Sooooo I watched Logan last night. Have a WIP of the Daddy-Daughter Badass Squad!!!
‘HELP HIM!’
Realizing I never posted this here. The Outpost was probably my favorite episode of Season 2 and I’m really looking forward to Season 3
I finished this sketch of my OC Commander Adze! He’s a sweet grandpa, despite only being 13 XD
I won’t lie, it actually scares me a little how so many fans of this show think Omega is an annoying, whiny, helpless character. Are… we watching the same show? The one about the abused little girl and her family trying to hold itself together while every force in the galaxy seems determined to tear them apart? When you were 13, would you have been prepared to deal with the trauma of being kidnapped multiple times? Watch two of your older brothers try to murder your family on multiple occasions? See the town you grew up in, presumably with everyone still inside, razed to the ground? Have to say goodbye to one of the most trusted people in your life for an uncertain amount of time? Have your home and everything in it stolen from you? See your older brother freaking die in front of your eyes??
I don’t know about y’all, but when I was thirteen, the biggest threat I had to face was the fact that my mom kept packing me raisins in my lunch (gross), and trying to impress the cool rebel girl in my class who I wanted to be friends with.
Have a little compassion.
I’ve been the archer, i’ve been the prey
Tell me, could ever leave me darling?
But who could stay?
Can we talk about omega’s characterisation in the latest episode and how she’s reacting to change around her because omg.
it reminded me of the bracca arc in season 1 where she warned hunter about the chip surgery, saying ”then i’ll be left here, with no one” and it CLEARLY shows that being abandoned /left alone is her absolute worst fear (hence why she wanted to leave kamino w tbb so badly) and in the span of the same few months she witnessed crosshair leaving, echo leaving, and the marauder, her home, where she had her very first own room, stolen—and it made me realise, that in her eyes, her worst fear is slowly coming true. Bit by bit, she’s scared the batch will eventually leave her. I’ve seen people call her ”whiny” or even ”annoying” this episode, but that’s not nearly the case.
She’s not whiny. She’s terrified.
OH MY GOSH I LOVE THIS !!!!!
Did you guys ever end up writing anything? Or just talking about it? Did you come up with any specific scenarios for the Service Batch?? How does Omega fit into it all??
MORE DISCORD SHENANIGANS!!! My friends and I had a lil bit of a freakout about the idea of Crosshair and an OC in a modern au getting brought together by Crosshair’s three dogs: Wrecker, Tech and Hunter! It was such a cute idea that I had to make some art.
(We decided that Hunter was a German Shepherd, but I love dobies and I couldn’t help myself. Maybe I’ll make a shepherd Hunter later)
AAAAAAAAAA
OH MY GOSH ITS SO TINY
It looks like a gumdrop. I wanna smoosh it so bad but it wouldn’t recover so I won’t.
Here’s the paper that describes this species holotype!! Mycena subcyanocephala from Latin, literally “little blue-head” (don’t quote me on that, it’s been a few years since I reviewed my Latin). It’s a new species, so we don’t know much about it yet. BUT they belong to the Mycena genus, which is potentially one of the coolest fungi clades around!! It’s one of the most prolific genera of fungi, and is native to nearly every continent! They’re also some of the smallest mushrooms in the world. They tend to be no bigger than a few centimeters in cap diameter, so many species have cute common names like “pixie’s parasol”!
And if you thought being a common sort of mushroom made them boring, you’d be sorely mistaken because they’re one of the genera that contains bioluminescent species!!! Of the 500 known species, around 58 glow with this absolutely ethereal, chemically-generated glow called foxfire. They do this by introducing oxygen to luciferin, a protein that produces light when this reaction occurs using the enzyme luciferase as a reaction site. Absolutely magical!! I wonder if our littol gumdrop friend is one of the 58!!
I don’t wanna bore y’all with a lecture on bioluminescence, even though it’s one of THE COOLEST things in nature (and that’s saying a lot), so have some pictures of foxfire instead <3333
(pssssssstt thanks for sharing your shroom pics with me @blithe-imperial-underling and @imperial-strategist )
You can learn more about Mycena here (sorry it’s just Wikipedia, it was kinda hard to find an overview article quickly) and you can learn more about bioluminescence in fungi here!
You are correct, @theartgremlin. I am always watching, and I found your biology lesson very interesting. My aide has a particular interest in mycology, and she was intrigued when I forwarded the information I intercepted about the microscopic predators from your planet. She shared an interesting bit of fungi with me as a result. This is one she thought I would appreciate due to its coloring resembling those of my old GAR legion.
But I should have known by the look on her face that Lieutenant Blithe had more to show me than just that one holopic. The next image she showed me was even better. Just like your microscopic worms, it was the size of this organism that was the most interesting.
The orginal post containing these extraordinary images can be found here.
GO BED YOU MADMAN!!!!!!!!!
Commission? No. Sleeb? No.
Guess what I found today
THE GOOD BRUSHHHHHHH
I have been looking for the right brush to do the lineart for this piece for months!! I’m so excited to finally get to work on the lines and colors for this!!!
Poor, frightened little bean :(

My latest piece of Bad Batch fanart, a digital portrait of Hunter.
A place for me to share my art as I learn how to draw digitally! (Apparently it’s important to share your age on this website now. I’m uncomfortable about posting my exact age online, but I am mid-twenties to early thirties. Don’t come at me, my joints ache)
