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.
Some friendly fire revenge of CherriLyme’s meerkat. Picked him cause I used to be obsessed with meerkats as a preteen. I finished the main drawing yesterday, but noticed earlier today that they had added that they’d like to see Thomas drawn being clumsy, and it honestly worked out in my favor cause I am not the best at drawing characters interacting with furniture and he’s a bit unbalanced in the main drawing.
I hit the random character button on ArtFight and came across taffypet’s cute furry pink polyamorous boygirl. I just had to draw him with my own furry pink(loving) polyamorous boygirl. It was a fun challenge designing their outfits and playing around with the colors. Went with a sleeveless top and shorts for Henny because I just love her patterns too much to cover them.
First time drawing one of my pal @nerdwingarts‘s characters for ArtFight. The outfit was probably the most challenging to come up with (you can tell my expertise lies mostly with modern Western fashion) but I had a lot of fun just drawing those giant wings.
Artfight attack for @food-with-ghastly-rice of their punk satyr Kinsin. Had fun coming up with the outfit.
Another ArtFight attack, this time friendly fire upon HazelSkye. I love me some galaxy print (or at least a gradient with sparkles) so as soon I saw this little cat-bat, I had to draw her. Brings me back to my days as a teen designing galaxy patterned kitties.
My first ever ArtFight drawing. This one is of @summer--starz’s feline Kibibi. I have a soft spot for maned lionesses, so I immediately jumped on drawing her.

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.
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.
Rounding out my furry world with a friend/coworker of Camry and Matonne. He’s based on suggestions from some friends to make an intimidating-looking, but actually kind guy and a beefy feminine man (and no, I did not notice the pun until just now). He’s also my first ever mostly muscular character, a body type I’m much less confident in drawing.
Taking a bit of a break from designing furries and diving into something I haven’t done since high school, space art. I would usually just manipulate photos to create such images, but I wanted to try my hand at drawing and painting instead (especially since I use Procreate now instead of Photoshop). There’s a lot of areas I know I can improve, but it was nice jumping back into an old favorite art genre of mine.
Boyfriend and girlfriend Camry and Flora snuggling.
Yet another gal to fill out the furry universe Matonne inhabits. Hopefully I can get these out quicker and then start doing some real art with all these guys.
Just another drawing of Matonne.
Trying to get more comfortable with my natural way of drawing and not fuss with too much over making a perfect end product. Hopefully this get me outputting more art.
Just an experiment with brushes.
My friend @arrowawsome has been playing the Sims 4 and been keeping me updated on the goings on of its virtual neighborhoods. Of course, I feel in love with its space-loving romantic bi-gender bookworm sim and just had to draw him.
The character’s name is Eevee Zelda and has the pronouns she/him.
Properly made a ref sheet for another character, this time this cat guy.
He’s a friend from college of Bev and Matonne. Survives mostly on coffee, tea, and assorted chips while roommating with his co-workers/business partners of the thrift store.
And yes, he is named after the car.
Just playing around with brushes and color.
Accidentally posted this to my main blog.
Updated the design and finally gave a name to that one cat girl I drew years ago. Friend, girlfriend, wife (depending on where in the timeline things are) of Matonne. A generally quiet gal who likes to spend her Ike reading and writing contemporary fantasy. Can frequently be found in libraries, bookstores, hobby shops, and whatever patch of nature sparks her inspiration.
My friend @tytoalbias recently created a new DnD character, Elleguire Dubois. Upon learning Elleguire’s backstory, I took a liking to his very queer, very GNC, and very lycanthropic family and decided to draw my take on the Dubois parents.
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.
Weirdly Specific Artist Ask Game
Didn't see a lot of artist ask games, wanted to make a silly one.
(I wrote this while sick out of my mind last year and it's been collecting dust in my drafts, I might as well let it run free) 1. Art programs you have but don't use
2. Is it easier to draw someone facing left or right (or forward even)
3. What ideas come from when you were little
4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw
5. Estimate of how much of your art you post online vs. the art you keep for yourself
6. Anything that might inspire you subconsciously (i.e. this horse wasn't supposed to look like the Last Unicorn but I see it)
7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate
8. What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in

12. Easiest part of body to draw
13. A creator who you admire but whose work isn't your thing
14. Any favorite motifs
15. *Where* do you draw (don't drop your ip address this just means do you doodle at a park or smth)
16. Something you are good at but don't really have fun doing
17. Do you eat/drink when drawing? if so, what
18. An estimate of how much art supplies you've broken

25. Something your art has been compared to that you were NOT inspired by

27. Do you warm up before getting to the good stuff? If so, what is it you draw to warm up with
28. Any art events you have participated in the past (like zines)
29. Media you love, but doesn't inspire you artistically

Had the lineart for this sitting in my iPad for several months and decided to just bite the bullet and complete it last week. Here be my current versions of Ahadi and Uru with their currently three kids, Mufasa, Taka, and Jamaa. (I’m on the fence about giving them more kids.) Given that he’s just a scruffier Mufasa, I decided to make Simba’s uncle from An Unusual Choir biologically related to him through Mufasa.
I’m also really in love with the idea of Ahadi having a bi-colored mane where at least one of the colors doesn’t match those of his sons. As for where Mufasa gets his red mane from, well Taka/Scar’s and Uru’s mane/tail tufts are actually an extremely dark and saturated red, so I figured Ahadi’s much lighter mane would give Mufasa his red one. Or maybe it’s a recessive trait on Uru’s side of the family. In some scans of The Brightest Star, Mohatu’s mane is reddish.
The green eyes and brown nose are definitely recessive traits from Uru.
Been playing quite a bit of the Sims 4, and these two are among some of my favorite digital dolls. Darrel is the first child of the first two sims I made in the game, and Roberto is from the third household I ever made. Currently, they’re married with two kids. While the unmodded base game doesn’t allow for it, in my head Roberto runs a small game dev studio, and Darrel watches the kids in between being a music tutor.
Gonna be posting some old drawings over the course of the next few days. Wanted to draw Alex in a crop top, but couldn’t decide on whether to put them in jorts or a suspender skirt.
