I'm glad I reread the prompt before I inked my picture. This used to be a bit more chesty - #trunk. #inktober #inktober2025 #chest #box

An ink drawing of a trunk. There is a white band around the rim of the trunk lid as well as a hinge flap for a lock. The trunk appears to be made of wood, with panelling across the front and side. There are reinforced corners on the bottom of the trunk. There is a dark shadow to the bottom right. The signature is on the white banding, reading MJC with the date 10/14.

I don't have work today! So here is a bright #plumedcockscomb for #foliagefriday. This #fuchsia cockscomb had a yellow sister in a pot next to it. Cockscomb. #nature #photography #naturephotography #cockscomb #potted

Multiple stalks of a fuchsia plumed cockscomb. Each stalk is in full black I'm with dozens of flowers growing on each stalk. There is a grassy hill with a house in the background.
The cockscomb got its name due to its propensity to being an ornamental flower. It comes in a variety of colors and is thought to look like the crest, or comb, of a rooster, or cock.

I'm alive! I finished inking up the #crown I drew yesterday for the day three prompt. #inktober #inktober2025

A sketchy ink drawing of a kappa and its crown. A kappa is a Japanese ghost that lives under bridges. It's like a turtle human with a large divet on the top of its head that is filled with water. If the water is emptied out it will die.

For all 3 of you watching for my inktober today, I will have to post it tomorrow. I had a massive migraine after getting home today and went straight to bed.
This post is brought to you by forgetting to change into PJs before sleeping.

I think every plant near my house is some sort of #lily. This #foliagefriday I am showing off these gorgeous red spider lilies. #nature #photography #naturephotography #flowers #red #spiderlily

A large rock sits on a green embankment with a paved path leading up to a house. Just in front of the rock sit several red spider lilies beautifully in focus. A little ways back, next to the rock, is another grouping of lilies. The lilies in the forefront are under a shadow, with the background flowers in the sun.

I didn't realize you had allowed late backers. I'm so glad I was able to back the project. Nemo is one of my favorite IPs.
