Dust sketch in the car so it's a tad wonky lol. This is the alt design I made for my fan story.

the blue fox in jeff vandermeer's dead astronauts is one of those images that only works in writing. a fox that is actually blue, like photoshopped blue, doesn't actually look that cool, because the visual essence of a fox is its fiery orange.

in writing, though, "the blue fox" works great, because you get the concept of "blue" sort of abstracted and tied to this second symbol, "fox" which lets the fox retain all of its fiery orange characteristics, with the blue floating beside it as a pure pigment/motif/symbol. at least that's how it works for me! it's analogous to (and/or dependant on) synaesthesia, where you get colour associations sort of floating over the words. -> writing has the unique ability to provoke layers of loosely associated visuals, not necessarily all coherently fit into the single thing being described, but flitted between at will, new words superseding the old ones. but yeah for the blue fox it works especially well because it's an oxymoron, blue contradicting fox, every time you read it. so i think paradoxes are especially powerful in writing, where your mind is repeatedly tricked into fulfilling something impossible by maintaining both states at once. whereas a film etc. loses what is paradoxical by condensing the two things into one and losing any distinctive contradictory features.

here is a visual representation:

2025 Above So, this is a redraw of Krystal in a summer dress I feel my art hasn't improved much as I like, besides my art being more stylized and wanting my art to be more vibrant. Besides, I still adore my older works as well. 2024 Below

This is from last year, I still adore this version very much I've posted this one on my FA, however I took down everything on there as I plan on getting better for now before posting on there again. I had to get my older works from my files/or download them before deleting them.
