Another Drawing I Dug Out Of My Discord To Finally Publicly Post, This Time Of What I Imagine Murderbot’s

Sketch of a cross-section of a the humanoid cyborg character Murderbot’s internal anatomy, showing its artificial skeletal and muscular structure as well as its brain, heart, lungs, and other artificial organs. Each organ/bodily system is labeled and explained below.

Another drawing I dug out of my Discord to finally publicly post, this time of what I imagine Murderbot’s internal anatomy to be.

A breakdown:

Brain: Includes human neurons, a combination organic and inorganic hypothalamus, and computer brainstuff (including the threat assessment and governor modules)

Sensory Organs: Very sensitive and adjustable eyes, ears, and nose. Technically also includes the plating on the back of its head to allow it to wirelessly link up with other digital systems and the nerves all along its body

Respiratory System: Lungs are small and unidirectional, more akin to a bird’s or reptile’s than a mammal’s for greater efficiency. (Thank you to Your Dinosaurs are Wrong for teaching me that.)

Heart: Also small. Transports everything to the right place including oxygen, energy-source molecules, hormones, immune system nanobots, and so on

Power Cells: The main power cells are situated in the chest. There are power cells surrounding the brain stem and spinal cord to better fuel mental processes as well as cells in the abdomen just in case the main ones become damaged or depleted. It also specifically has power cells just for its arm guns

Waste Management: It may not eat, but its cells would still produce waste. This inorganic organ is for holding and processing said waste (as well as pathogens and other unuseful materials). It decomposes these materials into something that can be breathed out, used as fuel, turned into new cells, or (rarely) just sit there until these organs are drained or replaced during surgery

Cell Production: To reduce the risk of genetic mutation (and to make up for the lack of bone marrow), all new cells and nanobots are produced here from stem cells then distributed to the correct parts of the body. This is mostly just red blood cells, but also includes a few other cells. Note that my current headcanon is that constructs can heal on their own, but far slower than humans and are near completely reliant on external medical care to repair damaged body parts

Hormone Producer: It mostly makes adrenaline, but it can make other stuff too like oxytocin

Support Structure: Very tough and not as heavy as you’d think futuristic metal. Arteries and veins flow through it

Muscles: Mostly inorganic

Guns: It has energy projectiles in its arms. I do not understand weapons, so that is all you’re getting

Subcells: Because its limbs are detachable, its larger joints have power cell + waste management systems in them to keep the organic parts of said limbs operational for a short period of time. Also helpful as an extra source of power and waste management when the limbs are attached

Immune System (not shown): All constructs have a nanobot-based immune system that does a pretty good job of protecting them from pathogens that would harm their organic parts. This artificial immune system is pretty aggressive since constructs can’t reproduce and don’t have to keep other microorganisms within them to survive

Portrait drawing of a tall, light gold, buff wolf lady and a short dark-skinned thin, human man. The wolf lady is dressed in a sleeveless leather top, revealing a tattoo of flowers on her arm. The man is dressed in feminine, purple, Victorian attire.

My friend @tytoalbias recently created a new DnD character, Elleguire Dubois. Upon learning Elleguire’s backstory, I took a liking to his very queer, very GNC, and very lycanthropic family and decided to draw my take on the Dubois parents.

A digital painting of an Earth-like planet as seen from outer space. In the background, the planet’s star and a faint blue nebula can be seen.

Taking a bit of a break from designing furries and diving into something I haven’t done since high school, space art. I would usually just manipulate photos to create such images, but I wanted to try my hand at drawing and painting instead (especially since I use Procreate now instead of Photoshop). There’s a lot of areas I know I can improve, but it was nice jumping back into an old favorite art genre of mine.

Finally Finished My Half Of The Older Frisk/Monster Kid Art With @evrgloww. It’s Not Much, But The

Finally finished my half of the older Frisk/Monster Kid art with @evrgloww. It’s not much, but the project has been helping me get back into the swing of doing digital art (and art in general). I ended up drawing up half a dozen draft sketches before settling on something that looked good, but wouldn’t break the art side of my brain.

I’m also pretty sure their version of MK is much taller than how I just drew them.

Relationship web of 7 different anthropomorphic animal characters.

Some ideas (subject to change) on my furry characters and their relationships. And because this a terrible diagram, here’s the info in text form.

Matonne Cerise and Bev: Each other’s main romantic (and sexual) partners. Their love language is making all manner of animal noises at each other and cuddling a bunch. They have a shared love of speculative fiction, abstract art, food, and encouraging each other to be bold.

Matonne and Camry: They date, sometimes swap clothes. They in particular like to have group dates (and sleepovers 😉) with each other and their main partners.

Matonne and Flora: Probably the most physical of the two’s platonic relationships, since both of them crave physical affection. Occasional bedmates.

Matonne and Octávio: Housemates and drag performers who work together. Most of their bonding is over fashion. Every so often they’ll, uh, share a bed.

Matonne and Joan: Matonne highly respects (and is slightly intimidated by) Joan who admires Matonne for his artistry. Joan sells the clothes Matonne makes in xir store.

Matonne and Tristan: Neither of them quite know how platonic or romantic their relationship is. Both are really good at (and comfortable with) listening to the other vent. And yes, Matonne’s bed is open to Tristan too. Bev and Camry: Met through each other’s main romantic partners. Like going out for sweets together, with or without their partners. They love talking with each other about their crushes (which include their current partners).

Bev and Flora: Best friends who met in college and currently live together. Bev and Flora helped each other out a lot in their queer journeys. Bev has a slight crush on Flora (Flora knows). Traded entire wardrobes.

Bev and Octávio: Gym buddies who also trade recipes. They also both really love speculative fiction, mostly movies though where they fawn over the costumes.

Bev and Joan: Joan sells Bev’s books. Bev is less intimated by Joan than Matonne is.

Bev and Tristan: Gaming buddies. Sometimes Tristan proofreads Bev’s writing.

Camry and Flora: Lovebirds. They’re constantly reassuring of each other through hugs, and head pats, and words of affirmation. They’re both can be pretty sensitive, and are both the most understanding of that for each other.

Camry and Octávio: They absolutely love clothes shopping together. Often these two, plus Flora, will just give each other makeovers.

Camry and Joan: Camry works at Joan’s shop and lives with xir. He’s often very jokey with xir and is the only person Joan trusts to run the shop without xir.

Camry and Tristan: Cousins, best friends, and roommates. They’re always finishing each other’s sentences (and sandwiches) and playfully bantering. Camry is the person Tristan near always turns to when he needs physical or medical assistance.

Flora and Octávio: Octávio teaches Flora makeup. Flora teaches him board gaming. Octávio can sometimes be a bit much for Flora, but he’s learning to tone down his intensity around her.

Flora and Joan: Flora was at first intimidated by Joan, but xe quickly made sure she felt welcome around xir. I mean, Flora is at Joan’s house a lot.

Flora and Tristan: They trade gaming and gender tips. Frequently mistaken for siblings in public.

Octávio and Joan: Octávio is the muscle of Joan’s store, taking care of most of the heavy lifting. Joan is probably the only person who can reign in Octávio’s wild energy.

Octávio and Tristan: They did it once together when Tristan was still figuring out his orientation. You’d think this would make things awkward from then on, but actually, they’re really chill and hang out a lot.

Tristan and Joan: Joan may be Tristan’s boss, but they’re almost like family at this point. Joan is pretty lax with Tristan when it comes to his work and understands his limitations and medical needs. They both bond over media and art preservation which they use to guide the direction of the store.

One of the things I love about TMBD is how certain things are described with far less detail than you would expect, including the appearance of several major characters, leaving a lot of wiggle room for interpretation.

I did, to varying degrees, pull from the Subterranean cover for Home: Habitat, Range, Niche, Territory (Book 4.5) for the characters that appear in the illustration, but the information in the text was the only strict limit I put on myself.

Well that, and the colors assigned to each character. There’s no way I wasn’t going to give each of them a specific hue.

[Image Description: Drawing Of Three Clown Children Laying On The Floor While Watching A Video On A Tablet

[Image Description: Drawing of three clown children laying on the floor while watching a video on a tablet together. End of Description.]

Been a while since I’ve posted anything, so have three clown children watching a movie together. Specifically, it’s the royal Klownikov kids from the webcomic @cirqueduroyale. I highly recommend you go read it if you like soft or slice-of-life fantasy.

From left to right are Claudette, Red, and Charlie. I originally was just going to draw a headshot pic of the twins, but since it’s been so long since I’ve drawn an actual scene, I thought I’d take just draw all three of the kids doing something together.

'Donuts — Blue Background' Contrast Tank by Kat A.
• Also buy this artwork on apparel, phone cases, home decor, and more.

[Image Description: Photo of a person from the waist up. The person is looking at the viewer and smiling. They are wearing a pale blue tank top with a pattern of donuts in various colors on it. End of Image Description.]

A little something I’ve been working on for the past 2 weeks. Since I love fashion and patterns made up of “unconventional” components, thought I’d try my hand at making something like that. It’s nothing spectacular, and I don’t expect much to become of it, but it was nice to try out.

A drawing of a bat-winged cat flying. She is white with sparkly flame-colored wings, feet, and ears. The background is made of blue squiggly shapes.
Similar to the previous image, except the line-art is colored. A drawing of a bat-winged cat flying. She is white with sparkly flame-colored wings, feet, and ears. The background is made of blue squiggly shapes.

Another ArtFight attack, this time friendly fire upon HazelSkye. I love me some galaxy print (or at least a gradient with sparkles) so as soon I saw this little cat-bat, I had to draw her. Brings me back to my days as a teen designing galaxy patterned kitties.

[Image Description: Full body drawing of a short, flat-faced cat with matted, dark gray fur and golden eyes. Her cheeks, chin, chest, and tail are pale gray. Multiple scars cover her body. Above the full body drawing is a close-up of the cat’s face, head on and the name “Yellowfang” written in a gray, angular font. The background is a dull yellow. End of Description.]

Gold is a shade of orange, right? Right?
