Drawn at #WeltderGifte: Nyctimantis brunoi, an orb weaver, a tarantula and a golden dart frog. This tiny zoo-museum is the only place in the world outside of Brazil that N. brunoi can be seen! And it is a really weird frog - it can envenomate you by headbutting you! Wild!

I need every single male artist that follows me to read this. It's not very long. You need to bear witness to this shit. You have to see it with your own eyes because you never will in your everyday life.

I'm serious, read it all please

Various sengis reffed from photos. Also known as "elephant shrews", sengis are more closely related to elephants than to shrews.

stumbled randomly to your profile and want to say I really like seeing this style! Makes me feel nostalgic & it's so pleasing to the eye. Nice designs!

More tiny toys from my collection painted with watercolor pencils. As you can see, this toy line includes some fantasy creatures too.

Interest check: I had the idea of doing a limited number of commissions with watercolor pencils - they'd be small formats and I could ship the original

A drawing titled "psst genetic engineers: I have a proposal." It shows ten duck species being combined into one best duck, which has a long-tailed duck's tail plumes, a king eider's wing spikes, a hooded merganser's hood, a white-winged scoter's eye markings, a redhead's eye and red head, a ring-necked duck's bill pattern, a northern shoveler's bill shape, a northern pintail's neck pattern, a harlequin duck's blue, and a ruddy duck's upturned tail.

An oldie about ducks and ignoring scientific ethics.

"I then came across the most helpful piece of the puzzle from a veteran cameraman, in a forum post I can no longer find" is the kind of sentence that hooks my attention. the lost, forgotten lore of a bygone age.

this type of movement is called "rectilinear motion" and is one of the types of snake locomotion

was drawing a gaboon viper at #weltdergifte named Lady Di, when a little girl came over and asked me "how did you do that?". I confusedly replied "with a pencil - you want to try?" and gave her a short art lesson. She did extremely well

some more postcards I sent in 2025! The largest ammonite that ever lived, a bald ibis (which used to be common in Europe in the Middle Ages), a fossilised coral and a bird known as "cock-of-the-rock"
