The long-nosed horned frog [also known as the Malayan horned frog, Megophrys nasuta] is a large frog native to southern Thailand, Malaysia, Sumatra, and Borneo. These frogs prefer tropical rainforest biomes, and have adapted their coloration, patterns, and facial shape to better resemble fallen leaves as a means of camouflage.

She Who Painted The Medium
This is Julie Bell
She is the wife and collaborator of Boris Vallejo, the artist who produced much of the 90s-era fantasy art, especially Conan the Barbarian and Barbarella also much of the 90s Marvel character art for collector cards, which for our generation is quite significant. If you owned a Marvel superhero card collection with super-realistic features, chances are either Vallejo or Bell painted it.
Bell’s own work produced a broad range of works crossing genres from fantasy art, used futures, and the creatures in the natural world.
She also did work for MTV, Coca-Cola and Nike, and helped in painting the film trailers for National Lampoon’s Vacation, and the Aqua Team Hunger Force Movie.
Throughout the 90s, over 100 fantasy book cover illustrations for science fiction and fantasy magazines were painted by her, 90 of which were done in the 20 years to 2009. If you played a fantasy video game for the SNES, or Sega Game Gear, she most likely painted the game cover.
As you may have noticed, some of the artworks feature not must of the powerful men you’d traditionally in fantasy art, but powerful women as well. Vallejo and Bell liked to depict women who displayed strength, power and athleticism - and modelled the female figures on some of her friends.
In fact, Bell, who was previously a competitive bodybuilder - was herself the model for her own art as well as that of her husband’s. She was her own muse and her own canvas, in paint and in the gym.
Bell was and still is, as passionate about fitness as well as her art. It is these twin passions that fuelled the hyper-realistic figures with such defined anatomies. Her talent made her a notable figure in the fantasy art and comic book scene.
She won multiple awards for her art including several first place awards for the Art Renewal Center, and honorable mentions, multiple Chesley Awards - the award given to recognise science fiction and fantasy artistic works, and the Socity of Animal Artists Southwest Editors Choice Award.
She currently resides in Beaumont, Texas, continuously working on her paintings, although her work has recently had more of a focus on the natural world.
Her sons - Anthony and David Palumbo is also a fine artist in his own regard, David in particular, produced work for Magic: The Gathering as well as Heavy Metal Magaine, gaining clients from Tor.com to Lucasfilm, by way of Marvel.
In short, Julie Bell has an enduring influence on popular culture, one that covers an entire generation from everything ranging from board games to film.
@supersoftly @thistledbones thought you guys would find this interesting.
Julie Bell is an absolute doll and role model. If I can be even an inkling of her power and influence, I’ll die happy :D
@iamnamedsilence look at those wolves! (also, feel free to look at everything else ;)
Velvet Ants
The Mutillidae are a family of more than 3,000 species of wasps whose wingless females resemble large, hairy ants. Their common name velvet ant refers to their dense pile of hair, which most often is bright scarlet or orange, but may also be black, white, silver, or gold. Black and white specimens are sometimes known as panda ants due to their hair coloration resembling that of the giant panda. They are known for their extremely painful stings, hence the common name cow killer or cow ant. However, mutillids are not aggressive and sting only in defense. Only female mutillids are capable of inflicting a sting. In addition, the actual toxicity of their venom is much lower than that of honey bees or harvester ants. Unlike true ants, they are solitary, and lack complex social systems.
