All of them

Some quick lizard concepts

Cave lizard - a horned lizard around the size of a black lizard. Acts similarly to dropwigs. They have green-ish bright patterns, that they can make fade in and out. Those patterns emit enough light to scare off small spiders. Cave lizard has a big pouch at the end of its tail - it stores webs inside of it, which is used to hang from celing. It can move on walls and celings, but not backgrounds

Nurse lizard - a big feathered lizard with an armored tail. It has spikes on its tail -- which will damage whoever touches them. Nurse lizard raises its tail as a threat. It has a habit of trying to protect smaller lizard variants (usually Strawbery lizrds) and it will consider them as a pack member. Most likely Nurse lizard simply mixes up smaller lizards with its young. It has a very strong tounge, which it uses to fling itself to its prey

[inspired by @slugfishh's lizard anatomy from this post]

Finally got around to finishing this houugh... it was a lot of work but I really like the end result!! Naturally, I'll try my best to list some of the thoughts I have in mind for these guys below. Long post ahead!

These lizards are intended to be ALMOST fully arthropod-like but due to my lack of understanding of bug anatomy and creative liberties, they are in that gray spec bio area so don't take any inconsistencies too seriously (or rather, fuck logic, and accept them how I describe them regardless)

Inspirations: - my lesser detailed lizard design - my friend's slugcats - wasps for the head contours, various insects for the exoskeleton guidelines, caterpillars, various stylistic slugcats across the #rainworld tag - the burning need for something more detailed and cool in my drawing vocabulary

The actual meat of the post; extra facts: - Lizards are related to slugcats (in my au, if you wanna call it that?) or at least the very early version of them. This idea is borrowed from this post and in my au, lizards evolve a similar tail to a slugcat's to aid in propelling themselves through tight spaces, acting as a 5th limb. - Similar to my old vulture post, lizards share a similar lifecycle. The majority of the larval stage is spent underground and in tight spots, far from their main predator. Lizard larva will undergo pupation similar to how beetles do, leaving behind broken cavities in pipes where carnivorous plants favor to take root. Additionally to the vulture's terrible parental drive, they often mistake their own larva for lizard hatchlings. - A lizard's skin is leathery and retains moisture for quite a while. Some lizards have a thicker layered mantle than others, allowing them to take punctures to the abdomen and still recover. - Not pictured, but will be described, are a few outliers to the standard lizard body plan. Caramels have muscular hind legs akin to a grasshopper but this means their legs cannot slot together and thus they have a wider leg splay than other species. Eels and salamanders are not lizards but lizard mimics. Yellow lizards' antennae attach to a hump on the snout rather than the rear of the head as seen here. Cyan lizards' mantles are more square shaped due to their leap drums on either side of their bodies and have a 3rd mantle that runs the length of their tail and caps the tailtip. - Cyan lizard's organs are called leap drums and act similarly to our lungs. They are a ring of muscle which contracts and acts as a spring loaded mechanism to propel the creature via combustion through a mysterious chemical process. Because the color of debris left behind during a leap share the same color as the lizard, perhaps they are discarded scales, formerly in place to protect the cavities housing the explosion. - They have similar organs to vertebrates within their abdomen, probably surrounded by cartilage. (not that important, I haven't thought that much about this) - (More may be added later as I remember)

I dont thiiiink I posted Snapjaw here before?

Theyre a red lizard oc I came up with like.. a year ago. I should make a proper ref for them.

Weird things happening in my backyard.

would love to do rw art month but doing art month challenges is actually impossible for me . anyways heres day 9

Most terrifying thing I have ever witnessed in Rain World. Managed to clip it since I was streaming at the time, which is why the audio is muted, Discord's clipping captures voices

lizard lizard yayy lizard (second slugcat is an oc)

Train of thuoght aside I doodled a lizard to wake up my hand

the lizard that's completely blocking your way:

This is my gripe
