an exhuberant singing lizard
nameless lizard meets a management engine
Management engines are made of a thin fluid-- slightly slick, but not greasy.The "head" of the ME has like, exaggerated surface tension. It can push against things, but press too hard and you'll break through into the liquidly inside. If it smacks something hard it'll just shatter into beads of liquid.MEs are full of the sound of running water, the neural fluid is constantly being cycled and flitered.
the root of a worm
what worms are hiding in those robotic suits.They're basically shellfish, and they're "shucked" when they're put in the suits.While they can survive outside of the suits, the Root of their body is very fragile, and has to be protected from infection and abrasion.
interior of a family tower WIP
behold!!!! workin on an illustration of the interior of a Family tower. lots of unique lizards and Family tech. Let me know what you think (:
lizard encounters an ancient robot thing
poor lizard, i don't think this is ending well.
Shell doodles: ancient generators and assorted liz
The big tower thingies are the generators.
My concept for a family culture conlang.
As someone who knows nothing about language construction—My concept for a Family Culture conlang was that words are built from “attributes,” basically, adjectives, that you combine a bunch of to make a specific word. Parts of speech are also denoted by attributes. Attributes are (kind of) pictographic. You can omit as many attributes from a word as you want, as long as the meaning is discernible from context
sneak peek (:
big piece in the works. (I should add this is a crop)
Shell doodles: incense burner, hugs, fights.
A variety of little Shell doodles.
powerful artifacts in use
Powerful artifacts in use! Beam projectors mounted on a Federal airship, and what a laceratory projector... actually does. part of Astral Cicada's question.
List of neat artifacts-- see description!
Patreon reward for Astral Cicada. Thanks so much for supporting me (:A big list of artifacts with useful or interesting properties. One on the left are common, carried by any common artificer or just regular lizards. Ones further to the right are rarer, more valuable, and more specialized... For instance, there's only one Tissue Core in the world, and it lives in a federal lab.tissue core-- excretes tissue that's biocompatible with lizards and other engineered sophants and has some, weird, mind of its own. Used for advanced medical care...
Remember to feed the medical supplies.
Special artifacts, called tissue cores, extrude a goo that has useful properties for lizards. It's like, a living stem cell slurry, that will knit together wounds and even regenerate chunks of organs. A glass jar of the stuff is wildly expensive, and needs to be feed a special nutrient solution. Don't forget to feed it...
Seawyrm: large, oceanic predator
a large, segmented worm that lives in the Shell's oceans. They can regenerate from a single segment, like tapeworms.
Comic preview... new Depths project.
My lips are sealed about this project but it’s exciting :3That’s all I’m saying for now.
Lizard construction crew
3 lizards and a free custodian worm— a little construction crew! The worm is wearing a “don’t shoot me!” Sign on its neck and its back, which also contains a little Family signifier like Family rings do. Freed worms are valued for heavy labor.
Two lizards sabotaging an enemy Family’s compound!
These guys are disabling the electrical systems while negotiations happen upstairs— they’re trying to derail em’.
Big page o’ doodles— info about lizard currency, soup, etc.
Now annotated!
lizard dozer
Gotta build those huge concrete towers with something.

Recommendation: ask permission first
pets, crops, and livestock
an inexhaustive list of domesticated plants and animals, and what they're used for. Patreon reward for Match, thanks so much for supporting me (:
origins of Family Culture infographic
Lizards are really hard to raise, and it takes a village (or a family :p) to run a hatchery. Family Culture is one cultural solution to this collective action problem. Patreon reward for Astral Cicada, thanks again for being my Patreon (:
