Solarpunk Colossus.

When the ancient ones awaken to help out humanity with their climate problem.

This was a piece I've been wanting to do for ages and @stimpunks helped me make this a reality! So thank you so much for this commission! All of my neurospicy friends should definitely check out Stimpunks and give them a follow!

I just wanted an excuse to blend Solarpunk with fantasy art really.

The idea is that an environmental research facility was unwittingly built upon the back of a sleeping earth colossus due to the unique flora and fauna of the area, only for the colossus to suddenly awaken. The behemoth made an agreement with the scientists that they may stay on its back, but only on the condition that they treat the isolated ecosystem with respect and that their research will help heal nature and bring about a world where humans and nature live in harmony again.

The research facility itself is constructed from entirely sustainable materials and is a blend of iron-age and modern architecture. The scientists must stick to strict limestone paths so not to erode any of the earthy areas. Some locations cannot be accessed by foot and are therefore drone-only. The entire facility is powered by those airborne turbines (I probably added more than there needed to be but they look pretty haha).

Here's some concept art for the colossus. I made him a lot less grumpy in the final piece. He has six legs on account of him being extremely front-heavy and he has little tiptoeing ungulate feet. I also worked a lot of fossil motifs into his design, plus I imagine the wooden structures that make his antlers are so ancient that they have started to petrify. I want this creature to feel truly ancient. His face is also inspired by "the green man" a little bit.

The scientists have nicknamed this colossus "The Wean" (Wee one) on account of him living off the coast of Scotland.

Oh and before anyone asks... yes, this was at least a little bit inspired by "Shadow of the Colossus." I'm not going to hide my influences ^^'

If you want to see more Solarpunk or fantasy art from me, please consider donating a Ko-Fi! Even a small amount really helps, especially with how difficult things are for artists right now.

The Lancetfish is a species that looks like it comes straight out of a realistic fantasy world building project.

This is a list format microfiction I posted to my patreon last year, and have now released with some slightly expanded writing and new illustrations; I won't illustrate all my list-fiction like this, but this was my attempt to conceive of "creatures" so simple and so abstract I could illustrate most of them in only seconds and it actually isn't even definite that they're "creatures" at all, really:

There are sixteen at the link, though a couple of them couldn't be illustrated at all. I tried to make their descriptions actually more puzzling than their aesthetics :)

#fiction #creepypasta #art #creature design #spec evo #or is it?#is it spec evo if it's this removed from our reality?#does it become spec evo simply because I included what may be practical survival adaptations and ecological relationships???

The Takin is such a whimsical herbivore, like God commissioned Dr. Seuss for this one.
