Skrunkly Skranklin' Space Gremlin is finally finished !! WHEW! See you at @neotropolisevent

Tutorial page is in my shop! https://missmonster.myshopify.com/

These creatures were pests with a habit of chewing on docked starship guts, a behavior that caused dread in pilots, reminiscent of Old Earth wartime " gremlins". It was discovered they possess a basic sentience and are now trained to service the engines they used to feast on... Compensated with delicious scrap parts of course!

Yes, I will make these available as blank cast kits soon!

An Update on Rausliers

decided a while ago that Rausliers weren't quite working for me, so I've changed some stuff about their design to better suit my ideas for them, as well as making them easier to draw (for me lol).

hoping to make more posts on these guys soon, as well as my other aliens, buuut with my struggle to find employment i've been mostly focused on making ends meet as of late haha. if you'd like to see me draw stuff more often, consider leaving a tip if you have the means while I continue hunting for a job :)

a friend of mine said rausliers look like someone dropped an anchor on their heads. unfortunately i agree

Irdiril wear stilts because they hate being small, and not see eye to eye with the other party. Yes, especially the politician.

Wait. You have TWO sapient species ?

Well there are now three sophonts.

I decided to make another sophont in December of last year and I have revised the design since and I think this design is final. They are called canihyir and they are relatives of graouu (cat species of Tsyprucee). Wara’ara is the sophont in the middle and are basically canihyir adapted to a cold island climate. The two canihyir species can hybridize but most offspring are infertile and have health issues.

Wolfmen have contacted canihyir around 60 years before the current time period of the setting. The discovery of wara’ara by southern wolfmen was fairly recent but polar wolfmen have been in contact with them for centuries. The name wara’ara means whistling people in polar languages because of wara’aras whistling and chirping like language.

Also canihyir think wolfmen are scary because they are so big compared to them.

Small collection of color sketches of speculative art of dinosaurs

Some color sketches I made as a personal creature design challenge, I've been having fun making these unnacurate and featherly representations of dinos on my spare time. My goal was to make em as visually striking as a could without losing the base design in the process. From top to bottom they are: Carnotaurus, Qutzacoatlus, Spinosaurus Mirabilis, Yi Qi, Dilophosaurus and Ankylosaurus

What's the level of articulation/flexibility of an Uniima?

I've been getting this question quite a bit.

A sky uniima showing some neck movement, including sleeping position and stretches.

Sky uniima have some of the most flexible and strong necks of their biosphere. Their necks might be extra thick, but the contents aren't all tough fat and muscle. The neck bones fold into an S shape at rest in the back of the mass. On them, you have some intense musculature and a very girthy "spinal" cord. Still, the majority of the thing is air. Uniima have large air sacs from their ancestors, but most have remained in the neck. Some of them appear constantly inflated, while others visibly aid speech or respiration (their true lungs are in the main body).

Their skulls are quite rigid in comparison, but they can do a little bit of side-to-side, back-to-front movement with their jaws. Just wouldn't recommend doing it too often or while carrying heavy objects.

The biggest problem when moving around is their horrendous crest, making their compact living life difficult. Fortunately, they are very aware of it and have no issue avoiding obstacles (though disabilities that hinder this ability are not too uncommon). Many will enlarge their crests with clothing/jewelry or even 'realistic' extensions that can get hefty. But hey, fashion and exercise in one?

Being arboreal, they have more flexible limbs than most terrestrial fauna with "belly" spine. But using them as active manipulators isn't as practical unless you are a trained professional body-dysmorphia-alien-raised gentleman. Their claws can't be pulled back much, and their flat, rough finger pads have a bad grip when handling small things with no thumb to help.

Didn't show much of the limb movement or inner beak, but might do that another time.

2026 - SS14 Slime spec bio again. Smithsonian ( @shuttlecarrier 's oc) as Mouchard's GMO species. They look a little fucked up because they're underweight, and they're also wearing claw caps for style.
