when's the last time you've looked at a tail-less whip scorpion (Amblypygi) and I mean, REALLY looked ?
come on, don't be shy, face the conventionally repulsive sweet little bug.

Phrynus resinae, my first amblypygid since 2018^^
Really happy with how it looks and to have done a paleoart of such an historic species for the miocene american ambers^^

God, if you open up the floodgates for non-spiders (false-driders??), you got solifugids and amblypygi on the table to work with.
I still can't see solifugids the same way ever since running into YT vids of the nOISES they make, LMAO. They are the angry Norwegian lemmings of the arachnid world.

Look at this thing, for Cliff’s sake. The Devil himself couldn’t come up with something this appalling.

jiminy's animal reviews: The giant amblypygi (𝘋𝘢𝘮𝘰𝘯 𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘢) is a tailless whip scorpion, and that name is the only threatening thing about it. They are a very tame arachnid that is completely harmless to humans, but you wouldn’t know it by the way you just threw your phone across the room. 🧵

I made a new bug fren today! Say hello to an out of tune pic of a Catageus (I'll try to take better pics when there's light and memory cards for my good camera available). Aren't they a cutie? Amblypygis are such adorable arachnids. ❤ #arachtober

PIDER!!!! we still do not have true spiders easily obtainable. undercrawlers are NOT PIDERS. Theyre Amblyphygi and like The Huntsman of Australia their main danger to humans is scaring us shitless as they panic and run away from us (pic turned off arachnophobuas) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amblypygi

New preprint out!
We investigated how climate and habitat influenced the evolution of body size and shape in whip spiders (Amblypygi). This is the first large-scale study on their morphology and its evolutionary patterns.

Drew an amblypygi, or tailless whip scorpion. They’re sweethearts! Fully harmless to humans, and among the only arachnids to exhibit social bonds - mother/child, and even siblings, grooming each other.
Taking lil art breaks in between other projects is nice~

Sand Tiger sharks are related to tail-less whip-scorpions by virtue of being terrifying to see initially, but are actually fairly harmless to the hairless apes who muck about in their homes.

Holding an amblypygi for a couple minutes would fix me, I think. Or an eight inch millipede.
