A full digital drawing of a fictional alien creature called a sledder. There's three color morphs, different angles of the head, and an underside view.

And next up for the Baleen world- their pets and beasts of burden, the Sledders.
Sledders use their large front legs like skis, and propel themselves with their hind legs. They're strong enough to help the Baleens by pulling sleds over the sands and softer grounds of their range. #speculativebiology

A giant armadillo-like beast leaps at a smaller hooved creature as they run along a forest path. Two rolled up balls are chasing along on either wide.

This is the Shtolpilke, a giant armadillo like monster which rolls after its prey at top speed before springing open to seize them in its claws.

A speculative evolution illustration of two silverfish, one of the speculative king silverfish (Lepisma gigas) and the actual (house) silverfish (Lepisma saccharinum) for comparison. The king silverfish is chewing wood with its mandibles and is about 4-5 cm long (1.5-2 inches).

The Silverfish (called the king silverfish ITTL) is not exciting in this world. They are related to the real silverfish, but not remarkable. Sure, they are considered household pests in that same vein, but aside from being able to actually bite (which is non-lethal) thanks to more powerful mandibles, preference to lay eggs in cracks/gaps and chew harder materials (but not soft stone), the king silverfish is just harmless. They're still fast as the house silverfish too. So I guess they are really boring and not epic like in Minecraft anyway.

cw: bugs, insects

What if there was a "specevo" Minecraft silverfish? Like just a literal silverfish in the real world. Spoilers - its just a bigger silverfish. So what am I supposed to do with it

Digital - A collection of pieces for my World Building Project Hey all! I am a digital artist and since June of last year I've been working on a World Building project inspired by the writings of Isaac Asimov, Kenshi, the final fantasy series, season 1 of Arcane,...

I've recently compiled a handful of art I made for my world building project here: www.rpnation.com/threads/a-co...
Figured it would be good to have one place so I don't have to post them in batches of four in the replies. #worldbuilding #art #ocrp #ocdesign #creaturedesign #speculativebiology

A six limbed bat-like monster pins a smaller creature to a log on the edge of a lake at night.

A six limbed bat-like monster pins a smaller creature to a log on the edge of a lake at night.

This is the Drachnid, a six legged winged bat-like creature from the Boreal forests. It drinks blood and preys on small to medium sized mammals. Its preys only chance is to get underwater as it will drown if it tries to follow.

A rough anatomical drawing outlining main organ systems & structures. Spiral-shaped “book lungs” and a central nerve cord that runs along the belly (not the back) are some of their more unique features.

outline drawing of a bipedal but three-limbed alien creature. They use their pincer-tipped singular front limb to snatch up smaller prey, and tear into both carcasses and even some “plant” materials. The actual mouth, a small but powerful beak located just behind this front appendage, can then gnaw away :)

Longtime no post— here’s a WIP drawing of a predatory alien creature, including some underlying anatomical musings. The design is mostly the same as before, just a few tweaks that felt right to me.

Imagine a maze world with no gravity and no oxygen.
Land stretches in every direction through endless tunnels and pathways. ⛰️

A wingless humanoid species (3–8 ft tall) lives here.

What biology allows them not just to survive, but to thrive?

I have officially switched from Photoshop to Clip Studio (because Adobe sucks Hectacotylus now), and with it I have made a new ref sheet for a new alien species for Transit Mirror:

restrain them with their full weight (easier in Gexge's lower gravity), or hunt in packs, many aren't, and venom happens to be a good alternate solution to the issue.

I might factor this more thoroughly into the symbolism of TGoG during the next draft. (2/2)

TGoG-related update 🧤

I've decided that venom is a more common adaptation among Gexgean terrestrial vertebrate predators than it is among the Earth equivalent. Being bipods, they don't have limbs to spare - while some are specialized to leap on prey and (1/2)

I've been making some changes! I thought my original design for the Chrysalis didn't quite fit my vision, but I still wanted to perserve the design. So! I turned it into the Mos.
Featured on the right, the new design. On the left, the old.
