One Of Two Pieces I Did For Art Fight This Year. Rather Fond Of The Colors In This One!

Yeah sure I'll post that

Wooooo another character ref! Two in one day, actually; what is going on???

This is Binx and she's a professional racer! Those funky little wheels on her feet kinda work like roller skates. Her racing name is The Tootsie-Roller :D

She was designed pretty much entirely by my buddy Devilbinx! fr usually I change a couple things up when I redraw refs but she is already just perfect, didn't have to do much of anything

Relaxation meme. Whew I’m graduating super super soon, it’s terrifying! Needed a blorbo break :P

Hi! I want to preface this by saying that I mean absolutely no disrespect; nothing but support to my fellow artist, your style is unique and valuable and that doesn't go unappreciated!

With that being said, I really do not think this technique should be relied on for beginner artists. The individual parts are there, but with fundamentals it's REALLY important you understand how they're put together; they serve as the basis for everything you draw and getting to know them right can save you a TON of hardship in the future!

It's also worth mentioning that the sad truth is that neither of these techniques are gonna take you only fifteen minutes if you're drawing anything other than a sphere haha, but I really enjoy the process personally! Everything's made out of shapes, so put on a video essay about some game you've never heard of and do your thing, it's therapeutic!

Remember to be careful when it comes to online tutorials and not just take my or any other rando's word for it! I'm not an expert; ideally you'd be learning things like fundamentals from professionals. Marco Bucci and Proko are two of my favorites who provide their super valuable knowledge for free on YT in really digestible ways; they've helped me a lot throughout the years.

And, most of all, remember that there's really no wrong way to draw as long as you're having fun. If you're getting something out of the experience, then you're doing it right!

Happy arting, everybody! ^^

fast rendering tutorial for when you dont want to put in any effort

First draft of this was done at like 3 AM and looked like total crap. Thankfully it’s now a reasonable hour and it looks slightly less like crap! Though I did some more experimenting so it’s not totally crapless, but that’s okay, ‘tis just a silly. Enjoy!

Excuse me but I'm heart eyes @ all of your art SO HARD right now. I found your youtube channel a few months ago but I didn't know you A) ALSO DREW THEM and B) are also in BC? Vancouver Island??? (Not sure if you still are, I was just reading your About Me) ... AND you work with bats, wow you are SO FUCKING COOL

Anyway thank you for sharing, I know literally 0 other people who know of Zaput and Zosky so this has truly been a trip down memory lane. <333

So sorry it took so long for me to answer you, this is one of the nicest messages I've ever gotten and I wanted to make sure I replied in a way that showcases that! You've made my entire month, seriously I keep coming back to this and it always makes me smile, something especially appreciated right now! (I've lived on the island for over a decade but am currently in the process of moving, which totally sucks. Just heading across the pond to Vancouver though, still very close!)

K&Z was super important to me growing up and when I learned so few people knew about it I wanted to change that! They are so iconic to me fr, always so glad to meet fellow fans; I know that every time I do I feel super excited so there's also an aspect of self-indulgence there of course. I am very normal about this obscure Nicktoon from 2002 that nobody's ever heard of

Anyway, thank you so much for such a sweet ask; making people happy is why I upload so it's always so so appreciated to hear it working. Much, much love to you! <33

About Me

Hello there, welcome to my Tumblr! I’m Emily, a stereotypical polite Canadian with a love for art, science, and a little bit of everything else. As my username suggests, I’m deeply enraptured by chiropterology, having begun working with the Vancouver Island Community Bat Program when I was 15. I am trained to handle bats and assist in keeping track of local populations as well as educating the public about our dear flying friends.

I’m a cheerful yet super nerdy person. I love sunshine, cuddles, parties and bright colors just as much as I love deep-dives into Wikipedia, biology, puzzles, and collecting dead insects. I believe in kindness, compassion, and the goodness of people, and so I’m pretty chill and friendly; if you ever wanna chat, nerd-out, or just say hi, go for it! I’m totally cool with all forms of jokes or remarks, feel free to poke fun at the wonky eye I drew, swear like a sailor or tell me about the time you found a weird lump on your pinkie toe. I really do love people, though I do have a social anxiety disorder and a general predisposition to be a brooding introvert so I apologize if I don’t respond right away. <3

About This Blog:

This blog aims to be a place for me to showcase my art. Perhaps the occasional status update will pop up, but generally I aim to just give you content! No politics, divisive topics or general downers; the internet’s got enough of that as it is. This is a place where you can forget about the world for a bit and (hopefully) just enjoy my art! I don’t reblog to this place and I know that’s awful Tumblr etiquette but it scratches me brain in all the right ways when my page is clean, so all my reblogs are over at @batsylabs. Follow me over there as well to see top-tier memeage and posts from my awesome friends!

I tend to draw a lot of animals, mainly anthro but some feral. In my works you will hopefully see both my zest for life and my love for the beautiful details of Earth reflected. I think our universe has its own intricate beauty and I like to use the references it gives me to craft strange creatures and fantasy settings that feel just as plausible.

I also draw a lot of fan-art. Like a lot. My favorite right now is Gravity Falls, specifically my @love-triangles-au​, but I have a good deal more!

As of now I focus on digital art, realism/semi-realism for animals and similar styles to the source material in terms of fan-art. In the future I would love to experiment with styles, but I’m rather textbook in my approach to learning and am focused currently on knowing the rules before I break them. I’m deeply passionate about self-expression and believe all art deserves love, from the most abstract of modern arts to the intricate worlds toiled over detail by detail.

About Requests:

I really love these and I’m always open to them, ESPECIALLY ones about my favorite fandoms/interests! Shoot me an ask if you’d like, I don’t bite and honestly the sentiment alone would make my day! :Dc

DO NOT INTERACT:

- If you don’t want to

- If you don’t like Wessex (rest in peace my sweet boy 💖💖)

Have an awesome day! /|\^. .^/|\

love this shape (the trim angel) 😊

My finished entry for the CoS thumbnail contest! Oh man I worked my ass off on this, made half a piece (poll winner; #7) and then decided I didn't like it and went with my personal favorite. Churned this baby out in about four days which is quite the speedrun for me.

There are a ton of super gorgeous entries so I don't expect to win, but I think I have a pretty decent chance! Either way I hope you enjoy it! :]c Happy recode release week!! I am beyond hyped fr

Meet Közel! You'll never guess what the theme was for this dude. Leave me alone with my autistic swag
