#goblinweek2025

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

I saved my favorite #goblin for last!

My own personal mascot: #TrashGoblin (full goblin under that trashbag, probably)

I started drawing him a while ago to represent myself on holidays -- the manifestation of sloth and gluttony, maybe a bit of wrath. A selfish lazy goblin that works hard at accomplishing nothing productive. Here he is mad that I've spent the week drawing other goblins.

I had a wonderful goblinweek, and more fun than expected coming up with goblin designs and functions.

My feed was also consistently blessed with mischief every day.

Looking forward to next year, when I hope to have the skills necessary to make goblin music~

I've just learned about #GoblinWeek so I threw together this late entry of the most goblin-y insects I could think of.
Left is the junk bug (family Chrysopidae); the name for green lacewing larvae that collect junk on their backs, including ant carcasses and dog fur.
Right is the mad hatterpillar, or gum leaf skeletonizer (Uraba lugens), which will eventually become a dull grey moth. When these caterpillars molt, they retain the head capsules in a continuous stack.

Silly little dudes

Goblin week entry number five!

ChikaBoom is an awful gob that lurks around at airports and other places with security checkpoints.

Don't let appearances fool you, he's completely harmless -- he's simply responsible for the entirely illogical feeling that maybe you somehow accidentally packed a bomb in your suitcase.
