My little 4.75" gauge box motor (named "Inky), was so happy to come out again after the LALS spring meet that she ran over her own people-catcher. Photo taken at the Southern California Live Steamers in Torrance, CA, by my friend Alex O'Donnell, on 8/8/26. #livesteam #minaturetrains
Don't I know it, they can try to hide but I still see em...
The Crown Jewels: My proudest HO scale projects and ones I bring everywhere with me if running at other layouts. #modeltrains #southernpacific #steamlocomotive
It's a faaaaaaaaake X3 I can't afford a real one so I spent 1/10th the price on this. Still sounds the same as a real one.
Happy #SharkWeek2026, everyone! Instead of individual sketches this week, I worked on one big pic to have finished before July ended. This was my most complex drawing yet, at one point having *40 layers* to it! Hope you all enjoy! Characters credited in the alt text! #sharkfurs #furryart #myart
And now it's all done and colored! Rizz is a big ska fan so she feels more open skanking in a moshpit. Razz, on the other hand, will vibe just about anywhere. #sharkfurs #thirdwaveska #myart #furryart
And her own daughter, a 1” scale/4.75” gauge freight motor named “Inky” ^^
Some warmup art to get back into the rhythm of drawing: The TIburon Twins cutting loose! Gonna color it later but I'm just happy to get some drawing done today. #sharkfurs #furryart
June 7 to July 16, 2026: Railings have been installed on the tanks and cab sides and new copper rivets on the side of Electra’s tanks. I really need to get back to art…
…should I be worried? #HazbinHotel #Vox #VoxHazbinHotel

An update on Project Electra: it has been a riveting experience this week. However, it’s so satisfying to put greeblies on your models. Also, plenty of stairs too.
I'm excited for the World Cup Group 1 Stage matchup today for.... no real reason.
As I'm continuing on my little Electra project, I've made up this general arrangement drawing to both get myself back into art and get my ideas out in a visual medium so I can stop talking in circles. Hope you all enjoy it! I'll be happy to entertain questions. #livesteam #PacificElectric #myart
Happy #Pride2026 from the Tiburon Twins! Full name reveals in the alt text! #sharkfurs #furryart #pansexual #lesbian
Got bored today and decided to spend the morning painting my Suydam brass "Electra" model into a facsimile of how my 7.5" gauge one is going to look. The lettering is subject to change on the big one as I have more room to work with the kerning. That said, I like how this looks! #modeltrains
(Had to reupload because of a colouring error.) "One Down, One to Go, another town and one more show." Happy #Pride2026, everyone! Especially for my partners @libralabs.bsky.social, @undesired-fonts.bsky.social, of course Atti. #FurryArt #Yes #Polyfurs
Update! With the completion of the hoods, phase one of Project Electra is complete! She’ll be living in my bedroom while I pivot to art projects I need to have done, but I’m very glad to have gotten to this point!
Razz as a drink: the Blue Raspberry Refresher at Ihop. Tastes like a melted ICEE. #SharkBoySummer 🦈
Update: She now has a cab! I also began fabricating the hood. Once I refabricate the hoods tomorrow using my adhoc brake press, I can pause the project for now and work on art comms again.
Working hard on Project Electra the last couple days, had to reengineer the frame and then start building the superstructure. Look at her! I’m so proud!
I saw an urban coyote today in my neighborhood. It is a good omen. Today will be a good day.
Field research for the Electra project brought me out to the real thing at Traveltown. I went at her with a tape measure and a dream. Eventually I have to convert all of these into 1/8 scale but now I can build her superstructure. Stuff like the curved roof just needs some finessing. #trainart
After some additional research, I've improved Electra's maroon scheme into something more plausible for the period, but also more tasteful. While it sucks having to get rid of the fancy filigree, I know for certain a locomotive like this will stand out massively.
