Some Friendly Fire Revenge Of CherriLyme’s Meerkat. Picked Him Cause I Used To Be Obsessed With Meerkats

Just an experiment with brushes.

I wish it weren’t so cold out today, cause I could really go for a donut from the nearest donut shop right now.

Another old drawing of Matonne (hence the streaks in her hair) that I just now spruced up.

[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.

Something I drew forever and a day ago

Last night I had a dream about this cat who was a college professor of media studies. In the dream, he was freaking out because he’d misplaced his bus ticket, which he needed to get home to his two kids (he’s a single dad by the way), and was asking everyone he could for $20 to buy a new one.

Got no name for him yet, but my friends and I are workshopping one. Right now, I’m leaning towards Henry Calico.

Also, I’ve decided he’s now Alex and Zahra’s teacher. Yes, he is a teacher at a mostly human school.

A set of quick colored sketches of Matonne again. Really helped me to get my creative juices flowing again and experimenting with poses and expressions.

[Image Description: Seven drawings of a brown anthropomorphic character with the ears of a rabbit, tail of a lion, and legs of a horse. She is in a different pose and outfit in each drawing.

[In the first drawing, she is slowly walking and wearing a turquoise tank top with the letters SD on it, colorful floral leggings, flower earrings, a flower bracelet, and a flower on her tail.

[In the second drawing, she is running and wearing a pink and white t-shirt, a pink triangle patterned headscarf, and pink triangle patterned leggings.

[In the third drawing, she is walking with her eyes closed and wearing a black dress with sunset-colored stars on it, a sunset-colored bow on her tail, sunset-colored eye makeup, and gold jewelry.

[In the fourth drawing, she is laying on her belly, reading a book titled Duck Fails. She is wearing an orange plaid button up and brown pants

[In the fifth drawing, she is standing and looks angry. She is wearing a blue sports bra with the word “Boi” on it, blue shorts, a yellow, pink, and purple skirt over the shorts, and a rainbow scarf on her tail

[In the sixth drawing, she is sitting down and looking at her hands. She is wearing a red sweater with a silver heart on it and silver pants with a red stripe on the side

[In the seventh drawing, she is sitting and laughing. She is wearing a pink and blue vest over a spotted pink, yellow, and blue blouse, pink and blue pants, round gold earrings, pink, yellow, and blue eye makeup, and a spotted bow on her tail. End of Description]

Been meaning to draw this cute little ball of cosmic fluff.

Had some doctor’s visits that took me away from art, but I am back at it with JayeBirde’s a colorpoint kitty. Decided to play around with some color filters given how quick I pumped this one out.

Another drawing I dug out of my Discord to finally publicly post, this time of what I imagine Murderbot’s internal anatomy to be.

A breakdown:

Brain: Includes human neurons, a combination organic and inorganic hypothalamus, and computer brainstuff (including the threat assessment and governor modules)

Sensory Organs: Very sensitive and adjustable eyes, ears, and nose. Technically also includes the plating on the back of its head to allow it to wirelessly link up with other digital systems and the nerves all along its body

Respiratory System: Lungs are small and unidirectional, more akin to a bird’s or reptile’s than a mammal’s for greater efficiency. (Thank you to Your Dinosaurs are Wrong for teaching me that.)

Heart: Also small. Transports everything to the right place including oxygen, energy-source molecules, hormones, immune system nanobots, and so on

Power Cells: The main power cells are situated in the chest. There are power cells surrounding the brain stem and spinal cord to better fuel mental processes as well as cells in the abdomen just in case the main ones become damaged or depleted. It also specifically has power cells just for its arm guns

Waste Management: It may not eat, but its cells would still produce waste. This inorganic organ is for holding and processing said waste (as well as pathogens and other unuseful materials). It decomposes these materials into something that can be breathed out, used as fuel, turned into new cells, or (rarely) just sit there until these organs are drained or replaced during surgery

Cell Production: To reduce the risk of genetic mutation (and to make up for the lack of bone marrow), all new cells and nanobots are produced here from stem cells then distributed to the correct parts of the body. This is mostly just red blood cells, but also includes a few other cells. Note that my current headcanon is that constructs can heal on their own, but far slower than humans and are near completely reliant on external medical care to repair damaged body parts

Hormone Producer: It mostly makes adrenaline, but it can make other stuff too like oxytocin

Support Structure: Very tough and not as heavy as you’d think futuristic metal. Arteries and veins flow through it

Muscles: Mostly inorganic

Guns: It has energy projectiles in its arms. I do not understand weapons, so that is all you’re getting

Subcells: Because its limbs are detachable, its larger joints have power cell + waste management systems in them to keep the organic parts of said limbs operational for a short period of time. Also helpful as an extra source of power and waste management when the limbs are attached

Immune System (not shown): All constructs have a nanobot-based immune system that does a pretty good job of protecting them from pathogens that would harm their organic parts. This artificial immune system is pretty aggressive since constructs can’t reproduce and don’t have to keep other microorganisms within them to survive

Weirdly Specific Artist Ask Game

3. What ideas come from when you were little

4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw
