Working on some more wheatpastes.

Trying to make these critters bigger and simpler.

I don’t want to pour too much time into any one of them because they are pretty likely to get destroyed a day or two after I put them up.

If I’m lucky I’ll get a month out of them 🤞🏻

👽 Random X-Files Fic Rec

This fic is a wonderfully evocative exploration of the aftermath of "Orison" with Scully spending the night at Mulder's apartment. Title: Atomic Split Author: Pteropod Summary: The world is glued together by the strong force, the weak force, the electromagnetic force, and gravity. Length: 12k (~2,100 words) Classification: Post-ep for Orison, MSRish, Angst Rating: PG-13 Spoilers: Orison Favorite line: Mulder's hand reached over at the first stoplight and she took it, because the car was dark and quiet and because Donnie Pfaster made her remember the feeling of blood dripping from her nose. Read the story! (If you have trouble with the gossamer link, replace "fluky" with "krycek")

Didn’t even realize that sea angels weren’t nudibranchs my bad y’all

my user is now pteropodhair

(The reason my user was that is because why Angel is called Angel is because her hair looks like a sea angel…. So sea angel hair… Whoopsy daises)

New "Learn More About the Shore" Wheatpastes about to go out in Philly.

I'm going to put these up in Philly. Fuck it. I feel self-conscious about any art that doesn't have a squid in it (I don't feel like I'm any good at non-squid), but I am trying to CHALLENGE myself artistically.

sleepless mogamiland doodles

[ID by @/pteropods: multiple sketched drawings of Mob in Mogami's World. They are all uncolored and have a grey background.

First shows him nervous and sweating, and wringing his hands.

Second shows him bleeding, his face shadowed, as he says "i don't know what state of existence I am experiencing right now", with a transparent Mogami behind him saying "atta boy!" and giving a thumbs up.

Third is Mob with blood all over his face, with Dimple to the side looking agitated and disturbed. Mob emptily says "just discovered this thing called nihilism. Ever heard of it? it's where I kill people I hate." Dimple mutters "Jesus Christ."

Fourth is Mob sitting, with one arm gripping his torso and one balanced on his knee as he grips his hair. The fifth, on the same image, shows him nervous and sweating as he says "oh, disembodied voice that encourages the worst in me, we're really in it now" /End ID]

Изящные, почти невесомые и удивительно красивые, морские бабочки Corolla spectabilis.

Corolla spectabilis (Gastropoda - Thecosomata - Cymbuliidae) , обычно называемая морской бабочкой, представляет собой вид планктонных морских слизней, принадлежащих к группе, которую в совокупности называют крылоногими моллюсками. Распространение этих удивительных созданий ограничено западной частью Атлантического океана и восточной частью Тихого океана, а также редко встречаются в Средиземном море.

Corolla spectabilis  характеризуется наличием одной пластины крыла (структуры, напоминающие крылья) и студенистого внутреннего псевдоконха, который содержит висцеральную массу. Псевдоконх может вырасти примерно до 6 см в длину у крупных животных, с размахом пластины крыла 16 см.   

Жизнь морских бабочек, обитающих на глубине около 25 метров, подчинена океанским течениям. Размахивая полупрозрачными «крылышками», они поднимаются к поверхности воды, следуя за своей добычей. Одной из самых интересных особенностей этих морских бабочек является их способ питания. Они производят слизистую паутину, во много раз превышающую размер животного и имеющую диаметр около 2 м, чтобы запутывать и ловить планктонную пищу, диатомовые водоросли и веслоногих ракообразных. Опускаясь ниже на дно, морские бабочки поднимают крылышки кверху.

Graceful, almost weightless and amazingly beautiful, the Corolla spectabilis sea butterfly.

Corolla spectabilis (Gastropoda - Thecosomata - Cymbuliidae), commonly called the sea butterfly, is a species of planktonic sea slug belonging to a group collectively called pteropods. These amazing creatures are restricted to the western Atlantic Ocean and the eastern Pacific Ocean, and are also rarely found in the Mediterranean Sea.

Corolla spectabilis is characterized by the presence of a single wing plate (a structure resembling a wing) and a gelatinous internal pseudoconch that contains the visceral mass. The pseudoconch can grow to about 6 cm in length in larger animals, with a wing plate span of 16 cm.

Living at depths of about 25 meters, the sea butterflies are subject to ocean currents. Flapping their translucent “wings,” they rise to the surface of the water, following their prey. One of the most interesting features of these sea butterflies is their method of feeding. They produce a mucous web, many times larger than the size of the animal and about 2 m in diameter, to entangle and catch planktonic food, diatoms, and copepods. As they descend to the bottom, the sea butterflies lift their wings upward.

my wonderful little brother :)) and some random blonde kid

[ID: Three drawings each of Ritsu Kageyama and Teru Hanazawa.

Ritsu is drawn in partial body for all three, and in his school uniform. He looks mostly like canon, but with darker skin.

In one he looks annoyed, another he is smiling, and in the third is he posessed by dimple, grimming menacingly. In the dimple version, the colors are more vibrant and there is a slight hand-drawn chromatic aberration effect.

Teru is drawn in headshot in two, and bust-up in one. He has darker skin than in canon, with warmer undertones than Ritsu, with lighter blue eyes. He has dimples and wears his school uniform, along with a yellow earring in his left ear.

In both headshots he is drawn with his short haircut. In the first he smiles widely and says "Kageyama!", and in the second he smiles with his eyes closed. In the bust-up drawing, he has his post-confession arc hair and looks suspiciously off to the side, holding his bag over his shoulder /End ID]
