So I'm not selling this one and probably not making more because I feel like the person who oxidization- method-cleaned the mouse skeleton did all the work, but I couldn't resist adding some wings (made of snake ribs) and a handmade glow in the dark resin "crystal" base when mounting this little guy. If anyone else doing oxidization cleaning wants to collaborate though I'd consider doing more pieces like this because I'm quite happy with the results.

(across the spiderverse spoiler warning⚠️)
Before going to see Across the Spider-Verse or knowing anything about the film, I happened to be reading Unnatural Creatures (a collection of eerie stories by Neil Gaiman and other authors). The book’s first story (called Inksplot I think), by Gahan Wilson, reminds me so much of The Spot from atsv. The story is about a weird carnivorous black spot from another dimension that appears and reappears throughout a guys house. While The Spot is a person, the spot in the book is more like a plant. Once a character looks away from the spot, it disappears and reappears in a different place with new growth. I just thought it was interesting that The Spot and the black spot/blob are both these sort of all-consuming, inter-dimensional beings. Also, both atsv and the short story end on giant cliffhangers, where it's unclear how either The Spot or spot/blob might be defeated or somehow made less harmful. I can't wait to see Miles Morales and the other characters again, as well as what will be revealed, in the next spiderverse movie!
another note: (Spoiler warning for across the spiderverse and everything everywhere all at once⚠️) I also feel like atsv was totally referencing Everything Everywhere All At Once with Spot’s whole “you threw a bagel at me and also I’ve decided to basically become the Everything Bagel” thing. Which is so fun.

people should depict Pac as weird more, both in his actions but also in being a thing a creature, scurrying up the walls, eating expired snacks (and their containers) without issue, eyes blinking sideways, pupils aren’t the right shape, glows in the dark a little bit. He’s a strange guy.
#qsmp#Qsmp pac#And this is without his kinks sob#Also I love the idea of eldritch creature Pac that is so power and unnatural but still completely unable to save the people he loves

Monsters are pretty neat! and this town has plenty of them!
Unnaturals are otherworldly creatures that that possess supernatural abilities. They come through openings between the human world and the unnatural world known as fracture, and have been appearing since the early 20th century.
They come in all different shapes and sizes with a monstrous twist!
(There's also a Flora for plant based and Anomalous for one that don't fit the other categories. this chart is old lol.)
But unnaturals most distinguished feature is their glowing eyes that reflect the color of their cores! Cores are crystalized orbs of pure unnatural energy being that it essential to their being. Basically their heart. It allows them to be able to properly take shape in the human world and gives them their abilities.
Cores come in different colors, serving as a tell for how strong, rare, or dangerous they can be.
(based on the light spectrum, the more unnatural energy one has, the higher the core tier.)
Not all unnaturals are dangerous or hostile. Many are docile and live normally among humans. There's still so much about them to discover!
Their presence on earth seems to have affected humans in quite the interesting way! People started to gain supernatural abilities similar to unnaturals. And those type of people are known as potens.

"Pregnant by who or what or when or where, irrelevant 😌" Well~ Picture then a boy whose belly contains it all: The natural child of a one night stand; nestled alongside a monstrous litter put in there one moonlit night in the woods; a clutch of eggs implanted by aliens; and the regressed form of his boyfriend, who was afraid to support him through all this~
A little sampler of everything I love, don’t mind if I do 😻
I doubt so many different things would get along well in such a cramped womb, constantly fighting for space… Never a moment in which that boy’s belly doesn’t have a shape or two sticking out, never able to find a comfortable position anywhere. All because he couldn’t seem to keep his legs shut for anything that showed interest in him, and now he has a burgeoning belly that truly keeps his thighs spread 24/7, with who knows how much longer to wait and how much bigger to grow 🥵
#; ask box#; let-me-fill-you#; preg#; monster preg#; ovi#; unbirth#; vore#<- in the tags#I’m raising my hand jumping up and down I WANT TO BE THE BOY IN QUESTION#I’m sure he’d be ravenously hungry too#…maybe unnaturally#what with the forest creatures and the alien spawn…. who’s to say he wouldn’t eat a whole person

ENTRY 001 THE HUMAN DIDN'T REACT BADLY AT ME IT OFFERED ME THE SHELL IT HAD IT FREAKED OUT WHEN I REACHED FOR ITS FACE I'LL BRING IT A PRETTY SHELL IF IT COMES BACK …IF
Skeppy: -I mean, you look pretty freaked out Techno: I'M FINE
Art for @simplepotatofarmer (my main motivation for making rivals duo fanart)
[IMAGE ID: A digital drawing of Technoblade and Dream. Dream is in the foreground, Technoblade in the background. Technoblade is a human with pink hair, a black diving suit, a red shirt, and red fins. Dream looks semi-human, with finned ears, dirty blonde hair, pale skin, and the start of a green tail. Dream is looking at Technoblade, while Technoblade looks at a rainbow-coloured shell. There's text in a black font that reads "ENTRY 001" near the top left on the screen, directly below the water. END ID]
[IMAGE ID: A digital drawing of Technoblade. He's wearing swimming goggles, a black diving suit, and a red shirt. His pink hair floats above him, and he appears to be holding his breath. Text in a black font reads "THE HUMAN DIDN'T REACT BADLY AT ME". END ID]
[IMAGE ID: A digital drawing of Dream. Dream is a mermaid with finned ears, dirty blonde hair, green tail scales starting at the top of his chest, and four-fingered clawed hands. His thumb isn't visible. He has wide eyes and a wide smile, reaching for a rainbow shell that Technoblade's hand has an index finger on. Text in a black font reads "IT OFFERED ME THE SHELL IT HAD". END ID]

Technoblade is a human with pink hair, a black diving suit, a red shirt, and red fins. Dream looks semi-human, with finned ears, dirty blonde hair, pale skin, and the start of a green tail. Technoblade is clearly panicked, kicking his feet to swim away from Dream. Text in a black font reads "IT FREAKED OUT WHEN I REACHED FOR ITS FACE", explaining Technoblade's panic. END ID]
[IMAGE ID: A digital drawing of the water, the main focus of the image being the text "I'LL BRING IT A PRETTY SHELL IF IT COMES BACK". A boat is visible at the top of the screen, Dream's hair at the bottom. END ID]
[IMAGE ID: A digital drawing of over the edge of a boat. Technoblade is to the right, while a coral reef is visible to the left. Dream's smile is highlighted in screen in a dark area of the coral reef. Skeppy's speech bubble, on the boat, reads "-I mean, you look pretty freaked out" in a cyan font with a black background. Technoblade's speech bubble, a red background with white font, reads "I'M FINE" and is placed slightly over Skeppy's speech bubble. Text in a black font reads "…IF" in the water. END ID]

saw the Borgia reblog and knew you'd have the best opinion on this: cesare the lion and lucrezia the little cottontail rabbit?
Some niggling, boring part of me insists that they should technically all be bovine because the Borgia crest bears a bull. . . but honestly who cares? I like the way you think. Cesare certainly has the appropriate hair 🦁

Stylished hippogriff (horse gryphon).
Their front legs are meant to look like something you can find from "do not draw horse legs like this" -guides.

Subject was spotted outside of a home located in [\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\].
