Cuttlefish girl?
YES! I've loved cuttlefish since I did a research project on them in like 3rd grade and well, now they're a cute girly :3
It's been a while since I've done any character design sheets or anything, but this was a good way to get back into the groove of character art after working on my less figurative AP art. It's nice to work on something for my own enjoyment lol.

Inspired by the other post, could we get a non-binary flag from an flamboyant cuttlefish?
Sure thing! I was already planning on doing the ace flag from the image, so you’re in luck!

After showing off my cresties color changes now I wonder what your favorite color changing critters might be?
Color Change:
Well, hands down, it would have to be cephalopods. They have amazing color change capabilities... especially the cuttlefish!

Idk about y’all but valentines memes have been my favorite part of the holiday since I was an inappropriately young child on the internet
So I made some cephalopod themed ones for your enjoyment <3
These puns are ones that did not make the cut for our actual Valentine’s Day cards shown in the last image

Last night: Half asleep while scrolling through my feed, I misread "Juvenile Cuttlefish" as "Bovine Cuttlefish." Somehow it became this.
I am easily a-moo-sed.

Hehe. Just a quickie animation of the octogirl for kicks. Fun fun.
Maybe I'll do a better treatment later. ^_^
Would you go out with a tentacle person? What if they weren't slimy?

It rained here all of a sudden, and staying home and drawing tentacles suddenly seemed like a good idea. Good thing too, as I probably wouldn’t have drawn this at my usual boba tea place.

OKAY BUT MY GIRLFRIEND LITERALLY MADE ME A CUTTLEFISH?? AND IT IS THE CUTEST??? HOW DID I GET SO LUCKY (annoyed cat for size reference >w>)

this was just a silly little practice to get myself back into 3D. I couldn’t decide if the gummies were intended for cuttlefish or humans so I made sure the flavor was inclusive to both 🥰
Cuttlefish nation is now a community pls join
Here’s a lovely little sepia bandensis (dwarf cuttlefish) to break in my new crayons
this one is for you cuttlefish nation. i hope you are all having a fantastic day.
In which I achieve a lifelong dream, of sitting on the seafloor with a bunch of giant Australian cuttlefish
This morning I checked a major bucket list item off the list: hanging out w/Giant Australian Cuttlefish. They're super focused on mating, and are shockingly chill about people hanging around. I'd heard this was true, but whew, it was wild to experience firsthand.
It's a rare thing for an animal to reliably be found at a certain place & certain time. So often "lifer" animals depend on luck to seen. With these cuttlefish, so far it's been like clockwork. Late May-August, go to Whyalla in winter, and there they are, resplendent and numerous.
Good news:they're reliable + stunning. Bad news: Whyalla is a friggen hike from Philly & the water is a bit chilly (58 degrees F today). If you want to swim with them, you better get a thick wetsuit on and maybe be a bit cold (I was honestly too excited to be cold).
Seeing mating behavior up close was so completely amazing. The males perform dominance displays where they roll black bars across their body directly at another male. It's mind-blowing to see in person. They generally do it with the half of their body facing the other male.
hi cuttlefish nation how r u all tonight?
IT'S A STICKER NOW!! :D Link Here!
Metasepia Pfefferi, aka the flamboyant cuttlefish! These little guys have a much smaller cuttlebone relative to their body size (compared to other cuttlefish species), and therefore cannot swim for very long. For this reason, they can often be found walking around on the sea floor using their lower arms.
IM SO EXCITED I MADE MY FAVORITE ANIMAL EVER INTO A STICKER !!!!! AND YOU CAN HAVE ONE TOO!!!!!
