Spacedrakes

title

sometimes I don't really care to put all these titles

aiight, this is the other half of the lore. but at the last minute [hahah ask chibi I discussed it w/her] I ended up changing the 'surprise' because of a few reasons, so there's really no point to bother mentioning it since it was nuked and that's that!

...

Crunchy bits

ha. I did say I'd explain it "later" didn't I. Damn. Guess that means I have to type all this shit out.

I'll do a 50% lore dump for now, then when I finish the other half to these images, I'll do the other half. [and itll all be on the site ive built but havent shared yet ha]

ASTARIS is not the origi...

Astaris system 2.0

updated with some changes, was a bitch because the file kept saving retardedly and creating a mysterious dumb fuck blue ring around the 2 stars for some cunting reason

I'm NOOOT going to explain anything under this post, I'll do it under the in-the-future post explaining what's actually going on here [and why] 2024-06-22 22:59:32 +0000 UTC View Post

Minor change to the Astaris system

there is 1 new astral body being added.

Pol, a captured subgiant in the final stages of death on the outermost orbit of the young sun, Astaris.

Reasoning and astrological chart reflecting the changes coming soon[and the reasons why]

Grand Matriarch Rhaeash

there are now [2] proto drakes out there [technically damian and camina make 4]

proto abyss were natural born abyss hybrids created from the breeding of a rift drake and veil drake parent. proto abyss were often born with wings [from the rifts] though far too small to use [often being around 20-30% from the combi...

Noxanima/ Nox anima

Nox anima/Noxanima:

Terrifying creatures that are a  blight in the Drake galaxy [yes, galaxy, not solar system, galaxy].

Nox anima means in the drake tongue "soulless" or more exactly "those without anima"

What does this mean?

Well, there are numerous examples of the equi...

Rika update

big overhaul--AGAIN. probably the last one I'll be touching for a while.

new proper legs

new ears

proper aberrant markings

new feet view

new hand view

added extra toes

fixed all teeth

updated bottom left from scratch [minus the hand]

new tongue

new [old] scar...

Art Book news

as many of you know I've been working on the bulk of this shit in order to put together one of several Emain related books--Today that has become a reality. I have a print company, and worked on making the mockup for how pages will look in this book [a creature compendium]

The ark style dossiers were a fun thing ...

More content incoming

Just a heads up. The reason i havent powted is im sketching the new round of creatures/designing them.

Once thats sorted ill be back to normal flow. Ill post the concepts soon, just wanna refine some of the alien critters a bit more first

Also my drawing arm is shot

Asura v3.0

did a nice thing [because I'm hella neurotic and noticed flaws] and then decided to do ALL the nice things by heavily editing the entire ref. proper canon legs, proper tongue, fixed head structure on all of the heads, teeth, bla bla fuckin' bla

Asura has always been my [best] example of desert--the others who hav...

Touc-griff

I prefer to call her my JEWCAN [because I'm a jew, hoopoes are jewish and toucans have a big nose hurrr hurrr durr]

Wanted a griffin with superior canine features as opposed to generic and boring cat.

She's got dalmation in there, and one ear kind of sticks up sometimes, and they're pretty flappy usually [...

Dossier: Nuctopan

psaspspspsps

nah just kidding, you'd want to click your tongue to summon a Nuctopan. They're the small species of "feline" native to Io. They have far larger, nastier [and also edible] cousins.

I'm very tired so I'll keep this one short

death [no mask ver]

I wasted all that time to make her face pretty, only to bury it in a mask. so here is the original cropped version before I added the sidepanels.

Amari sands[HR+animated][+ short story]

The smell of death was growing stronger now and Ezrael followed it like a hound to the kill. 

The sand was scorching hot, even through her foot wraps she could feel the intense heat with each step.  Soon enough, she'd come upon the corpse she smelled. It was an adult female Kyononix with its pup c...

Dossier: Lulyx lekt'akor

hello, yes, I hate insects. the sheer amount of research and fucking effort that goes into drawing BUGS is ABSURD. I fucking HATE bugs. I mean I enjoy watching other creatures eat them, but I hate them and want them aaaall dead. I mean outside of ladybugs, cucujos, moths, butterflies, bees and mantids.

anyway her...

big wip #2

hoping to get it done today

a very large teaser

we could say at this point 50% or more of the crew of the behemoth are varying flavors of alien dogs. XD

Ezrael coming across a recently deceased [heat, its a killer] Kyononix with a single pup. The pup is emaciated and suffering heat stroke but is surprisingly strong considering its sickly state. She opts...

Glory

In Jewish tradition, a Hoopoe led King Solomon to meet the Queen of Sheba, which may help explain why in 2008, the Hoopoe won a popular vote to become the national bird of Israel.

I got sick of seeing hatred in the fomr of "art" in my feed. sick of a call for genocide of the jewish people, my blo...

concept sketches

a few varying sized cargo freighters, haulers and carriers.

I plan to expand on it much more, as it's unlikely any space faring race would have only a handful of haulers. individual manufacturers or alien manufacturers would have diff designs.

at least once a year every year I attempt to draw space s...

Dossier: Ves'Tsarik

The 230 decibel clicks of a sperm whale can shatter skulls, explode human hearts and instantly rupture ear drums.

I gave these boys A MUCH BIGGER BOOM.

and no, they weren't based off sperm whales--pilot whales went into the snout design, the rest is a fun mix--I'll let you all guess

Dossier: Eponix

they changed a lot from the concept art, But I'm decently happy with it. Swampy blue-green colored alien horses. ye. long horse

hoofdog

generally not eaten, but occasionally their meat pops up in a market if one is killed by something.

test

after several tweaks and edits, there is a viable drake script font

the first of many [this is the capslock version]

numericals included

as I used english to type that we have a language/font it isn't legit to drake--yet.

unfortunately there is no way to 'cancel out' doubling a let...

Dossier: Reska

The Reska-a massive sea predator that glides above the ocean and swoops down to snatch fish.

They have not been tamed, but Drakes have a kinship with them similar to dolphins with human fisherman. The Reska will fly over schools of fish, directing the drakes where to cast their nets. When the fish are brought in,...

Dossier: moomoomilkies

Galabu, a big cow, but not. As a rule, drakes don't eat or harm reptilians of ANY kind because they are considered "cousins." They really lucked out with the local grazing fauna when it comes to Galabu. Long lived, friendly, generous and nurturing. Everything they could want.

In gratitude towards these beings 2024-05-10 10:37:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Dossier: Kriv'utret

While drakes MAINLY stick to their regional diets, they also partake in other foods--Like this giant water "rat" frm the swamplands of Io. They reproduce as all rodents, like wildfire. It would be nearly impossible for drakes to eat them to extinction. They have very few predators as well due to their extensive bristling with...

Dossier: bugsbugsbugs

the crunchy snack that smiles back until you bite their heads off

everyone eats crunchy beetles. tho they are obviously a snack originating from the hot desertlands of Emain, thousands of years ago. spice em up, fry em hard, crunch crunch crunch

late night twitch stream

making some crispy beetles in real time

Dossier: CHUGS

one of m favorite aliens, I know I'll piss in some peoles cheerios but yeah, we don't eat them. I think people got the idea of eating them because humans eat chickens and so "its a bird, that means its food"

nope

they lay shitloads of eggs and we eat the eggs, we don't eat the chug 2024-05-05 06:49:01 +0000 UTC View Post
