Interpretation I did for "Trunk" during Ink25, starting with the idea of a Mammoth, then a Mecha-Elephant, and stripping that down to the barest essential of a mechanical trunk on legs. World-building in alt-text
The incinerator sparked and fumed as it digested more debris, ravenous for another bite provided by an ever-feeding proboscis. Sometimes metal, often-times loose soil, and, on occasion, those long (or freshly) dead on the battlefield. At this juncture, nobody knows what the original purpose is behind these stalking, janitorial maws. Just that they're ever-starving, ever-seeking, and must be evaded whenever possible.

a rare art update from me.
Still a WIP, but I’m now happier with the body plan of these alien creatures. They are native to Ona, a fictional planet I introduced in a post a few months back.

Work-in-progress drawing of a predatory, bipedal species. The central anterior limb or pre-oral limb is adapted into a raptorial appendage, for snagging prey and otherwise foraging (more details to come with the finished drawings)

I was almost in tears while at work today (it’s been a week), then an elderly patient called and talked to me over the phone about random things for like 20 minutes lol.

Normally problematic, but it saved me today by resetting my brain. Thank you, random old guy ✨🫶

I've been drawing #dogs lately, not for any special project but because domestication is fascinating and I like to see diverse things all lined up pretty in the same pose c-: #digitalart
All dogs face to the left in a static standing pose in a flat stylized way. This is a Bedlington terrier, which has thick fur on the face and bottoms of the legs, and thinner shaved fur on the torso, neck and tail. It has fur pompoms on its floppy ears, and a small dark eye on its egg-shaped head This is a Border terrier, a small tannish dog with a large head, strong chest, and straight tail. It has wiry fur and a dark beard on its face. Its ears are half-flopped over. This is a bull terrier. It is an all-white dog with an egg-shaped head, stocky body, and a long thin tail. Its fur is very short, and it has small eyes. This is an Airedale terrier. It is a tall dog with wiry fur in blacks and browns. It has half-floppy ears and a short curled tail. It has longer fur on the legs and face.

having niche interests is funny cuz most people I’ve met wouldn’t get excited over discovering a new Greek prefix (for taxonomic naming), but I sure do.

Like yuss, I can now give a fictional clade of fictional creatures the perfect descriptive name 🎉 👏

Today is my birthday.

I've seen some of these posts that ask people to share some of their work around their birthdays and I thought of just doing the same since I don't have much to do on this platform atm.

So if you can, idk, have some engagement in the meantime and repost this somewhere.
A scene in which a highly reflective, glowing capsule-shaped spacecraft is spotted from a larger space station in space. There are no stars visible due to the way the “camera” would be exposed. The main subject in question - a non-humanoid alien dragon wearing a spacesuit, holds on to a support bar with some tethering back to the main station. A set of alien ruins located on a frozen world (the "most distant" planet located in the Sol system), with building structures being laid with frozen ice, some of it has also collapsed due to accumulated permafrost and ice over the years. There's liquid on the surface of this world, but it is not water but something similar to liquid methane (sort of like the one in Titan). Despite it being in daylight, the sun is distant (yet visible) enough that it does not receive the light that the atmosphere receives that it is perceived as part of an eternal night, surrounded by clouds. Almost blocking it is the planet's largest moon. An upright sophont gorgonopsian (or gorgonopsid; a synapsid/mammal-like reptile with saber teeth) with a headphone and microphone speaks in a lecture demonstrating ecological collapse in Permian Earth (shown with the continent of Pangea) from their own causes, which is projected at the back of the large lecture room of a theatre. An image in which a blue orb resembling a pulsar star rips through the image and segmenting it into a cross-section of four separate scenes. The scene depicts three different aliens going through the same experience - of the Founders’ remnants (an ancient race of extinct aliens older than them)

some silly sketches of an amphibious inchworm-like “fish”. probably an alien creature... more info in alt text #specevo #creaturedesign #sketch #procreate
a fictional creature with only 2 true limbs, but with the help of proleg-like appendages on the tail & specialized skin secretions, it can grip tree branches and other substrates with ease. Cephalic arms have broadened somewhat to help with this too; in addition to their usual sensory and manipulation purposes. (somewhat inspired by tree-climbing mudskippers, I really wanted to try drawing prolegs on a “vertebrate”-type animal of a similar lifestyle)

Just a quick update to note that I’ve changed my username, (formerly “evilevilsheep”) across all platforms I’m on.
The last one was fine but ultimately it’s not what I want anymore, so here we go. Content itself should remain the same, hopefully more frequent posts if anything (no promises though)

(repost to fix a typo)
I tried my hand at painting a fictional planet named Ona, where some of my spec evo creatures live (alt text has more introductory details)

I’m pleased with the stylized look 🌌✨

#planetart #spaceart #alienworld #specevo #exoplanet #planet #digitalart #procreate
A first glimpse of Ona. An extrasolar world veiled by dense swirling clouds and tinted blue-green by photosynthetic lifeforms— it has a familiar and inviting aura. However, closer inspection may reveal unique lineages of life that only converge with Terran lifeforms where physics and chemistry demand. The lesser axial tilt of Ona results in little to no seasonal variation. While this world’s climates are more consistent than many on Earth, they are hardly more tame. Ona has large and unforgiving ice sheets. The lack of a significant spring-winter cycle turns the northern landscape into a frozen waste, in which few plant and animal analogues can survive. Harsh desert expanses are another result of a less tilted world, pushing life that dwells here to their biological limits. These extreme climate zones reduce overall biomass, but encourage specialization among the species that do live here. However, Ona is far from truly desolate planet. A haven of bustling teal forests and coppery savannas appear to thrive toward the equator. Ona’s vast blue seas cannot be overlooked either, likely serving as home to even more enigmatic lifeforms than the land can support.

Naming fictional places for world-building projects is great cuz just when you think you’ve found the perfect name, you find out it also means something stupid like “dumpling” in a different language 💀

Working on another intelligent alien species, these guys are based off toad-headed lizards, pigs, and abelisaurs.
I just thought mouth hands would be neat.

I am still bad at posting & being active, but I am exploring spec bio & creature design almost everyday. Imaginary worlds are time and energy-intensive to bring to life… (more info about these sketches in the alt text)

Flying invertebrate concepts, an offshoot of the “chondrozoan” lineage. Dramatically reduced body segments and enlarged “eye plates” aid this lifestyle. rough concepts for a clade of worm-like invertebrates. Known as “chondrozoans”, for their mostly cartilaginous body segments. They are highly adaptable and fill numerous niches, both terrestrial and aquatic.

rough sketch exploration of the “trident” alien bodyplan from the last post. these guys are all quadrupeds in terms of locomotion, but I’m enjoying the uniqueness of their mouth anatomy #aliendesign #specbio #speculativebiology #alien #sketch #creaturedesign #specevo #digitalsketch #creature #animal
rough ink sketches, exploring shapes and common features mostly stocky grazer or low-browser: it has wide-set lateral eyes for spotting predators, and pincer-like digits useful for tearing off leaves, branches, etc. just behind the “feeding arm” is the beak-like mouth that receives the food. small fossorial species: central feeding limb is adapted into a spear-like form to pierce small insect-like prey, which is then brought to the mouth for a crushing bite.

I’m not very active here, I still like drawing weird creatures tho

this rough body plan concept came to me randomly, 3 limbs at the front and back! 😎 also 3 eyes! 👀
#aliendesign #alien #creaturedesign #speculativeevolution #speculativebiology #specbio #specevo #exobiology #creatureconcept #sketch
badger-like coloring, not a final color scheme rough sketch; shows the row-like or trident-like arrangement of limbs at each end of the animal. The central anterior limb has become more specialized as an arm or trunk to bring food to the ventral mouth. smaller, more “primitive” relatives may not show so much limb specialization and use all to walk/grip surfaces.

little alien dude concept 🤷‍♀️ I think “sphinx” may be a good name for them.

(a pretty basic design, but the “ears” at the top of the head are actually raised spiracles / respiratory lobes. also they have fleshy horizontal jaws :V)
