[Image Description: A fat, dark-skinned person wearing glasses, dressed in a loose pink shirt and pants, and with their dark curly hair tied back in a bun is standing on a balcony, their back to the viewer. They are calmly viewing the row of forested hills in front of them and the sky that is bright and partly cloud. End of image description.] Wanted to practice drawing backgrounds, so I tried my hand at doing some hills and a daytime sky. The character was originally going to Matonne, but decided to draw Alex again instead.

A little something I’ve been working on for the past 2 weeks. Since I love fashion and patterns made up of “unconventional” components, thought I’d try my hand at making something like that. It’s nothing spectacular, and I don’t expect much to become of it, but it was nice to try out.

Two drawings of a grey and white cat named Felicia Silvestris
A drawing of a black and orange kitten named Amese
A drawing of a black and white kitten named Tucker
A drawing of an orange cat named Henry Calico cuddling with Amese and Tucker

A long while ago I had a dream about an anxious cat who worked as a professor at a mostly human college. After gaining a few more furry followers, I drudged up these drawingd of said cat, his kittens, and his ex/the other parent.

Some notes on this little family and the world they live in.

Cats in this universe look like cats in our world but with human-like intelligence, behavior, aging, and lifespans.

The cat to human ratio is about 1:9.

Cats are typically matrilineal and matrifocal. Things like surnames, property, and social status are traditionally inherited through one’s mother. Cats also tend to be closer to their maternal families than their paternal ones with it even being acceptable or expected for a cat to not know their father in many feline cultures.

Henry and Felicia had a family less conventionally. Henry was more ready to be a parent than Felicia, and after trying and failing to raise the kittens together, they broke up and agreed for him to take the kittens.

Tools, buildings, transportation, and so on exist specifically to accommodate cats, though how readily available and effective they are varies.

Cats only wear minimal clothes and accessories for aesthetic, professional, or ceremonial purposes. More extensive clothes are usually only worn to protect them from the elements.

Just like real cats, they can only eat meat, though some cats can also eat dairy.

[Image Description: Cartoony Drawing Of A Brown Humanoid Furry Character. This Character Has The Head

[Image Description: Cartoony drawing of a brown humanoid furry character. This character has the head of a rabbit, tail of a lion, and feet of a horse. He is wearing a long-sleeve blue shirt, a blue plaid button up, black skirt, and silver earring. End of Description]

An old drawing of Matonne wearing an outfit that I actually own, minus the earring. I took a thermal from a Walmart, an oversized button up (that was also the first item from the men’s section I ever owned), and a skirt I wear as a tube dress. Makes me feel particularly genderpunk.

Reference drawing of a curvy humanoid feline. He has a white body, black hair with bangs, and a short thin tail. He is wearing a yellow t-shirt, a long-sleeve white undershirt, and khaki shorts. He also wears a chest binder and walks with a yellow cane.

The following info is listed about him:
Name: Tristan Rex
Species: Somali Hedgehog/Cat
Pronouns: He/Him
Height: 5 feet 6 inches
Birth Year: 1999
Occupation: Thrift Store Worker
Gender: Male
Orientation: Polysexual/Penultisexual

I am finally done designing the crew. Now I can actually draw them doing stuff.

Introducing Tristan, cousin, roommate, and co-worker to Camry (and also housemates with Joan). I tried giving him a Y2K look. You’d think with him being a hedgehog, frosted spiky tips would be the best but I could never get them to look right.

[Image Description: A digital portrait of a light brown lion cub. This lion cub is a young Zira from The Lion King 2. End of Description]

A quick little drawing I did yesterday of cub Zira. I’ve decided to dive back into the fandom after dipping out shortly before The Lion Guard aired. The landscape of the fandom (and fandoms in general) has changed quite a bit since the mid 2010s, and I like what I see.

Also decided to play around with going with my own style over sticking to the Disney’s. The above eye shape I’ve switched to spots and made the ears vertical to better match real lions. I’m still tweaking how I want the ears, but otherwise, I’m happy with this one.

[Image Description: Four Sketches Of A Humanoid Creature Standing And Dressed In Various Outfits. This

[Image Description: Four sketches of a humanoid creature standing and dressed in various outfits. This creature has tan fur, a rabbit-like head, a long tufted tail, and hooves.] [Starting from the left, in the first outfit she is wearing a pink jean jacket with art pins on it, a dark blue striped shirt underneath, and pink shorts.] [The second outfit is the same dark blue shirt and pink shorts, but without e jacket.] [The third outfit is a white cropped tank top, short black leggings, a red feather boa wrapped around the creature’s arms, and a golden choker on her neck.] [The fourth outfit is a purple and black striped button-up, a gray graphic t-shirt underneath, and black bejeweled jeans.]

Some sketches I did of an older character. Gave her some hooves, because I hate drawing feet and shoes and don’t really care about footwear fashion. Her name is Matonne, and I’m thinking about using her as my fursona, since I tend to mindlessly doodle creatures that look like this a lot.

Reference drawing of an anthropomorphic dark gray monkey. They have only one arm (their left arm), shaggy, white and black hair several tattoos on their left arm and inner right thigh, and several piercings on their ears, face, and tail. They are wearing a black collared shirt, black pants, glasses, an Ankh necklace, and silver chains on their pockets and shirt collar.

The sheet has the follow info on it about them:
Name: Joan Trebgé
Pronouns: They/She/Xe
Birth year: 1965
Species: Moustached Tamarin
Height: 4 feet, 11 inches
Occupation: Thrift Store Manager
Gender: Nonbinary Woman
Orientation: Bisexual/Pansexual

The owner/manager of the thrift store Octávio and Camry work at. I wanted to design a character who spent their adolescence and young adulthood in the early goth scene and never left it behind. Well at least the fashion and music; they’ve mellowed out a bit in the new millennium.

He is wearing a pale yellow t-shirt, a pink skirt with a pattern of pink and yellow lemon slices on it, and a pendant necklace and earrings resembling lemon slices. The background is a pink watercolor lemon slice. End of Description.]]

For someone who loves fruit patterns, I don’t own any clothes with fruit on them. Guess that’s what a fursona’s for.

A reference sheet of a humanoid furry character. The reference sheet has two drawings of the character standing, one with clothes and one without. The character has tan fur, shaggy medium length brown hair, the face and ears of a lion, a short brown beard and mustache, a thin hourglass body, a long tail ending in a brown tuft of fur, and dark brown hooves for feet. In the clothed image she is wearing a black t-shirt with sunset colored stripes, blue jean shorts, black leggings, a pink flannel shirt wrapped around her waist, and a silver hoop earring on one of her ears. This is her main casual outfit. Between the two drawings are information on the character and her color palette.

A reference sheet for Matonne's fashion style. There are two drawings of Matonne, one in her main casual outfit and the other in a drag/party outfit. Her drag/party outfit includes a large black blazer with a large collar, with sunset colored gemstones lining the collar and ends of the sleeves. There is a sunset-colored cravat around her net. Underneath her blazer is a pink vest and a black jumpsuit with a glittery sunset-colored swirl pattern on it. She is also wearing, sunset-colored nail polish, gemstone earrings, gemstone ring, eye make-up, and horseshoes. Her hair and mustache are curly.

Between the two drawings is text that reads:

Three full body drawings of Matonne from different angles, front, back, and the side.
Seven drawings of Matonne’s head from the front, back, and side. In three of the drawings, Matonne has facial hair and longer hair. In three other drawings, Matonne has no facial hair and shorter hair. In one of the short-haired drawings, there are blue X’s on Matonne’s ears. In the last face drawing, she has facial hair and a ponytail. There is also a drawing of her mouth slightly open, showing her sharp teeth.

The image includes text reading:

Usually has facial hair and mid-length hair
Sometimes clean shaven and/or has shorter hair
X’s indicate where piercings are
Hair is occasionally tied back
Long sharp canines
Five drawings of Matonne expressing different emotions: happiness, amber, tired, sadness, and sultry. There is also a drawing of her tail resting on the ground.

Beside each picture is text reading:

Happiness:
Ears perk up
Mouth open when elated
More animated

Anger:
Ears curl backwards
Shoulders tense
Teeth bared 
Growls when really angry

Tired (due to chronic pain):
Ears fall
Slight furrow in brow
Shoulders slack
Slight frown
Eyes half lidded

Sadness:
Ears fall down
Body tends to curl up or sink back

Sultry:
Becomes more theatrical
Hands fall to chest
Eyes half lidded
Speech is softer

Tail falls when sad or low energy

Decided to make some changes to my fursona and make some more extensive references for her. Wanted to give her facial hair and make her ears smaller to better show off her earrings and allow her to emote with them. I also removed the extra colors from her hair cause they were a bit difficult to work with at different angles.
