Seraphim Angel Anatomy

What are our thoughts on the anatomy of a seraph angel with 6 wings? How does that work? (Outside of it being magic. Let's have fun with science.)

The biblical description of the six-winged Seraphim angels is super minimal (Isa 6:2, 6, with some interpretation here.) But let's just say for reasons they look like people with 6 wings.

To start: What is a seraph related to? In both biblical and Hazbin Hotel lore, it's implied that (maybe some?) angels can breed with humans, which suggests that they're mammals, and very close to humans. But...I wonder if that has to do with shapeshifting or other magic? Bible nerds chime in. It's also just as interesting/valid to consider bug anatomy, and I encourage bug artists to draw a human-ish body with wings attached in dragonfly or spider style or something.

A number of people have explored the concept of angel anatomy by looking at humans and birds, like DCRoleplays on Deviantart. I also recall this image by Uzlo on Deviantart pointing out that you need pectoral muscles to move your arms/wings, so...if you have two arms and two wings, all of which move independently, you might need four pecs.

Alternatively, here's an extremely cool gif by @squidlife-crisis showing a human ribcage with human arms, the keel of a bird, and what looks like layered pectoral muscles for arms and wings. So, rather than multiple visible chests, an angel with the skin on would appear to just have a bigger chest.

But now add MORE wings. Would we have a huge chest with lots of layers of pecs attached to the keel...and would you need to change the shape of the keel to handle so many attachments?

Or, is someone gonna draw Lucifer or the other seraphim with 8 pecs? Will it be me? For science, obviously.

What are your thoughts?

[cambriancutie]

i was going to ask if dom was an inktoling because of the different ears (and hair) but then i thought about it more and. do headphones fit on his head. are they tilted off to the side in a way thats barely intrusive but still annoying. did he give up on wearing them and just wears earbuds because they arent at a 45 degree angle at all times. are the ears even meant to be different or am i overthinking it. well thats all the questions i have

his ears follow typical splatoon logic so they DO fit on his head. have you seen the squidlife headphones.

squished

actually now that i think about it, itd hurt like hell. maybe he doesnt wear earbuds. or hes one of those freaks who watch tiktoks in public on full volume

[fantasy-anatomy-analyst]

Have you seen any of squidlifecrises's work on winged humanoids? They've also done extensive work on how wing anatomy would work on a human figure in their book on angels. Might be of interest

first I've heard of them! but their art looks fascinating, I appreciate their grasp on internal anatomy, which is not actually one of my strong suits. here's the post on their blog about the winged humanoid anatomy book

if you're sensitive to gore, maybe avoid their blog, but dang that centaur anatomy is amazing (major cw for gore here, it's a rather visceral display of internal anatomy)

always good to be introduced to more artists! @squidlife-crisis is the blog, if anyone wants to go check them out.

Introduction

So this is my first post on Tumblr. At least, my first post as this account. I'm unsure what I want to do here except express myself for me. I am not sure how many people will see this or if it will even matter amongst all the content on all these social media platforms.

But I do know that this will at least be in some way therapeutic. I think I need this to start here. So hello! My name is Squid-Sama. I'll be posting whatever I want here that isn't relating to reposts or Fandom. I promise the more I post the more it will be worth it. I hope I can be of some form of entertainment to you. I hope you can enjoy your stay on this blog!

[befuddled-calico-whump]

Hello! I've spent the last few days combing through your account, and I gotta say, it slaps so fuckin hard mate. I really love the comics. Since I think you've got great taste in whump, I was wondering if you had any longform comics from other creators to rec since I'm all caught up on your stuff :)

Thank you so much!! As far as whump comics, there aren't many long form ones I know of, at least not on Tumblr, but there's plenty of oneshots that are amazing if you search the "whump comic" tag!

Other than those, here are some series I can recommend:

The Woods by @whumpcateyes

Just found this today when scrolling the tag! The artist has a few more comics in their masterpost, but this one caught my eye. It's about a guy named Leo who gets trapped in an endless forest, and has several pages completed

Mediwhump May by @demondamage

Interconnected oneshots featuring a demon who's been captured by angels and is subjected to endless experimentation. All the characters are really cool! warning for gore and mature themes

The Perfect Agarthan by @squidlife-crisis

Longform comic that takes place in a distant, post-apocalyptic world. Follows Fauno, an exile, and Ulloriak, a centaur who helped him learn to survive. Has a high amount of pages and plot

For longform comics that contain whump, outside of Tumblr, I can recommend The Purple Hyacinth, Suitor Armor, Not Even Bones, Look Homeward, and Covenant, all on Webtoon

If anyone else knows a comic series I missed, please add on to this!
