Hi! I’m Alex. I do art! I specialize in furries, animals, and sometimes fan art.

COMMISSION INFO

Art Tag 🩸 Navigation

I’m currently focused on learning new techniques, experimenting with different styles, and enjoying art! Any commission openings, adoptables, and base sales will be posted here. You may see a few WIPs as well!

I would appreciate if my art wasn’t reposted to other social media or art sites; I crosspost to a bunch of places so you can use native sharing functions! Please credit me at ErithacusCreations if uploading my art of your character on Toyhouse!

I have a Telegram channel! I post finished art and WIPs there, as well as using it to notify followers about commission openings, new adopts, and new bases.

Hello! Long time, no update.

I'm still alive (for better or worse) and I'm opening commissions! All relevant information should be in the images~ (I don't think I need to copy all the text into the description here, but please let me know if readability is difficult or you have other questions)

These listings (and others) are available on my VGen!

A little late on the upload, but I actually did more art than I thought I did last year! ^^;

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.

The Exotic Animal Photo Reference Repository is live!

You can find it at: https://www.animal-photo-references.com!

Here's how this repository works: all photos were taken by me, a human, at zoos, aquariums, sanctuaries, and other facilities with animals in human care. There is no AI involved in the photo editing or creation and there never will be. Right now there's 56 species on the site; my catalog has over 300 and I will be uploading the rest of them as fast as I can.

Artists creating derivative or transformative works (without AI) have blanket permission to use these references. Yes, even for work you're going to sell.

All other usage/reproduction requires permission, but assume I'm friendly and please do ask! That's educators, researchers, the media, people who need images for a school presentation, etc. This is just to retain copyright/control in case they're scraped/reused unethically - it doesn't meant I don't want folk to have access! So please do reach out via the contact form on the repository website, I don't bite and I'm most likely going to say yes.

Please don't repost the repository photos to your own blogs: I've created @animalphotorefs as a dedicated blog to share photos from the site, and of course I'll reblog a lot of it here! That again just helps with retaining copyright and sourcing of the images. If you really want to repost some for a specific purpose, please just ask me first!

Also, folks, this project has no funding. It's just me and my camera.

There will never be a paywall on the site - I believe resources like this absolutely must be free for everyone to access. So please, please, please support the repository if you use it. Want sneak peeks at photos, cute videos I take, or to help choose what I photograph and what gets posted first? You can do that through Patreon (and there's a free trial on the most interactive tier!) If you'd like to just drop a tip, I've also set up a Ko-Fi.

I can't wait to hear what everyone thinks of the repository.

To whet your thirst for cute photos, here's an Indian rhinoceros contemplating a goose.

It's a height comparison website btw

You can actually add your own images into it if you want to compare more dynamic characters or use alternate poses. And I’ll show you how owo

1. You go on the site:

2. Left click the image and scroll down to inspect:

3. You see those two links down there? Those are the image links for the sillouhettes, just add your own image (must be a url, i personally like imgur):

4. And bingo bango! You got your own custom images to compare heights with! I hope this was helpful owo

I'm so upset that I didn't get to draw as much as I wanted this year, but hopefully I can find more time to work on stuff in 2025. Happy new year!
