Mih 🥊Split Decision

A digital painting for a book cover. It shows a large, dark, stormy cloud approaching a two-level dystopian sci-fi settlement in a bleak setting.

My cover artwork spread for "The Last 0-Day", a debut sf novel by author B.R. Russell. My debut cover, too.

Note: I didn't design covers for the rest of the trilogy ahem ai ahem. Maybe for some future edition.

Did you know. That the meme-explosion that was the wooden model of Sacabambaspis (an Ordovician jawless fish) held at a Museum in Helsinki, was created by a pioneering Estonian fish paleontologist and palaeoartist, Elga Mark-Kurik. 🧵

This art by John Berkey is fantastic. That's a sci-fi TTRPG campaign setting right there.

a very busy digital drawing of a row of tamagotchi-style toys in colorful packaging. they each feature a different creature as well as an inventory of themed items. there's a cute one-eyed alien, a kitty cat, a dragon, and a ghosty skull guy. the package design is cluttered by a mix of 3D items & digital UI elements that resemble virtual pet websites like neopets.

pocket pets ✨ collect them all!

This is unrealistic.

The other day I saw a video of a man touch the world’s largest spider colony, several times.

Whoa look at him go

A blank-faced dog looks at the viewer. Text reads, "I am the".

The dog, now grinning, raises its arms. A few stars have appeared. Text reads, "beautiful dog".

Can you believe it?

and an amelie to go with today's higgs drawing

Axe of Rage -Aka- Barbarian II: The Dungeon of Drax (1988)

Digital painting of a merman and his serpent dragon companion. The merman is covered in head to toe royal blue armor, with only his face exposed, and he is wielding an oddly shaped spear. He is in a defensive pose, almost bracing for attack, and he is standing on top of the scaly body of the serpent. The serpent extends to the backdrop; it is massive in scale and its serpentine body is coiling, almost like it's getting ready to attack. Its face is draconic, with several fins protruding out of its skull and whiskers coming out of its snout.

Digital painting of a merman and his fish monster companion. The merman is mostly humanoid but with spiky armor made with iridescent fish bones. It covers his entire body except his face, and he is wielding a giant blade with a skull on its hilt. In the backdrop is a giant, sentient fish skeleton with a long serpentine spine that extends to the forground.

I loved this Maxfield Parrish imagery in @realgdt.bsky.social’s Frankenstein (which I also loved)

Manticores can mimic speech well to lure prey. Nues are worse mimics, more like budgies. Sphinxes can speak intelligently. In mammals, the capacity for intelligent, human-like speech has evolved 6 different times—in elf, orc, sphinx, giant, human, and minotaur relatives—across 11 species.

The fishermen on the great lake have no need to waste their time angling. They instead employ their trusty avian familiars to snatch prey straight out of the water.

The birds are kept well fed for their hard work.
