Here's a rundown of Pyrexia, my taur & sphinx world: There are basic taurs based on moose & reindeer, seals, wolves, bears, corvids, and more unique aquatic taurs (known as ittarryx). But i wanted ONE of these taurs to be very evolutionarily weird, so I invented sphinxoids, cat taurs & multi-taurs who can shapeshift into specialized upright and quad forms, for socializing and hunting respectively. There's no magic involved, their shapeshifting is entirely biological in nature.

They're nomadic because they need to eat A TON OF FOOD in order to keep up the energy to be able to shapeshift. If packs stayed in one place, theyd quickly eat EVERYTHING in the area, thus they must keep moving. Packs are usually 50-100 individuals, and theyre adept at using local materials to set up temporary villages, and then take them down before moving on. I'm thinking of designing taur-friendly backpacks and wagons they carry stuff in. They leave behind art & stories carved in stones for others to find.

More details under the cut!

Other traits: -Their fur, especially the mane, is filled with an alien equivalent to chlorophyll, so in addition to large amounts of food, direct sunlight helps them maintain energy. Their fur has more of a smooth texture, and their manes can feel like soft pine needles, leaves, vines, or plant stems, and can grow flowers and edible berries in the warm season. -3 nostrils, very wide noses, and large lungs help with bloodflow & endurance. -Front-facing but wide-set eyes, so they can see other creatures coming in the open plains from very far away. -No whiskers, as they arent really necessary in the open environments of Pyrexia! Their faces are often oval, flat, or heart-shaped, and their muzzles are very wrinkled and bumpy where whiskers would be on a regular cat, which helps exaggerate facial expressions. -Dotted sensory organs along their foreheads that detect pressure changes in the atmosphere- effectively predicting weather changes which is incredibly important in the open plains in tornado season. -Thick, leathery paw pads with 6 fingers (except for the back feet, which have 5) are somewhat heat resistent, making treks across deserts more bearable. These large paws are also equipped for wading across the very shallow seas of Pyrexia.

I wanted to talk about "the premade issue", the issue I've been hearing a lot about recently: the furry fandom seems to be getting bored of canines (I'm bored of canines too unless they're a particularly unique breed!) and I've seen a lot of celebration towards unique species, BUT non-canine fursuits for sale will rarely sell at living wage prices.

And its true! The only suit I've sold that's been bought out at the full price was my monsterdog suit. So I'm just confused, there seems to be a lot of demand for unique species fursuits, but then they don't sell for months or sometimes even years!

A lot of fursuit makers see canines as "old reliable" when they need to make a lot of money quickly. I really don't want to have to do that! I don't enjoy making canines often. If I ever do, it'll be an odd breed or a hybrid with some other species. This is the #1 reason I am a premades-only maker and have declined requests for custom heads in the past- they have all been requests for canine-related work, and that's totally fine, I love dogs as much as the next guy! I just want to make other species ;w;

I know I'm fighting an uphill battle here, as I also prefer unnatural colors and complex designs, which aren't exactly the fastest sellers either. But I have a LOT of passion for what I make, and I hope the love I put into my suits will make up for the fact that they might not otherwise sell quickly

I'm still sitting on my porcelain mouse suit, but it's okay. I think the right person just needs to come along and see it. If it isn't sold by next year, I'll try getting a table at the art show at AC and selling it there!

Idk what Stan is saying but it’s probably some bullshit to get them both into a club or something

Baby is here! :D Welcome Isabella to the world!

Finally had the time to finish this. Took me a bit longer than I originally expected but eh. For me personally, I always felt like Soos and Melody would have a girl first. Don’t know why. Now I can get to drawing out those cute ideas I had in mind :3

[ryanishyperfixating]

As artists I think we all need to draw ourselves as this picture of Alex Hirsch.

It makes me giggle.

[marineflamez]

another gravity falls animation! :3 hope yall enjoy!

[anistarrose]

some new acquaintance of the Stans: so which one of you is the older twin?

Stan, immediately doing a dead-on impression of Ford: well, to answer that question, we first need to talk about Einstein’s theory of general relativity, which explains that time is subjective and therefore ultimately meaningless—

Ford: OH QUIT DOING THAT AND JUST ACCEPT THAT I’M FIFTEEN MINUTES OLDER THAN YOU, STANLEY

hey funny yellow guy give us your input on the recent events

Hahah

[newbiewithscissors]

wait what happened

[faranon]

The most moderate prominent right wing figure was shot and killed

[tired-stressed-trying-my-best]

Charlie Kirk was murdered in cold blood at the age of 31, leaving behind his wife and young children.

May he rest in peace, and may every person who celebrates this horrific act of political violence one day feel ashamed of their ghoulish actions and repent.

[pukicho]

For years I've seen a nonstop deluge of right wingers cracking jokes and cheering for the murders, suicides and oppression of vulnerable and marginalized groups. I've seen these same people laugh at the deaths of the other party. I've seen Charlie Kirk at every turn adamantly support the continued genocide of tens of thousands of fatherless children in Palestine. Not once do you express shame with going along with this rhetoric, a rhetoric that casually and willfully allows the continued slaughtering and induced hate crime of an innumerable number of people -- and yet you expect me to feel shame for being glad that the spewer of this vitriol is no more?

[chikuto]

So I rewatched Gravity Falls for the first time after going through a rough start this year, and I remembered a short comic I really wanted to do after the series ended. HERE’S THE, UM, PROLOGUE. I GUESS. 

It’s based on the premise that Stan doesn’t immediately remember everything after the end of the show, and the comic will deal with the consequnces of him remembering Bill some years later. I’d like to continue this - it’s pretty much just my own spin on “bill comes back”, because I’m a creature of self-indulgence and you’ll never take me alive, officer.

WE’LL SEE PLEASE LOOK FORWARD TO IT??

Also if you like this you can go read my original comic Clockwork okay i’ll stop

The way someone just asked me how I was doing while drawing storyboards and I without looking up answered "Terrible, I'm not drawing insane elderly men" and then I realised I'm talking to a researcher from 2 corridors away from my department, they have no idea what I'm talking about, someone end me.
