Broken Bones

Sadrien week - day 1

@sadrien-week

[planet-uranie]

cw: some blood, exposed bone, stitching

guess whos back on their bullshit? ( • ̀ω•́ )✧

at some point the goal is to draw a bit of each group (gotta redo my pomefire ones since they felt a bit rough ( ;꒳;) but for now we take baby steps towards it since i wanna draw fanart of like twst ocs too ive got my eyes on a grumpy pomefiore fish and an azul-hating rock and other aus too •ᴗ•

i figured with trey making him slightly off color would make sense since he could reasonably go out amongst the people (never mind his height and build lol) (ᵕ—ᴗ—)

but for cater trying to depict the "basics of a face but not seeing any details" made me think about how thatd look (○´―`)ゞso i figured caterd probs find a way to hide his face in a way that while you can see features from different angles, like the side and such, hed find a way to hide it as much as he could

monster au for twst by @lustlovehart (prologue chapter here and full monster list here) ৻( •̀ ᗜ •́ ৻) (also meant to say something between now and then but holy shit that lil brain rot blurb was just so gooood ahhhhh and thank you for all the inspo and writing you dooooo ヾ(´⌣`)ノ)

My most recent ArtFight attack against @ballad-of-the-lamb ! I love the character design for The Monsignor as well as the whole story/theme. I got carried away (and loved every minute)

shame i had to crop it to get it to 4.99MB in the attack oops lineart and cropped version below:

The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Kallamar

GUYS I DID IT OMG!

Thank to everyone who sent me their Kallamar to butcher them mercilessly into this painting. It has been AMAZING to discover how different one character could be interpreted and how each of you made them your very own!

I would have liked to give everyone good space, but I found that fitting 22 of them in, including mine, was a challenge!🤣💙 Maybe I bit more than I could chew.

I really hope I did justice to your Kallamar. I tried to be as accurate as I could, and the colour was picked straight from the reference! (Some were B&W, so I hope I gave them a decent one)

As promised, they are all dressed as Plague Doctors in honour of the new fanfic I am working on, The Plague Doctor's Mask, which has our favourite squid as the focus. Context And Thank you for 500 followers NOW TO THE CREDITS The Kallamars belong to: @adairtrashart @adrikao1008 @bloos-bloo @bonesbugsandballads @ciaosonounapersonalol @cconfusedkat @eggobuggo @ivyrosebeep @kata-the-bee (who has infiltrated with a spy, teehee) @kikorikoiko @maimoncat @mortismotorola @deqdlyowl @paruparuparuparu @pillo-makes-art @pwandiena @silentjaybird @spinchmybeloved @thetireddoktor @twooftheluckyones @wolfbanesarchive Your Kallamars are great 💙💙💙 Thank you a GAZILLION A Special Mention goes to ANON who suggested the corpse on the table be Travis. 10/10 I didn't think about it, genius. Thanks. PS: I realise Tumblr res might not be the best. So if any of you guys want a close up of your Kallamar in better quality, please contact me in DM and I'll be happy to help!

first slasher fanart ive done in forever,,,jason i miss u💔

ignore the lil guy in the corner

I kept an eye on this carcass for a while and I made a pin out of it. The lack of bugs meant no nasty stank

God forbid a body, and god forbid a living one

"That the only heartbeats that I am hearing is THAT one."

They are so prey/hunter-coded, it's ridiculous, divorce or kill each other for god sake.

So this song fits them so very well right?

wrizard's super basic guide to y-chromosome-based identification!!

for those interested, on this fitzcovery day:

a dear friend asked me to explain why i felt completely insane about the phrase "genetic distance of one" and, as usual, i got overexcited and wrote an entire thing about it complete with goofy images! it's on twt HERE, but i figured it would also be nice to pop it up here also. SO. with the caveat that it has been many years since my last bio class and this is VERY OVERSIMPLIFIED. here's

Human DNA is grouped into chromosomes. We generally have TWO of each chromosome: 22 pairs (numbered 1-22), plus one pair of sex chromosome (typically either two X-chromosomes (XX), or one X-chromosome and one Y-chromosome (XY)). That's 23 pairs, or 46 chromosomes, in total.

When producing sex cells, matching chromosome pairs will RECOMBINE (swap bits of information) - eg. one Chromosome 4 will remix itself with the other Chromosome 4, making TWO UNIQUE C4s. When the cell splits into two sex cells, each sex cell will carry ONE unique C4.

That's sexual reproduction! Every new offspring is genetically unique - new combinations of traits pop up quickly, and if they improve reproductive fitness, can be passed on to future offspring. This allows for rapid adaptation and changes in a species over time.

But what about Y-chromosomes, which don’t have pairs? They can't recombine in the way paired chromosomes can - which means Y-chromosomes pretty much only change via mutation (errors in copying DNA). Mutation is VERY slow, especially compared to recombination.

This means that when an XY parent passes down their Y-chromosome to a child, chances are high that chromosome will have few, if any, changes – as opposed to X-chromosomes, which recombine in both XX parents and children, shuffling genetic information all over the place.

Due to this slow rate of change, Y-chromosomes can be more easily tracked through the generations than other human chromosomes. A Y-chromosome might be passed down nearly unchanged for hundreds of years from genetic father to genetic son.

GENETIC DISTANCE refers to the measurement of difference between two sets of DNA. The lower the genetic distance, the more closely related the two samples are likely to be. A genetic distance of 1 means the samples are close to identical.

Because we know how slowly Y-chromosomes change over time, we know that if the Y-chromosomes of two people have a low genetic distance, this implies that those people are paternally related – even if the two people live/lived hundreds of years apart.

In the case of Captain James Fitzjames, genetic data was extracted from a set of unidentified remains (a molar from a disarticulated mandible). 17 genetic markers from the molar’s Y-chromosome were compared to the Y-chromosome of a confirmed paternal relative of the Captain.

Those 17 markers were the same in both samples, giving the two Y-chromosomes a genetic distance of one – meaning, with the genetic information available, the living relative and the unidentified decedent are more than 2000 TIMES more likely to be paternally related than not.

EDIT: DOIP I MISREAD THE CHART 16 of 17 match, not all 17!!

Along with all the information we have from the historical record, the context of the remains, and this new comparative genetic analysis, we can safely conclude that this particular set of remains belong to Captain Fitzjames.

160 years isn't long in the grand scheme. Every identified set of remains is another reminder that these were people, not just a distant curiosity. It's humbling to remember not just that we have identified Cpt. Fitzjames, but that still, today, we have a genetic distance of one.

hope my nonsense is helpful and/or informative and/or at least made you smile!! if you like this sort of thing :) cheers doves

[canadianno-gravityfalls]

HI hello!! i wanted to drop by and say thank you for reactivating my gravity falls brainworms, I've been having such a fun time with the fandom!! ALSO your posts and art are very cool and fun and they brighten my day when i see them :D

as for a question, i would love to hear more about your wotwb au 👀 particularly how the group in the bunker manages to get the shapeshifter on their side (if it's not a spoiler, of course)

OKAY. ITS TIME. First of all SMSKKFHFKJGKHFKTHKSHSKSMGMIHKMFH???????💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 Dude I've loved dragging you into my gravity falls obsession. I always get super giddy and excited when I see your art because it's just so COOL. It's so shape... Augh. Ough. Did you know you were my first ever mutual on Tumblr. I feel like you should know that.

Second. Of all. I made a drawing as a response to this question and I haven't had this much fun drawing in MONTHS

So let's just say that Dipper has a very scary conversation alone with a very angry shapeshifter, and luck just happens to be on his side!

Day 14 -- Possessed

The creatures -- perhaps 'infection' is more accurate -- known as the scurs were thought to be the most unpredictable threat in the deep woods, having no set physical form and often occupying recently vacated vessels.

"Lonely"

so, in my AU its GodLamb and VesselNarinder, but Aym & Baal aren't with Lambert. So the question had come up before in convos with friends "did Lambert have their own Aym and Baal?"

And yeah, they did, but not for long.

Lambert didn't want the lambs to suffer a life stuck in purgatory with them, and painlessly killed them so they'd be free in the afterlife with their parents. Though they always felt pained by this, they couldn't let Shamura see their weakness. They were still pained by what had happened between them and the siblings. Later they would confess to Narinder that they did feel guilty for killing them, but knew it would've been crueler to let them grow up chained to purgatory.
