I'm Assembling A Summary Of Art Because I Do It Every Year, However, This Year's Has Been Really Annoying

Yoooooo

Update: I redid the ref's background and changed her name, but I left the original description under the cut

New OC?? Technically. Not really. This is Anthropos, a character I made 3 years ago and redesigned a week or two ago. She has dug her claws into my brain and is refusing to let go.

Anthropos was one of my sonas in 2020 (although I barely used her). You can see her first design on the ref, but I also have a very underwhelming redesign from 2021 that I’m not going to bother with linking because it sucks, and I spelled her name wrong on it. What’s going on with the name? Reasonable question. It’s short for Anthropomorphic Aposterous.

You can see the old design on the ref. Look at it. It's so ugly. I can't believe I made that and didn't hate myself for it. The new version is a lot better imo. I tried to make the demon theme (because that's a thing) more apparent since the original is just an anthro cat with horns and four ears.

Note: she has a sort of mohawk and a set of long blue spikes at the base of her tail that I couldn’t include on the ref because it’d look weird. Her tail is also technically longer than seen here.

K thanks for reading, bye

I'm probably going to lose followers if I keep reblogging random stuff from fandoms my followers probably aren't in but. I need to remember this

Lemon demon rarities folder released

Reblogging because I'm feral for wing anatomy (in other words I have Opinions about it) and maybe people will find it useful

Good Resources:

Puget Sound Wing and Tail Collection (where all the wing images I used came from)

Animating Bird Flight (great resource for ALL artists)

I haven't been super active lately (I forgot Tumblr existed, oops) but I made this at some point in February. It's my sona, Cosi. Drawn for a DTIYS I'm hosting on DA. It's still open so you can join if you want

WIP for a new Cosi ref!!!

I really need to post more... trying to get over my aversion to posting WIPs. A full description will come when the ref is done!

Art trade with mushroomaaaart on Instagram, ft their OC, Miko!

I'm very happy with the background on this one. I installed the newest CSP update last night, which FINALLY added chromatic aberration and a variety of other useful features, and it really helped with this. Miko looks pretty cute here too. I think this looks kind of like a Warrior Cats book cover. Lol

I'm still experimenting with my art style, but I think I'm getting closer to something I like. Right now I'm trying to focus on lineart because I feel like my lines are pretty boring and I want to make my digital art look a bit more like the pen sketches I like to do. I didn't try very much to do that in this drawing, but I probably will in the future.

Time spent: 4h 20min (legitimately lol)

the mental health is not mentally healthing rn guys.

also, i keep forgetting that i have tumblr. oops
