Gooseg1rl - Goose Girl

Hello my friends, I painted a thing, I made this Tumblr to join my future wife in her Passion's and share things I think she'll find cool, and to share my miniature painting

This is a gift for my workmate Paul, he's retiring. He keeps telling me that life will come up on him when he does.. so heres an Iron Warriors terminator, hundreds of years old, about to be cut up by the genestealer of life for the final time, a fitting metaphor of working yourself to death for no clear reward.

"Being underestimated is one of my greatest weapons"

- Perturabo, Primarch of the Iron Warriors

When the chips are down, the Iron Warriors fight through with sheer numbers, grit and determination. Whose to say the genestealer of life will win? I don't want to let it win, so I will continue to fight

"Well I don't see how it could really be abused at a-"

Aaah I see, fair enough.

... 👉👈🪿 Boop me

as promised, the owlfly (family Ascalaphidae) I found in Singapore!

if you’re familiar with antlions, these work similarly, except instead of building a pit they rely on camouflage to hide from predators and ambush prey. a beautiful combination of lichen-y fringes and wickedly sharp mandibles.

it blended in perfectly with the mossy rope railing, even tucking back its mandibles at a 270° angle so that they lay hidden beneath the head.

it was one of several successful “oh-wait-was-that-a-bug-let’s-go-back-and-check” moments I had, and was glad I doubled back to see it for what it was! my first owlfly, now I’ve got to find an adult, which are dragonfly-like aerial predators

Instead, better myself, improve myself, let them see who they could have had, had they put the effort in

I love these mice so much

Gosh my baby is a very talented little artisté!

I've started to get back into art now that i'm not having to activly battle my neurodivergencies and I'm having a lot of fun!

This is probably the first properly drawn thing I've done in around 10 years, i've sporadically sketched here and there but never actualy put pen to tablet until now.

Once I'm back in practice and drawing smut i'm gonna open comissions as I've always wanted to.
