Les petites choses brillantes

Rest in peace to the incredible Anthony Stewart Head (20th February 1954 - 1st June 2026)

A branch of the wild rose

That's right folks, it's the photos from Operation Babybara are now live.

There are now a few hundred photos of adorable baby capybara on the repository page for the species! But I can't just say they're up and not show you immediately...

For those just tuning in, the trip to photograph the cute potatoes was completely funded by the site's incredibly dedicated - and apparently capybara obsessed - supporters.

See the rest here:

The Animal Photo Reference Repository is an independent, permanently open-access project and funded entirely by donations. Artists creating derivative or transformative works (without AI) have blanket permission to use all photos in the repository as references.

I'm going with Dratini idc I think it has a cute flow

The rules are included in the survey, but I'll write them again here for additional clarity.

Only one submission per character per submitter, although there are no restrictions on how many entries you can make overall.

The tournament features exclusively fictional characters and will not include any real life individual. This includes: Prominent historical figures (including real-world activists) Youtubers and streamers (including V-Tuber personas and Minecraft youtubers) Any real-life animals

All characters submitted must be from some form of published media, indie or otherwise, and any submissions for OCs or characters that cannot be verified will be removed.

Characters and media found to be strongly and/or deliberately offensive, bigoted, or otherwise harmful, can and will be removed from submissions

As a result of the Champion's Belt match, Donatello Hamato does not qualify for participation and nominations for him will be removed. All other returning contestants may be re-submitted.
