Scugshroom Colony - Blog Posts

I made this one very long time ago, so maybe it’s time

I really love blue or purple mushrooms, especially Cortinarius Violaceus / Violent Webcup

Web is pretty unsocialised and naughty slugpup. Before joining the colony she lives with her parents in the different region. But one day, after gon for searching food, they just disappeared forever. This led to the fact that Web had to grow up very early and learn how to survive on her own. So even after being taken into the colony, she retained her independence nature. She gets very annoyed when other scugs treat her like a small defenceless baby.

Despite the fact that her parents most likely was killed, Web is still sure that they deliberately abandoned her. Therefore, it is difficult for her to start trusting others again and become friends with other scugs in colony. But at the same time Web understands, that survive alone will be very difficult for her, so she decided to stay in the colony, helping others in any way she can.

Even as a slugpup Web doing good defending herself. She’s not poisonous, but she has a thick cap on a head, working like a big helmet, so for her it’s a decent protection. Web also thinks that her spears throw ability is near to the highest level (but in fact she greatly overestimates herself), and that’s why she often sneaks out of the camp for hunting (but almost always gets caught by guards and comes back very upset)

Sorry, I had to do this 🤣🤣🤣

I adore the blue-green stropharia ( @thunder-opossum ) design so much, and i love the idea of her sticky coat. So i think there will be quite possibly if some tiny scugs like magicylia ( @fauwa ) could accidentally stick to her

Oooooohhhh, they are so cute)))

I think you've done very well with body shapes!

Drew @originalwinnerfanfish's scugshroom Saffron and @thunder-opossum's scugshroom Old Man of the Woods (Sorry if botched, I'm getting used to drawing different types of slugcat bodies n stuff)

I love them. Dudes have no regrets

I also like to draw other scugs from this trend like Turkey Tail ( @mushroominaforest ), Russula ( @satas-momento ) and Werewere Kōkako ( @alexkittyandra ), they are so cute)

It’s feels like Turkey often sees these two in the medicine den

Aahahhaahahhahahah

True, true 🤣🤣🤣

scugshroom colony art hehe

I accidentally made the lineart that colour but I really liked it so hooray

Turkey Tail (the concerned one) belongs to @mushroominaforest

Chicken Of The Woods (the one speaking) belongs to me

Saffron belongs to @originalwinnerfanfish

Guys have no instinct for self-preservation

I really like @alexkittyandra characters, but Chicken is definitely my favourite)

I believe that Chicken of the woods and Saffron could be good friends, sharing a common love of cooking and finding new ingredients. I also have a hadcanon, that, being a favorite delicacy of lizards, they really like to consume their eggs

OOOOOOOOOOO

THIS IS AMAZING

Everyone is so cute)))

Love)

Today I had to clean a bunch of red thread fungi off my dogs... More than eight hours of work later I have this. ✨ inspiration ✨

Slugcats put in this drawing were A: under the "scugshroom colony" tag, B: had fully colored refs

I tried to keep it accurate to sizing and character personality, so I hope this can bring the colony to life a bit more :3

Okay, I'm joining your trend, guys, it's too cool)

Lactarius Deliciosus or Saffron Milkcup - my most favourite mushroom🧡

Beautiful, tasty, crunchy - this is what lizards think about when they see Saffron. No one knows exactly what kind of slugcat he is, but for some reason he attracts more predators than any other ones. Bad for him on one hand, but good for everyone else on the other. That’s why he is always ready to take the hit and lead the danger as far away from colony as possible. Even if it means he might need to be saved afterwards😅

He didn’t have any sort of special abilities or poisons like many other slugshrooms. So he can only rely on his strength and agility. And after years of training, he really became a good guard, although his work still sometimes leaves scars on his body

Saffron also loves to cook and even has his own secret recipes. With secret ingredient… Very special ingredient…

Yeah, he uses his milk sweat for cooking. It gives dishes a richer, sweet and spicy flavor and, as he believes, makes the dishes much tastier. But, for some reason, other slugcats didn't really appreciate his idea, and now he is not allowed to cook for everyone

However, Saffron continues to cook for himself and create new recipes. In a portable pot made from a snail shell, he always carries some of his signature soup, which he is ready to share with tired and lost travelers)))
