Misunderstood The Anatomy Of A Drawing So Bad I Had To Make A Character About It
Misunderstood the anatomy of a drawing so bad I had to make a character about it
Peach Tea!
A 28-year-old human...cat...centaur...thing who lives sometime in the 23rd century on Earth. She likes the 1980s and fabrics and consequently neon-level bright colors, though ancient fashion generally wasn't made for hexapods so she's had to make a few personal changes. She's a tailor for people with unconventional body plans, whether they need more sleeves for extra limbs or can't fit into gloves or their torso isn't the right size or shape for a shirt.
Tea's 6'8"/178cm when bipedal (though usually isn't very comfortable standing/walking upright, mostly owing to her short limbs), 5'1"/155cm when in her default quadrupedal position, and about 2'6"/76cm at the shoulder when hexapodal. She's probably around 180lb/82kg? All of her feet are hands. The fingers of said hands aren't particularly suited to bending backwards, so she walks on her knuckles most of the time.
She looks sort of startled/uncomfortable here but her resting face is somewhere between the ones in the upper left and lower right. She's usually pretty content and laid-back, if moderately blunt.

Presenting: Shiny Dragons
(It's kinda long [though not nearly as long as my other worldbuilding projects], so I'll put it under a readmore just incase)
Description:
Springdragons -- Polyceros jubatus
Origin: World with Earth biology
Mammalian dragons descended from carnivorans whose caste system favors perceived beauty.
---
The main factors:
-Shiny, bright(ly colored) scales / matte or dull, brown or otherwise colorless scales (most important)
-Multiple long and smooth, spirally curled horns / one or less pairs of short, straight or bent horns
-Long, bright or rich manes / short and very dull manes
-Striking patches of differently colored fur or skin / monochromatic fuzz
-Long top canines (usually visible when mouth is closed) / short teeth
--
Minor beauty traits in Springdragons:
-Multicolored scales, horns, and/or manes
-Long eyelashes
-More scales (e.g. extra scales in places they aren't usually, and the scale-border pushing farther down the head, neck and stomach)
-Longer and thinner ears and general face shapes
-Shiny horns
-Brightly colored irises
--
Families of Springdragons are very large and those of dulls can consist of up to around a hundred members (though most are closer to 80). Bright families are smaller, with around 50 each, and the Queenscrown family is the only long-existing family with under 20 members. Families are grouped based on characteristics, such as Aryxes and Jakenses having six or four horns, respectively, Valenses having the characteristic heart-shaped scale above their snout, and Markhors having rough curled horns, though some do not possess these traits as they are not directly related, sometimes partners or adoptive children of ones in the family. The major traits of different families are often not mutually exclusive, allowing many dragons the choice to join either/any of their parent families.
--
(The following lists the characteristics of the pictured families.)
-Brights-
Queenscrowns: Green scales and mane. Exceed all the primary four Bright characteristics and have most of the minor traits expected of the upper castes.
Aryxes: Six horns and checkered scales.
Banis: Long feather-like scales, curled horns, and longer-than-average canines.
Stellenes: Pastel scales and four horns.
Razzes: Bright electric manes, very pale fur and six horns (though the first pair is greatly reduced).
Willohs: Long, thinly striped manes, light fur and relatively straight horns.
Valenses: Dark fur with the first scale on the snout being heart-shaped, banded horns.
Theriises: Short horns and long curled canines.
Jakenses: Fiery colored with four horns and longer-than-average front teeth.
Markhors: Relatively dull, with rough, curled horns and extra scales above the ears.
-Dulls-
Trias: No horns, stripelike scales and skin pattern.
Silzens: Pale fur, long straight horns, dull purplish scales.
Taruses: Horns bent upwards at the end, dark fur with white patches and dark scales.
Plintis: Thin horns pointing straight up, short faces.
Fenzis: Colorless scales and fur, short horns.
Ineshias: Long manes and horns, warmly colored scales.
Vesvens: Long, fluffy, fur and manes, small horns.
Choccens: Branched horns, dark scales.
Mowsens: Dull scales speckled with brighter colors.
Siufals: Fur between bluish-green scales, flat heads.
Cennis: No manes, large teeth.
Bovsis: Horns bent sideways, short curled manes.
Enkels: Short and dark horns, with paler fur and scales.

#THAT WENT FROM 0 TO 100 REAL QUICK
YOU WERE NOT KIDDING
[Start ID. A digital drawing of Gabriel and V1 from Ultrakill in super-saturated, pixellated colors. It seemingly takes place during phase two of his second fight, judging by Gabe's bright yellow-cyan wings and the consequent blush shining through his helmet. Gabriel is pictured on the left, facing the left side of the screen with his head turned to V1, preparing to strike them with the bloodied spear in his right hand. Small but frequent splatters of blood dot his armor and outstretched wings, fabrics torn through in places. V1 is on the right, aiming its piercer revolver at his face. Their arms are stacked in pairs on either side, idle Feedbacker and Knuckleblaster on the left and Whiplash tucked atop their default arm on the right. Both parties are stylized to resemble insects, Gabe with beetle wings and a halo in the shape of antennae, and V1 with the four wings, four arms, short antennae and bristles expected of a dragonfly. End ID]
woah.... happy 1 year anniversary to gay people
also a couple alts (background removed, just gabe, and just v1, respectively) in hopes it'll be a little easier to understand what's going on and all!
additionally once again: special thanks to @magnumopos and @muzzleroars , neither of which I have actually spoken to in my life but both of which are credited with partially inspiring this! (dedicated section under the readmore due to the fact I do not generally tag people at all ever and wasn't sure if I should, but thought it was worth mentioning!) The former for giving me the wonderful idea of dragonfly V1, the latter for drawing V1 like a strange little creature + for the feedbacker plate, I enjoy both your works :]
(retroactively, on march 27th of 2024, assigning them a full bingo with credit to deep-space-lines. ehehehehe)
cordycat! cordycat!
I was looking through a lot of the posts of @lagt-duck because (hollow knight! undertale! spiritfarer! slime rancher!) and noticed they had, on several occasions, drawn and designed mushrooms. so I thought. mushrooms!
They had designed sort of humanoid fungal creatures, but I, in my love of biology and interestingly, entomology, realized there was an actual way fungi locomote. and that's by infecting bugs and using their undead bodies as hosts! Luckily, fungi like cordyceps can't actually control larger beings/vertebrates like humans and cats (though I'm not sure where the line blurs?)
The cat host is very much dead and Tan is the cordyceps within--not usually smug, but who wouldn't boast after finding a new body to move around in that's like, 28154x the size of your friends?
(They haven't...really...figured out expressions yet)
This is actually the first piece so far that's recent, since I have a lot of art to catch up to!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU'VE AGED
I INDEED HAVE. ONE WHOLE YEAR, IN FACT
[Start ID. A drawing of @mieczmaszyna 's character Izzy. In the words of its creator, Izzy is a humanoid robot with a white chassis, oval head, black headset, square green glasses, claws, and a tail resembling a cable plug. Ai wears a cowboy hat, vest decorated by a star and bottle cap, pants with tassels, spurred boots, and a red bandanna. He's viewed from the side, kicking up one leg and holding both arms out in front of itself to shoot finger guns, looking excited and rather jaunty. The background is a dull yellow-green, muddied by the warm reddish tone of the drawing, and in paler green are the words "BANG BANG!!" by ais arms. End ID]
robot cowboy!!!
cant believe every single ultrakill character is trans. happy pride
i put “All I Want for Christmas is You” through a MIDI converter, and then back through an mp3 converter
the result is this garbage

Heya, I'm Peridots, your average digital artist/entomology enthusiast—they/it/he or any pronouns, please! Haven't actually posted much art in quite a while, so be prepared for occasional Bug Facts and other such randomness. Spam likes and such are all appreciated here! Terfs, zionists and the like can turn 180° for free, however! Profile art by original-character-chaos—oooooh looks like someone sent me perfectly pfp-shaped gift art of my sona a little too close to april fools!
