#Octobestiary Entry 5: Hoopsnake. While it can SLITHER like its brethren; it will grab its tail and swiftly roll itself like a wheel to dash after quick prey, launching itself at them while hitting a high velocity.

Entry 4 for #Octobestiary: Ashrays. WATER faeries that are often mistaken for sea ghosts. They are nocturnal, for if they are hit with direct sunlight, they will melt into a rainbow puddle.

#Octobestiary Entry 3: Enenra. These DELICATE yōkai are said to be spirits rising through bonfire smoke. If you are pure enough to see them, wish them a safe journey!

#Octobestiary  Entry 2: Stymphalian Bird. A bronze beak and each FEATHER like a hidden blade, avoid at all costs.

#Octobestiary Entry 1: Wendigo. Beware their CLAWs; they reek of death, for they can never stop hunting.

I haven’t updated my tumblr in a while, but I will share the finished commission I've been working on during some of my art streams (oh btw I started streaming too https://www.twitch.tv/the_protagonist). It's of a cosplayer friend in Yuna cosplay with her two cats. She doesn't have a Tumblr, but thank you for your patronage, Mindi!

Rocker sis, Katt, thinking about what K.K. song she wants to cover next. (she's constantly singing in my town and it makes me super happy)

I got Nine Requests for #SixFanarts, so here they are! Thank you to those that requested characters! I might do another one of these next week if people are interested. (or if there's a different challenge going around!)

Animal Crossing Family Photo Commission I did for a friend of her, her bf, and their two cats! Thank mew for your patronage! If you would also like to commission one of these to celebrate the new Animal Crossing coming out, feel free to check out my rates and DM me! Watermark plastered over to respect the commissioner’s purchase.

I decided to give drawing Legoshi a shot. BEASTARS is rad.
