i have new ACEOs up on my tinygallery! painted in gouache and watercolor tinygallery.io/seller/joyfu...

A trading-card-sized gouache painting of an oddly shaped glass potion bottle filled with green, glowing liquid. There is a skull in the bottle. The background is dark, with hatched brushstroke textures.

i have new ACEOs up on my tinygallery! painted in gouache and watercolor tinygallery.io/seller/joyfu...

A trading-card-sized gouache painting of a fat, rectangular glass potion bottle. The bottle is filled with clear liquid, and moss or seaweed-like tendrils float in the liquid. The background is a light green color.

Shiny new microraptor! It's been a while since I've had a fun, experimental personal project like this. He's got sharp little claws and realistically foldable wings. (I'll be carrying him around at #DinoConUK, not a vendor this year but I can't resist making a new creature to bring along anyway...)

A sparkling plush microraptor with its wings spread. Its plumage is midnight blue with silver glitter, apart from the white chest and two long white tail feathers. The face and feet are bright blue, and the eyes are silver. It has shiny black plastic claws.

The plush microraptor perches on the arm of a garden chair, balanced on its two feet with its wings folded at its sides. The secondary feathers overlap the primary feathers.

The plush microraptor leans forwards, still perched and balanced on the arm of the chair.

Evan Johnson-Ransom @ejrpaleo.bsky.social · 2w ago

For #FossilFriday, I thought I’d show off the skulls of #Postosuchus along with #Tyrannosaurus, #Spinosaurus mirabilis, and #Carcharodontosaurus. Unlike living crocodylians, Postosuchcus’ skull is relatively tall like that of a theropod 🤔. #Dinosaurs #Paleontology

Eyesight chart of the main characters from Dinoverse by Scott Ciencin for Taliesaurus' fan adaptation of the book. #Dinoverse #DinoverseFanArt #Dinosaur

Grayscale orthographic sketches of each character's heads with the range of vision in the middle with the top-down heads showing binocular vision in the saturated red. To the right is a representation of what each character would see of a forest scene with a Thescelosaurus in the center. At top is Mike the Tyrannosaurus rex, then Bertram the Ankylosaurus, then Janine the Quetzalcoatlus, and finally at the bottom is Candayce the Leptoceratops. All art drawn in Procreate for iPad by hand using an apple pencil. Vision chart is for narrative purposes and may not be scientifically accurate.

been obsessing over the OFF miis i put in my tomodachi island 🥺

the batter and zacharie from OFF by mortis ghost, drawn like the miis i made for them in my tomodachi life game. zacharie has his usual outfit, but notably the batter is in a white sweatshirt and long black skirt. i think its very cool.

daftpatience 🦗🐜🐛@daftpatience.bsky.social · 2mo ago

murderbot i love you

sketch of murderbot standing in the corner while Ratthi shouts to the group "Leave it alone it's SHY!!!"

the scene is composed just like the meme of the guy standing in the corner at the party thinking "they don't know im xyz" while people dance.

daftpatience 🦗🐜🐛@daftpatience.bsky.social · 2mo ago

murderbot i would do anything for youe

various drawings of murderbot (my interpretation) from the first and second book. first book mb has its head shaved short, and second book mb has slightly longer scruff.

daftpatience 🦗🐜🐛@daftpatience.bsky.social · 2mo ago

more murderbot fanart BECAUSE!!!

various sketches of murderbot from the murderbot diaries (mainly my idea of its appearance from the second book). there's a drawing of murderbot tuning in to a telenovela (rosa salvaje), a drawing of MB watching star trek with ART (who is going "what's happening now?"), MB in full armor thinking about "blorbo from my shows", and a sketch of it looking tired/depressed and saying or thinking "i don't care." lyrics from Jam2go's song honeycrisp are also on the page:
"(chorus) and i don't want this to end /
no, i don't want to be friends /
i'm bracing for it /
i'm better off alone /
don't you know? /
(bridge)
i don't want to be alone, but i don't try /
i'm just better off alone, and i don't know why /
how can i be sad if i don't cry? /
maybe i'm rotten to the core and i don't know why..."

daftpatience 🦗🐜🐛@daftpatience.bsky.social · 2mo ago

finished reading exit strategy murderbot is the most touch starved touch averse person everrr

various sketches of my idea of murderbot and how it looks in the fourth book. it's hair is scruffier, more brown coming in as the modified hair grows out. there's a drawing of the scene where murderbot meets pin-lee ("hi"), a drawing of murderbot pretending to eat and thinking of the AM hate monologue (faking eating is especially yucky and horrible for Murderbot, who has no esophagus and has to aspirate chunks of food to cough up later), and a drawing of murderbot injured/bleeding and looking serious.

a drawing of murderbot, curled up and covering it's face as it remembers times it was touched (or not touched) by humans in acceptable ways. there's the scene where it rescues Abene, Pin-Lee touching it's shoulder with prior warning, Tapan sleeping close to Murderbot's back, Maro giving murderbot a no-contact hug, and of course Dr. Mensah hugging Murderbot and the two of them holding hands. at the bottom is a line from Daft Punk's Touch: "I remember touch."

finally. my network effect log

drawings of murderbot. it's wearing a Pansystem University of Mihira and New Tideland (or PSUMNT) shirt and thinking "i hate this stupid anagram. acronym. whatever" (this is something murderbot mixes up in the books). there's also a drawing of murderbot with damp hair and a fluffy towel. both drawings make use of bathylychnops' clumpy mascara brush (a recreation of it since i dont use csp) for little accents around the lines. im a big fan !!

many drawings of scenes from network effect and also made up imaginary stuff of my own.
for the canon interactions: there's the part where murderbot sulks in the bathroom and amena talks to it, the scene where art makes murderbot's uniform too nice, and the scene where murderbot pretends to be overwhelmed about the crew putting it back together when it's actually overwhelmed that everyone cares so much about it.

non-canon interactions: murderbot waking up, stretching and yawning. murderbot does not sleep or stretch or yawn so this is not even a headcanon its just for my enjoyment. there's also murderbot giving a double middle fingers in sweats and a loose crop tshirt with it's favourite show on it (arrow pointing to it says art made pajamas). another drawing has murderbot in a sleeveless top, angrily demanding sleeves (art says ok lol).
last, some reference drawings of murderbot's body. it's legs are entirely mechanical looking, as well as parts of its hips and torso. many parts of its body are flesh or fleshlike synthetic material, but lacking any sexual characteristics (or other distinct body details like a belly button). overall it's androgynous, and not just default-masculine.

murderbot, watching some of it's peers and crewmembers interacting. it thinks: "IDK why everyone tolerates my weird and offputting behavior." ART is saying to murderbot: "if anyone besides me is mean to you i'm blowing everything up." the humans (iris, amena, ratthi, thiago, mensah, etc.) are all thinking the same thing: "if anyone is mean to secunit i'm blowing everything up"

daftpatience 🦗🐜🐛@daftpatience.bsky.social · 2mo ago

ok ok 2 more

drawing of murderbot wondering wether it is only repulsed by the idea of kissing humans and briefly considers kissing an inanimate object (pillow) to find out before getting repulsed by the idea.

the "why this mf look so mad" meme but with murderbot and secunit 3 - murderbot looks so mad. (and shorter than 3)

daftpatience 🦗🐜🐛@daftpatience.bsky.social · 2mo ago

really dumping more mbd art on here ive got enough for a whole pixiv log atp

drawings of murderbot in my character reactions chart template. there are many different expressions: neutral, subtly pleased, disgusted, annoyed, flustered, scared, laughing, shattered, enraged, et cetera.

a drawing of my murderbot design (built like a stocky butch bodyguard/paramedic, medium tan skin, short grayish white hair with brown roots) and a little chibi of my fursona standing next to it, bigging my eyes at it. there's text from jlaudio's tumblr post: how it feels when the thing i like is something i really like and thats because i really like it and it makes me happy to like it

some murderbot drawings: the scene in artificial condition where ART offers murderbot the option of bottom surgery so that it can better pass as human (the transgender levels are off the charts). a variety of pixelated junk is displayed on art's interface. Murderbot resolutely refuses, looking grossed out. there's also a little before and after drawing of a standard secunit in armor and murderbot's appearance later: a bit shorter with longer hair and different clothes.

daftpatience 🦗🐜🐛@daftpatience.bsky.social · last mo.

i finished reading fugitive telemetry and i had to draw my favourite part SO BAD. dont look if u dont want kinda spoilers for that idk

a drawn scene from Fugitive Telemetry (Murderbot Diaries) where Murderbot rescues a group of refugees from traffickers on a ship.

i'll just quote the text here since it does it best:

"To the humans. I said, 'I'm going after the others, just stay here -'
I felt a hard thump from behind. It was low and to one side, where a fairly important part would be, if I was human.
I turned. Human One had the armored hostile's weapon, the one I had taken away and dropped down into the module. And she had shot me with it."

cont'd Fugitive Telemetry excerpt:
"I reached her before she could fire again, twisted it out of her grip. Then I walked out of the hold and let the hatch shut behind me."

got to platform decay (im not done yettt but i got excited about drawing murderbot's new look lala)

drawings of murderbot in platform decay. there are a couple drawings of it's preferred clothing (practical looking jacket/pants in dark blues and blacks) and the outfit it wears to blend in in the beginning of the book (loose cream and brown clothing. half untucked collared shirt and baggy brown pants) at this point i've drawn all the different stages of murderbot's hairstyle. it's hair is now mostly a natural brown with only a little bit of plasticky grayish blonde left, and it's changed to a curlier texture. it's supposed to have grown a bit longer, too, but i kinda overshot the length in the previous stage hairstyle, and curls would shorten it anways, so i'm keeping it kinda where it was. hehe.

daftpatience 🦗🐜🐛@daftpatience.bsky.social · last mo.

im just gonna keep drawing murderbot stuff for awhile dont mind me platform decay spoilers and also a scene from system collapse lalala

Various sketches of Murderbot carrying Tula around in platform decay. there's the scene where Sofi falls asleep on its shoulder, the scene where Farai clings to the back of it's shirt with her eyes closed (afraid of heights), etc. in every one Tula is clinging to Murderbot's chest, and MB has at least one arm supporting her.

Three giving Murderbot a thumbs up at the end of Platform Decay. Murderbot is at it's limit for positive emotions and it turns away, hands over it's face in frustration. Three's awkward and friendly nature seems to embarrass Murderbot a lot.

drawings of my murderbot's hairstyles over the books as well as a redraw of the scene where murderbot carries ART-drone out of danger. ART-drone is jellyfish shaped and has a couple tendril arms wrapped around MB's neck. If it had eyes it would probably be looking up at MB. hehe.

daftpatience 🦗🐜🐛@daftpatience.bsky.social · last mo.

ok a few more murderbot drawimgsss

murderbot and ART being prompted with >how much do you like each other.

murderbot replies "normal amount" and ART replies "that is classified information."
an arrow points to murderbot that says "keeps a part of ART in it's chest" while another arrow points to ART and says "special secret password is murderbot's name"

Drawings of Miki from Rogue Protocol. there's a few design sketches (tezuka-esque with big googly eyes) and a redraw of the scene where murderbot has to withdraw from miki's feed when it gets upset that miki is allowed to sit down around humans. MB is crouched in a dark, small closet space, looking utterly miserable.

doodles of Murderbot with ART-Drone. in one, MB fakes sleeping with it's arms around ART-Drone. the drone's legs are spidery and splayed out around MB's body and outwards. in another, MB wonders if ART-Drone likes being held since ART prime was too large to be held by anything at all. in another drawing, MB sits back in the passenger seat of ART's shuttle, holding ART-Drone up to it's face like a book. MB asks: "do you get jealous of your own partitions?" ART-Drone replies: "that's idiotic." the last drawing shows murderbot walking somewhere while ART-Drone hovers close behind. Ratthi and Tarik look on, and Ratthi mentions: "Peri's drone is always following SecUnit around." Tarik replies: "oh?"

daftpatience 🦗🐜🐛@daftpatience.bsky.social · 4w ago

its gonna be a while before im done drawing mb stuff lalala

drawing of a scene from the murderbot diaries' Network Effect where thiago confronts SecUnit about it's "leverage" with mensah. MB is resting in a bunk with art metaphorically resting on it's shoulders (i'm drawing it as a sparky amorphous textbox that contains ">_"), and Thiago stands across from it, staring it down. the bunk below MB contains a sleeping amena, with a little filter display thing showing her bunk has a silence filter thing that art put on so the argument wouldn't wake her.

various drawings of murderbot, mostly with it's platform-decay look but a couple of drawings from earlier as well (mainly three carrying an injured MB from network effect) in other drawings art is pestering it, leaning over it's shoulder. in one, drawing, a damaged art-drone is seemingly tossed into a shocked murderbot's arms (this doesn't happen anywhere in the story). on the right there's a drawing of murderbot from the side, walking by with drones and art-drone hovering near.

two drawings of murderbot crying, moving to hide it's face/rub at it's eyes. this is something that is physically impossible for it (at least i am pretty sure this is impossible). I like to think this would be a useful modification for it to more effectively relieve stress and flush out all those anxiety hormones and stuff but it would never EVER want to have such a yuckydisgusting involuntary physical reaction.

drawing of murderbot holding Tula. Art-drone hovers nearby. Tula asks "Peri loves SecUnit?" MB would not answer honestly to anyone, and looks embarrassed. art-drone would answer honestly to a child (this has happened yayy) but doesn't want to say anything in front of MB.

daftpatience 🦗🐜🐛@daftpatience.bsky.social · 3w ago

some emotional support secunits lalala

murderbot, standing with it's arms crossed. it looks mad (the usual amount of mad)

murderbot and secunit three walking alongside one another, with some drones flying along behind. mb looks it's usual amount of wary, and three has a more open/curious expression. I like to think that mb has less of a personal space issue around other secunits for the same reason that secsystem sees them all as components instead of individuals - even if it doesn't realize this and would swear it is even more wary of other secunits in general.

Brown pencil drawing of Mononykus, a small, feathered theropod dinosaur with long, thin legs, a fine snout, and extremely reduced forelimbs, each possessing a single enlarged claw, possibly used for foraging insects within the log on which it stands.

if i knew there was a 100% chance I would not survive Jurassic Park I'd still go. My loved ones would have to physically restrain me to keep me off that helicopter.

ex-Lethality Jane@lethalityjane.bsky.social · last yr.

Jurassic Park is a perfect franchise because the question "why would they keep doing this" is answered by simply asking yourself if you would want to go see a dinosaur. Of course you would want to see a dinosaur.
