Minewolf 🐺 🦗🧨 (Novacanis Liquidus Detonare) or Xittocoyotl "Large insectoid canines with a sharp explosion-proof exoskeleton. They carry and produce a blue liquid in their body akin to nitroglycerine which they eject to defend and attack. Whilst solitary they can group together like a wolf pack and excel at hunting.

Thanks to their unmatched sense of smell they’re able to detect hazards early, the odor of mines and other explosives even if in different states of matter, becoming incredibly useful to demine fields after undergoing training and domestication. This species can be avoidant of humans however but once trust is gained they may become loyal companions."

Koki: We need to distract those two! Aviva: Leave it to me. Aviva: Centaurs have six limbs and are, therefore, insects. Discuss. Chris & Martin: Chris & Martin: [Begin arguing] Koki, watching in horror: Oh this, I don't like this at all.

Tempted to make a Tumblr blog where i post stuff but from a bug's perspective. Like saying "OMG GIRL DINNER" and is a bunch of small spiders, or saying "UGHH I'm molting again 🙄🙄" and like a crappy edited image of weird dead exoskeleton skin on the ground.

If I can pick it up without it killing me (stinging, biting, pinching, etc.) then it is no longer scary. GUYS DONT FEAR BUGS !! They are way too cute 😔

Byakhee

A drawing (one of several) of a monster from the Lovecraftian mythos.

A few months ago I started to do some drawings of them and researching the mythos.

Because I was bored.

And ended up doing a … few drawings about it.

Despite not being a big fan of lovecraft I did really get into it this time around.

Still can’t read one of his writings, they suck to read. Listen to is an other story for me.

Regardless a Byakhee is “a predator who travels the vacuum of interstellar space. One could ride a Byakhee to anywhere in the cosmos.” ~quoted/ paraphrased from the fandom wiki.

I got really into the dreamlands and the monsters. After all that’s one of the most interesting parts of his writings.

What else dose he have to offer? intriguing characters? I think not.

Let’s just call it a like-loath relationship. But whatever I got a few drawings from a few month long hyper-fixation.

This little guy was a lot of fun to draw! And I do adore how alien most of his and his associates aliens tend to be!
