Never not a good time to post old watercolor bug doodles
Two bugs illustrated in a loose watercolor. The top is a colorful moth with ornate blue, white, and gold patterns on its wings. The bottom is a true bug with large, horn-like appendages coming off its thorax.

螃蟹惡魔追殺一個魔法少年。我不是和螃蟹惡魔一夥的，只是另一個剛巧要取他頭顱的魔法少年。我的武器是書頁，撕下來向人丟以達到攻擊效果。

在一個草坪我的同伴用摔角鎖技制服了少年，我舉劍砍下去––可能是力度或技巧不足，砍不乾淨。一個路人好心教我砍頭的技巧，讓我再試試看。

我輕輕托着少年的頭（半枕在我的大腿位置），心想：希望不會弄髒我的毛衣。

A dark grainy black and white scene. A dark, spiked mast set against a maelstrom of swirling matter. in the sky, a moody moon radiates into the abstract storm.

Day 08 - 'Alalã (Hawaiian Crow) 🪶
#AvianAugust #AvianAugust2025

Did you know that along with New Caledonian crows, they are among the few crow species that naturally use tools without training/social learning?
Digital waterpainting of a stylised 'Alalã (Hawaiian Crow) fishing out a fat, yummy grub with a curved stick in its beak. Its plumage is chocolate brown with touches of pink and olive.

A pair of Gang-gang Cockatoos have stopped by a few times this week! The male is camera shy, but I managed to get a few shots of the female.
#birds
Photograph of a female Gang-gang Cockatoo - a grey parrot with light grey beak and orange/yellow edges on its neck and breast feathers. It appears to be nibbling on a dead branch, but was actually climbing it and using its beak as a hand (as parrots tend to do). In this light its eye looks brown. Same subject, but different lighting and pose. This is a more conventional bird portrait, with the cockatoo's back to the camera but the head turned side-on. Its soft, willowy crest is raised and its eyes appear much darker in this light. Its grey back feathers have light grey edges and thin yellow bars.

🌊Shanhai jing 25: Li, the mythical quail with black patterns and red neck plumage. The description sounds like pretty normal quails… maybe they were kinda mountain quails.

black and white comic panel a triangle shaped person stands before a door in a long hallway. a strange portrait is on the wall. triangle says: I will search the story the storage interior is a plain rectangle drawn in no perspective. darkness fills the rest of the frame. the top of the rectangle says STORAGE. there are five items inside: a claw hammer, a length of coiled rope, a saw, a baseball, and a jug of some liquid triangle says: The storage is full of tools and equipment. triangle stands still in the same space. a pensive look is on their face. triangle is now mid-exit from the storage, disappearing into the darkness. they say: Time to leave.

Grayscale comic panel: Triangle shaped character and Diamond shaped character are on a road loading to a church by a dark lake. Trees and tufts of grass are seen in the area. The rendering of this and the next 3 panels is reminiscent of strange, antiquated game graphics Triangle says: GO TO CHURCH. Inside the church. There are alcoves on the walls containing unlit candles and an altar in the back, beneath a giant cross. Triangle and Diamond stand in the foreground. Triangle says: BENEDICTION TIME. Rumble, rumble: the whole church interior has titled. Triangle and Diamond are surprised. Diamond says: CHURCH IS MOVING? In the upper left, a dropshadowed window labeled MOVEMENT PHASE has appeared. It depicts a grid reminiscent of the scene in the first panel. The church is sliding to the west, of its foundation and into the lake. The titled church is now filled with dark water. Triangle and Diamond are up to their noses in water. Text like a status update of error message covers the top of the panel. It says WET!! WET!! WET!! WET!! WET!!

A very furry moth in the genus Trosia. It flew through the rain and got some water in its eye so it looks like it’s crying 🌱

#insect #macro #nature
A moth on a stick. I picked it up on the stick to photograph it. The wings are covered in cream scales but the wings themselves are bright orange and they show just a bit among the scales. There is a line of black dots running from the middle of the wings diagonally towards the bottom tips. The thorax is covered in fur, cream with longer tufts of orange. It looks like a fancy cape a king might wear. The face is very furry and bright orange with black eyes and antennae. The legs are furry and bright orange close to the body and then black near the feet.

blue tiger! i love to take photos of my paintings in a bad light it seems 💙
#art ✧ #painting ✧ #tiger
Circular canvas with a painting of a blue tiger that is floating in the middle of it. The background is pink and orange. The tiger is very stylized, curled up and is showing teeth and tongue. One of the eyes is floating next to the animal. There are very thick black stripes on its back and tail that's curled from the tip. White belly and part of the face as well as a couple of little details around the body. The claws are long and sharp.
