Do you have any resources for pose references?

God no, sorry. At most I trace the skeleton of a meme if I'm redrawing it or watch an anime with veguely similar concepts, but my posing is freehand and attrocious for it, and I'm terrible at collecting references. You can probably find someone on deviantart I think I remember seeing references there back in the day.

my 2 moods are:

- im baby

- im small bastard man i wanna hiss at the sun

Red Foxes, the animal that imo appears the most and is given the most misleading size descriptions and depictions in the books. They’re cat size. They’re literally cat sized. Please, Erins, they are cat sized. The fox kits Lion Jay and Holly find and are chased by? Might have actually been smaller than them if the books were accurate. I can’t really blame most the animation community for depicting them so large, because they’re described as being huge canonically, to the point you’d think they were coyotes or wolves with how much damage they can do sometimes. But really though, they’re not that big. They’re smaller than geese, weigh less than badgers, are definitely smaller than large dog breeds, and often only taller than cats because their necks and legs are longer, but their mass? just about the same as a cat’s.

Interesting thing about foxes, though they’re generally solitary hunters they don’t mind sharing opportunistic meals with competing species. Would they fight with the clans? yeah sure, but I think it would be possible for the clans to have some stories of foxes doing things that are playful or collaborative and be really confused about it.

since i made a post for inti here’s one for latte too????

latte is. a guy. his name is latte because i worked at a coffee shop when i got him (original). he’s about 12 years old and i found him in an ad online. he was owned by a BP breeder and because of his deformities and issues he wasn’t a breeding prospect, which is totally fair. what wasn’t fair was he was obviously neglected, kept in a small plastic drawer with no enrichment and just a water bowl, his excrement was still in there as well. the guy did the right thing by putting him up for sale if he didn’t have the time or interest for him, but still. that treatment of him wasn’t right. anyway

he has a deformed tail which he seems to have no feeling in at all. he doesn’t know how to shed his skin - he’ll go into blue and then just sit there and occasionally rub his face on things, but nothing more, so he needs bathing monthly and i have to help him shed. he has a head wobble and went off his food for almost a year for seemingly no reason. he’s Very head shy and will freak out if you go near his face (usually).

he just like. forgets how to snake. but then one day his brain cell Activates and he’s suddenly uber hungry and active. i’d love to know what goes on in those neurons when his snake side awakens

he’s a very sweet guy who just wants to chill but has no idea where or who he is at any given time. that’s okay i love him <3 best impulsive preloved buy ever.

For all the stealth archers out there...
