Second one that will travel to Eurofurence with me. Hyperspace bat! 
Could use some brushing, the fur is super soft, and slightly longer than I expected originally. But space everywhere! If you'll visit the artist alley at the con, you can get this one. But same as with the shark, I will only have one. (And with this the blue / pink fabric is already gone. Cute (but expensive 
) material.

Bat keychains are back in stock! 
I’m curious how many of those I made since they were first released; probably over 50 by now! I have to say that I still really enjoy making them and they’re still one of my favourite design to date!

#Bat Cave Footage Offers Clues to How #Viruses Leap Between Species
Video from #Uganda depicted a parade of predatory species feeding on and dispersing #bats known natural reservoirs of infectious #diseases.
He filmed more than leopards. 100s of nights of footage revealed a steady procession of 13 additional predator species, among them large-spotted genets, African civets, African fish eagles, African rock pythons, L’Hoest’s monkeys and baboons.

I've been sick all week (am still sick), so here's a few fruit bats for #FlyingFoxFriday
Even though, its hot, humid and sunny, I'm starting to feel the embrace of autumn (and Halloween) creeping towards us! This cemetery print of mine always makes me feel suitably spooky.
On my shops and also available at Derby Museums Shop for their 'Dracula Returns to Derby' exhibition running now until 30th May 2026! Go check it out.

Enjoy another bat release slomo video! :D
It has been a fun week of field work. I really enjoy spending time in nature with other nature geeks as we all work to protect this planet 
(Handled under permit for a conservation study, never play with wildlife without proper training and permits!)
Added the promised white ones. 
I have one of the light blue and one of the light pink. Wanted to try something else and made them of only minky fabric. And they turned out even fluffier with slightly thicker wings!
If you are interested in getting any of them, I'd love to send you one. They have been added to the shop page:

Probably a terrible pun, but after the megabat plushies, I've scaled them into the opposite direction to see how that turns out and… well 
I have two black ones, if you'd like one. I have to keep the price tag from the normal sized ones (sorry for that), because they take just as much time to create. Even a bit longer because structures are really tiny.

These are created with the pattern from https://www.beezeeart.com/products/stuffed-animal-bat-sewing-pattern-plush-toy-pattern-pdf
Apparently the bats also discovered it's easy to swoop in and scoop up the insects that got "trapped" under our skylight during the day. Note to self; maybe don't sit out there at night 
The bats are out in force again this evening. They got so close I could hear their wings flapping
Howdy dowdy! I was meaning to start posting on mastodon again, so here's a recent piece I made of my characters!
It's a little sketchpage of my guys doing their own thing!
