A little tiny microscopic dragon, rotifers passing by.
I've spent a lot of time peering down a microscope in the last few years, enjoying taking inspiration from the real tiny organisms to make one of my own.
i wanna talk about this shot
if forum signatures still existed this would be mine
God fucking damn it
guy who didn't ask for any of this of all time
New one
hi, I really love the cleanness of your line work :)) I was wondering which brushes you use? The textures are fantastic
i have a brushes tag which is more comprehensive but the brush i use for lineart 9 times out of 10 is GvW Urban Sketcher P4 from georgbrush.club though i don't remember the exact pack i think it might be a pencil and charcoals one. i also use urban sketcher for painting (i used it in my most recent art post here)
if it is drawn in sai then the brush is default round paintbrush for everything including line art. for this style of art (more obviously pencil-like) what i use is procreate default 6B pencil with the grain fiddled with a bit to make it denser:
hi, would you mind sharing what brushes you use in procreate? tysm!!! love ur art it’s got such an awesome vibe
ya
true grit kraftone kit - i use this to do the cmyk comics and vintage print effects. it's expensive so it's used up my entire brush budget for the year lmao. this requires u to use only cmyk in successive multiply layers to get your colours and by god is it labour intensive
true grit rusty nib set - tons of brush pen and calligraphy style stuff. also extremely fun
true grit free sample set - sign up for the newsletter and u get this one for free. it's got two folders of various stuff from their other sets, it rules. the blue texture here is a litho brush i got from the set
trisketched risograph - for risograph effects. another one where u need to layer a simplified palette to get the colours u want. hard to use
trisketched ink - i use this for writing and adding labels to my homework. the trisketched sets were gifted idk how much they cost
George V W the (will) elder set - this is free/pwyw and it contains the brush i now use for nearly all my sketches and lineart, hugely recommended
@/sivsii's brushset - i use the mechanical pencil brushes to get a kind of markers on cheap paper effect, love it. also free
I’d like to present a “project” I started last summer: VANILLA LIZARDS!!
A lot of time and effort went into bringing this to life and thinking through everything visual. Rina and Klekot helped me a ton with that — huge thanks to them.
In this big encyclopedia, I wanted to show my take on lizard designs and give each of them a short description. Do you have any favorites among them?
Downpour lizards coming to screens soon

My favorite grasshopper species, Romalea microptera, have begun to hatch!
some female bald-faced hornets (Dolichovespula maculata) joined a friend and I this morning while out exploring. It was really incredible to see them in action!
The animal in this video is venomous. Venom is dangerous and affects everyone differently, and in some cases can be life-threatening. I am an experienced entomologist; do not attempt!
ough
my cute mole cricket basya
look how she tries to dig in the hand... so cute
[VIDEO AND PHOTOS TAKEN: MARCH 10TH, 2026 | Video and Image IDs: A video and six photos of a spiny brown and grey larval Pyractomena firefly crawling around on a human hand, its head looking around curiously and its back end curling up and pushing forward almost like how one would use a cane/walking stick /End IDs.]
The first I've seen of this kind's larvae! What a badass looking beast this thing is, and so curious too! It's like a doggy to me
Aponax ligdleri, the white headed evildoer
The apex of the food chain of the Sinedean temperate foam plains, these large predators are tenacious cursorial hunters of large, often armored, prey. Their diet includes herbivorous lantalids, hermetids, and other species, as well as predators and omnivores. Their enormous heads, equipped with powerful beaked jaws and sharp, crushing teeth, allow them to butcher a wide variety of prey. Their teeth grow throughout their lives, so during periods of less successful hunts, they must wear down their teeth on foreign objects such as trees or rocks. As members of the pulmonopod (arm-breathers)group, they possess a middle pair of limbs adapted into expansions the anterior pair of lungs, giving them greater endurance during pursuits. Their long legs with shock-absorbing toes, combined with their developed lungs and a long, rigid, tail-like abdomen, allow them to actively pursue prey and then tear it apart with their powerful jaws. Their seemingly short neck can extend to more than five times its relaxed length. Their killing method varies depending on the prey, but most often, these predators attack the neck or thoracic brain chamber.
Individuals live in solitarity and hunt during the day, meeting each other only during the breeding season.
Individuals are aided in their search for a mate by their developed olfactory cheek pads, located at the corners of the mouth. This multifunctional sensory tissue once served only to muscularly support the jaw, but over time, the olfactory organs migrated to the surface of the cheek tissue. Thanks to the highly humid atmosphere and the flapping motion of these organs, evildoers detect odors and other chemical information, including mating pheromones. At the end of evildoers abdomen, you can see a fluffy red tuft—this is their pheromonal bush, localized, stiff, hair-like filaments that become soaked with odorous secretions during the breeding season to find mates. Their specialized vocalizations also aid in this process; the anatomy of their respiratory midlimbs allows them to contract their lungs very rapidly, giving their calls a "popping" or pulsating sound. After a short period of incubation, mothers dig a small, semi-vertical nest (burrow), usually near tall tree trunks or rocks. Females possess a long ovipositor, which they use to lay about a dozen eggs at the very bottom of the burrow. They then carefully guard the nest with their young for several weeks, bringing them food. The young quickly emerge from the nest, within about a month. They stay together and hunt small prey and parasites for approximately two to three years. They reach sexual maturity at approximately five years of age and live to be around 20 years old.
sorry if this is a silly question but how do you achieve that old look with your paintings? I don’t know how to describe it
unfortunately my other text post sums it up, you make a drawing and then fuck it up 6 ways til sunday. mostly you just want to blur it past your own comfort level (blur it until you're thinking "ugh now no one will be able to see my cool lineart!") but here's some extra stuff to consider
background painting - for this one i was thinking of scooby doo movie where yes it takes place in the dark, but the lighting is still very colourful and bright, with some nebulous green clouds over everything. used procreate's tamar brush for these & the elements brushes for the clouds. the contrast between the painted background and the flat animation cel is how the effect works
[whole process of this & the others under tha cut]
