May The Snows Lick Your Skin

Judge, Jury, and Executioner Current Book: Shivering Seeds

Welcome to The Trial, may the odds by in your favor.

This blog is run by the same person who does Scorched Paths so if you see any similarities in the writing, characters, or worldbuiling, that’s why. I’m allowed to copy myself.

Warning: this rewrite contains dark themes, proceed with caution.

This work is inspired by warriors, Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Lion King as well as other creators such as @bonefall, @troutfur, and @cats-of-eden-valley.

Can you do a tutorial on paws and faces? Those two things specifically I really life with you art style, and I'm struggling to understand how to draw both things myself so it would be nice to see :)

Hello!! Sorry for the lack of posts for ages, been meaning to get back into designing. In the meantime here's a small tutorial for paws! I hope it isn't too complex or confusing, I've never made one of these before 👀💦 Anyone is welcome to trace these drawings if it'll help them better their own technique HOWEVER you must give credit if you plan on posting or sharing it anywhere! Thanks :D (As for cat faces I'll try my best to make a tutorial for those too! Please lmk if any of yall have any tips/constructive critique on how I can make these tutorials easier to follow, less complex etc. :])

i used to think when people said my cousin twice removed that their cousin must’ve did some fucked up shit to get kicked out of the family twice

When I found this the first thing I thought was “now I can find out how Count Olaf is related to the Baudelaire children.”

Do sharks cuddle?

THEY SURE FUCKIN DO.

many sharks are at least moderately social, and if a specific species of shark has the ability to breathe without actually swimming and tends to have a lot of sharks in a fairly small area, well.

they are just going to Pile. and there is simply nothing you can do about it.

How to show emotions

Part III

How to show disappointment

swallowing hard

low, monotone voice

clucking their tongue

rubbing their face

shaking head

clenching hands

sighing

frowning

pursing of the lips

slumped shoulders

looking away

scowling

How to show relief

exhaling deeply

tension in their face going away

closing eyes for a moment

tentative smile

eyes brightening up

small giddy laughter

putting hand on their breast

joyfully tearing up

looking up

How to show desire

gaze dropping down to the other's lips

opening mouth slightly

small smile around the eyes

eyes widening

pupils dilating

biting lips

following them with their eyes

inhaling deeply

licking lips

How to show tiredness

closing eyes

slowly opening them again

long sighs

yawning

no eye contact

head lolling to the side

closed mouth, neither smile nor scowl

not moving a lot

doing everything slower

staring off into the near distance

How to show confidence

prolonged eye contact

nodding to show they are listening

putting their shoulders back

holding head high

leaning forward

standing tall

smiling openly

Part I | Part II

This extra-small hyena cub was up and about first thing in the morning, while its litter mates slept in the den below. Hyena cubs have very dark fur at birth, and develop their distinctive spots or stripes (depending on the species) as they grow.
