Art From Others - Tumblr Posts
Summer is a really sad period for me, since I became older when it comes, and al the memories from the past comes through
when spiders put their little pedipalps together
that meme. you know
(Read Phantomarine!)
Does anyone know the artist? I would like 1000 of these to remind people.

I hate that I’m always trying to find cool biology themed stuff to wear but all the “nature inspired” clothing companies just have like two crossed arrows or a minimalistic mountain on a sweatshirt. Fucking lame, that’s barely even nature-adjacent. Put the life cycle of a salamander on a jacket, put hyena skeleton patterns on leggings, put a damn field guide of birds of prey on a peacoat and THEN you can have my money. Do NOT give me a shirt with a leaf on it that says “stay wild” or some bullshit I would much prefer clothing that broadcasts to everyone around me how many teeth an adult Jaguar has or how some pitcher plants can catch and digest rats.
A new viewpoint on antlers reveals the evolutionary history of deer (Cervidae, Mammalia)
fullview recommended!
something i've wanted to do for a while now. i've scoured the internet for something like this and can't find anything that compares all the different types of antlers together. except one recent study on their evolution, which is also very interesting on its own! i simplified it to provide a visual reference, while still trying to be scientifically accurate. some things differ between this and trophy scoring terminology like where the beam is and whatnot, so if something looks weird that's why.
small additional note, this study and others provide a lot of evidence that eld's deer should be in their own genus as it doesn't appear similar enough to barasingha and schomburgk's deer. however this doesn't seem to be adapted anywhere yet, so they're still in Rucervus for this guide.

Having used prosthetic legs since birth, Billie adapted to utilizing the experimental heavy cargo frame better than the rest of the Big Bug's Ranger Crew. This allows for carrying the batteries required for the mass driver weapons needed to defend against large wild mecha.
Low-level Dungeons & Dragons adventure where one of those big goofy skywhale things has died and crash-landed in the middle of town, and what initially appears to be a simple cleanup assignment abruptly takes a combat-heavy turn when the party gets to find out what feeds on skywhalefalls.
Warm up sketches of Domino 2 from Amphibia.
Another thing I pulled out of my ancient drafts, weird porpoises type critters
that peeled Jamis (lol thank you for showing us this) work-in-progress you posted... do you do the inking traditionally? that's so cool! :D
yeah!! i sketch with non-photo blue pencils that don't show up on scanner, and then i ink on top of that with kuretake black ink.
it looks fancy but this is THE cheapest way of doing comics, since i draw on paper i use a looot of ink and this stuff lasts a long time! i used to ink with markers but it got really expensive in the end. also with dip pen nibs you get wonderful variation on the line, unlike with markers so i heartily recommend it to everyone! i started drawing tigers with wooden pencils, then i switched to markers and finally to ink and i cannot emphasize how good the ink is compared to every other medium.
This octopus candle holder that my sister hand made in a pottery studio.
