Today's # prompt was "antenna", and well it's also #, and hey so apparently WE HAVE TREE SHRIMPS NOW. That's right, an expedition in Indonesia discovered tiny shrimps that live in trees, far from shore. So here's one of them looking regal AF in a lush tree.

Thanks @enriquericos for bringing the Breaking Shrimp News, truly a joyous weekend.

Pixel art of a small yellow shrimp sitting on a lush jungle tree branch.
A newly discovered species of shrimp that LIVES IN TREES, Y'ALL. Discovered by Expedition Cyclops in the mountains of Indonesia, this little guy does not live in the water, it's just humid enough in the jungle that they can hang IN TREES.
 
Today's # prompt was "moon phase", so I figured what if the moon had an emo phase? And then I got distracted remembering Spiderman 3.

Also it's #, so there's a ghostly shrimp in the foreground.

A ghostly shrimp looking up at a moonlit night. The moon is going through an emo phase with "hair" casting a shadow over it that looks an awful lot like Tobey Macguire in Spiderman 3.
 
What if the Alien Queen was a Giant Space Shrimp? Recycling existing pixels for Shrimp Sunday led to this mashup.

# # # # #
Low resolution pixel art of a blue giant (about 2 meters tall) shrimp, fighting Ripley from the movie Aliens wearing her yellow exoskeleton. The environment is industrial and dramatically lit from the left. The characters face each other (Shrimp on the left) as in those old arcade videogames.<br />The letters LV2 are shiny white and on top, because they give a videogame / Aliens production design vibe.
 
Today's # prompt was "biscuit", with a restricted palette (seen below). It's also #, so this shrimp is cookin' up some excellent biscuits. I tried giving it a chef's hat, sorta worked.

The palette made this idea a little difficult to execute, but I'm really happy with it!

Today's # prompt was "hearts", and it's also #! I just happened to get to see one of these little friends up close today, it's a grass shrimp from the Chesapeake Bay!

(apologies for the blurry picture)

Also, super happy to be back using # again now that I'm home!

I'm late to shrimp sunday but here it is a little "rodolfo langostino".

cute little red shrimp
 
I was *so close* to finish my Shrimp Sunday Masterpiece in time... but my brain gave up, so I'll post a WIP showing a bit of my process.

Screenshot of Pixel Studio for Android. Pixel art showing a finished background and three stages of development of my Giant Fairy Shrimp: initial tentative lines, blocking with few colors and adding features like the legs and some color.<br /><br />The shrimp is swimming on its back, legs up, as this species appear to do often.
 
More # pls

There's still time :shramp:

Shramp art! Go go go

Getting some real # (ShrimpMonday?) vibes from this one
 
Want to start participating in some fun hashtags as an opportunity to find new folk to follow, and get some followers yourself?

# is a tag for sharing a photograph with no other information (though provide as much as you like in alt-text!). People often post quiet, contemplative shots here.

# is a celebration of our shrimpy friends! Be it photos of your pet shrimpicles, or art depicting shrimp in all their beauteous wonder.

# - pretty flowers :artcataww:
 
I didn't participate on yesterday's Shrimp Sunday and I don't have the energy to do it today, I need sleep. Instead of taking full responsibility for my actions, I'm blaming this octopus.

But fear not, @ephesossh saved the day with his rocket shrimp.

Shrimp and Crab from last week's # are friends now. I apologize for nothing.
Pixel art, underwater scene: a cartoonish crab rides a shrimp, jumping off a dune. Shrimp isn't as expressive as Crab, but they are both happy about it.
 
If you forgotten what day of the week it is, don't worry!

I'm not exactly OK (nothing too bad, don't worry), so I couldn't make a new shrimp, but I used a previous post, pasted some ducklings, improvised a bit of background and now it's a freshwater oversize shrimp.

And I did it because Shrimp Sunday is my duty and I must come out of my Mastodon Temporary Retirement to uphold the Tradition.

Low resolution pixel art, vertical format. The upper half shows two white ducklings on the surface of a river or lake, trees and blue sky serving as background. The bottom half is underwater, where I shamelessly pasted a previously uploaded shrimp walking on sand.
 
We need to make # a thing? The solution is shrimple!

It's #. Thought I'd share this uh... peakock shrimp dragon thing I made for smaugust last year.
A dragon based on a peacock mantis shrimp. The creature has a pair of antennae that resemble fake eyes.
 
It is my duty to upload a shrimp today. I couldn't finish my Peacock Mantis Shrimp because of headache reasons. Same reason I can't make a proper speech thanking you all for helping make # A THING.

So I leave you here this WIP and my thank you.

*Cries, sobs. Goes back to rest, overwhelmed by emotion*

There's a # tag so I gotta join 🤩

watercolour painting of a sequence of panels. The panels show freshwater shrimps (amano and cherry) being netted, bagged, and checked out at a aquarium store.
watercolour painting showing a comic spread. The left spread is a painting of orange eye blue tiger (OEBT) shrimp on some plants. There is text that says "I'm originally from southeast Asia! Orange eyes, blue body, and black tiger stripes."<br /><br />The right spread is a comic about the OEBT called "A considerate tankmate" where a sleepy red cherry shrimp is trying to sleep, but is light sensitive and  can't sleep with the light emitted from OEBT's orange eyes*. To help prevent this, the OEBT puts on some sunglasses.<br /><br />*Please note that OEBTs do not have glowing eyes in real life.

Digitally drawn and painted comic about shrimp. This image shows a spread of two pages. Left page features a story titled "Influencers" which includes some wild type shrimps talking about some crystal grade influencer shrimps. One brown speckled shrimp is losing confidence in themselves, while the red speckled shrimp offers them food and reassurance.
 
Apparently over on mastodon.art it's #, so please enjoy a very silly thing I drew many years ago. #

Next batch of baby shrimp have started popping up to say hi on # .

Note the blue adult in the background for scale... Took some effort to get the focus on this little dude!

Release the shrimpen!

Come to think of it, I have no idea how a live shrimp really looks.

I’m not an illustrator by any stretch, but still couldn’t resist #. Always appreciate a silly prompt. 🙂

The tag is for celebrating the joy of shrimp as living beings, but as we're a creative instance, let's see some shrimp art :D Share some you've made previously, or join in by doodling a new shrimp for the occasion. A few folk create shrimp pixel art if you'd like to try that :meowybara:

Release the Shrimpen!
 
For # I need help not being a desk shrimp while I draw!
 
Tomorrow is #

Prepare your shrimp, for the shrimpening will soon be at hand
