One of the main components of Great Hammerheads (Sphyrna mokarran) diet is stingrays. Sometimes they even keep a souvenir. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿฆˆ Therefore, I submit to you my illustration for #Inktober Day 11: "Sting."

What the...? From Late Cretaceous to Early Eocene (yup, freak survived the K-Pg) "stratosphere tooth" is a 5 meter aulopiform fish with an eel-like body covered in scutes and over 6000 conical teeth, 1000 of which grew outside its jaws!

Black and white drawing of Vi from Arcane. She's standing with her arms folded, one hand resting on her face. She has her eyes closed and is smiling. She's wearing a white tank top, jeans with a black leather belt and a carabiner with keys on.

Tyranids are a great army, fairly balanced, with a varied range of bioforms specialized for different roles; from swarms of little bugs, to elite broods, to towering monsters, with a mix of melee and ranged weaponry.
The fact they are so alien also means any colour scheme works on them!

โ€œWhat did you do? Thatโ€™s your question?
It was basically a moving building and in its centre there was a wormhole spilling out masses of Warriors. On top was a glowing ball that was shooting light and a Death Ray on every corner. 
I tell you what we did - we were running like hell!โ€

October moths

Even now itโ€™s not too late to cling to the last remnants of summer and go looking for moths. These are some of the species that can still be seen in Finland & elsewhere in Northern Europe, drawn after my own photos.

Just found out the pachycephalosaurid from my dinosaur project thingy's formation has been described (the species is now named Brontotholus), so I went and dug up this concept drawing I did of them four years ago (sept. 2021)

Happy to have a name I can google now!
