My vote is for the creatonotos gangis, or Baphomet Moth: absolutely gorgeous but turns into an eldritch beast when its coremata are unfurled

"They content create, I despise that
I create content"

This line has been stuck on my mind, since the day the Clipse album dropped.

I can only pray that if someone ever catches me on a content creation spiral, rather than a creative pursuit, they'll pull me to the side for a talk...

Heyo!

I’m Mehdi Ali Khan, a concept and story artist who creates epic storyboards and illustrations for those looking to bring their own thrilling tales to life.

I especially love drawing robots and all the incredible stories they can tell! 🦾🤖

Check out my portfolio site at mehdialikhan.com

An android manatee hovers around the rubble of a war zone, bathed in the light from a burning yellow sky, as it curiously inspects a lone poppy growing amongst the destruction. The robot's body resembles a naval mine and is adorned with the warning symbol for ionizing radiation, as well as a built in electronic display that reads "ARMED".

On a rocky alien planet, the silhouette of an explorer crests a mound of rocks to see a mysterious repeated rock formation, under one of which hangs a massive 4 legged insect that otherwise resembles a spider, which is currently engaged in harvesting 3 glowing purple fruits from under the rock's shade.

A black and white still from a storyboard about robots in the wild west. A slender bot looks over its shoulder where the silhouette of a wide brutish robot is visible through the hole it smashed in the wall.

A character design page for "La Aguja", a bandit knife-wielding character from an animatic about robots in the wild west, called "Bullies in a China Shop". The page features one large color illustration and 4 black and white gesture sketches, as well as a color prop detail of the character's throwing knives.

🧵 REPOSTING NOW THAT ALL INFO HAS BEEN UPDATED!

The group and I have decided to start making a push on this again!So since August I’ve been with a group of artists working together to fundraise for a young woman in Gaza. If you’ve been looking for an excuse to get some cool art, here it is! (1/2)

An image that says “ARTISTS FOR SHIMAA!!” “An artist collective fundraising for Shimaa Mohammed, a young woman in Gaza who needs our help.”

An image telling the story of Shimaa Mohammed, before October, Shimaa was just starting her final year of university, studying software engineering, and planning for the future. Despite losing everything since then, she still has a huge drive to achieve her goals. She is only being held back by genocide, and honestly she is determined to live her life regardless!

Shimaa has found a way to finish her degree remotely, from her family’s tent by the sea, and she needs some supplies, along with daily necessities to make it happen. Eventually she hopes to cross the border, travel and learn skills that she can bring back to help rebuild Palestine.

There’s also links to Shimaa’s GoFundMe and her Instagram.

GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/a-glimmer-of-hope-support-shimaa-and-her-familys-education?attribution_id=sl:0390e11d-b0ab-467a-85bb-3cdde7bb10a9&utm_campaign=man_ss_icons&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link

Instagram: @gaza4360

An image explaining how the fundraiser works, where you need to choose an artist from our Carrd (link in my bio), then fill out a request form that the artist will approve and then confirm the request, then donate the agreed upon amount of money to Shimaa’s campaign and show proof to the artist, and then receive art, and help Shimaa get closer to her goal!

Just finished this commission for my DM of a moment with his character from our campaign (psst, commissions are open btw). Had a lot of fun with the lighting, and of course with drawing a hot buff character with an undercut <333

A character with an undercut sits on a boulder in a cave in front of a fire. They’re muscular with a dark metal arm with gold accents. They’re sewing up a piece of their leather chest plate with a contemplative expression on their face
