Apocalocust

This isn't a weekly Arthropoid (we're moving this month, so time is flying by hectically) but an unused drawing from years ago. I just didn't quite like how it turned out enough to use this design. T...

REALLY early sketches! Maybe I should've kept Phleboto's plunger/handle thing

Mortasheen - Ko-Ax

A little late, and can be considered the second new species for April. Ko-Ax is a larger relative of Brekekekex, the name has the same origin, and it borrows slightly more of its design from the flyi...

Mortasheen - Brekekekex

Forgot to put this on Patreon as well as tumblr! Brekekekex is a living alien "mecha" borrowing aspects of a War of the World's martian (from the 60's film adaptation), a giant frog head, a pop-eyed g...

Bonus Arthropoid: Stalk-eyed Fly

Stalk-eyed flies (Diopsidae) are tropical insects that feed mostly on fallen fruits. Females select males according to the length of their eye stalks, and males will "joust" for attention by comparing...

Bonus Arthropoid: Dust Mite

A little bunny-like. A dust bunny!

E.M. BALMER'S BLOG

I said earlier that Balmer's blog might contain spoilers, but instead I've just cut them out and will update it with further stuff as we go along in the corpse world. Unlike other character journals ...

Dr. Phage's Files: Oozing Skull

Expanded monster lore: Chainsaw Kid

Expanded write-ups are still in an experimental stage. Is this a good set of "categories?" Is the categorized information even a good idea? "Tactical mechanisms" is just a final run-down of notable a...

Awful Hospital monster doodles (spoiler?)

There's a concept I had early on in designing Awful Hospital that I didn't end up using, but I still might, so you can consider this spoilerish. I thought it would be interesting to have a "broken" h...

Mortasheen Sketch Page

These are almost two years old, and you can see what became "Streptile" on the right. I'm not sure what I was going for with the weird thing that looks part Guilala, part Kanegon, but I still like it ...

Early Staph doodle

Dr. Staph was planned for a long time, and the first color drawing of her was this quick, freehand doodle to see if I really liked drawing with the pixel pen. She's changed only slightly!

Stuff soon!

April's phage files and character journal are minor Awful Hospital spoilers, sort of, so they're going to be held off until a bit towards the end of the month, but now we've reached the point where I ...

Engulper

A monster based on Aditya's suggestions turned out fairly easy to get done a little faster than usual, anything I can draw like a salamander seems to go smoothly. 2015-04-11 07:50:21 +0000 UTC View Post

More sketches of those alien things. These might maybe be final designs

PROBLEM SOLVED

Taking opinions into consideration, two of the velvet worms have been merged into one concept with an adorable velvet worm head on an unexpectedly terrifying body. The remaining two designs have been...

Velvet Worms

Help I have four possible designs for a Velvet Worm monster and I like them all equally Top left: I thought a creepy tapir/elephant-like vibe would be cool, and a bit of a nod to the fact that these ...

Mortasheen - Tyrannitoma

The colors kind of turned out a little too messy. Also will I ever stop coloring things in shades of mauve? http...

Bonus Arthropoid - Argulus

Argulus are "fish lice," actually bloodsucking crustaceans with a pair of huge ventral suckers!

Bonus Arthropoid - Proturan

Speed sketch of a Proturan Arthropoid. The Protura are an obscure, enigmatic and very tiny arthropod group, once categorized as insects, but now considered unique! I'll do one of these every week if ...

SECRET Mortasheen sketches!

I dunno what happened, but suddenly everything I doodled started looking exactly the way I wanted it to turn out. I was IN THE ZONE I guess. Anyone want one of these for this month's monster, or the ...

Mortasheen - Gindrake

Everboundvenvel suggested a few ideas and I wanted to draw a ginger plant monster the most. I'll write a proper page for it soon but I figure the flowers use a dangerous scream to protect their littl...

Mortasheen sketches - invaders!

I've had an idea for a while to have a completely harmless "unknown" class monster - cute, mouse-sized little alien guys - but a series of bioconstruct monsters they designed to give themselves a figh...

An old thing I've never shared - I was almost commissioned to illustrate some organisms for a scientific book, but, I couldn't quite make them "photoreal" enough to match the art they already had. Al...

Mortasheen - Abathrael

An "angelic" monster as requested by Johann!

I've had sketches of this horrible koala-like monster for years. I like it, but I don't know what to do with it exactly. I don't necessarily want to tie it in with actual Koalas, and keep thinking of...

an older doodle of what became Neuroculus; it would have flew through the air at one time but now I kinda like it as a walking creature.

Flysore sketches!
