Weirdly Specific Artist Ask Game: 8, 20, 30

Thanks!

8. What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in

Pyramid. It was a little one shot comic I was doing between projects about an alien bug and an interdimensional telemarketer. I thought the premise was fun, but now that I have Going to Weather I don’t imagine I’ll ever finish Pyramid. I find comics absolute Hell to work on if they’re not something I’m completely obsessed with. Especially if they’re in full color and have a main character that has 6 hands. Many apologies to anyone hoping it’d come back…

20. Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy

Not ‘hard’ to draw, but I feel like I see people complain about doing line art a lot. I love doing lines. They’re the only thing that matters. They’re the most fun part of any project for me.

30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated

This werewolf has…more notes than my original art tends to get but still……please clap….I drew so many lines….there is no solid black….it was all one nib…

Also everyone read my comic……it’s better than my tma fanart…

The Sims is love. List 5 facts about a favorite sim couple of yours, and why you love them so much. Then pass this on to 5 others, whose sim couple(s) you also love. 💘💕 :D

Bubby + Riot 🩷

• Bubby was cuddled and loved a lot by her mom as a child so it's extended into her love language, she's a big hugger and shows tons of physical affection towards the people she cares about; Riot will take advantage of this and spend literal hours cuddling her with soft kisses and gentle pets.

• Riot grew up pampered and bratty so when he met Bubby he had no idea how to accommodate someone with autism. It was difficult for him to break out of that selfishness and learn how to care for someone else. Now if Bubby has a meltdown or is suffering through a difficulty because of her autism he's the first person to notice and help guide her through it.

• Most days these two are pretty chaotic and spend a lot of time fighting and making fun of each other. Riot's favorite nickname for Bubby: goblin or goblinfish, Bubby's favorite nickname for Riot: cabbage or cabbage head

• Because she's fluent in both Korean and English, Bubby mixes the two up when she speaks, often saying full sentences of Korean before realizing the person she's speaking to can't understand. Riot learned Korean in order to understand her better.

The local fish store had Butterfly Gobies for sale! A first for me to see. These brackish-to-saltwater fish are actually scorpionfish, not gobies, and are more closely related to Lionfish. Neat animals!

filament-finned stinger (Inimicus filamentosus) by tbanny The filament-finned stinger, also known as barred ghoul, two-stick stingfish, or devil scorpionfish, is a member of the Inimicus genus of venomous fishes. It is a member of the Synanceiidae (devilfishes, goblinfishes, and stonefishes) family of the Scorpaeniformes order of ray-finned fishes. These benthic fishes are found on sandy or silty substrates of lagoon and seaward reefs, in coastal regions of tropical oceans. Like all the other known species of Inimicus, I. filamentosus is a demersal ambush predator. They are nocturnal, and often dig themselves partially into the sandy seabed during the day. [Wikipedia]

The devil scorpionfish, or goblin fish, (Inimicus) is a highly venomous ambush predator. Spending the majority of it's time lying in wait for prey on the seafloor, it has adapted to use the four lower rays of its pectoral fins as legs. Using sub-carangiform locomotion, it walks along the seafloor searching for spots to wait for prey. #travel #funfacts #scuba #scubadiving #diving #underwaterphotography #uw #uwphotography #underwater #scubadive #girlsthatscuba #dive #uwphoto #scubaphoto #diver #scubadivers #marinebiology #underwaterpics #indonesia #lembeh #devil #scorpionfish #goblinfish #inimicus #missinglink https://www.instagram.com/p/BxmibtHBuEH/?igshid=1g9az0qg8if75

Melbourne’s Pier Pleasures

Melbourne has some of the keenest divers in Australia. Each weekend sees hundreds of local divers heading out on boats to explore spectacular shipwrecks and very colourful temperate reefs. But many Melbourne divers never venture onto a boat as Melbourne shore diving is some of the best in Australia, exploring Melbourne’s brilliant piers.

Pier diving is a very popular activity in Melbourne, and with dozens of piers found scattered around the shore of the spectacular Port Phillip Bay there is always somewhere to dive. But for me the best pier dives are found on the Mornington Peninsula, about an hour and a half drive from Melbourne city.

The closest pier to Melbourne is Mornington Pier, which can be an average day dive, but comes alive at night when the cephalopods emerge. Depths under this pier get no deeper than 7m, allowing for a long bottom time to admire all the critters.

Divers typically encounter big-belly seahorses, shrimps, globefish, goatfish, cardinalfish, scorpionfish and dragonets. Also expect to see countless sea stars, which are a feature of Melbourne diving, especially huge eleven-arm sea stars.

A special highlight of this pier, and all Melbourne piers, are the cephalopods. Many people head to muck sites in Southeast Asia to see cephalopods, when in fact the world’s largest variety of octopus, squid and cuttlefish are found in Australia’s southern waters, and most are found nowhere else in the world. Commonly seen at night are giant cuttlefish, southern calamari squid, southern keeled octopus and highly venomous southern blue-ringed octopus. But divers might also see giant Maori octopus, southern sand octopus, southern dumpling squid and strange southern white-spot octopus.

Heading south, the next pier pleasure is Rye Pier. The clean sandy bottom around Rye Pier is often a good place to see small stingarees, huge smooth stingrays and angel sharks. With a maximum depth of 5m, Rye Pier is also a good location to see big-belly seahorses, the largest seahorse species in Australia.

Abundant fish reside under the pier, including flatheads, leatherjackets, morwongs and wrasse, which in-turn attracts the attention of hungry shags. It is quite a sight watching these sea birds swimming underwater between the pylons looking for a meal. Rye Pier is also visited by fur seals and the occasional dolphin.

The most distant pier from Melbourne is at Portsea and its unique attraction are weedy seadragons. A nearby kelp covered reef is the best place to encounter the dragons, but they are also common under the pier. Going no deeper than 6m divers will encounter magpie morwong, stingrays, leatherjackets, sea stars, crabs, hermit crabs, nudibranchs, brittle stars and pretty weedfish. Portsea Pier is also the best place to see one of Australia’s most bizarre fish, the goblinfish.

Halfway between Portsea and Rye is Melbourne’s newest pier and hottest dive site, Blairgowrie Pier. This pier is a favourite of underwater photographers as it plays host to a wonderful range of marine life. The pylons of this pier are completely covered in colourful sponges, ascidians, algae and kelp, plus home to shrimps, crabs, sea stars, tube worms, scallops and a large variety of nudibranchs.

Exploring the pier divers will find big-belly seahorses, short-head seahorses, octopus, spider crabs, stingarees, cuttlefish, pipefish, dragonets, southern fiddler rays, smooth stingrays, flatheads and numerous reef fish. My favourites are the cute Shaw’s cowfish that have their lips permanently puckered like they are looking for someone to kiss. The pier is also a brilliant night dive and under torch light divers will see numerous squid and octopus, and sometimes stargazers and skates.

One of the main attractions at Blairgowrie Pier is a weird endemic fish, the tasselled frogfish. Only found in southern Australia, a number of tasselled frogfish reside on the pylons at Blairgowrie, but with their elaborate camouflage they are very difficult to find.

Melbourne’s piers can be dived year round. However, summer and autumn is generally the best time as the warmer water temperature sees an influx of marine life. Water temperatures in Port Phillip Bay vary from 20°C to a chilly 8°C, while the visibility averages 6m to 10m, but can be over 15m at times.

Diving Melbourne’s piers is a pure pleasure and a great way to encounter a wide variety of rare and unique Aussie critters.

How do religious people reconcile their belief in the existence of a benevolent creator god with the occurrence of natural disasters? via /r/atheism

Submitted October 12, 2017 at 02:57PM by goblinfish (Via reddit http://ift.tt/2yiL60x) How do religious people reconcile their belief in the existence of a benevolent creator god with the occurrence of natural disasters?

Natural disasters have been hitting earth since its formation. Many times, they kill thousands of innocent people, many of whom are religious. I, like Neil DeGrasse Tyson, look at that and think, 'This is not a world that a benevolent god presides over.' Why would such a god allow or even design the ongoing occurrence of these chaotic natural events that kill thousands of people for no reason? I have yet to hear a convincing answer to this from a religious apologist.

June 8th is World Oceans Day, and to celebrate we present some beautiful illustrations of fish from  Voyage autour du monde : exécuté par ordre du roi, sur la corvette de Sa Majesté, la Coquille, pendant les années 1822, 1823, 1824, et 1825. If you read the captions, this is another great example of the change of scientific names over time.

There are plenty of activities and celebrations planned all over the world. For even more on our oceans,the National Museum of Natural History's Ocean Portal is highly recommended.

Variously known as the Demon Stinger... Goblinfish... Ghoul...

This wonderful fish takes all the best bits of relatives like Stonefish, Sea Robins and Lionfish and melds them all together into a concentrated mass of ugliness, perversity and evil.

I adore them from their venomous dorsal spines to their nasty little walking fingers.

If only they could talk! Just think of the wonderful threats...

Devil Scorpionfish (Inimicus didactylus) by detierraysal Malaysia 2012. This little guy is a master of camouflage. It remains half-buried in the sand waiting for prey so you have to remember the rule of never leaning on the seabed. It is an animal with a powerful poison and its sting is very painful, being able to become mortal for humans. One curiosity is that this fish walks on the seabed thanks to the last rays of its fins, which are independent and articulated. Also known as Stingfishes, Sea Goblins, Devilfishes, Demon Stinger, Demon Stinger Scorpionfish, Devil Stinger, Spiny Devilfish, Devil Stinger Scorpionfish, Demon Rockfish, Demon Goblinfish, Popeyed Sea Goblin, Bearded Ghoul, Bearded Ghoul Fish, Indian Walkman, Red Sea Walkman.
