Recently had the pleasure of illustrating the hardback cover of Illumicrate's edition of Blood Bound by Ellis Hunter! I don't get a ton of commissions for animal-only covers so this was a real treat for me. Big thank you to Illumicrate for trusting me with this.

Pet portrait I had the pleasure of working on for a patron :)

dont trace reference images. dont even LOOK at reference images. in fact, don't ever look at anything that exists in the world, in person or in photos or in videos, even when you're not drawing, because you will still be able to use the memories of what something looks like as a reference when you're drawing it later. yes that includes yourself. destroy all the mirrors in your house. don't look down at your hands or feet. don't look. close your eyes. close them tight. forget everything. it's okay, embrace the darkness. just forget.

I’m sorry to brown, orange, dark green, and other nuance colors, I ran out of answer slots, I was trying to think of the heavy hitters, but you are still so cool and valid.

Edit: Favorite barding or “other” color options can also go into the comments if you want to answer, I only said tags because I forgot tumblr posts have comment sections alsjdladbdk

Thank you for all the responses so far! I’m loving all the chocobo info <3

You know I just checked your posts, if your busy then forget I asked anything ✌️🏽

Thanks for the request, but yeah, unfortunately I don't have the time right now, sorry :(

If you're open to warrior cats design requests, could I please have Jay (Yellowfang's Secret/Tallstar's Revenge)? Thanks!

I appreciate the ask, but unfortunately I don’t think this is a service I can fit on my plate right now, sorry :(

I've wanted to draw Scourge for forever but I always had a really hard time getting him to look right! He's had so many iconic looks over the years thanks to the fandom so he was a little daunting, but fun.
