I've been drawing animals over the last year and I'm excited to share they will be featured in my card game that is launching in September on Kickstarter. If you or anyone you know likes animals and competitive card games, check out our website 🦀: barracudagames.ca

Spider organs 3d model WIP. The plan is to 3d print in clear resin, with the organs as cavities I can fill with colored paint. I don't know if this will work!

(Spider experts, feel free to offer advice. Be gentle, I'm learning spider biology as I go. This is a mygalomorph.)

One of the ways I'm *starting* 2025 right is by just *finishing* @helenczerski.bsky.social's masterpiece, "The Blue Machine." Can't recommend this book enough, a beautiful treatise about our planet ocean, & with the precious wisdom of Kimokeo Kapahulehua interweaved throughout. THANK YOU Helen!

SPACE FACTS: DAY 185/365🧪🔭🛰️

Most stars (our own included, most likely) are born in clusters, where the gas and dust of an interstellar cloud have the right conditions for star forming. Over time, these clusters lose material and eventually drift apart.

Verticillium genera holds some significant fungal species affecting numerous plants.
The main morphological features are conidiophores with conidia (verticiliate) along with resting mycelium and/or microsclerotia.
