Another fun thing I do with customers - specifically parents of very small children who don’t know they’re alive yet - is directly imply I think the coffee is for the baby, not the parent. and lemme tell you, like 70% of parents eat that shit up. They immediately go along with the bit and start discussing it with their newborn child, while the baby just stares at us like 😮

reply from tumblruser zombeikid ‘I love doing this with beer. Guy comes up with a 12 pack and his infant and I'm always like I don't think the kid's old enough, I need some ID. They always think its great. Sometimes the dads will scold me saying that the baby is their best drinking partner and some of them scold the babies for being alcoholics as infants’ALT

Silly bird gets a fish.

Pursuant to my last post about using photoscan terrain instead of homemaking all my background assets; this Qurupeco scene I did right after took half the time for a substantially better looking result; I was able to just focus my time on sculpting and painting the actual monster and I'm reasonably happy with this one.

The original in-game model is extremely ambiguous on which purple parts are scales and which are feathers, a thing literally no piece of official art can agree on either. More scales was easier, so I did that.

A Duramboros and her durambabies enjoy a day in the flooded forest. Herbivorous therapods are fun; we should get more of those in monster fiction.


This piece was basically square in the middle of my ongoing Monster Hunter art kick and I've got pretty mixed feelings on it a year on - the babies look great; the adult coulda used a second pass on the hair and grass elements, and the environment is just deeply lazy - I would have bitten the bullet and used some photoscanned assets today instead of hastily trying to make everything myself in a week.
