a couple of wildlife sculptures i made as gifts to my professors now that im graduating. id never made a fish before but now that i have i need to make more!
Finally, it has begun!! The rainbow trout are all grown and it’s time to give them a little spin in the swimming respirometer. This girl was understandably pretty shocked about being measured and weighed but she quickly recovered once in the respirometer — the fish is swimming against a certain water flow (here it’s about half a body length per second) and she seemed to immediately realise what to do. My supervisor explained that in earlier experiments with brown trout, the brown trout were more prone to not swimming at all and laying on the net in the back, but rainbow trout are more cooperative and raring to go!
to the tune of harry styles' sweet creature: sea creatures...
some cleaned up sketches from my dedicated class doodles area. the melon of a beluga brings me intense joy i highly recommend drawing a beluga
[id: stylized drawings of a sperm whale, belugas, a dolphin, a rainbow trout, a shark, a goldfish, and an eel. in the background and blank spaces are colourful sea stars. end id.]
some fish I have crafted with my digital tools.... for an upcoming project called Fishy Fiesta!!!
I'm working with @/Hecco and @/Yirmiris on twitter to make a mod that adds a bunch more ocean life to your worlds, as well as overhauling fishing to be more rewarding and fun!!
[ID: Two photos of digitally illustrated bumper stickers. The first is of the stickers on a brown car, and the second is of the three designs arranged vertically. One sticker is rainbow with a calico cat and reads "I AM GOING TO CAUSE PROBLEMS ON PURPOSE". One is black and yellow with an opossum in the middle, and reads "CAUTION: I WILL BRAKE FOR CRITTERS". One is pale blue patterned with a rainbow trout and reads "FISH WANT ME". End.]
Printed some bumper stickers I've been dreaming about for a while 👀 planning a shop update soon but in the meantime, here's some weird new animals on my car !!
