Holy mackerel guys I have 800 followers now… How bout an art share to celebrate? -interact/repost other artists who post🎨 -use alt text lest ye be unreposted 📖 -NO A/I, clankers be damned 🤖 -please keep things SFW (relatively speaking)! #art #artshare #paint #painting #artists

a painting of messmer the impaler from elden ring's shadow of the erdtree DLC. Flames surround him as his serpent curls over his back. A great cavernous maw replaces where his right eye used to be, and his left eye is closed, presumably also missing. In the right eye socket, flames pour out, and deep in the cavity there is a small serpentine shape, eating away at something in a coiled ball. His skin on his face is mostly falling away from what looks like burns. The darkest colors of his scars seem to meld with his bright red hair.

A painting of a knight on horseback during a storm. His horse looks to the sky in terror as a dragon flies overhead, casting its enormous shadow onto them. The knight, unbothered by the dragon’s presence, looks before him towards a young man wielding a sword, standing at the ready. The knight is surrounded by barking snarling dogs that he commands, and they begin to approach the young man with the sword, ready to launch their attack. The fight seems unevenly matched. The painting is dark, tense, and dramatic.

a digital painting of a hand reaching out in front of a green curtain. The arm wears a green, plaid suit jacket. It holds a plate outstretched in its hand and in the plate sits a human brain with the spinal cord dangling off the plate to one side. Blood pools in the plate and drips down the hand and arm. The brain is surrounded by surreal. concussive bright light and swirling glowing lines and stars.

A religious magister/priest is on his knees looking skyward. He is bathed in intense red light, his eyes are glowing red, he has a red halo surrounded by eyes behind him, and blood pours down his face. His hands are clasped in prayer but his hands are spiked together with a nail. He holds a necklace in the shape of a crossed out eye as he prays. Chains are clasped around his entire body, some around his neck and many around his waist.

I designed 3 dragons today just to see how the template works and so far so good. I have to make a couple of minor tweaks depending on which version of the template I use, but otherwise I'm really liking this. #art #bskyart #characterdesign #OC #OCDesign #dragon #dragons #comic #comicart

character design of a white, fleshy-pink, and gold dragon. It has a ridge of white downy feathers along its topline, and golden shiny scales on its legs. It has light goldish-beige colored horns and golden eyes. It has many rows of horns and protrusions on its head, neck, and tail.

A character design of a deep blue colored dragon. It has corkscrew horns along its head and somewhat on its neck and tail, and robust patches of orange and yellow flame-colored downy feathers along its topline and chest. It has lighter blue and darker blue stripes along the tip of the tail, and intense orange eyes.

A character design of a dragon. The dragon is primarily grey colored but has muted green accents and bright reddish-orange wing undersides and stripes with orange and green sails that extend across the entire body. It has black horns on its head, neck, and tail, and has orange eyes.

working on another species for my comic and i really think my philosophy with animals for this comic has been "throw a saddle on it" and that's so funny to me lol #art #bskyart #deer #cervid #characterdesign #reindeer #fallowdeer

a drawing of a deer. It has large antlers like a reindeer but with more texture and shape similar to a fallow deer. It has a cream colored coat and some lighter softer accents on the bottom half of the body. It has fawn spots along the body and blue eyes. It is wearing a black fur pelt on its back as well as a saddle and bridle with blue tassels.

A digital painting of a medieval soldier in vibrant neon colors of purples, pinks, violets, blues, and greens. The soldier wears a gambeson and wields a halberd. The soldier has a houndskull bascinet. The background swirls with the same colors as the soldier is painted with. Smoke or fog billows around them.

The marine is done finally holy crap. I need to design all the other ones but for now this guy is done. #art #bskyart #warhammer40k #40k #warhammer #spacemarine #blood #gore #horror #paint #painting #chromatic #purple #red #fanart

A warhammer 40,000 space marine with purple and red chromatic armor that has oxidized and rusted in areas and is trimmed in vibrant gold. The space marine's armor is covered in alchemical symbols of amalgamation, sulfur, verdigris, rot, and gold. There are prayer seals all over the armor. Blood drips from their armor and the hammer they are holding in their right hand. In their left hand, they hold a chain that is leashed to a creature that looks like a mix of animal, human, and tyranid, with a distended skull that looks like it could have once belonged to a person. The creature is also covered in blood. It appears to be obedient to the space marine.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have discovered a new antibiotic, known as manikomycin, that may be a bulwark in the fight against drug-resistant superbugs. By attacking the ribosome in a never-before-seen way, manikomycin can evade the existing mechanisms pathogens have developed to resist antibiotics.

Every season of Reacher so far has been great, and I understand that they may be avoiding the earlier novels due to their slightly less standalone nature, but every year I'm sad to learn that next season won't be the book where he kills his way through a white supremacist militia camp.

I’ve always loved the phrase, “living well is the best revenge.” Despite how it sounds, it isn't about spite; it’s about breaking free from a toxic cycle. It means taking all the energy you would have spent fighting back, and using it to build a life of peace and joy instead.

May I remind everyone that there is currently NO cure for rabies. May I also remind everyone there is absolutely NO scientific proof connecting ANY vaccine that we produce today with autism. This is true regarding vaccination in both humans AND in dogs. Vaccinate your pets please.

Worries about vaccination rates in dogs
As rabies seems to be spreading more in wildlife, veterinarians are especially worried about vaccine hesitancy spreading among pet owners, a dangerous trend that could lead to more dogs - and their owners
- becoming infected. A 2023 study published in the journal Vaccine found in nationally representative
sample of Americans that nearly 40% believed canine vaccines were unsafe and 37% believed that vaccines could lead their dogs to develop cognitive issues, such as autism.

It is a cartoon mouse, like Jerry from Tom and Jerry, shaped like a wedge of cheese presumably because it has eaten a wedge of cheese. The mouse has Elizabeth Holmes' face. The mouse is saying "Why would I deceive you? There's no reason for me to do that."

Nathan Fielder, looking into a fridge where the mouse has eaten a cheese, says skeptically "Okay. Alright."
