Your recent post with the doodles made me curious, how would the different sophonts represent themselves in art? Especially concerning non-artists; like how our human shorthand is a stick figure?

Answered a long time ago: https://jayrockin.tumblr.com/post/177773167563/ https://jayrockin.tumblr.com/post/177773546818/

But this is also something I doodle a lot. Though they lean towards exaggerating some different traits than humans do, there is immense variety in the style of alien self-depictions.

Here's some more recent stuff: Wiggly bug ferret

Avian self-depictions, sexual symbols, and textile patterns

Centaur self-depictions and the nomadic sister deities

Shapes (they/them)

A bug ferret alien from @jayrockin’s Runaway to the Stars universe, sewn in February 2022. They like to be colourful and dye the white shapes along their back!

here's a crudely textured model of Pinkie[1][2] the bug ferret[1][2] from Jay Eaton's Runaway To The Stars, that I made for funsies as I learn to use blockbench c:

I might make some adjustments, and then polish up the texture, after i learn how to animate blockbench models- and then how to set up custom player model packs. I'd love to make stuff like that for my own OCs, and perhaps for various other people's species should the owners allow it. I'm finding it's pretty fun to model things in blockbench already as is!

(Rnow this one is just a static model I made just for fun, and to practice more varied shapes. I would not release an actual player model pack using someone else's species or character without permission. That said Jay if you play minecraft and would like to have RttS species custom player models,,, I'd be up for that once I like. actually know how to do the animation and such!)

some things that rhyme with certain alien species names, to some extent (bit of a stretch for some, but that's sort of the point):

bug ferret with a beret and their own parrot merits

centaur mentor who knows a lot of lore about gore but can be a bit of a bore

clown crown in a gown who has a lot of renown but has been feeling kind of down

.....birrin using a burin

there are other speculative species that i didn't include but could very well be rhymed with, maybe i'll need to draw a second version

bug ferrets and centaurs were originally made by @jayrockin, birrin by @alexriesart, and crowns by @charseraph

#rtts bug ferrets #bug ferrets #rtts centaurs #birrin #crowns #that's not how you hold a burin but i'm not sure how a birrin would use a burin

Pinkie and Brownie, for @jayrockin! I absolutely love your worldbuilding and lore - it was a pleasure getting to draw these little guys!

I was in the depths of my Tumblr blog, which was physicalized as a graveyard. I found the tombstone for a nonexistent TV show that I’d kind of liked but had forgotten about, my favorite character of which was a were-ferret named Zanabia. I found a cool bug and named it after her.

The crest of the Bug Ferret Galactic Community, a intergovernmental organization that represents the of the vast majority of bug ferret polities and institutions in galactic politics.

The crest depicts the habitable tropics of the bug ferret homeworld, and the avatars of their planet (brown and white ferret with a teal band overhead) and their large moon (pink spotted ferret with an orange fungi) surrounded by a pink cloud representing their relationship as egg twins in Star Family mythology. The homeplanet is shown transferring life to their sibling, who is imagined as having been a stillborn that was returned from death by terraforming. The six other ferrets represent the inhabited celestial bodies of the local star system. There are some expanded forms of the BFGC crest that include avatars of more or all of the inhabited worlds in their territory, which can get ridiculously large. Bug ferrets can only see red through green on the visible light spectrum, meaning their blue gas giant and bodies of water are depicted as a dark, grayish green.

Like other ferret crests, it can be represented in any style between painted realism and a "Braille" form; simple grooves that are easier for touch identification in total darkness. Bug ferrets do not use flags to represent political factions— they are accustomed to windless underground tunnels and tend to have poorer long distance vision than other sophonts, making "legibility at a distance" unimportant to them.

A boop for a strange creechur, perhaps?

Shapes the bug ferret probably qualifies as one of those...

Quote from Imagi-Movies Vol 1 no. 3 by Jeffrey Combs in an interview from 1994:

"Combs' most recent big-screen appearance was a scene-stealing turn last year in Stuart Gordon's FORTRESS, a relatively lavish science fiction prison breakout movie that proved a tremendous overseas if not at home.

"I played a character named D-Day, sort of a frightened little farret-like inmate, a retro-'60s kind of guy, who manages to stay out of everyone's way and survive in this hideous enviroment," he explains. "As the story unfolds, he turns out to be a techno-wiz and explosives expert, and he proceeds to help in a big way when Christopher Lambert devises a plan to break out. He saves the day, when it looks like all else has failed, and dies- a heroic end. I was pleased with how it turned out. The role really builds and expands as the movie goes along." "

#the fact he calls dday a 'ferret-like man' is everything to me #dday #fortress 1992 #jeffrey combs #interview #this is one of the only times i've heard or seen him talk about dday! #the other time was when he was talking about wearing eye contacts that cancel out his bug-eye glasses so that he could still see out them #internet archive

Centaur Comet and Bug Ferret Fritz!!

Comet dresses just as garishly, though she's without markings because I didn't have centaur ethnicity references on hand. Only to realize later that centaurs generally have stripes no matter what so

Fritz being a bug ferret was such an easy choice. look at the pupils. are you kidding me

Centaurs and Bug Ferrets created by the lovely @/jayrockin!!!
