#FestiveTankChallenge day 10 - we are almost there. Bases just to finish with a few tufts, crew figures to fettle a little bit then glue into place, final highlight, drybrush, touch-up and then the varnish coat and I’ll call ‘em done (decals can go on when they arrive). Fab.

New icon debut! Won’t be able to upload it tomorrow night since I’m going to a party 🎉 #illustration #art #digitalart #OC #procreate #bsky.art #artistsupport #icon
Finished piece with a snowy-hilled background with an almost twilight sky filled with stars and a singular lampost providing minor rim light. Extra filters and layers added to the young man and the smoke in front of him. Full color on sketch layer and refined shading/lighting. He wears a dark red cotton coat with shiny purple buttons at the front going down in two rows parallel to each other. A black hat adorned with a single strip of textile fabric on his head. Brownish red tufts of hair visible on the right side. The left side of his face is obscured by shadows and smoke except for a pure white small circle eye. The other eye is a light blue-green. His skin is porcelain white adorned by burnt cream colors. The small is a singular row of white straight teeth. Sketch layer with basic lighting. Black line art on a grey background of a young man looking at you, head cocked to the left smiling. Smoke is wafting in front of his face. The oddest thing about him is his ears come to a point.

Temple Run
Moss-covered stone ruins known as the Stone House (often nicknamed the “Witch’s Castle”) in Portland’s Forest Park. The photo is centered on a short flight of wet concrete steps that climb toward a low, triangular stone facade. Thick green moss and lichen blanket the rocks like shaggy carpet, rounding the edges of the walls and growing in tufts along the sloped top edge. At the top of the steps, the central wall is painted with bright graffiti: a square, cartoon-like face with two spiral blue eyes, a blocky yellow-and-white forehead, and a wide red mouth. Other spray-painted marks; teal, red, orange, and black, scatter across the surrounding stones. To the left is a small square window opening with a rough stone sill; to the right is a large arched opening, dark inside, with wedge-shaped stones radiating like a fan around the curve. Ferns and damp leaves cling to the lower right wall, and the surrounding forest presses in with dark conifers and bare branches. Despite the spooky nickname, the Stone House was built in the 1930s as the Macleay Park Shelter/comfort station (restroom and related park facilities). After the 1962 Columbus Day Storm damaged it and destroyed the water line, the city chose not to repair it, and it was left to weather into the mossy ruin seen today.

Evening sunshine, Giant's Chest, Sleeping Giant State Park, Hamden, Connecticut. September 4, 2024, 6:20 PM.

#hiking #mountains
A soft blue evening sky with some gold-tinted haze along and near the horizon. The sun is a bright golden yellow blob starting to descend towards that horizon. From a fissured gray rock outcrop atop a mountain, we are looking out at a scene of mostly forest with a couple of clusters of buildings. Tufts of tall, golden brown grass growing through fissures in the rock catch the sunshine. A forest of cedar and hardwoods rings the edge of the outcrop, but does not block the views. The flank of a nearby peak facing us has impressive rock cliffs. Beyond that is a narrow valley and several long, flattish-topped wooded ridges running along the horizon. A rounded knob to our left has a cluster of larger buildings on top.

See, that's what I have been doing since I lost this thing, but that sucks because I didn't begin with the biohacking until after my body engaged its 'Janky Old Man' protocols.

What I do is less 'plucking' and more like... grabbing tufts with needle-nose pliers.

a tranquil, nostalgic black and white photograph of a cat, wee miss roxy, loafing on the floor while an afternoon sun beams through a window in the background. the cat's body blocks the sunlight, tufts of her short fluff rimmed in angelic glow. she glances up at the person behind the camera with a curious expression

Yesterday evening's coyote - looks like he's stalking the frigid plains of the midwest, but that's actually evaporite mineral crust surrounding him. Soda Lake, Zzyzx.
A doglike mammal with gray and orangey and white fur, walking through lumpy white stuff amid which there are a few tufts of brown/orange grass.

Request Sketch #10 for @/quirkybibliophile on Threads.

#rgkg #sketch #digitalsketch #requestsketch #feral #oc #feralOC #cat
A monochromatic, sepia-toned digital sketch illustrates a stylised, long-haired cat-like creature. The creature is depicted in a curled, resting position, facing the viewer with a gentle and serene expression. It has large, pointed ears, wide eyes, and subtle tufts of hair on its forehead and chest. A notable feature is the pattern of small, diamond-shaped markings scattered across its back and side. The cat's long, bushy tail is wrapped around its body, completing its graceful, circular silhouette. The drawing is set against a textured, light beige background that features a faint, repeating watermark pattern of a stylised wolf head. The overall style is soft and whimsical, using delicate line work and light shading to define the creature's form.

If Brigitte Bardot or Jeanne Moreau would tickle my fancy I probably wouldn't be quite as harsh with my judgement... But even though #VivaMaria is technically well-made albeit lighthearted zapata western it left me cold overall. Relies too much on just BB's and Moreau's female charms. 📽️🎞️
The French poster for the French zapata western 'Viva Maria!' (1965). Directed by Louis Malle. Starring Brigitte Bardot, Jeanne Moreau, Claudio Brook, Paulette Dubost, Carlos Lopez Moctezuma, Poldo Bendandi, Gregor von Rezzori, Francisco Reiguera, Jonathan Eden and George Hamilton. On the poster an image of the film's two stars (Brigitte Bardot on the left and Jeanne Moreau on the right) kneeling side by side behind a Maxim machine gun (smoking from its barrel). Both women are wearing red dresses with black decoration. Bardot's holding the machine gun, Moreau's sticking fingers to her ears. On the top of the poster the tagline "Viva Bardot Viva Moreau". Frame from the French zapata western 'Viva Maria!' (1965). Two women performing on stage. Both are wearing long black gloves, a black hat with two red flowers, and black and red tufts, a red bodice with a black feathe boa and a white skirt. Smiling blonde woman (Brigitte Bardot as Maria II) on the left and a singing brown haired woman (Jeanne Moreau as Maria I) on the right. Frame from the French zapata western 'Viva Maria!' (1965). Close-up of the bottom half of two women performing on stage. Both are wearing long black gloves, long black boots with long black stockings and a ruffled pink and white skirt. Both have raised one of their foot on a chair and have raised their skirts to expose their raised legs.

I'm adding one square millimeter to the credit cards worth of microplastics in my body after accidentally ingesting a little toothpick fluff
Toothpicks with decorative transparent plastic tufts on the top. They are stabbed into a pickle

Note the tufts on the ottoman and the no-scratch tape on the corner of the love seat.

As a man, yeah, I think we've shown that we can't do this.

I ceded control of my house years ago. The cats are honestly driving progress here, if progress if to be measured in random tufts of hair being found everywhere.

Okay FINALLY have her appointment set up. She will be going to Tufts on February 4th, which is unfortunately the earliest we could get her in. The estimate is also here so I'm gonna see if I can get a Waggle campaign set up. If not that I may just do a GoFundMe. Please watch for that. Thank you 💖 🦜

A tree I made 10 years ago when I was first learning vs now, one of our trees in @capycastaway.com!! I love both trees and looking back at how my processes and pipelines have evolved.

#gamedev
A somewhat realistic pine tree modelled in Blender, rendered on a flat grey background. Those are probably all actual individual planes as pine needles, which is maybe why the shadows look more complex. Don't know how my computer survived this. A very stylized pine tree, with flat, cone-shaped planes stacked on top of each other that have a hand-drawn texture on them and a transparent alpha. Tufts of more hand-drawn planes stick out to give it some texture. This is a screenshot from our game, and is rendered in Unity in a colourful environment with grass and water bright aqua water in the background.

Screech owl.

📷🌿🪶🦉
A close-up photo of a gray morph screech owl from the shoulders up, looking directly into the camera. It has intricately-patterned gray, black, and white feathers that resemble tree bark and large round yellow-green eyes, with pointed ear tufts and a small curved beak.

I want to braid the tail tufts of sisters and brothers as I sing to them the songs of our past and teach them spells of chaos.
To brush hair of creatures that look like me for a change.

Flare and Fury

Colored Pencil

#art #artist #fantasy #coloredpencil #illustration #fantasy #sketch #drawing #originalcharacter #blueskyartshow
Flare and Fury is a 2025 colored pencil illustration by EthanFoxium. It features a central animalistic figure striking a pose before a background meant to imply heat radiating to the sky. The piece is made up of only the colors red and purple. The creature is fox-like, but with a human body. Its maw stretches wide, and with its head tilting down, it creates the shape of a smile as its teeth show over its lower lip. Its eyes are empty and hollow. The fur is long and thick, creating tufts that point out and make several patterns across the body. Its hands are bare, and have sharp claws. Darker spots have more purple, lighter spots have more red.
