I've had enough of this leech stealing mine and other peoples' art so here's a little info post on @thefluffyrailwayhumanslogos

They're a known art thief, tracer, and general gross person who specifically targets the monster engines corner of the TTTE fandom, stealing and tracing art from myself, @steam-beasts , @thefluffyrailway-official , and @sketch-pencilpoint , likely among others.

Examples under the cut:

First off, this person traced the bodies from some Seren and Trelar art, and also made a shitty edit of Edgar's ref

Steam-Beasts has also been a frequent target, HumansLogos has traced both their James's and Thomas's bodies

TheFluffyRailway arguably gets it the worst, this thief has stolen and traced so much of their stuff. A recent example is this

And Sketch-Pencilpoint's monster engine body ref has also been heavily used by HumansLogos, another recent example:

They've also just posted a ton of unsavoury stuff, lots of which includes canonically child characters, so I encourage everyone to just ignore and block. Though rn tumblr blocking seems to be broken, as the thief can still reblog my stuff even though I have them blocked :/

@sketch-pencilpoint @/notsozenzeneth [Cracks Knuckles] you two gave me an inch and now I'm going a mile

OK so off the bat when I started thinking "what would a train look like if it was a biological organism" I turned to the obvious that was crustaceans, with lobsters in particular what with their multiple legs (in place of wheels), armored bodies, and the way said legs look when they move

I wanted to keep it as realistic as possible, so instead of mammals, I immediately thought of these guys, which then quickly diverted me to insects, specifically millipedes

So we have a general basis for how a biological engine should look, but now comes the issues of wheels; while we have animals that roll their entire body as a form of locomotion (e.g. armadillo) or roll things (e.g. dung beetle), we have no critter that could be said to have wheels in place of legs in the taxonomic domain eukarya. Ergo, I decided to take a page out of Nintendo's book and turn towards making train wheels into skin patterns that would go on the train's feet.

Enter the humble caterpillar

Barring the first couple set of legs, you'll notice the "feet" of a caterpillar are rather round; that's because they're more like little suction cups that help them stick to the surface of things; what I'm getting at is that train "wheels" would instead be more like these suction cup feet that are patterned in such a way that resemble said wheels.

I want to quickly give a shout out to @theflyingkipper for this next point as their monster engine series introduced to me the concept of turning the funnel of trains into blowholes that release steam. I thought it was a very clever design, but I realize it could be taken a step further if we consider the funnel to be a horn; more specifically, I thought about the parasaurolophus

A thing to make note is that these guys' iconic horns were thought to act as an amplifier for their calls; I figured the same could be applied to trains, boiling down to 2 possibilities:

The blowhole is placed either in front of or in back of the horn, thus creating the illusion of a steam-blowing funnel

The funnel itself has the nostrils on the end like a trunk shaped horn, thus housing another airway aside from the mouth where steam is released

This brings us to the topic of steam and feel source; as much as I find the idea of flesh-eating trains fun, I do think realistically, their diet would be the same as the fuel used to light their fires. I think of how some of the largest animals on earth are primarily herbivores (or in the case of the whale, filter feeders) and how even if they don't eat meat, that doesn't make them any less frightening that say a tiger or wolf.

Henceforth, I like the thought of living trains grazing on grass and being fed coal by their drivers and firemen, but it bets the question: how do they get nutrients? Initially I thought they'd be literal gastroliths and actually eat the coal they're given, but given how most stones are consumed half of the time to aide in digestion rather than be digested themselves, I figured perhaps something else could be at play.

Enter the volcanic snail

These little guys are amazing because they are found in hydrothermal vents, aka underwater volcanoes. They were actually one of the first guys I thought of with train armor because their foot and shell contain iron, which I think makes for a fun comparison of biological organisms and engines with steel bodies. But back to my initial point, these guys are chemoautotrophs, aka organisms that get their nutrients from chemical reactions through a process called chemosynthesis. Ergo, it wouldn't be entirely unrealistic for engines to technically get nutrients from steam itself rather than what produces the steam, but that begs the question: how do they produce the steam?

After much thinking, I deduced that they could "eat" coal by swallowing it whole and they lighting it up from the inside using a pyrophoric liquid contained in a separate chamber that gets "leaked" into the chamber where the fuel is, thus producing steam that then is released through the funnel/blowhole. And as crazy as it sounds, there is some potential due to the inspiration for this idea: the bombardier beetle

Cute right?

This little fella uses chemistry to ward off predators: essentially there are 2 chambers in its abdomen that contain 2 separate liquids that upon contact, produce a chemical reaction that reaches the boiling the point of water, to which is then expelled as a scalding liquid that causes irritation upon contact. Let me repeat that again: a bug is mixing 2 volatile liquids to create a new liquid as hot as 212 degrees Fahrenheit (100 degrees Celsius) and is then spraying it at everyone else.

From this, I figured the inside of a train would be just as heavily armored as its outside in order to prevent internal scarring from its own pyrophoric liquid once it ignites; I'm comparing it to what the bombardier beetle does in that rather than releasing the explosive reaction, it keeps it inside and and instead releases the byproduct (steam). That being said, I enjoy the thought of an engine "breathing" fire by expelling this liquid not unlike a spitting cobra as a scare tactic.

On a final note, I think if the buffers of trains weren't just elaborate body gear akin to what horses wear when pulling goods or people, I could see them as modified spikes seen on a thorny devil or the kentrosaurs, pointing forwards not unlike a boar's tusk and used in combat and perhaps be subjected to being dulled with tennis balls to prevent accidents like one does with goats.

If by some chance anyone reads this and gets this far, I'd like to both thank and applaud you for taking time to listen to this nonsensical rambling of mine as I've quickly gone down the mine that is ttte and creature design.

[fandom-fakemon]

Hello tublr! I'm not a new user

Basically I'm @sketch-pencilpoint and I decided to make a fakemon blog

I'll be posting fakemon here whenever I feel like, mostly based on characters and random prompts. And better yet, I will create fakemon for you!!

Yeah I take fakemon requests. What I'll do is:

Make a fakemon based on a character for you

Make a fakemon based on a promt you give me

Make a fakemon based on a real animal or object

For example, if you told me to make a mario pokemon, I'd make a mario pokemon

Requests status: open for all

Also no nsfw

ALSO also please send any requests through my ask box

And I will delete your ask if for any reason I don't wanna make that fakemon

Tags represent some fandoms I'm in

[ask-the-misfits-of-miitopia]

Made a blog intro (will be added onto soon)

Edit one: more characters and also main blog is @sketch-pencilpoint

Main rules for asking:

Keep it safe for work/no horny

Don't be mean/harass in any way

There will be ships but don't push things

That is all

Yall better take a look at this.

Hello dear!

Sorry for bothering you, but it's important to remind you to turn off your asks for a few days! Bad things are going to happen on Tumblr soon...

Don t know anything about this but BETTER BE SAFE EVERYBODY!!!!!!

[fandom-fakemon]

New intro with new rules.

Again, I'm fandom fakemon, main is @sketch-pencilpoint and other side blog is @ask-the-misfits-of-miitopia

I make fakemon based on both promts and stuff I want to make

Rules because I've had enough:

Don't send me the same ask more than once. I will NOT do anything if you do and it just dooms yourself and your fakemon

Don't send me GIFs. I will accept images, but don't send more than 1 or anything that doesn't relate to the character/animal you want me to pokefy.

Another note is that, in general, I'd rather not be sent images unless you want an oc fakemon or if your character is really obscure.

Keep it sfw and friendly. Rudeness is not tolerated

Send requests to my inbox, you'd be surprised

Don't be overly specific. Yes, I do fakemon requests, but I want my own creative freedom. Don't limit me to specific creatures, added concepts, or evolution lines. I'll accept specific types if you stick to the rules though

Also, please try to use correct grammar. And actually ask. I've had people send requests just to say 'you do' and I find it rather rude as it feels like demanding it rather than making a request.

Things to base a fakemon on:

Ideas and animals not done/done wrong in actual games

Characters from any sort of fandom (I won't do real people)

Objects

Existing pokemon redesigns (not fakemon redesigns, unless you made the fakemon)

Evolutions (and pre evos) of existing pokemon, including megas and gigantamax forms

Fandoms I'm in in tags
