A new viewpoint on antlers reveals the evolutionary history of deer (Cervidae, Mammalia)

fullview recommended!

something i've wanted to do for a while now. i've scoured the internet for something like this and can't find anything that compares all the different types of antlers together. except one recent study on their evolution, which is also very interesting on its own! i simplified it to provide a visual reference, while still trying to be scientifically accurate. some things differ between this and trophy scoring terminology like where the beam is and whatnot, so if something looks weird that's why.

small additional note, this study and others provide a lot of evidence that eld's deer should be in their own genus as it doesn't appear similar enough to barasingha and schomburgk's deer. however this doesn't seem to be adapted anywhere yet, so they're still in Rucervus for this guide.

Three cool looking species of raptors:

The Harpy Eagle, the Bateleur Eagle and the Bearded Vulture 🦅

Those are some cool looking birds if i say so myself.

hey! im sorry if this has been asked before but i couldnt find it when i was looking, what program do you use to animate?

A lot of my stuff was in in adobe animate when it was still named adobe flash but now i orient towards other programs and just try whatever seems cool,,,, This roblox pressure doodle for example was made in blender! You dont have to set it up all by yourself for 2d animation because it already has a preset

You can add also noise so it looks like every frame is redrawn

i really enjoy drawing, especially making fanart, but my number one struggle has always been drawing eyes. i adore the way you draw them, so would you mind showing how you do it?

This one I find harder to answer because I tend to be pretty inconsistent when it comes to eyes and I loooove drawing them massively bigger than they probably ought to be.

I guess my main process is to think of the eye as a sphere (so the normal way really lol) and try to extrapolate expressions and variations out from that, keeping in mind that the pupil moves around a sphere, not a flat surface.
