Sorry if this looks like a copy of anything. My time was crunched so nothing is very good.
This is a spaceship that took some time

Meet the Rund
Runds are a large carnivorous species that produces asexually. The large “horns” on its head are actually its reproductive system. When a certain branch of the “horns” get too heavy they fall off and implant themselves into the ground. The parent Rund is aware of when it’s “horns” get too large and make sure to find a suitable place to drop their horns. They often try to drop their horns in the same place. About a week after the infant Runds implant in the ground they will begin to rapidly develop small “nubs” that will develop into legs in due course. The parent Rund is extremely protective of its offspring and approaching one is ill-advised. Another week after the legs begin development a stalk-like structure will emerge from the center of the infant Rund. This will grow into a mouth. The parent Rund, when spotting this stalk, means that the infants are ready for feeding. The parent Rund will quickly kill and swallow the nearest animal life form. Once done digesting the parent Rund will regurgitate the animal on top of the infant Rund, which will slowly soak up the remains. Mature Runds will display sensory organs on the front of their reproductive organs which sense vibrations. These sensors often grow sporadically and, on occasion, will pierce the Rund itself. The Rund’s body is extremely muscular to support its boneless body. Runds have no given symmetry and therefore can often have more than the usual three legs. At the end of these legs are vertical slits. When blowing air through these slits they make a distinctive rumbling noise similar to thunder. This is how mature Runds communicate to other creatures and Runds that they are present.

Whispers: can you even see it?
no I cant see it try posting the image again
That already exists. The development forums are there for that same reason - limiting the discussion to actual work on the game.

I’m not sure if you know, but Thrive universe fanart usually has to be fanart of a pre-existing species or civilisation in the Thrive universe, like the cyclids or something. We already have an abundance of threads for this type of art (2d art thread, new thrive logos, etc.)
