channeling accident
notice the dark lines snaking up the lizards arm-- these are conductive tissue burns. They've burned the magic veins underneath their skin.
hatchery
It's very difficult to raise healthy lizards.Lizards bodies' have extra, artificial organs. These aren't implanted-- they're born with them, and they grow as their bodies do. However, this puts a lot of stress on their young. These "extra" organs require exotic materials which aren't naturally present in the egg. Furthermore, they will siphon nutrients and other resources away from the rest of the lizard. Caring for eggs is difficult process, and requires a sterile laboritory environment.Fertile eggs are rare to begi...
moth design
Insects, or moth people, are one of the first things I came up with-- the only thing older than them is Lizards themselves. Originally, they were a kind of foil to the lizards. Lizards are artificial custodians, they're equipped to build and repair things. With that in mind, insects were going to be artificial artisans. Lizards help produce goods, while insects help produce art and cultural services like music, poetry, writing, and diplomacy.The Shell, with all of its ancient grime and machinery, is not where insects are from. They might ha...

The Shell in its prime
Anyone with an education knows that the ruins are artificial, or at least formed by a different process than the rest of The Shell. /Most/ researchers agree that they're the husks of old buildings/machinery, but the purpose and function of any individual structure is very difficult to discern. Because ruins have very few doors, windows, railings, handholds... or anything that would suggest that their inhabitants were bipeadal, it's generally agreed that they were pretty alien in body plan. Although nobody has them pegged as "slime m...
Renowned Sculptor
commissioning a huge statue of yourself isn't really in line with family culture values. it takes a particularly egotistical asshole to do it anyway-- this sculptor hates most of his clients. But the money and influence his sculptures bring is the only thing keeping his family afloat, so he soliders on. It's not easy knowing that you're the only thing standing between hundreds of people and starvation.Patreon reward for Match

As you can see I'm still fond of moody lizards.

A "fight" between a lizard and a chunky worm.
Dear Patrons (Patreons??)
Dear Patrons,What I created this Patreon account, I didn't for a minute think anyone would support me. The fact that I was wrong continues to be absolutely astonishing. I deeply appreciate your support and it's hard to articulate how much it means to me.I wanted to make a few little announcements.First of all, I apologize for my lack of activity lately. Summer has been difficult in more ways than one, but I hope to get back to regularly posting art in the next few weeks. At the very least, I promise to keep this Patreon up to date. Furt...
Yamtal: miners and artificers at the edge of the world
another lizard family.. Yamtal, miners and artificers at the edge of a toxic desertthe desert is made of tiny ceramic shards which, depending on the size, cut and splinter and slice into your cells. It's basically asbestos.the ceramic desert is filled with the guts of the ancient structures it was made from so it's a rich place for mining and artificing. plus that ceramic dust is a valuable additive for concrete and steel
entryway
before entering a family's compound, there's a ceremonial washing-off ceremony, taking place in the entryway.It has a very practical purpose aside from the ceremonial one: stopping you from tracking dirt everywhere.entryways range from a bowl of water in the mudroom to a massive, monolithic reflecting pool, depending on your family's resources and the desired effect. Do you want visitors to feel welcomed or intimidated?

Those buildings look *way* bigger than they're supposed to.

This is one of my favorite pages, especially the center panel. Lizard is confused and alarmed.

My thoughts exactly, lizard.

A better view of our lizard friend.
