Demihuman Girls Hangout - Sheena and Enra
Enra is more than happy to match Sheena's energy for their get-together, taking a movie night in over the evening of bar hopping they had originally planned. (Enra's in her full pig form here because she'd rather use her hooved fingertips to safely shake up her stovetop popcorn bowl without needing to fetch her oven mitts!)
Demihuman Girls Hangout - Sheena and Meryl
Sheena frets over asking favors of her closest friends, such as asking Meryl to help tailor a dress for her to wear to an important fundraising gala. Yet Meryl simply sees her request as an opportunity to spend time with her, and to make her something special that only she can. If there's one thing Meryl has learned in her work, it's that her clothing gives people confidence. <3
Cat Mode In Progress
A rare glimpse of Amber mid-transformation! She's used to shifting forms very quickly for convenience, but in relaxed situations where she has the time and privacy to let her form wander more casually, each body part shifts only as she has reason to draw her attention to it. A mostly-human hand to better turn pages, while her other arm is mostly fur and paw to keep her warm and covered. The smell of curry drawing out her lynx nose, curious to know how many ingredients are left to add before dinner is ready. It can sometimes take Amber until she looks in the mirror to realize she needs to settle her form back to her desired, cohesive appearance.
@bonkalore commissioned me to draw some Pietro and Bobby from their Giant Pietro AU! (Highly recommended you check it out, BTW c:) Bobby's not worried about being held up so high, he's just chillin'~
Today Amber Shares: "Beautiful Mixed Media Animation With a Cute Cat"
There's something truly magical about finding a short film where you can clearly tell just how much of it was made by hand. Paper textures, collage backgrounds, painted effects added directly on top of printed film footage... Even the parts done with digital assistance are refined in such a way to make them match their handmade assets, which is one of my favorite things to see in art. In only a couple of minutes, I was captivated by this cat's dreamy little adventure, and left appreciating all the love and detail poured into it, and wanting to see more of this creator's work, especially since she's starting a monthly challenge to make more short mixed media films like this!
The creator, Ameya's Realm, actually posted up a video today talking about the process of making this film, which reminded me to share the original, and I would highly recommend watching this video as well!
Allow Me To Demonstrate...
Gecqua's big gecko noggin is perfectly shaped for smooches!!
one of the biggest things I can advocate for (in academia, but also just in life) is to build credibility with yourself. It’s easy to fall into the habit of thinking of yourself as someone who does things last minute or who struggles to start tasks. people will tell you that you just need to build different habits, but I know for me at least the idea of ‘habit’ is sort of abstract and dehumanizing. Credibility is more like ‘I’ve done this before, so I know I can do it, and more importantly I trust myself to do it’. you set an assignment goal for the day and you meet it, and then you feel stronger setting one the next day. You establish a relationship with yourself that’s built on confidence and trust. That in turn starts to erode the barrier of insecurity and perfectionism and makes it easier to start and finish tasks. reframing the narrative as a process of building credibility makes it easier to celebrate each step and recognize how strong your relationship with yourself can become
(Vent Comic) What You Want
I drew a messy little something, just for me. I've been sifting through a lot of thoughts recently, about me as an artist, and me as a person, and just how long I've been making things so much harder for myself than they need to be.
I actually started writing these thoughts out as far back as 2023, but only decided to commit to making it into an actual comic a couple of weeks ago, after coming out of a particularly frustrating emotional crash.
I get squeamish about sharing my thoughts and feelings, especially if they're not wholly positive, but I think that's exactly why I was compelled to make this, and more importantly, let other people see me make something like this.
Demihuman Girls Hangout - Sheena and Amber
Sheena and Amber recharge their social batteries together, taking advantage of their snowcat forms to stay cozy for an evening of winter stargazing. ❄️💗 (I was originally going to draw them both in a version of their demihuman forms with humanoid faces and full fur up to their necks, but it made more sense that they would be more comfortable just relaxing in their full anthro forms in the cold like this. More involved partial transformations require more passive concentration to maintain, and these girls are out here to relax~)
I've been on a streak with playing around with a new approach to lineless art, and I swear, I can feel my art brain being rewired in the process... There's something about blocking out colours and shadows specifically like this that's hitting SO right for me right now! 💗💚
Demihuman Girls Hangout - Meryl and Enra
Meryl and Enra, the two most extroverted girls, dress up for a fun night of dancing and socializing together! (Also man I REALLY need to get a template file together for Enra's tattoo sleeves so I don't have to keep avoiding detailing her arms in deliberately simple sketches like these, lol)
I've always been an X-Men: Evolution truther since I was a wee bab and it first came out, but we rewatched it again recently and I suddenly caught the BRainrot and I wanted to draw my favs <3
btw while people continue to fight the system don't forget about Undue Medical Debt (formerly RIP Medical Debt), a charity that buys and forgives medical debt. on average a donation of $10 will forgive $1,000 of medical debt.
I'm fairly confident that this is now the one original post I've made that has gotten the most notes, and I honestly couldn't be happier. the more attention we give this, the higher the chances that someone will see this and donate. medical debt is both one of the most crushing things a person can deal with and one of the stupidest things humanity has invented. and if you live in the US, I have no doubt that you've had to deal with medical debt in your life, either for yourself or a loved one. even a small donation can do so much good, and now is the time of year when we are encouraged to think of others.
pre-calamity naps! I couldn't help myself but i think with that the sleepy zora piles are officially out of my system and i can go draw something else woo
Demihuman Girls Hangout - Amber and Enra
Amber and Enra rent out a karaoke room and bond over belting out tunes together~ (I'm starting a little sketch series to show off the personalities of my demihuman galpals! I draw them individually plenty, but I've never really shared what they're like as an actual friend group. So I'm making it a little project for myself to draw what the girls might get up to when paired off in various ways. c: )
The Cursed Fairy Spring
Link discovers a mysterious pond in the Pyramid of Power...
And at last, it is DONE! What started as an unused Zelda zine illustration prompt transformed into a full rewrite of the Cursed Fairy encounter from "A Link to the Past". I was enamored with the idea of designing a Dark World version of a Great Fairy, with ample BOTW inspiration, and once I started thinking about what personality she might have and how she'd treat Link, it was easy to get carried away. While it took me a lot longer to pull this together than I initially planned, it was still a great reintroduction to making comics for myself, and it felt really good to give myself the chance to make some Zelda fanart that wasn't another painting. <3 I also want to give a huge thank you to my loyal Ko-fi members for helping support the creation of this comic~
