i made these while i was bored and up late. there was some unfortunate implications in the bonnie image by using the original text so i had to delete the original to minimise any harm it could do. i am very sorry if you see the original around. please know it doesn't represent my views.

Another little batch of scifi au doodles

Featuring a couple redesigns! The species itself got a redesign but also I changed Scar’s species

If you’re confused about why Scar’s all red here’s a little worldbuilding dump for you:

This species (Sunseekers) is kind of like a reverse carnivorous plant. Carnivorous plants started as phototrophs and evolved to be carnivorous later. Sunseekers were carnivorous first, then evolved phototropism to supplement their energy intake.

However, camouflage was very important for their hunting methods (originally they were pretty much pure white with occasional light grey markings, it’s only since their lifestyle changed due to technological advancement that their skin/scale colors diversified), so being covered in bright red chloroplasts is not ideal. So - and take this with a grain of salt because I haven’t figured out the exact mechanism yet - their chloroplasts are underneath the pigment layer, which makes them invisible. The pigments move out of the way to reveal the chloroplasts when photosynthesizing, hence why the skin appears red! This is called “blooming” - at least for now. I may find a better word to describe it, but I do like the term “bloom” currently.

I made an animation of this process a while back, if you want to see it in motion:

I made it 6 months ago though so it’s pretty out of date lol. Here are the corrections I’d make now:

The wing and scale designs are completely outdated.

The red bloom should go all the way to the edge of the scales, but probably wouldn’t cover the entire wing at once.

It would happen MUCH slower than this. A single scale wouldn’t fully bloom this fast, let alone the whole wing.

I do like how it’s stylized though! The spots are more realistic than the sorta scratchy texture in the drawing I did of Scar (tbh I was just being lazy when I rendered it because I completely forgot to add the blooming until the end).

In modern times blooming isn’t as common of a behavior because food is easier to come by, and migration is very rare (other similar lifestyles where energy expenditure is consistently rather high do exist, but aren’t as common anyway). So, it’s just not as useful to be doing it all the time. Modern Sunseekers pretty much only bloom as a response to high exposure to sunlight, or when dealing with persistent physical and/or mental stress.

So basically when the body is like: put this bitch back in survival mode we need the ENERGY NOW

Team pink parrot TIES

Where etho will not change his skin so the rest force him to wear a hat that gives him a pink headband

[ID: a digital sketch of Etho, Tango, Impulse, and Skizz. Tango, impulse, and skizz are sketched with pink outlines in various types of suits with pink ties. Etho is sketched with a dark outline in his normal skin, but has a pink tie tied around his head. End ID]

[crystaleevee4]

If there’s a tier to request a certain drum song/attempt on impulse or Skizz’s streams I wish someone just once would donate like three times that amount and link them to The Black Page drum solo just so I could watch the clip of them going through the stages of grief into disbelief and then maybe even try to sound it out at like a quarter speed
