrane, would probably feel a bit like latex to the touch. (Realized this bc the membrane isn't flat like it would be if it was crystalline, it is concave like fabric pulled over a frame). This brings up a question about the membrane connecting its horns. I always thought they were the same.... tissue? substance? But the horn membrane looks more rigid.

2) there are freaking divots in its spine???? How the heck haven't I noticed that before?

3) the way its back spikes line up when it's moving makes me think it used to have a membrane connecting them, a little similar to spinosaurus.

4) the way it moves reminds me of aquatic mammals... now I have the image of eternatus with fins, flippers, and a whale tail...

5) eternatus is far more heavily based off of eastern long dragons than western dragons. This brings the long whip like structures on its shoulders further into question... just what are they?

6) eternatus' back legs actually make slightly more sense knowing that it is an eastern dragon, some traditional art of long dragons have similar hind legs.

7) those strange whip like structures on eternatus' shoulders... I still don't know what they are. When I first saw eternatus I thought that they were wings. But after watching eternatus move in camp I'm not so sure. They don't move like wings would, they act more like tendrils.

Also the way it moves its head makes it look like it's super curious and that's frigging adorable.

hey so like you know the (very talented and creative) person who made you welcome back art? can i... can I do that? like.... a comic or something for your trainersona? idk it sounds fun and I like drawing Trainer D—

HGBFHGRNHFNBHBRBHDBHDBHDHDBBH O OOO O OF FUCKIGNGH COURSE MY DUD DE WHWHGWH IM HONOURED ENOUGH THAT ANYONE WOULD FUCKING DR AW FOR ME WHWWHFJGASD

So I was looking through my art I made before I joined tumblr and remembered my ultimate masterpiece:

"You've met with a terrible goose, haven't you?"

Or

"It's a lovely morning in Termina, and you are a horrible mask."

OMG I LOVE YOUR ART STYLE IT'S SO CUTE UWU

Sorry about cheesecake, he’s an idiot

Shout out to that time I drew reconstructed versions of the Galar fossil 'mons. These were made a few months ago. I was indecisive on what to do with arcto's design so I ended up making two.

Ah yes, the common conundrum of wanting to eat my instant lunch ramen cup but knowing the moment I opened the packet my pup will start begging incessantly.
