this manatee looks like it’s in a skyrim loading screen
#lol good luck finding all of the photoshopped versions in the rb history. ‘manatee restored’ is still my favorite of all time#misc#I encourage anyone dyslexic to try rotating him in your mind. I can’t do that; which is why I’m asking you to.#also: a bunch of tags are surprised this isn’t ‘shopped#it’s the lighting. backlit by the sun (which is diffused through the water) but also forelit artificially#the artificial light - a flash pack or something - casts a hard shadow under the creatures arm#which normally wouldn’t be possible if backlit by the SUN; you’d see a less-hard/more-fragmented shadow above water#as light sources ‘compete’ in a sense - and since there aren’t any light sources which can outshine the literal sun#it looks a bit weird when the darkest shadow is being cast from any other origin point - which is what’s essentially happening here#I don’t know the mechanics of how light travels through water; but I know the effect is substantial even with relatively short distances#also: it’s been balanced and color corrected by the author of the photo - who made deliberate choices to bring out the full potential#so it’s not like it’s a fresh and untouched export#but the kind of ‘tacked on’ appearance of the creature is a result of the lighting conditions within the image

some designs for tusken era boba :)
unarmored/pre krayt hunt armored/post krayt hunt
alternative lighting style and flat colors
#star wars#boba fett#tbobf#book of boba fett#tusken raiders#tusken#redbean art#sw au#<- maybe?#in which the tribe doesnt get killed bc they were off on a krayt hunting trip when cad bane/pykes arrived#the krayt hunt in question is the same one din cobb and dins tusken friends were on#that is also how boba got his armor back#he showed up to help w the hunt; saw cobb in the background; and promptly tackled the guy to get his stuff back#the red fabric on his pre krayt mask mimics the visor paint#the visor and filter are based off his early krayts claw helmet#the belt plates are engraved with jasters jp and mandalor sigils#partially in remembrance and partially so he doesnt end up looking like maul's death watch/shadow collective commandos lol#the shoulder teeth (arranged like his wookiee braids) are from the six legged sand creature he killed#because i think the tuskens would be very supportive of his monster tooth collecting hobby from that one comic#post krayt he gets to keep a krayt tooth but it doesnt fit on his belt so he keeps it in his tent or something#in the post krayt design most of his armor is layered between the inner and outer robes#he gets more souvenir teeth arranged like the tusken mentors belt beads#couldnt decide whether to leave the tusken horns on or off post krayt#but i couldnt figure out a good way to adhere them to the helmet without blocking the rangefinder rotation or having to glue them#so no tusken horns for the post krayt design

My OC Lehti when he was a child and his adoptive mom, Pomi!
As I explained in this post, Lehti is ostracised by humans and they've been trying to kill him ever since he was born. Pomi found him in a box of plants she ordered and decided to keep him.
More rambling about my ocs teehee
To add more details about Lehti's origins, we actually know who his bio parents are in the story! It's not a mystery at all.
They are pretty "famous" as they are two big religious figures for the humans. However, when Lehti was born, due to his weird appearance, he was assimilated to a demon and was supposed to be killed right away. His bio mom ran away to protect him but was eventually found a few years later, without her child. She was quickly executed for birthing and protecting a demon.
Ik it's very "Kung-Fu Panda"-esque but in his case his bio father is the one who's trying to kill him so yeah?? Hardcore daddy issues.
When Pomi found him in her plant box, she quickly understood who he was, the execution of his bio mom was making the headlines everywhere. She never wanted to be a mom but if she gave him away to an orphanage he would end up in the system and be found by the humans pretty quickly. She felt like she had no other choice but to keep him.
She'll become a very dedicated mother over time!
#nouverx ocs#my ocs#autodesk sketchbook#sketches#pomi#lehti#child Lehti is the easiest creature to draw ever lmao#both child lehti and pomi are very easy I love doodling them#im slowly getting more tempted to just straight up start drawing a comic about Lehti's story#its a story ive been rotating in my head for quite some time now

Rotating her in my mind.
#pikmin#pikmin 4#gif#bulborb#i check for updates on the english pikmin comic about every other day#and i just now noticed that they're also translating the piklopedia#on the japanese site#you can rotate the creatures at your leisure#and even get aerial and bottom views#on the english site it just plays a 'video' of the creatures rotating like this and you can't change the angle#much like with the comic the english site is very behind with the creature profiles#there aren't even any arachnorbs up there#but they do have the waterwraith for some reason#i dunno. i just figured that would be one they'd want to keep secret for a while longer#but it was nerfed in pikmin 4 anyway so it's really not that menacing anymore i guess

Coloured Doodles from September 28th-29th, 2024 So uh... do y'all ever just make things that are conceptually incomprehensible to all but one person? Well xD My buddy @eleanorose123 just finished her rewatch of Yugioh GX recently and I've been privy to much of the ridiculous experience along the way, so all of these were made exclusively for her, but then she asked if I was going to upload any of them sooooo here you go I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I really enjoy interpreting human characters as animals and vice versa, it's easily one of my favourite aspects of being a character designer in general, and Yugioh character designs specifically give me a lot to work with in that regard, so here's the Saiou Creature Saga™ featuring Edo and Judai (of varying degrees of effort lol, sorry I'm very tired) I don't go here myself but I had a ton of fun so... enjoy? xD
#the irony of me posting this right after vent art is not lost on me but#trust me i needed to draw the sillies to survive this week so#here you go#saiou is like a creature to me#i just think he's neat :]#i am rotating him in my mind#art#artists on tumblr#fan art#yugioh#pokemon#sillies#doodles#i'm not doing all the character tags sorry lmao

I love that weird two-headed alien thing in Anakt Garden so much and especially that pic of ivan resting in its jaw. I know the picture isn't intended to be cute but when I see it I just think of when mother crocodiles scoop up their babies in their mouths to carry them. Ivan was that things little buddy
I do too! It’s one of my favorite pieces of official art. They just look so cute!! I love that you called Ivan the wagyein’s little buddy 🥹
You’re right about mother crocodiles, I never thought of it that way before. Maybe the wagyein saw Ivan as its baby? Or rather, something that needed its protection?
Another thing I love is how there are so many ways to interpret what the picture means.
Perhaps we’re meant to focus on the similarities between the two: red eyes, prominent teeth/tooth, obedient, monstrous (the wagyein literally and Ivan metaphorically).
Or it could be Ivan symbolically surrendering to the ugly parts of his inner self.
I like to think the picture shows an understanding between them.
They are both odd and somewhat solitary creatures, misunderstood by others. There are ugly parts in each of them that they can’t hide. But they find comfort in one another.
Ivan, resting in the wagyein’s mouth surrounded by all of its teeth, is extremely vulnerable; which we rarely if ever see him be at any other time in the series. The wagyein is also vulnerable to any attack beyond its teeth, throat, etc.
The fact that Ivan isn’t afraid of getting torn to shreds by the beast and the wagyein let Ivan so close suggests that there’s a level of mutual trust as well.
I wonder how Ivan felt when he gained the wagyein’s trust.
We know he struggled to connect with his classmates. Did he feel further ostracized when he had an easier time connecting to some sort of alien creature than other humans?
Did he see too many of his own features in the wagyein (red eyes, sharp teeth, and so on) to even think he was as human as the other children?
Maybe that’s where the idea of Ivan as a monster came from.
I firmly believe the similarities between the two were intentional.
#i am once again yapping about ivan#i have so many thoughts about him and this creature#did he name the wagyein? did he see it often? did it ever come looking for him? is it still around somewhere?#does ivan feel a connection to all wagyeins or just this one specifically?#crack theory: was ivan subjected to experiments involving wagyeins in some way?#i think i should rotate ivan in my head a bit more#alien stage#alnst#alien stage ivan#alnst ivan#ivan alien stage#ivan alnst#alnst round 6#alien stage round 6#ivanttakethis answers#ivanttakethis shut up about ivan challenge: impossible#ivanttakethis talks too much

Clementine (Star Summit)
Pronouns: She/Her, She/They
Age: Mid-Late 40s
Height: 4'5" (135cm)
Characteristics: Boisterous, small, and strong.
Put my depot agent in the blender and repurposed her into a fan oc for the universe of an in-development indie game made by the ever lovely @fronomeeps. Please support them and check out the progress on their game dev blog!
Clementine is a member of the security staff at Emerson's station. She's a social outcast amongst her own species, so the station has become home for her, and her coworkers family. She protects these things with her life, and takes her job and the safety of others very seriously (she is less good about taking care of herself).
Her bigass ears means that she knows Everything™ that happens in the station, for better or for worse. She's great at keeping secrets though, and only discusses the things she overhears with Emerson and Caelum.
A small creature with so many very big emotions she keeps bottled up. I am constantly rotating her in my brain at rapid speeds.
#star summit#jenaarts#jenaocs#furry#expect More art of her now that the bat's out of the bag#I enjoy all these space creatures we've made very much#rotating star summit and the old men in my mind forever

*gnawing at the bars of my enclosure over the parallels between Darry and Ponyboy's relationship in The Outsiders and Siegfried and Tristan's relationship in All Creatures Great & Small*
#original post#The Outsiders#All Creatures Great and Small#Darry Curtis#Ponyboy Curtis#Siegfried Farnon#Tristan Farnon#guess who's watching a new show#(and it actually is relatively new for once)#just finished season 3 tonight#I've got about a week to watch season 4 before we're going to the local PBS station to see the first episode of season 5#this show is absolutely brilliant and I cannot wait to be caught up so I can dive into the tag and start reblogging things#stay tuned because I've got a few other thoughts rotating around in my mind that I might or might not post on their own#(or later in the tags of relevant gifsets)#obviously though my first post about the show had to be about The Outsiders
