Do You Have Any Underrated Artists You Would Recommend?

Reblogging on main to say I had this happen a week or so ago when I went to a museum.

They had a Tsintaosaurus skeleton there (Tsintaosaurus was a hadrosaur with a sort of unicorn horn), and I had expected hadrosaurs to be about the size of a cow, or maybe a horse at most. Nope. They're almost four metres tall.

So imagine all 5 feet of me, in the dinosaur room, staring up at this enormous creature. It was awesome in the most literal sense.

sometimes u have to see something in real life to truly get it. Elephant in pictures is like 'thats an elephant'

elephant in real life is like 'wow, that's a fucking elephant

why cant it be socially acceptable to just start fucking screaming

Art trade with @hannyatiger !

This one took me 6 hours and 22 minutes, the second longest time of all the art trades I've done this year. I don't really know why it took that long. I guess I was just really slow at it.

It was an interesting challenge because I rarely work with really brightly coloured characters, so I had a bit of an experience trying to find a way to make it look a little less intense on the eyes.

This is SO COOL!!!!

Above image is a pride flag with every color band represented by a NASA image. White is Earth clouds, pink is aurora, blue is the Sun in a specific wavelength, brown is Jupiter clouds, black is the Hubble deep field, red is the top of sprites, orange is a Mars crater, yellow is the surface of Io, green is a lake with algae, blue is Neptune, and purple is the Crab Nebula in a specific wavelength.

Woo new Cosi ref!! Finally!

You Tumblians haven't seen Cat Cosi yet, I don't think, but they were a cat for a long time, and then they changed into a dragon just recently. But I didn't have a ref yet, so I made this. And I like it a lot. The fullbody looks good, and I'm proud of the background. I didn't want to highlight the notes with regular squares, because that's boring, so I added some little flourishes to all of them. It helps with the vibes. I wanted it to have the same feeling as a pine forest? Or at least, the taiga in Minecraft. And the swatches are alive!! They're a blue-tongued lizard, Cape Barren goose, kangaroo, koala, and quoll. And a leaf.

I've been working on this on and off for the last four days, so a lot of the original thoughts I had have died by now. I wanted to change the markings and colours more, but everything I tried looked bad, and I didn't really have any problems with the original anyway, so I just kept it.

Reblogs appreciated :D I worked really hard on this lol

Apparently, this blog is 3 years old now?? I could've sworn I made it much later in the year but ok
