For the blog
Some dubious cetaceans sighted/named by Capt. Mörzer Bruyns. Many lack good evidence but in a few cases, he was actually ahead of the curve, identifying subspecies that would only be considered valid decades later.

I bought “grape” flavoured children’s Advil months ago because I thought that would be fun but it tastes like ass and they’re too big to swallow whole so whenever I get cramps I have to eat 2-4 of these drywall dust and acetone tasting pills cuz they’re only 100mg

I went ahead and drew Koharu again. Pseudorcas are still pretty challenging to draw, but that won't stop me from drawing my OCs.

In case anyone wondered what a taxidermied dolphin looks like. I think there's a reason you see dolphin models in museums and not genuine taxidermy...

It’s #WorldWalrusDay so it’s a good excuse to repost this #HandEmbroidery version I made recently, based on an 1579 illustration.

The smallest most useless pocket on any bag automatically becomes the Pad Pocket to me. You put pads in there and then you forget about them for 8 months until you suddenly really REALLY need them

I haven’t been drawing a lot of big pieces lately but I HAVE been drawing a grab bag of cryptids, mostly obscure or interesting ones that don’t have illustrations.
A couple recent ones, the Indonesian yellow mothman and the Pingtung monster.

I was discussing this with a film school friend they were very supportive like “yeah I think that’s got potential you should write it” but I was absolutely burying the lede (didn’t mention two of the main characters are anthro animals)
This is how I tried describing them in normie terms

I’ve been in a writing dry spell so for shits and giggles I’ve been writing a furry short film screenplay called SHUCKED, about an obscure British hip hop group that inspired a young Canadian to be a conservationist. These are the main dudes, Running Buck and Two Rivers

A humble request:
Does anybody have a screen recording of the cryptid British big cat panel from TetZooCon 2020?
I want to rewatch it to hopefully glean more firsthand sources on the subject.
