In the first one we got a Hurdia, Trilobite, Cambroraster, Anomalocaris, and you may have spotted the tiny Hallucigenia, Opabinia, and Physalactinoceras scuttling around.
In the second one, we just have the Spinosaurus and Oxalaia 🧡

In the background there's rocks, corals, and a tiny Hallucigenia on a rock, and a Physalactinoceras getting scared by an Opabinia An illustration of a moment from chapter 3 of the fic. Ed and Stede are silhouetted against the Spinosaurus and Oxalaia underwater enclosure. Ed is holding Stede's hand and resting his other hand on the glass, while Stede is pointing up at the animals in the tank. A Spinosaurus and Oxalaia are swimming side by side, the Spino is tilted upwards and looking behind him and at the surface, and the Oxalaia is diving deeper and looking the other way.

Ch 1 of Right on Target, my #OFMDReverseBang collab with the lovely @cheersm3dears.bsky.social is now out, too! 🏹🎯

Fun fact, the idea for this art stemmed from me (lefty aim) and my cousin (right handed) not being able to shut tf up when we're next to each other at the range 😎👍

Chapter 1 of Once Extinct, Now Extant (archiveofourown.org/works/67070068), my #OFMDReverseBang collab with the amazing @friendlytikek.bsky.social, is finally up!

Meet the littles at ARCPES! 🥚🦖✨

#ofmd #ofmdfanart #ourflagmeansdeath
A digital illustration of a scene from the fic "Once Extinct, Now Extant". Stede, dressed in khaki shorts and a teal polo shirt, is sitting on a tree stump and is surrounded by baby dinosaurs. He's holding a Psittacosaurus in his arms and scratching its chin while talking to Ed. Ed is next to him on the other side of a fence and resting on it, looking at Stede. In the background there's trees, bushes, rocks, and a notice board with info on the dinos in the pen.

Y'know, THAT scene.
Also the memes in our chat cause I'm the only one not shipping steddyhands in that discord server are still killing me (in both a good and a bad way)
Anyways look at them go!
An image with 8 panels. The 4 images in a column on the left show the frames from the original scene from the movie Challengers used as reference. The scene shows the 3 characters from the movie kissing each other in turns. The 4 images on the right show the same frames but redrawn with Stede, Ed, and Izzy instead. The top frame drawn by Akans, the second by Ducko, the third by Lostinthebabylon, and the 4th by Sam.whatever image of a meme from the cartoon Dexter's laboratory where Dexter is whispering into a girl's ear. The text reads Subaru, Sophie, and Subaru whispering "steddyhands" to Akans

This (late) Valentines @lostinthebabylon.bsky.social @megaducko.bsky.social @samwtf.bsky.social and I are spreading a ♥ message against ship wars: it doesn't matter who you ship, as long as they make out furiously #steddyhands #ofmd #ofmdfanart
We saw that scene from challengers and went "what if?"
painting of Ed and Stede kissing on the bed in the captain's cabin, while Izzy is sitting beside them and looking at them longingly. The room is bathed in sunset light, Ed is holding Stede's face with both hands, while Stede has his right hand on Ed's thigh. Izzy sits cross legged facing them. The image is a recreation of one of the scenes from the movie Challengers

my friend hitting me with the 1 am ideas I cannot resist
a drawing of Ed sprawled on a couch, bowl of chips in his lap, drinking a beer while giving the eyebrow and pointing a tv remote at your face discord screenshot of a DM conversation between me and my friend, where they send me a stock photo of a random guy in the pose described in the other image. They type "please for the love of god draw blackbeard like this", attached image, "I swear I can commission you about it if you don't want to do it on your own lmao". I respond "lmfaoooo"
