Mexican presidial lancer, 1836.
The presidial (from "presidio," not "presidential") cavalry was formed originally by the Spanish to basically provide a flying squad to colonial settlements. During the time of Santa Anna, the presidials were invaluable as scouts and light cavalry.

Also I made this toile style pattern last year. Perfect for the walls of a trendy bar or vacation villa or whatever other place you might want to subtly evoke a colonial vibe for some reason.

Disappointing, when one searches for "paleontologist" in stock images, you largely get pictures of men in cowboy hats or colonial pith helmets, searching for theropods, in a desert.

(disclaimer, very small portion of palaeontologists actually do that)

US Colonial Marines from Aliens, drawings... Likely the best 'sci-fi soldier' design tbh.

I watched Wednesday netflix and I give solid 8/10! I love it so much!🤩🤩🤩

While big theme of this story is "reject settler colonialism", I understand why they put romance subplot; especially this show targets to youth audiences.

But in the same time, I dislike love triangle.

I recently acquired these excavated pennanular (literally “almost ring-shaped”) earrings from an old collection. They were once worn by our precolonial ancestors, both males and females. The use of these types are confirmed in Boxer Codex drawings from the late 16th century.

Here’s a character design challenge I recently did for a discord I’m a part of. The prompt was to design a character based upon on the image on the left. Hope you enjoy fancy colonial mage man. ✨

United Colonial Republic of Earth (UCR/UCRE) secessionists.
Systems across the UCR started attempting to drop out left and right. Some of the administrations remained loyal to the gov. Those ones saw far more civilian insurgencies

Wait precolonial PH was heavily Indo-Malayan with religious roots stemming from Islam and Hinduism... So maybe - and also apparently bc this design fits the place really well - I should make Dahuyo a Natlan immigrant from Sumeru 😯

Another zombie cartoon, Go Make Disciples.

Playing on the harmful colonialist idea of making everyone else exactly like us.

I still own the original to this one.
