Wanted to PNGify a bunch of my critters for the upcoming wiki. Enjoy! (PSSST. Some of these guys weren't showcased! Seecrets!) WARNING: Long post!
Two opossums, normal and albino.
Ravens. Left to right, top to bottom- albino thick-billed, pied, common, thick-billed, white-necked.
Crows- white-necked, slender-billed, generic grey, collared, northwestern, albino.
African bullfrog with tongue out and tongue retracted.
Grey and brown Toulouse/dewlap geese.
Canada goose.
2 things- one: cooking that assassins au up (recent events forced me to change some lore) and two: posting that Blockbench post early so enjoy that!
hii! I'd love to learn more about Aves if you'd like to share. Why do they take the shape they do when they do?
Alrighty! Can do.
Aves is my main OC, and also a representation of my therianthropy and otherkinity. Aves uses any pronouns including xenos and neos, like me.
Besides that, Aves is mainly a tribrid manticore/dragon/griffin cross, to represent the three upcoming open species I’m working on for a worldbuilding project. Aves also has some aspects of smaller species from that same world, but they’re unimportant :)
As for their appearance- they get their body shape from dragons, mostly. They have heavy keratinous scales that they got from manticores, and feathery fur they got from griffins. Aves has several pairs of wings- three sets of “flight” wings, an ornamental pair of trailing wings, a wedge-shaped pair on their tail for steering, and if you’re being specific the three sets of fins on their tail could be considered wings as well, I suppose. Their tails (of which they have three) are very long and whiplike. Their colors shift depending on their mood.
important Aves note- depending on who Aves is talking to, they can switch forms to match. If they’re speaking to a manticore, they take the form of a manticore. Same for griffins and dragons.
As for the lore- Aves is a progenitor, or the creator of all species in the world’s creation myth. They’re the head of the pantheon, and represent opposing forces- life/death, joy/sorrow, sickness/health, wrong/right… et cetera. Because of this, their right side is twisted and corrupt, and their left is pure. According to the myth, two children sprouted from their two side tails- two gods, one just and one corrupt. These children imbued each creature of the Earth with three traits from each (the fox, for example, is cunning, tricky, and sly (bad) but also loyal, noble and free (good)).
Aves also wields this flamethrower-gun-thing known as a gigantomizer. Feel free to ask about that (and its smaller form, the atomizer). That has to do with The ORiON Project, my WIP comic.
Huh. I wonder who it could be.
For Naturality's fifth update, birds.
PS. I'm going on a two-week vacation. I won't be making any more Blockbench posts until my queued one goes off this Wednesday. I'll still be posting art though :)
bingle bee… the only thing i’ll probs ever reblog to main.. yea say hi guys,, message me on disc, give me asks, ask about my OCs… it’s the way i worldbuild- ask question, get answer that i def didn’t just make up <:3

BUGS BUGS BUGS! But the good kind.
Alrighty, let’s go through all the mobs and their features! Left to right, top to bottom, image one through image two. Since this’ll take FOREVER, use the read more! Look forward to a part two focusing on even more bugs!
SNAIL
Snails spawn in forests and swamps. Snails leave a harvestable trail of slime that can be affected by their food- make it bouncy (by feeding them blueberries), fast (raspberries) or honeyed (honey bottle). Snails come in various shades of browns, grays, greens and ruddy berry colors.
GIANT WATER BUG
Spawning in the beaches (any body of water, really), water bugs are defensive and will attack if you get close. When tamed by obtaining their eggs, water bugs make for good guard dogs- they can be commanded to stay, follow, wander, and by shift-clicking- set to neutral, passive or aggressive. GWBs come in shades of browns and blacks.
SLUG
Slugs spawn in jungles, and leave behind trails that can be used to make redstone components with upgraded signal strength. They come in shades influenced by real-life slugs- pictured is the rare banana slug.
MEALYBUG
Ah, mealybugs, the bane of any farmer. Spawning on crops, mealies eat and suck at crops until they’re sated. However, if you’ve befriended any ants, these bugs become a source of hearty honeydew, which when bottled makes for an incredible food source. Mealybugs only have one color- a dusty, pale white.
FLY
Flies spawn around carrion blocks, buzzing around and being general nuisances. Flies can be tamed by feeding them rotten flesh, and can swarm around attackers on command, descending down from the heavens to make enemies’ lives living hell. Keep an eye out for the rare tsetse and horse flies, larger and more dangerous breeds. Flies have two variants- brown and dark grey.
LIGHTNING BUG / FIREFLY
During the nighttime, look out for fireflies in the distance (since they only spawn during the night). Fireflies can be bottled and tamed with fruits, and can be placed down for a light show. Non-entity fireflies spawn around Naturality’s frog species and certain grasses, if you want the two-pixel variation. Fireflies can be dyed both as entities and as bottles, and dyeing them colors their lights. Fireflies come in a few different variants, all based on real-life species.
COCKROACH
Cockroaches spawn in Naturality’s new caves (the limestone cave and the sunken jungle) as well as in the new beach grottos. Cockroaches can be used as clean-up-crews, consuming detritus and fertilizing farms as they make their way around. Smaller cockroaches have a tendency to swarm players just like flies, and all cockroaches can be tamed. Cockroaches come in a horde of variants based on real roaches, like B. giganteus (giant cave), B. dubia, M. longipennis and B. germanica (German).
MAGGOT
Maggots are the larvae of flies, found in carcasses. They can be itemized and used to tame other creatures, if you’re a monster.
DRAGONFLY
Dragonflies spawn around bodies of water, attacking other insects to eat their fill. They can be tamed and their wings used to upgrade elytras. Dragonflies also can be used as the poor man’s elytra- allowing you to hover and slow-fall. Dragonflies come in some green and blue colors, and one iridescent one.
APHID
Another crop-destroyer, make a farm and the aphids will come. Unlike mealies, they can’t be harvested, only itemized or used in fiber and wood farms after being tamed with offerings of plants. Aphids have one variant- green.
ISOPOD
Isopods spawn in forests, and are used to culture molds and other fungi. They’re basically crustacean puppies. Also see my prior isopost for more colors. Pictured is the rubber duckie variant- the true amount of isos is a secret :)
BUTTERFLY
Butterflies spawn nearly everywhere during the day, and during the night are replaced with moths. Butterflies are basically bees, only instead of honey, they’re used to obtain nectar, which functions as natural potions that give different effects depending on what flowers they come from. Moths, on the other hand, work as glares- they dislike darkness and will point it out if given some nectar as a treat. Butterflies come in a horde of variants.
LADYBEETLE / LADYBUG
Ladybugs and other beetles of their ilk spawn in the plains, and are useful for their shells- which can be made into tough armors. Ladybugs suck at crops, and if tamed will trawl through your fields, picking only the good bits out.
GIANT ISOPOD
Giant isos spawn in the deep seas, and make a living cultivating mosses in the depths. Perhaps you could gain their trust and use them for your own good? The ways of these depth-dwellers are a mystery. They come in three variants- light, dark and pink.
Congrats! You made it down here. Have a cookie 🍪
a hint for what’s coming later today- this update’s full of bugs :)

new blog alert!
image description blog (for reblogging all my posts over the next couple of days with image IDs)
check out this blog if you’d benefit from image descriptions on my post, or if you just like seeing me slooowly convert all my posts lol
i’ll probs go in chronological order
wowza its mark powell!!!! more comicposting (help) while i work on some mc concepts and au stuff lol
perspective hates me and i hate it right back
yea i’ll probably edit this guy later on.. none of my concepts are final (indecisiveness RHAHHHHAHHHHH)
he’s a cool guy i guess.. i wonder what he’s holding. fun fact- this was originally jackie powell holding curtain rods and crochet, giving another rat a sick crochet tutorial so do with that what you will
sick sketch below the cut
i’ll be back to minecraft and assassins stuff as the universe intended shortly <:3
HEY BUCKAROOS! REALLY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!
I’ll be leaving for a two-week cruise in a couple weeks, where I’ll have no Blockbench access. So, if you want a model or skin, tell me now! I can still do concept art and stuff, but actual BB? Nope (well… unless I can get mobile Blockbench to work…). So, DM me any critters you want made!
Don’t worry- I’ll be queueing up a bunch of models while I’m gone so you can still see progress. And of course I’ll be concept-arting in the Caribbean! Look forward to a bunch of art, guys. Also vote on that Assassins poll. You’ve a day left. Furry sweep! /j
yea rats yea rats
[Image ID: Three images of a parade of rats over a transparent background. The first image is a drawing of a brown rat, a grey rat, a yellow rat, a white rat, a pinkish rat, and another brown rat (6 rats in total) all following each other, surrounded by green and yellow dots. The second image is of the same drawing of six rats, only they alternate between dark colors and light colors, starting at a dark grey and ending at a light grey. They are surrounded by rainbow dots. The third image is the same as the second, only the dots are two shades of deep blood red. /.End ID.]
Three rat dividers. The first I made for an animal showcase over on my other blog Proxxicles, and the other two I made for fun. Featuring gay rats and gothic rats!
Look forward to more dividers.
RAT Redo!
The previous rat model and feature-set wasn’t up to par with what I want Naturality to be, so here’s the NEW reference sheet / feature list. Rats are found in abandoned structures around the Overworld, and also spawn in forests.
The model for these guys will be done next week. For a variety of rat color variants and some more info on rats and mice, check below the cut!
COOOLORS rahhhhh
There’s more than these, I swear! Anyhoo, rats are tameable by feeding them seeds and crops, and can perform a lot of menial tasks for you, from farming to hunting. While one rat is relatively weak, a swarm of them can overpower nearly any foe.
Mice spawn naturally in nearly every biome, and will return to their nest blocks at night. These blocks can be silk-touched, and work as a storage block for mice and rats alike. Mice can detect infested blocks.
While itemized rats are really only useful for storage (rat depository when?) and warning of danger when in your hand, itemized mice can be used as bait for larger creatures, weather forecasters and some other secrets. Rats and mice both dance to jukeboxes.
You can also find the rat divider I made for this over on proxmojis in a bit.

RAVENS for the Naturality: Farms and Fields Update! Found everywhere from taigas to savannas, ravens are crafty little buggers with a love for logic puzzles. They'll trigger any redstone they come across.
CAWWWW
CROWS for the upcoming Naturality mod's first update- farming!
These guys are the farmer's enemy when wild. They fly from farm to farm, uprooting crops and causing general mischief. When tamed, however, they make for good companions for travelers, farmers and warriors alike. Few things can stand the frenzy of wings and talons that crows become when angry. Their plural name murder is quite apt, I suppose.
As for farmers, crows can be commanded to pick bugs and other greeblies out of the soil. Said bugs find use in crafting, food, and taming.
Proxy's Note- I really hope for a release this year :)
Follow for more info about my various mods!
More pics below the cut!
Crow backs and individual crow portraits.
I know you little guys like animations- boy do I have a gift for you! Two things actually- I updated the goose textures so they're a bit less noisy (and then was so excited I cranked out an animation in like 30 minutes) so enjoy the continuation of the GOOSENING!!!
ALSO coding has begun on Naturality! Hoping for a release sometime this year!
i want to beat IntelliJ to de- oh someone said something
As always, obligatory Discord plug-
More info, pics and a super secret new item teaser below the cut!
Dewlap geese. Boy oh boy were their textures hard to do. They're very soft fellows- I fell into an over-reliance on near-invisible gradients until another texture artist snapped me out of it. Also self-indulgent back texture pic because yes, I am that guy.
OooooOOOoOoOO! You've stumbled upon the bottom of the post!!! oOOOooooOooooooOOO I wonder what this could be for...
i owe you guys some non-Minecraft art :)
Some explorations of both comic characters and my own OCs for The ORiON Project.
It’s real fun finding explanations for the existence of furries. I’ll post more comic stuff sometime, don’t worry!
More info below the cut!
The two sticking out like sore thumbs (purple lion-thing and literal dragon) are both versions of my OC Aves, a representation of how I feel as a therian. It can switch between numerous states, but most often presents itself as a griffin/manticore/dragon tribrid.
The comic itself is about a lion trying to save an underground city from destruction :)
hey so if anyone knows of an assassins (2004) bootleg that *doesn't* look like it was shot on a microwave please tell me
i have a point to prove here
tinysweetnight found it- it’s the power rangers Dino charger energem :)
thank god
i can finally rest
search and find
ok so
there's this dinosaur robot toy thing that i've been searching for for ages
it was this little (like hold-three-in-your-hand little) toy with a canister with a picture in it, double-sided
you could get different canisters and flick a little button on them to make the picture switch between like a dinosaur skeleton and a fully-skinned dinosaur???
i wanna say it had a kinda sci-fi theme?? they could've been straight up robots too
i used to have one- i loved it
first one to comment or dm me the answer gets a free Minecraft skin or mob of their choice guys please help this is driving me up the wall
so uhhh
i got feedback on the grey one
here!!! grey 2.0!!!
GEESE will make their way to the first Naturality update- birds and other farm-folk! I know- big news. Anyway, on to the meat of the post- about these lovely birds!
Geese, specifically the Canadian goose (at far right) and its fellow wild geese, spawn in virtually any body of water. Canada geese find themselves in the cold, attacking any adventurer who dares get close to their nests. Dewlap geese (far left, middle right) on the other hand spawn in the rainy highlands of the Overworld. The domestic goose must be bred, but will occasionally spawn in villages.
Geese can be tamed and fed various items. Feeding them bread gives them weakness.
HONK!
