You Are A Northern Light, I Think! Vibrant Colours On A Dark Canvas! Very Cool And Space-like! 🌌🤩

🦴 Here you go guys, photos of my skeleton (Cat. Cat's skeleton, not mine, lmao) and a couple of fun facts about the process of skeleton-making and animal anatomy 🦴

I put them under the cut just in case some of yall are sensitive and don't want to see it 👇

Felis catus or domestic cat

He was a male british shorthair, a bit fat but not obese. I don't quite remember if we concluded the cause of death during autopsy but the dissection was informative (I'd post the photos but I'm afraid it would be too much 😬)

So here's a photo of mid-process assembling:

We used wires and instant glue. Gotta be careful with this stuff cuz it sticks to your fingers like crazy (and yes, there's a cow leg lying around in the background).

The one who was assembling was yours truly and I wasted SO MUCH TIME looking at the anatomy textbook to set the pose and limbs properly, but in the end it paid off. Our curator said that it was the most anatomically accurate cat posture out of all cat skeletons our uni museum had (yippee!)

(Also notice how gray the skeleton is compared to the previous photos. That's because when removing meat from the bones, we boil them and they tend to go gray, so in the final stage the skeleton needs to be whitened in hydrogen peroxide)

If you look closely at the skull you might notice that the jaws are not aligned properly — that's because my groupmate glued them the wrong way :p You need to be VERY precise in how you glue stuff, it doesn't separate easy afterwards.

Now see these two small bones right here? They are the collarbones. Fun fact about them is that cats and many other animals either have them reduced in size or don't have them at all! It depends on the species, but the main purpose of their absence is to help animals' front paws move more freely. In case of cats — to be more agile while climbing trees, fitting through small holes or walking on thin surfaces.

So naturally, these tiny bones just... reside in the muscle, not connected to literally anything.

And in this case our skeleton, I dare say, is very special, because, unlike the ones in the museum, it has collarbones in display. While removing the meat we (well, I) decided to not get rid of them and instead come up with a way to somehow include them in the final product. I came up with the idea of gluing them to transparent poles made of UV-curing glue. And as you can see, it worked pretty well 😄

All in all, it was a complicated, long but fun and very interesting process (nothing like my mute swan skeleton). This kitty-cat is gonna live forever in our museum as a display of hard work and dedication 🩷

Ayy, hello 👋🤗

Doodles from work. Here we go!

Ocs are from @icedbeverageenjoyer and @niranutcake (the interaction, dubbed a slow start of meeting new people on the tour) . And an encounter with RTV Puzzles (by @4thwallbreakerdraws2) that... not much happens, but Rayas feels overwhelmed inside.

Note: I have other RTV based drawings drawn on my computer, and hope to share them later. (Not sure if to do fan art around the rtv tour event, but oh well)

In the animal kingdom, humans are viewed like witches/warlocks: they MIGHT help you benevolently in your time of need, or they might eat you alive, or they might save you but keep you forever. So you know just how serious things are when they say to you, "Go get a human."

Oh my gosh! 😍 Thank you, I love it!!

It done here we go

❌ “Kill them with kindness“

✅ Confuse them with kindness. Absolutely baffle them. Catch them off guard so bad they stop and seriously question your sanity for a moment. "Are they really this gullible, or just stupid??" Be the small gentle ray of candour that blinds them when looking at your innocent smile. Show them the warmth that never grazed their frigid soul before. There are only two paths for you after that: you're either dead or become the light of their life. Maybe even changing their ways for the better. For both of you.

Be that change.

⭐ Was cleaning my gallery and found my forgotten fnaf OC that I made a loooong time ago lmao.

⭐ In short, they are little bots that were made to help Sunny and Moony around the Daycare (further info in the video)

⭐ So here they are! The cuties!

⭐ The best thing about this OC idea is that they are completely free to use! Put them in your fic, make a drabble, lore, fanart — whatever you want!

Just don't forget to tag me in your wonderful work, I would love to see what you come up with ☺️

Reblog to tell me you don’t secretly hate me

🤭 Oy vey look who's posting art again 🤭

I tried to make him look less traced and more ✨my style✨ (tho I don't even have one hwehuhuwhw)

Oh my gosh, I can't 🤣

Finally back and able to post this!

@mrtophat518 with Grudge Puzzles!
