Here is a weirder mashup that I thought could work. Praying mantis blue heron. When I think of animals similar to a praying mantis I can only think of the stalking and snagging approach of water birds. Maybe in a world with huge praying mantises they can also fill that niche.

It's a series now! ; Cricket-cat, Weevil-anteater

#bug art #bugblr #praying mantis #blue heron #my art #insect art #bug #insect #even now I'm not sure if I was able to get that 50/50 mashup feel but this was a kinda hard one to do compared to the last two #when i tried to think of a mantis mammal i was like.. no i can only think of water birds. i almost went with a stork #you can probably mantis-ify any long beaked water bird predator #wound up kinda looking like a mantis centaur kind of thing with the body of a heron instead.. not as ideal as a true mashup

NO MORE ASSOCIATING THINGS WITH FEMMES ONLY BECAUSE THEY ARE PINK!HYPERFEM FEMMES ARE GREAT AND I LOVE YOU CAMPY FEMMES WHO EMBODY PINK BUT ALSO JESUS CHRIST CAN YOU GUYS NOT GO MORE THAN ONE DAY W/O TRYING TO SHOEHORN FEMMES INTO BEING ONLY PINK UWU BABIES. I AM FEMME AS IN GRASS AS IN DIRT AS IN TREE BARK AS IN WEEDS SPROUTING THROUGH THE SIDEWALK CEMENT. FEMME AS IN GENDER NONCONFORMITY AS IN FUCK YOU MY FEMININITY IS WHAT *I* SAY IT IS. FEMME AS IN DEPTH AND DARKNESS AND WARMTH AND TERROR. FEMME AS IN CAVES. FEMME AS IN LIGHTNING. FEMME AS IN AN AMALGAMATION OF TRAITS THAT I HAVE DECIDED ARE FEMININE REGARDLESS OF WHAT SOCIETY SAYS. FUCK IS IT THAT HARD TO UNDERSTAND?!???

#personal #i am emotional yes #over the years ive had this blog I've made a few posts abt being femme #nd whether they're serious or jokey..... inevitably someone in the tags goes “ohhh yeah bc pink”#or in the case of what inspired this post: someone going “what about the pink ones” on my praying mantis post #and im just.#sick of it. im sick of femme being equated to pink and frilly girlie behaviors.#im sick of femme being equated to skirts and heels. to makeup. to skincare. to pristine nails exactly almond shaped.#im sick of ppl acting like All femmes aspire to this shit. im sick of femms being reduced to this shit.#and i love pink! i love pink! my phone theme is quite literally just black and pink all over.#im just. so tired of any expression of Femme identity being shoehorned into being a Specific type of femininity #especially as someone who DOES get dysphoric wearing skirts. wearing dresses. embodying the femme aesthetic yall are so set on making #if u guys wanna rb this i truly dont care #i just needed to scream #and this is one small thing #but the 2nd largest category of anon hate i have gotten since making this blog is str8 up homophobia from other “queer” folks #saying i cant be femme bc of how i present. calling me slurs (and using them as such) bc they cant understand femme as anything but that #my wife and i have our users in our personal discord server set as 2 different things of anon hate ive gotten #i have had OTHER FEMMES tell me i am not femme. femmes who Know im femme who still call me butch. femmes who ive corrected and been blocked #-by bc of it. the number 1 largest demographic of queerfolk who have me blocked rn is TME femmes who embody pink also #and i dont think its a coincidence at all. (and i know this bc i go to try and follow these ppl bc they get rbed on my dash & i cant)#and ik their blogs arent deleted bc some of them don't block my wife (tall. white. butch) and it cant be politics cause her and i rb #a lot of the same political shit (fuck. i think she rbs More than i do even. this is genuinely mainly a nsft blog)#and usually i don't say anything but im having a bad day so i get to be angry about this and if anyone fucking tries me i will block u #idc if we've been mutuals 4ever. im judt so tired of feeling like i am not Enough as a femme bc i dont embody this shit #im sick of this lameass lip service to he/him gnc femmes etc when the thin white 50s housewife femme is still what is preferred and loved #im sick of this lamesss lip service when y'all feel entitled to theorizing on other femmes genders bc u cant conceptualize a femme who does #wanna be hypetfeminine. im sick of it. im sick of it. im sick of it.#celebrity bun

I have a lot of leftover drawings in my gallery. [Blank Scripts AU]

[Content Warning: Images below contain Gore, Death, and Disturbing/Uncomfortable Imagery]

I find it a bit cute knowing they start out as crazy and then slowly settle into something calmer and relatively healthier after learning to adapt to each other's lust-turned-love. [Stanley did it first but hey :3]

#tsp blank scripts au #they love each other [genuinely] theyd rather die if theyre to go without each other by this point #hhmmm I hope the last few images arent too damning #These two go through a lot during the progression of their relationship #and I wanted to showcase that yknow?#theyre demented but theyre just perfect for each other kind of way #lovingly tearing each other apart and rebuilding each other to do it over and over again #repeating this dull process of endings over and over and finding ways to keep themselves entertained #this place was never even meant to be fun #but now that theyve gotten entangled with each other #they cant help but want to play around #even if its just for a little bit?#work can continue later right?#they love each other a little bit too much they actually need to be put in a separate cage #like a spider and a praying mantis #is it painful? yes. is it fun? also yes. do they like doing it only to each other and nobody else? YES.#their psych is genuinely so fun to explore and dissect #I had a lot of fun making these despite how deranged they look #something about them.... it drives both to do things they would never even consider doing to anybody else... but towards each other #you know what i mean? or am i just yapping nonsense again.#horror #the stanley parable #the stanley parable ultra deluxe #tsp #tspud #tsp au #tsp narrator #narrator tsp #stanley tsp #tsp stanley

imagine play fighting with dean and holding your own and then he thinks he’s locked in the arm-bar but you just roll out and get his back with your arms around his throat and he’s panting and fuck

#help because i think im quick enough to secure the rear naked choke #rear naked choke……..n stroke?#yes. yes that. he’s getting his ass ate too #you’re welcome bby enjoy x #pfiahc is manic #i did do mma for a lil while and i do often surprise guys when im like #“let’s play fight” and then i be getting their back and locking my legs around their waist #i once had a guy laugh in my face and then get pissed when he couldn’t break my hold on him #i’m literally 115 and built like a fucking praying mantis but the leg muscles are second to none #thank cross country and gymnastics and athletics and dance and cricket for my physique #because it weren’t the fucking praying everyday that built this muscle #just fucked my knees and gave me arthritis in my twenties #smin’s going off in the tags again. does anyone read this shit?

oh him? he's just a monk. no he doesn't harbor deep desires of greatness don't worry about it

#zhu my little bug (literally)#he's a praying mantis a cricket a cockroach...#i love her #AND HE HAS DIMPLES #i imagine she's the type to stare a lot at people. and it elicits an interesting reaction in them #with this polite yet knowing almost-smile and her piercing wide eyes #also i know she's described as ugly in the books and i respect that. but i want her to be just a bit alluring in a fucked up way. like #now. this took sooo long. for absolutely no reason #i redid it like 10000 times and still didn't feel 100% satisfied but today i decided to set it free #i hope you guys like it anyway!#:)#zhu chongba #zhu yuanzhang #she who became the sun #he who drowned the world #the radiant emperor #shelley parker chan #fanart #myart

I'm using screencaps from SW:IV to study a few things– designing a shot, set design, digital painting, and developing a more realistic approach to animation character design. I really love this shot of Obi Wan-- from "too old for this sort of thing" Ben back to Obi Wan, Jedi Master, General Kenobi, total boss. (painted in Clip Studio Paint)

#RA fanstuffs #Obi Wan Kenobi #Ben Kenobi #Chewbacca #Star Wars #screencap redraw #...I totally never noticed the giant praying mantis alien at the bar until I painted this shot :|#also unintentionally the woman on the right in this shot kinda looks like Satine #I'm not sure when I'll get back to the other SW:IV s-caps-- hopefully in a few weeks

whats so funny about the "i'll become that samurai" panels is that chihiro has no idea the samurai thing was originally about hakuri's pet praying mantis. maybe there was a bit of reference to actual samurai/double meaning but it was also the bug. right. so now i can't stop laughing about chihiro mentioning the samurai thing really seriously and hakuri is suddenly flustered and embarrassed like ohhh i actually said that out loud didn't i... would he be insulted if i bring up the bug... oh no

#my post #on one hand: let chihiro think you need him to be your actual samurai (BASICALLY A CONFESSION!! AHH!! but he seems into it? :flushed:)#other hand: tell him the truth that you remind him of his dead/missing pet praying mantis (bugs are cool but what if he disagrees :[ )#kagurabachi #favorite characters #like it's definitely double meaning but i miss samurai the mantis

I decided that I want to suffer, so how to translate clone armor to fairy au...

#I wanted it to look like natural materials #so leaves and wood and turtle shell scutes #praying mantis arms for the welds #on the other hand I've decided that beskar’gam will be made from fairy wings since hard to destroy and magic resistant #however since the fairies here are jedi...#captain rex #fairy au
