Forgot To Share My Other Little Guy. She Is The Daughter Of A Wealthy Merchant, Selling Fish And Fish

Uhhhhjj should I try to get into art fight this year? Finals r coming up and I don't want to. But I want to... Ahhhhhhh

Cult of the lamb sketch I've been working on. Considering making a comic however my computer is broken, so I can only use my pencil.

I'm not good at making both sides look the same so I only draw on one side, and when I want to make it digital I can use the mirror feature.

Got a lil sketchy near the end around the cat skull as I was being attacked by a stupid baby

Very silly

My dear people of the internet, I have some genuine questions for you regarding mythological creatures:

1) I've come to the conclusion that fauns and satyrs are basically the same creature, with slight differences in terms of their animal-human ratio, as well as their mythological origins. That said, my question is... is there a specific name for the female of the species?

2) Regarding centaurs: As far as I know, the "centaur" is the name given to a creature that is half-man and half-horse. However, I've seen variations where the animal species varies, for example, lions, deer, dogs, etc. Most of the time, I see that the suffix "taur" is simply added after the animal species to refer to this creature... is this correct? I mean, is this how they are described? Or is there a general name to refer to these types of creatures?

3) This is similar to the first one and is a comparison between sphinxes and manticores... at a detailed level I know they are different but in general terms... are they the same but with different genders? I have seen many sphinx arts and despite the fact that they are different, most are female, while in the case of manticores there is variety between the animal species involved in the design and in the same way they are almost always male, equally between both (sphinxes and manticores) there are similarities. So my question is, are they technically the same? or not?

If you know anything about the subject and can share it with me here, I'd be so grateful. I'm tired of trying to draw characters and wondering what they really are or how to find references, so any help is appreciated.

[If I mentioned or mentioned any fatal errors, I apologize profusely. My interest in creatures is just resurfacing after years of burying it under the bed... that's why I'm here to learn a little more :'3]

A very curious Pyroraptor spots something interesting (a cycad seed) on the forest floor, and is just...tickled pink by it for some reason.

Reblog this to spread the word, I'm tired of the enshittification of the things I use in my day to day life.

I’ve had awful art block lately, but Scarlet has set me free.

My headcanon voice for her is Susan Sarandon’s portrayal of Queen Narissa from Enchanted. It’s perfectly villainous, theatrical, on the deeper side, and has a fittingly raspy quality to it. It helps that many of Narissa’s lines sound exactly like something Scarlet would say. I ended up listening to her lines on loop for the duration of this sketch. Also ended up drawing inspiration from her for Scarlet’s physical appearance as well. They’re both evil queens so it fits.

Final sketch paired with my first iteration. Didn’t give her any jewelry this time around but I’ve got some concepts in the works.

Wing armor!

I tried keep the armor fairly minimal to avoid adding too much weight to the wings. People have suggested covering the wing with chainmail, but i feel like the weight from that would render flight impossible or at the very least difficult. This configuration protects the most likely place to be struck by a weapon, those being the front outer edges of the wing. I’d imagine the armor can also be used sort of like a shield that can block incoming slash and such!

Thank you! He's such a a neat little guy. Im going to draw him later.

I really like Doom teller, #2. But I've never done adopts before. Can you explain it to me?

Sure. Adopts are where someone draws a design/makes an oc and then offers them up to other people. A lot of times people sell adopts but this case, they're free.

When you adopt a character the design is yours and it's your own oc to do whatever you please with.

Nobody's claimed Doomteller so you can have them if you want.

hot artists don't gatekeep
