Perfect tiny bee! 🐝 Alfalfa leafcutter bee, a male Megachile rotundata, chilling on a mountain mint blossom. It’s a nice cool day so he was very cooperative and stayed still while I took a billion shots 😅
Painted my first ever resin model. Its just a random mech design i found on aliexpress and i gotta say, i did not expect to be this happy with the result. Maybe I'll weather it too at somepoint and get some more resin kits as well!

Blue milkweed beetle (Chrysochus cobaltinus) on dogbane. It was a warm day, but a sprinkle of rain from a brief afternoon thunderstorm cooled things off, plus gave the beetle a few droplets for decoration. (Montana) #BugSky 🌿🐙📷
The somewhat unfortunate thing for me is that when he hits, Eiichi Shimizu is actually one of the best to ever do it. His Linebarrels of Iron designs possess massive amounts of aura. An AU Gundam looking like this would have gotten me way more excited than what I've seen from XARX.
it looks like that one Ultraman manga design, every single MS in the trailer looks smooth with so much gribbles
And the White knight prototype is finished! There were quite a lot of challenges with the cement coming off during the assembly but I pulled through. Iam very happy with the results!! Decided to go with a completely different pattern in the end, the camel pattern in the 4th pic.
It's my birthday, and boy am I starting to feel it these days. This year's been kinda slow on the art side of things but I'm truly grateful if you continue to enjoy my work. I'm going to keep doing this as long as you'll allow me.
Alternate colourscheme again, just to fill in some space while I work on something else.

Also just to be clear I realize I'm the biggest hypocrite in the world considering one of my longest enduring mecha OCs is LITERALLY "bandaged robot with a cape and one fucked up arm." So feel free to say I'm full of shit lmao. I totally get it, it fucking rules when a robot rolls up like that.
Based on the trailer, kinda mixed on the new Gundam. Don't love the design honestly. Feels way too safe, even the updated form feels like a mishmash of "Cool Robot OC" concepts. Aliens also just don't really do much for me in Gundam. As always though, I'm curious to see what it tries to do.
Visitor from far away seas. A rather unpleasant person, not interested in affairs of "the surface", which she's forced to wander for the foreseeable future. #ashoreproject
Still a considerable way to go on this, but the exceedingly clever @mathbug.bsky.social, @tonionio.bsky.social, and @eggtist.bsky.social all correctly identified our friend as a Green Hairstreak. Not remotely misdirected by the red (or indeed yellow) herring of the underpainting. 😁
I wonder if anyone might like to hazard a guess as to our lepidopteran friend's identity?
@petrathepostdoc.bsky.social I read this important news that bumblebees have OPINIONS www.theguardian.com/environment/...
Do bees have inner lives? Slow-motion video reveals bumblebee behaviour similar to ‘liking’ or ‘disliking’
Bees respond to tasty treats or plain water based on context, a study that may provide support for establishing insect sentience shows

Something a little different! Ever since I read the Ancillary trilogy I've been stuck on this idea of Despia evolving to the point where instead of inhabiting a single body she exists as the central core of a starship crewed by a bunch of remotely operated drone frames (pic by @kruger.bsky.social!)
'The Big Top' Mongrel's titan class mecha that technically classifies as a mobile weapons platform given it's size and armaments. I Chimera class Weapons Platform designed to interchange it's equipment depending on the mission. Decorated and christened to be more 'on brand' for Mongrel.
