False Valentine Design
The false valentine is one fascinating organism. It spent most of their time buried underground. Upside down with tail barely exposed on the ground exuding sweet vanilla-like scent to draw in stingless bees.
The bees then slowly make their new home on the tail. Exchanging their honey and resin for the false valentine sustenance in exchange for paralyzing substances that it excretes. Enhancing the bees only defense mechanism, their bites. The mandibles coated with the chemical are capable of delivering fatal seizures to lurking dangers.
In very rare occasion a false valentine pair would go to settlements where stingless beekeeper resides in. Disguised as a human with beekeeper outfit by stacking on top of another. They do so to steal the bee colony, all the while leaving convulsed people and animals on their path. Locals believed that the false valentines are enacting divine punishment to humans that are mistreating and (excessively) exploiting the bees.
It's unclear whether the medieval beekeeper outfits are inspired by them or if it's a mimicry in response to the outfit.
*Meant for a long overdue Valentine's day creature design challenge. Trying to implement that not only a patron saint of love but Valentine is also the patron saint of seizure, but because this is false it would be inflicting it rather than relieving seizures

Ida’s old creature concept from 2020, before i decided to make her a werewolf.
Her design was inspired by the common gliding lizards (Draco sumatranus) and colugos. I’m still very proud of this design and have been debating on bringing it back :]

An idea came to me in a fever dream, and i need to materialize it in the corporeal world
Pokémon x Houseki no Kuni - Game Box Art!
Switch box art looks nothing like this, i just miss the 3ds box art
The lunarian is inspired by garuda, colugo, and rabbit. The admirabilis is jellyfish, abalone, and sea slug. Last the gem, ungulate, Calocalanus pavo (copepod), and umbrella tree.
