I should've waited a day but it was an impulse comm to get my snake stylized as well, Paprika be something.

Sometimes you just need to get a lil stylized art of your dummies, Cinnamon and Nutmeg getting some unique looks.

After so long, I finally got a finished art of Nutmeg. Done by a friend doing a lil art challenge on expressions, she noticed inconsistencies in the crabs design across all her arts (including features I personally disliked) so she flat out drew the whole crab "for future reference" good friend.

Talking with a friend about my spices and some of their habits, and she hit me with "Most of your DDs are collectively this image" then proceeded to doodle Mint as the meme. She's not wrong, but it just was too funny to not share.

Lizzy has 0 survival instincts and I cannot be convinced otherwise, especially when a literal shark is looming over her all that matters is getting a good post for her socials.

Earlier this week artist friend randomly told me they had an idea based on something I am writing, and initially I was weary (The Jam Incident, if you know you know) but they promised me it was not anything bad, and well this was the result.
Based on a meme they saw and decided Cinnamon fits better.

Finally made a new chapter for the Spice Cabinet story, it is a more proper chapter for Mint, showing off the bitey nurse doing what she does best: pining after treats and biting her fellow disassemblers. Read it, or dont, I'm not a cop free will is a thing.

A big thank you to @PallaPbal on Twitter for this amazing commissioned piece of Paprika, showing the snake in a bit of a more menacing light than she usually gets. Highly recommend.

Once again the Snake proving that it doesn’t matter how horrifying they can be, if they got the looks (and softness) they’ll get some hooks. Don’t feed the snake she’s on a diet, she will lie and say she isn’t, do not believe her.

There are a lot of random doodles of my spices from multiple artists just sitting in my files.

The Cayenne one is from a friend with no socials
and Lavender there was doodled by my good mate Anya
Spices be silly sometimes.

Random thing, early on in my Spices existing it was clear who was the most popular. I made these due to the fact I had a literal small hoard of people who were pining for the nurse, which is funny as none of them did the single thing to get her attention: just be casual and treat her normally.

Chili! This little bear cub of a worker drone came to existence while I was up in the Wyoming mountains, and he is just a lil' guy. He will bap, roar, and blep his way through life, and generally is just kind of adorable. He is a bear cub through and through, fear him, and maybe pet.

Cayenne! Because crocodiles are cool, and we need cooler drones to throw around. She got that Bayou vibe, and accent, which makes here just a delight to try and translate for. Also fun fact she likes to carry UNNs in her mouth, like a mama croc, gentle nom for the drone eggs.

Trauma cow, Lavender was a birthday gift to a real piece of work who didn't want a personal butler, but a pet cow. Well one illegal set of modifications later they had a cow, and poor Lavender got a good few years of trauma being an overglorified pet to some rich brat, before the saving grace of the core collapse freed him. Yes, him. Lavender is a male, and he needs a hug, but he's also going to punch you if you try to hug him.

Another spice, in theme with the previous heavily traumatized, meet Lavender! They are a skittish worker, in the sense they are going to freak out, kick you, and run away. Oh and unfortunately they had the misfortune of being a spoiled brats gift, poor lav. Do not pet the cow.

Here's @unusualequinox.bsky.social 's commission featuring @tracker-ziegler.bsky.social 's onion and Finches T cuddling like a cute gay couple :>

Another spice! Juniper, former butler/museum curator turned Jekyll and Hyde case. He's got a WWI Austrian officer in his head now, and they do not get along, but they are a stylish pair and sort of surviving. I am a history nerd sue me.

Paprika is based on a Boa Constrictor, to anyone surprised you should’ve seen this coming a mile away. If you did see this coming, neat because the snake is a glutton.

Fun fact: There are 13 spices, 12 listed here in heights, 12 in artistic form, and I love them all. Also fun fact I don't have a single art piece of any 2 spices together, individuals yeah but none of these nerds appear in the same piece. Also the unlisted spice:
Chili is 2'1"

Who here likes futas.
If so, go appreciate @tracker-ziegler.bsky.social 's oc nurse drone mint in futa mode I drew 🏥
And also happy birthday tracker 🎂

Paprika, the Boa Constrictor of a Disassembly Drone. A spice that people either want to stab, cuddle, or feed, and those aren't always exclusive plans. Animal based designs are neat, we need more unique drone designs, make some real abominations!

Onion! Octopus drone hits different after all the attention he's gotten, a spice who got the all-star treatment courtesy of @worstcompany.bsky.social and the fic he wrote.
archiveofourown.org/works/54042334 highly recommend checking it out still, smut as it may be. porn with plot.

Posted a new chapter on a story I neglected for a few months, writers block be damned my brain knows how to keep me up all night writing. Gotta put my nonsense somewhere.

Rosemary, inspired by fiction and bringing to life, in her own way. Tusken Raider style life makes for a tough drone, even if she has a soft spot or two, she will still try to steal your coffee maker. It's in the title: raider.

Sharks are cool, Thresher Sharks especially, so I went and made Cinnamon. He was the first real deviation I made for my Spices to be unique, still fits the role. He's bitey, stay away from ice sheets, or puddles, or cups of water.
#murderdronesoc

Nutmeg. Hermit crab, decapod, the one who will pinch you then skitter away while chittering. I like this spice; they are unique and fit a niche in my head for workers who need to survive outside.
#murderdronesoc

Spice #3, Garlic the pyromaniac, and the last one to see proper use for their original purpose: MD DnD, but even when it fell through I kept making spices, and now it's everyone else's problem!
#murderdronesoc

Mint was my second, a spice with a lot of bite, but people just see her as the cute nurse. Also my most popular with how many people doodled and drew her, but I can't complain.
#murderdronesoc

Guess I am gonna be here now, start off with the first of my Spice Cabinet Sage, courtesy of my good friend Anya.
Art is neat, and I have a lot of it to share, and share I will.
