Howdy all! I'm Tiina, a creature design artist. Grateful to have a safe outlet to keep in touch with my friends that are understandably bailing... other.. social media platforms. Heh. 😅

Dragged an oldie out of the mothballs for #GryphonAppreciationDay. This is my Indian Hornbill + Squirrel Gryphon, Knuk. And the statue of him sculpted by the extremely talented @verdantsculpts.bsky.social!

Umi's colors have quite a bit of dolphin influence.

Umi.
My Vapor dragon. A kind, strong fisher that lives on a rocky shore. She's also friends with Copernicus.

Noc'lore.
My Neonphibian dream dragon. I created her when I was a teenager from my usual inspiration - "Inanimate object looks like animal."
I dropped a pair of striped stockings on my bedroom floor and they landed in a shape that reminded me of a house gecko.🦎

Calcium deposits in brain tissue or blood vessels can cause hand tremors as well. I'm glad that they sent you to neurology.

I feel the need to clarify that I'm sharing a lot of my older art from back when I owned Dragondust dot com.
I let that domain expire and rebranded.

Now my current website is Tiinasaurus.com

Fanfiction Fanart.

#Megamind #Fanart #TheBluePrince #FishOfaDifferentSkin #RoxanneRitchi #Minion #HumanMinion

Soren Kinestoi Syxus

Fanart inspired by 'The Blue Prince' by Scarlet-Frost.
The fanfic ended on an illegal cliffhanger and the author deleted their Deviantart account. I'm not sure where they are now and kinda worried.

Oh

Fan art inspired by 'Fish of a Different Skin' by cgaussie.
NOTE: Just a warning. The story contains Adult Content™.
Here we have humanized Minion, who’s supposed to be lookin’ at his hands but instead appears to have found the invisible broom… or something.

Since capitalism won't adequately appease my current obsession I'll do it myself.

#Megamind #DIY #Airfreshener #EvilAirfreshener

As a nerd that drives I obviously had to make an (evil) air-freshener OR figure out how to make my car turn invisible.

The former was more cost efficient.

I get meticulous when it comes to accuracy so I paused the movie in a few places, taking screenshots to drag into Photoshop for measurements. As you do... Logically.

Oof that's old (and blurry) but if it's helpful feel free to use it to make your own evil car decor.

I figure if Megamind took the time between building various gadgets, giant robots and an army of brain-bots while plotting new ways to kill Metroman, to make a custom air freshener for his car that no one will see because it's invisible, you can too.

Endlessly melting... 🫠🫠🫠

Tiinasaurus🦕 @tiinasaurus.bsky.social · May 3

The irony of a typo in my complaint about not being able to fix typos. 🫠

Tiinasaurus🦕 @tiinasaurus.bsky.social · May 3

I'm sorry if you happen to see me post a thing and delete it immediately.

I'm trying to get the hang the format here and it's frustrating that there's no quick editing window.

Even if it's just typos. 🫠

🌈New Hotness VS Old and Busted👎

When MLP|FiM came out I wanted to see how my OC Embertail would look modernized.

Her Cutie Mark was inspired by the 'Twice as Fancy Ponies' that had symbols covering most of their torso. I loved the Pegasus 'Dancing Butterflies' as a kid. She was one of my favorites and a big influence.

Embertail was created before Friendship Is Magic.

Back when I started getting into eBay. Buying beat-up G1 dolls to refurbish or customize. Mostly 'So Soft Ponies' with badly damaged flocking that could be easily removed.

This was drawn as a t-shirt design to wear to a "MLP Collectors Convention"... which turned out to be a small swap meet at some kids house. '__'

At least the mom's that drove us there had a good laugh.

That makes my heart happy. 🥰

Your demotivational guru is such a charmer. And I love your art jungle! 🪴😊💕

Tiinasaurus🦕 @tiinasaurus.bsky.social · May 2

It's nice to meet you too. I'm glad you like it. ^^

Tiinasaurus🦕 @tiinasaurus.bsky.social · May 1

And some times the clips are scenes you DO remember and don't give proper context for what comes next. Which I guess avoids spoilers... but still. I usually watch the last episode from the previous season ahead of time anyway just cause I'm excited and can't wait. ^^

You'll wanna read the ALT for context.😅

Kaapamü's buddy Copernicus.

#OC #CreatureDesign

Less anime influenced redesign. His tail is prehensile.

OOOOOOOLD art from 2003 showing off his native biome. Mostly humid marshland filled with banyan trees.
