-Poultry Cones and Megaphones-

Everybody’s yelling. Two doodles from different times made under equally different circumstances. I spent some time thinking about the shape language you can achieve with cones, as a morbid and claustrophobic tool, versus a tool for uplifting others and yourself. And yelling at people, haha.

It didn’t seem right to post these separately, since now that I look again they make up a small snippet of a story together, despite them being in separate journals.

All Tomorrow’s: Vanga Vangog’s Processor and Asteromorph’s HC’s

The grand finale of this saga of Vanga’s posthumans, and this one is on one of the saddest stories among the posthumans, the Mantelopes! In canon they had been born in bodies that made them unable to meaningfully interact in the world inspite of their sapience, and this would disappear quickly in a few thousand years as their songs of sorrow turn into regular mating songs and bellows.

Of course, that had not happen in Vanga’s timeline. Instead, the Asteromorph’s took interests on these posthumans due to the realization of their high intellect. This process, at first merely one of master and servant, would become a symbiotic one for both parties, with the Processors acting as the Asteromorph’s brains and memory-keepers, and the Asteromorphs the Processors hands and (Relative) brawn.

You can do a surprising amount with just a brain, and the Processor’s are the penultimate conclusion of that question, their relationship with the Asteromorphs making their empire far more technologically advanced and powerful than in canon, ironic considering the Asteromorph’s themselves wouldn’t become bigger brained.

-Their curious minds and natures made Processor’s extremely excited and interested on learning new ideas and things, to the point that they and the Asteromorph’s would make earlier contact with the Second Empire in this timeline, learning about all of their cultures and sharing some of their technology and ideas. This also had the benefit of stopping the Gravital’s from killing everyone.

-They kept their ancestral traditions of singing songs, their laryx (Voice box) being the only thing other than their brain to grow in size. Only instead of singing exclusively sorrowful songs, they instead sung songs of hope, rage, and so many other different emotions, including those only they can feel. Their laryx were so developed that they could mimic a ton of different sounds we couldn’t, including metal guitars, chainsaws, plane jet engines, and stuff that is beyond our hearing range.

-Most Processors are born offworld in the zero-gravity habitats of their Asteromorph Symbiotes, though there is still a very sizable trillions of them living in their home-Star system. This birthplace is effectively their version of Mecca, as almost every Processor visits once to several times during their lifetime. (With help from Asteromorph’s of course.)

-The Asteromorph’s are much less reclusive than in canon, and in fact a sizable amount of the population are now living in space habitats or even low-gravity worlds of other posthuman species. The highest populations of them live alongside the Modular People, Stickmen, Pterosapien’s, and the Satyriac’s .(Even they need to cut loose and party!)

-The Asteromorph’s knowledge of their ancient history, alongside the Processor’s general intelligence and assistance from the Second Empire, allowed them to find their ancestral homeworld earth far earlier. No one would inhabit the planet however, instead deciding to seed the almost deserted planet with new life from each of their worlds and millions of years later, when the sun threatens to blow up, they safely move earth into a new star system, allowing the introduced, establish and possibly sapient life to flourish.

-The Asteromorph’s and Processor’s of later times treat eachother like friends or even siblings, with an eachother being paired so long as they get along very well.

-After reaching connecting eachother’s consciousness’s, the Processor’s would offer their Asteromorph and other posthuman brethren the ability to do so as well, with them being able to agree or decline however they see fit.

-Once finding the Qu, this Posthuman empire would not horrifically mutate or kill every last one of them, instead deciding to strip them of all of their biotechnology, take down their leadership, and having them live alongside as equals….. the posthuman’s unwilling to stoop down to their abusers level.

-Like in canon, they would all disappear from this galaxy, but instead of it being a relatively ambiguous fate, the Author’s species would discover what had truly happened to humanity……… in that they had reached apotheosis and have left this universe altogether, instead deciding to seed new universe and life, so that they may love today, and seize all tomorrows.

Random all tomorrows headcanons go

I hope u like them !! i'd be willing to expand on these further

🌌 The Snake People had incredibly complex prosthetic arms in order to do more complex tasks like picking things up from a distance. However, they were heavy and a bit clunky

🌌 Any member of the Qu that tried to stop the transformation of humanity was turned into one of the waste-people/the ancestor of the Colonials

🌌 There was a HUUUUUUGE travel industry for the pterosapiens that dealt with novelty experiences like caving

🌌 Back when Mantelopes had sapience, hair length was really important as it signified their worth to the Qu (I figure their hair could be shorn and woven into clothing)

🌌 The Worms wore tutus. no reason for this, I just love the mental image

🌌 Rings were really prominent with the Insectophaguses, especially ones that helped with digging

🌌 Every single member of the Tool Breeders had a purpose -- to not have one was unthinkable.

🌌 Nobility within the Killer Folk would decorate their fangs with gold and silver, regardless of the metal's strength

🌌 All of the deities the Sail People worshipped had something to do with either water or flying. They would have loved dragons

🌌 I feel like Finger Fishers and Hand Flappers would have been allies if they ever met

🌌 Lizard Herders had the Earth equivalent of a centaur: a Herder who was half Herder, and half human. They never lasted very long, though

🌌 Had the Titans survived the Ice Age, they would have slowly evolved to be more bipedal, though still with the trunk

🌌 Some of the Asymmetric people built homes that resembled termite mounds

Sophont pterosaurs from my webcomic (Its releasing in 2050) They currently have three names: "The Winged Peoples", "Pterosapiens" and "The Dragons" A general run down of their odder traits: - The mysteriously evolved tail-hand, it has two palms with 3 fingers on each palm. These tails are roughly 1,5 times longer than the length of their bodies beak tip to tail base, which allows them to itch any part of their body. - Their crest only grows on exposure to an sticky hormone expelled under their belly and armpits, and it sheds every 6 months, although this can be stopped/slowed with ancient magical rituals or just modern technology (boring) - They have two functional fingers with retractible claws on their front leg because yeah - Their crest, wings, necks and beaks are uniquely painted by each individual, they maintain this paint on the same cycle as their crest shedding, and they change it every cycle. This is an globally shared trait for almost all Winged Peoples, however, in different cultures/clans they may have different meanings, sometimes the paint is used to depict their life accomplishments in their current cycle, or they may be a free expression of fashion and individuality.

bc you said you're an avid All Tomorrows enjoyer I've gotta ask you something. I've been sitting on a WIP for ages bc I just can't decide on colors... what do you think the pigments of the species of the second empire are like???

hmmmm.... honestly i think theyre fairly colorful, but also dull hue wise! i think that the potential colors they'd have besides skin tones would be like... blue grays, light yellows, light greens, and also maybeee some would have a little reddish pink? ik its popular to have them be all sorts of bright and fun colors but im probably thinking too hard about the fact they all used to be human hahaha

i really feel like pterosapiens would have the brightest colors and the most variety with dull blues and yellows and greens. though i also feel like snake people would be a close second and they'd have primarily greens! the obvious choice LMAO

(October 2022) It will be some time until I hand in my final assignments, but at least I can still draw 

1. A snake person reading a book 

2&3. Some pets for saurosapients

4. A conversation between a pterosapien and a sail person, feat. a tool breeder (and on the bottom right corner, a pterosapien looking up at the sky, having just learnt her short existence compared to her far-away cousins)

5. A hedonist and her Qu owner 

6. A parasite making bad decisions for their host 

7&8. Assorted post-humans

[beepartcollection]

Artist ask game 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 20, 25, 27 👀 (No pressure to answer all of them, it was just a really good list)

1. Art programs you have but don't use Remember months ago when Rebelle went on sale for like $10? Yeah I bought it and havent touched it since. I also have Blender but I'm too used to Maya

2. Is it easier to draw someone facing left or right (or forward even) Left, definitely. Begging you for all my net worth please never make me draw someone facing forward with a neutral expression (ie the expression on all character ref sheets)

4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw Our beloved crab spider man :3 (Godrick the Grafted). He's got some good flow to him and I think he'd be fascinating to draw more, but my god. Sweetie. Why so many fucking arms. Where is your center of gravity. H e l p

8. What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in

I don't know how many people remember this painting I did back in 2021, when All Tomorrows was popular, but I remember wanting to make a mini comic with this where this Bug Facer meets a Symbiote who takes her out for coffee and lunch and he chats about how amazing it is that in the cosmic scale of the galaxy, it was infinitesimally lucky that they all got to meet, let alone be physically in the same space, let alone survive after the Qu. Then he says he knows she's not an alien anyone's ever seen before, her method of stealth was terrible, and then asks her about her culture. I believe it ended with her begrudgingly knowing she has to run back home, but she's happier now because she finally got to see this grand cosmic unity between posthumans the rest of her people refuses to interact with. Along with this was a comic in the same vein about a family of Pterosapiens, and it's just about a little kid on her first day of school and the family encouraging her to go and have fun, and it's a comic about how love persists even after we're gone.

20. Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy Well other than Godrick, I really enjoy drawing and rendering armor! I also enjoy drawing the tf2 mercs as they really are- just guys. They have fat, wrinkles, bits of grey hair, scars, hair, etc. I really dislike when people take those qualities away.

25. Something your art has been compared to that you were NOT inspired by Disney. I reeaaally don't look like Disney. I also really don't like Disney. Just a- and I really hate using this word- normie saying anything that looks vaguely cartoonish is Disney.

27. Do you warm up before getting to the good stuff? If so, what is it you draw to warm up with Oh god my fatal flaw is I spend too much focus on the warmups and never get to like, the good shit. Or I just jump right into the good shit, knowing I spend too much time on warmups, and then burn out cause my dumb ass is like 'why does my art look bad why cant i art today'

big all tmrws doodle dump. i bet noone can guess what my fav post human is

[ornisapiens]

A fan made All Tomorrows family tree I fussed over quite a lot before settling on this version. It includes human lineages, other earthlings, and a few aliens. I did this mainly to add context to the book's family tree and organize some groups for clarity. And if you can believe it, this isn't even the whole roster of species, but I kept the well known species and their cohorts and ancestors in the picture as much as I could.

I found a lot of trouble trying to tie posthuman groups together with the boxes (miMind will try to attach them to the nodes because the boxes are just big nodes), and conveying the less obvious connections to some groups as indicated by the dotted lines. I'm aware there are more that should've been added, but, at a certain point I wanted to avoid added visual noise.

Now there's no way all the information thus far can fit into the ALT text feature, so it's probably best to take a crack at it here.

The very top starts with a non-human, therizinosaurs, to contextualize what Panderavis pandora is. Or, was. The green outline for these nodes indicates it's a reptile. I stuck it in the node closest resembling a coffin because Panderavis went extinct well before it was discovered.

The modern humans split off into two nodes, the Earth Humans, and the Martians. They had eventually interbred to create the Star People, who then discovered Panderavis bones.

The Star People hereafter had almost all populations genetically modified by the damselfly-like aliens known as the Qu, or Quhanim.

Under the posthuman lineages that died out during bottleneck events are: Mantelopes, Bone Crushers, Temptors, Hand Flappers, Blind Folk, Titans, Striders, and unknown others.

One lineage of Star Person went into hiding and avoided the Qu, which are the Spacers.

The surviving lineages that were Qu modified are:

Insectophagi, Ruin Haunters, Swimmers, Lopsiders, Colonials, Parasites and their Hosts, Worms, Finger Fishers, Flyers, Lizard Herders, Hedonists, and Predators with their Prey.

Note the Lizard Herders co-existed with a reptile originally from planet Earth, which had become the Herd Lizards. As appropriate, their outline is also green.

Onwards to the second empire era posthumans as indicated with blue fill and outline, with one notable green exception. Insectophagi gave rise to the Bug Facers, Ruin Haunters the Gravitals, Swimmers the Tool Breeders, Lopsiders the Asymmetric People, Colonials the Modular People, Parasites and Hosts the Symbiotes, Worms the Snake People, Finger Fishers gave rise to aerial species and the marine Sail People, Flyers gave rise to aquatic and terrestrial species along with the aerial Pterosapiens, Spacers became Asteromorphs, the Lizard Herders became Human Steeds, Hedonists turned Satyriacs, and the Predators became the Killer Folk. Prey still exist, but some of them are farmed.

And the one species that is considered arguably more human than the posthuman steed it coexists with, is the Saurosapients. They're descended from Herd Lizards.

The big box enveloping most of these posthumans indicates they were eradicated by the Gravitals, thus ending the second empire. Although most precursors went extinct in the sense they all evolved into their second era iterations, there is at least one exception. The Lopsiders still existed with the Asymmetrics, and were wiped out by their descendants. Only the Asteromorphs, Bug Facers, and Gravitals themselves remained.

The Gravitals then subjugated and modified the Bug Facers into the Subjects.

Meanwhile the Asteromorphs underwent further changes into godlike forms. They usurped the Gravitals, who were altered into the New Machines, and rescued the Subjects, who became the Rescued Subjects. The Asteromorphs, being hands-off parents of this new humanity, created Terrestrial forms of their kin to withstand gravity and watch over their Subjects on their home planets.

These are a few lineages left of what was once humanity, and an alien with an equally complex yet unknown history enters, the Amphicephali.

New Machines, Rescued Subjects, Asteromorphs, Terrestrials, and Amphicephali are indicated as coexisting in this new era with red.

The Qu descend from an unknown species, and the Author character's descent is equally mysterious.

And that about wraps it up. I've left out fan theories around the origins of the Amphicephali, Qu, and Author alien in trying to keep this chart objective to the original book. It may outdate itself once the redux is published, and there might not be a "need" for another fan chart if CMK includes one in the redux and polishes it to a shine. We'll see in a few years, realistically speaking.
