This adorable turkey is made from tools used in our conservation lab!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We’re thankful to have the tools to preserve and make your history accessible to you!

This delightful “tool turkey” was created by Sara Holmes, a conservator with Preservation Programs at the National Archives in St. Louis.

The feathers are made of bone folders (used to smooth out creases), microspatulas (used to remove many, many staples and other fasteners), and several types of palette knives (used as lifters, such as for removing tape).

The body is a horn folder (similar to the bone folders), wattle and eyes are made of binders' tape (used in book repair), the beak is a small piece of foamed eraser (used to clean paper, including removing mold from the surface of paper), and the feet are tweezers (used in mending to hold small fragments as well as to hold tissue used to make the mend repairs)..

I'll run, run, run, and keep running as far as I have to!

And when things calm down, I'll quietly settle by their side again. Because... I'm Vash the Stampede.

#trigun #trigun stampede #vash #vash the stampede #knives #millions knives #nai #mygifs #The way I watched the episode twice and cried the 2nd time .#God I love Trigun SO much it's insane actually #ALSO THE SOUP GIVING HIM A WHOLE MAKEOVER OMGGG #His spikey hair is back.. his glasses are blue. His jacket is black and red now and even his prosthetic arm is black #At first I thought it was the lighting of the episode but NO HE JUST HAS A WHOLE DIFFERENT COLOR PALETTE #It reminds me of the gunman in black palette where his hair is light grey and his jacket is all black !!

Playing around with the color wheel WEEE

#self-indulgent doodles babyyy #mostly a mix of pose studies and chibis #my fave color is green but im rly into pink lately #color palettes based on pride flags btw. except for the last doodle page #gender is like clay. its whatever i want it to be 🫶#half op vash and no op knives are so important to me #love me some relaxed/silly vw. sharing clothes or glasses #SOOOO normal about ww wearing vash's coat :DDD #and vash being comfortable enough to let his wings and feathers out around ww and not cover up his scars #also tryna come up with a name for legato-vash-midvalley trio. not even a romantic trio theyre just a couple of buffoons annoying each othe #midgatovash? legavashvalley?? VHS as in vashhornsummers?? valleybluestyphoon???#god im so bad at coming up with names.....#i'm mainly thinking of their dynamic in '98 but trimax also works #so much flavor to this trio imo #anyway. it's fun playing dress up with characters and trying to find what would fit their style and all. i wanna do more of that #trigun #vash the stampede #nicholas d. wolfwood #vashwood #millions knives #legato bluesummers #millionsummers #midvalley the hornfreak #shinxo art

Rem...Rem...we were no good...right from the start. We...I...should never...have been...born.

Trigun Volume 2, Chapter 8

[ALT ID: A vertical comic of Vash and Millions Knives from Trigun. The top of the comic shows Vash on his hands and knees with his teeth bared and wings out; the middle section shows Knives with his wings and giant sword arm out; the final section shows the two of them as children, standing together while Knives is throwing his hands up in excitement and Vash is grinning at him. Over the comic is the quote, "We were no good right from the start."]

#trigun art #my art #vash the stampede #vash #millions knives #i have another version of this and i couldn't decide which to go with #but ultimately decided that the red wings looking like blossoms/blood was probably more thematically appropriate #tho i prefer how the other palette works with the last and first section #actually really the only reason other than symbolism that i didn't go with the other palette is bc u can't see all the tiny lines in knives #sword thingie/vash's face adskjlfhgj #let it not be said that i kill my darlings too readily

“Just what is it that runs in your veins, Jedao?”

“You’re welcome to cut me open to find out. Knife’s on my left hip if you forgot yours.”

“Oh, I intend to.”

spent most of my Sunday on @figuwhump day 12, which dovetailed really nicely with a couple of MoE thumbnails I was saving. ‘this looks like consensual kink, is this actually whump,’ you might be asking, and to that i say, with Kujen & Jedao it can be both

#nirai kujen #shuos jedao #machineries of empire #laurelnose art #figuwhump #Consensual But At What Cost #i was gonna do something different w/ the colors but while i was fucking about w/ my layer masks i did this by accident #instant contemporary romance novel color palette just add water. anyways that juxtapostion is hilarious to me so it stayed like this #p.s. i still can’t believe these lines are from their first meeting.#this is an insane thing to say to one of the space emperors who you KNOW is involved in human experimentation #and jedao?? meant it??? he actually lets kujen bring knives into the bedroom later??#kisses jedao’s nose. you have shitty taste in men and you flirt like a man with a death wish and i love that about you #🦋🦊
