Tigerstars Death (2023)

This is SO COOL!!!!

Above image is a pride flag with every color band represented by a NASA image. White is Earth clouds, pink is aurora, blue is the Sun in a specific wavelength, brown is Jupiter clouds, black is the Hubble deep field, red is the top of sprites, orange is a Mars crater, yellow is the surface of Io, green is a lake with algae, blue is Neptune, and purple is the Crab Nebula in a specific wavelength.

My friend says she looks like the American flag. Is this ture

Vee?? Wtf???

Uh, so I don't like Vee's canon design, mostly her palette. A green palette could work, sure, but her specific palette is not good. Primarily because the two shades of green are almost exactly the same value (which makes them blend together), but also because it makes her look much more like a computer than a TV. Besides the colours, it kind of bothers me that she (and many other toons) are basically completely naked.

So I wanted to take a shot at redesigning her.

Here, we have a red/blue/grey colour scheme. This just makes the most sense to me; when I think "movie" or "TV" those are the colours I think of. The red and blue are also supposed to mimic 3D glasses.

She's fully clothed, in a suit because what else would she wear. Gave her white gloves bc the light value draws attention to her hands and makes her gestures easier to understand. Her face and tail glow for the same reason. I'd have Vee's tail always showing, by the way. I do not want to know where she puts it in canon. Uh. Anyway, she has a belt chain too bc they're cool.

Will make a good drawing of this design at some point, but I'm feeling lazy tonight, so yeah.

Ok that's it byeee (I will go back to my regular stuff eventually, I promise, but feast well in the meantime)

P.S. Reblog if you wanna see my other toon redesign ideas >:)

Yesterday (maybe the day before) Hibiscus_Cove on TH just kind of. Gave me a character. And this is the character's new ref!

This one isn't quite as refined as my usual art because it wasn't supposed to be a full thing at first. By the time I decided to finish it up I was too far along to redo the lines lol. I still like it though.

One of the main design changes was adding more colours and patterns. I tried to stay true to the OG though, and I think it worked? I also gave them a bit of an outfit and I changed their species. They were originally just a dragon, but I've got a species I'm developing and I'm looking for more OCs to add to it, so yeah. This guy got hit by the species beam.

Likes and reblogs are greatly appreciated! But don't feel obligated of course :3

HI CIN! i just moved over from DA and HI if u need any help navigating the site lmk :D

Alright! I'll hit you up if anything confuses me too much lol. Nice to see another person I already know here, and gl on Tumblr!

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)

Origin of Flight in Birds

Animating Bird Flight (great resource for ALL artists)

Faces

I have an honest to god Pavlovian response to the Camp Here and There afternoon and evening announcement songs
