Beautiful 1860s Victorian butterfly, which was used to store small packets of sewing needles on the underside of the wings. This was a collaboration between a London-based drapers company and a sewing needle manufacturer. On exhibit at Tatter Blue, a Brooklyn textile museum. IG tatterbluelibrary

The underside of the butterfly, which has little pockets to store sewing needle packets. The underside of the wings are decorated with two plates. One carries an inscription of the drapers company: "Copestake, Moore, Crampton & Co. - London." The other has a gilded head of Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, art, trade, and war.

The butterfly can be folded up, like how a butterfly flaps its wings.

Feldspar was the first Hearthian to be intentionally launched into space. They completed the first orbit around Timber Hearth and later made the first of what would be many landings on our moon, the Attlerock.

guardian feldspar brought a baby jasper to the observatory to meet chert, who was ~14 at the time!! i like to think that chert’s always had a soft spot for jasper, they’re both stargazers after all <3 #stardusttshowers #outerwilds #feldspar #chert #outerwildsoc #hatchlingoc

some refs of my hatchling oc Schist. they're pretty quiet before launching, but the time loop brings out their reckless and impatient tendencies. #outerwilds

fullbody images of a hearthian in jeans, a sweater, and an orange shawl. the right image shows the outfit with no shawl.
several notes point out details:
they are covered in dirt but (try to) keep their shawl clean, they are short, they dress warm and cozy, and their face spots are to be kept consistent.
they usually look annoyed (spots on their brows intensify this), they have stitching on the side of their pants, their pockets are always full, they carry a camping utensil and a nomai keychain, and their socks are mismatched.

the same fullbodies, but one wears a tank top, headband and gloves. their sweater is tied around their waist. the right fullbody is unclothed to show their spots.
more notes: the left outfit is for physical work. they have more spots on their back and top of their arms.

here's a ref of Schist's suit- it's pretty close to the one in game because I got attached to drawing it that way #outerwilds

reference of a spacesuit consisting of a helmet, shawl, and baggy jeans. there are detail shots of both sides of the helmet and the top side of the gloves. there is another version of the suit with a sleeping bag and jetpack attached to the back, with detail shots of these extra items. added notes point out the sap wine and thread attached to the belt, and that the proportions of the outfit should be pushed- big torso and arms with smaller lankier legs

a comic about terrible timing, for yesterday #outerwilds #makeaterriblecomicday

schist, the hatchling, raises their arms triumphantly and says "yes!!! i made it to the sun station!!! now i can explore!" they are covered in cactus needles.
the next panel shows them in front of a red and angry sun, yelling "WHAT." as they get a message that reads "time until sun station is destroyed: 0 minutes"

they raise their arms again, yelling "yes!!! i made it to the quantum moon!!! now i can explore!"
the next panel shows them yelling "FUCK." as the supernova arrives

schist, the hatchling, raises their arms triumphantly and says "yes!!! i made it to the ash twin project!!! now i can explore!" they are covered in sand.
the next panel shows them in front of nomai masks, yelling "DAMMIT." as they get a message that reads "0 minutes until end-of-cycle transmission"

they raise their arms again, yelling "yes!!! i made it to the nomai vessel!!! now i can warp!"
the next panel shows them yelling "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME." as the supernova arrives to dark bramble

been playing a bunch of archipelago randomized #outerwilds lately. fun times!

A bee in a spacesuit, with two pairs of eyes

a bee in a spacesuit sitting down sadly and saying "I miss my scout, Mario ::("
another sketch shows the bee un-helmeted and happy, holding their scout and saying "mmy scout ::)"

sketches of the bee. in the first one, they are thinking "when will my signalscope return from the war.."
in the second one, they shovel marshmallows into their mouth while saying 'o fuck yes marshmallows'
the last sketch shows them sprawled out and sleeping. text above them says "nap trapped ten million times"

the bee sits in their sleeping bag, stretching and saying "yippee im so ready to get started on this loop!"
suddenly they collapse, dead. text above them reads "DEATHLINK'D"
slate watches, confused and disturbed. text above their head reads "?!!"

the hatchling holds up an artifact, a shine emanating from it and one of their eyes in a parody of the album art for lemon demon's spirit phone. the colors are limited to a palette of light and dark blue-greens

Riebeck looks up to watch several meteors cross the sky. There are a few snowflakes drifting around as well. They are lit up in warm oranges and shaded in purple

lil chert comic they deserve a laugh, at the end of everything #outerwilds

a black and white comic with red highlights. in the first panel, chert sits with their hands on their drum, saying "Sit with me, fellow traveler. Let's sit together and watch the stars die."

in the next panel, the hatchling stands off to their right and lifts a marshmallow on a stick towards the approaching supernova, saying "Hey- bet I can roast this marshmallow on the Sun and eat it before it goes 'nova!" chert looks at them in shock.

a zoomed out view of the hourglass twins orbiting the sun, in the same limited colors. the sun changes from red to yellow to a bright blue, and dialogue meanders across the page that reads "....ha." "...haha" "hahaha" "HAHAHA!!" "...phew!" "Ha ha ha ha ha", the last laugh fading into the blue supernova.

several bust drawings of esker- a hearthian with purple eyes and a cowboy hat. in one drawing lined with a thin pen, they close their eyes and whistle. in another drawing lined with a thicker brush, they look to the side and hold a green marshmallow on a stick, amused. in the last drawing, done with a soft pencil texture, they smile at the viewer.

more archipelago doodles, featuring esker (so sorry for parking my ship next to you) and my friend @othermario.bsky.social

a bee in a spacesuit says 'hmm. thats not good.' as they get a warning message reading 'ship damage trap received. time-sensitive components: reactor'. an arrow points to them that reads 'across the planet from ship'

next panel shows the ship beeping urgently, with esker casually whistling in the foreground.

last panel shows the ship exploding with a loud KABOOM and pieces flying everywhere. esker sits, shocked and wide eyed. their hat has gone flying off and is on fire.

a small star-shaped bug in a link hat says 'here- i beat my game so i dont need these anymore' and dumps several fuel canisters onto a pile. at the bottom of a pile is a bee in a spacesuit, looking dizzy. text reads 'metal pipe sfx'

a screenshot of a randomizer game client reads 'othermario sent jetpack fuel refill to dweeb' several times

the star-bug shoves several marshmallows into the bees mouth, saying 'also these. youre welcome.'

several sketches of coquina gradually growing older.
in the first sketch, they listen to feldspar tell a story. in the second one, they fish with spinel and interrupt them. in the third one, they float in zero gravity and then curl into a ball, panicking. in the fourth one, they stand next to the anglerfish tank, newly missing a finger. in the fifth one, they look up to see celestine approaching them. in the sixth one, they calmly sit with their legs in a stream.

Traditional drawing of a "hearthian," an alien from the game Outer Wilds. They have four eyes, which are orange with black pupils. Their skin is cornflower blue with gray jaguar-like spots and rosettes. They wear a piecemeal outfit in various shades of brown and orange. They smile at the viewer excitedly. Text with arrows surrounds them, pointing to various features. The text reads "thick clock," "tape and pads for support," "angler teeth buttons," "parachute shorts," and "extra cushy shoes."

A collection of traditional drawings, most of which are sketches. There are four headshots of a "hearthian" character, which is a type of alien from the game Outer Wilds. The headshots show off their spots at different angles, as well as their open mouth. A colored version of the pattern on their head is in the bottom middle, along with colored details of their eyes and mouth. Text and arrows point to various details, reading "tongue attached to front of mouth and flips out backward like a frog," "head pattern but flat," "eyes, pupils, teeth," and "jaguar rosettes but diamond, letter s, and triangle shapes as well, supposed to mirror nomai suit eyes."

nothing where there was once something nastasia realizes the weight of what comes with working to fulfill the dark prophecy alongside the count; as the void’s tempest rages on to destroy the universe & the humanity she grew to love. #stardusttshowers #superpapermario #nastasia #nastasiaspm

A stylized Nastasia from Super Paper Mario sits upon a what appears to be grass & a lake; and a full moon & stars behind her. She appears sad, and dejected. The background is a translucent mirage, as it is truly the void in swirling colors of black and purple.

When all else fails, draw oc over stupid cat memes #artnerd1123 #paradice #diceydungeonsoc

Various traditional grayscale sketches of Beast, a monster oc, doing stupid things. In the first sketch she is holding her tail in her mouth like a snow leopard. In the second, she’s wearing a slice of bread around her head, back arched and claws out, with text reading “THEY SHOULD INVENT A PLACE WHERE I BELONG” under her. In the third, she stands stiffly on all fours and sticks her tongue out, tail held high in the air. Text beside her reads “can I come over and look at u liek dis.” In the fourth, she lies on her back and looks up at a man with an eyepatch- Thief- who’s speaking indistinctly to her. An arrow pointing to beast has text that reads “her ass is NOT listening.” Beast then reaches up and slaps her paws on Thief’s cheeks, sticking her tongue out at his confusion. In the fifth sketch, Beast is happily biting a different man with fluffy dark hair and scars- Warrior. He seems pleased with this. Under them is the caption “affection 🖤.” The last two sketches are hasty scribbles of Beast arching her back like a startled Halloween cat, and a closeup of her face blepping with stars around it.

Traditional drawing of a Star Wars droid oc. It is spherical, with three “eyes” and criss crossed with a black border. It is silver with a green geometric design painted on it.

An edit of the scene from Lilo and Stitch where lilo is praying in her bedroom while Nani watches on from the doorway.
Instead of Lilo, it’s a back view of Cor- a kneeling redheaded man in a purple hoodie, gray leggings, and rainbow socks. Instead of Nani, it’s Dix- a ginger man with a goatee, wearing a dark green plaid shirt. Dix looks to Cor in sadness and concern as Cor says “I need someone to be my friend… Maybe send me an angel. The nicest angel you have.”
In next panel, Stitch has been replaced by Varrh- a cackling man with black, green, and blue hair in a loose fitting black outfit. His eyes glow red as he stands triumphantly on a pile of rubble.

Traditional drawing of a stylized Count Bleck from Super Paper Mario. There’s a black and purple void in the background.
On the left side of the drawing, he is lined shakily and colored faintly. He looks down at a book- the prognostics- forlornly, his staff clutched loosely in his free hand. Words from the prognostics scrawl across the background.
On the right side of the drawing, he is in full vibrant color, posed dramatically and swishing his starry cape out. He points his staff triumphantly and holds the prognostics out to the side. He cries “Bleh heh heh, BLECK!” With a sinister sneer.
