Here's my sona's ref and some art examples!

I think we can all agree that it's rather inspiring that a wild raccoon with a shortened spine syndrome is agile and thriving out there somewhere.

The study VS the view

Made with water colour paints and acrylic markers

favorite medium? like to make art not to predict the future or smth

unless you have a favorite one of those too?

Digital art in Paint Tool Sai is always my go-to... but for traditional mediums? I'd say acrylic markers and water colour are my favourites! Especially when used together!

Also my favourite MEDIUM medium is Nadine Mercey from this Jenny Nicholson video just because she made me giggle in the ghost hunting show and I love Jenny's videos

I love the soft highlights you pull off with watercolor! Do you work with pan paints or tube, and do you find much of a difference between the two?

I use these! I bought them for cheap, since I'm still figuring out the medium! I honestly didn't even know tube water colour were a thing, but I'm certainly stoked to try them someday :oP

On your art fight picture how did you get the colored pencils so smooth like that?

I used these pencils!

I still had them laying around from when it was mandatory to use them in art school. Compared to coloured pencils I can buy for cheap at any store, these put down a lot of pigment with minimal pressure! So it's very easy to gradually layer them and make the piece more and more vibrant bit by bit! So the gradients were done layer by layer in the same way.

I believe the reason they work so well is because they're called soft coloured pencils. These from Staedtler were a bit expensive (online I'm seeing 16 to 40+ euros) but perhaps there are other brands with more affordable prices online/in other countries!

It'd definitely be worth the purchase, even when used sparingly. I don't do a lot of coloured pencil works anymore but after a decade they're still as good as the day I bought them!

Still need to update info, profiles and mayyy hide/unhide a couple of characters :oP

If you have/know of any werecreature or tanuki characters, feel free to send them my way! Been really on a kick for those lately!

will be redesigning Shun and James slightly. Miiight still tinker with James, but I just wanted to share my sketching process before I go to work :o)

Babirusa boar tusks growing into their head and killing them but instead with bra wires breaking out of the fabric and into your boob.

Is this anything

[donutdrawsthings]

If I had the opportunity to concept a redesign for Spyro, I would have him be a tiny, round thing with big bat wings 😈

And Sparx a dark yet glowing shadow, kind of like Issun from Okami.

[donutdrawsthings]

I call this one "my job is taken by AI so now I'm making art on a cash register"

Dreary commentary aside, Vincent van Gogh will forever be one of my favourite artists.

Turned the Spyro drawing I did into free-to-use profile pics!

credit to @donutdrawsthings appreciated, but not needed! Please enjoy :o)

Cynder is kind of like the Harley Quinn of the Spyro franchise to me. She was created to be an established character's duo for a specific story, but everyone loved her so much that every story without her feels like it's missing half of the world
