Just wanted to shout out my top 3 favourite animals

Number 3:

We got the ✨️ m o l e ✨️ (specifically golden mole)

Second place goes to:

The giant isopod! (though I love all isopods, these guys get extra points for having a cute mustache)

AND MY TOP FAVOURITE CURRENTLY ALIVE ANIMAL IS:

The leopard seal!!! (no wonder I have so many leopard seal ocs 🫠... and no one can stop me)

Special mention to my extinct favourites:

Plesiosaurus, Arthropleura, and Dodos

Going through my portfolio, one thing i love drawing and don't have nearly enough shareable examples of is animals, creatures and monsters. Gonna try and do a few portfolio pieces this fall to fill the gap - and i thought, maybe i could take some suggestions or requests!

so, what's a creature you'd like to see my take on? I'll make a poll but feel free to write in with your own favs:

more dragons

pegasus

unicorn

gryphon

merfolk

dinosaur (tell me which!)

kraken

sky whale

bird but giant (tell me which!)

pleistocene megafauna (tell me which!)

your burgess shale blorbo (specify pls)

other awesome creature you'll put in the tags or replies

Voting ended onJul 14, 2025

I'll do my best to get to a few of these in the sketchbook asap! and then see what i can take further to a full piece from there.

That's what you get when Daddy is a brown bear and Mommy is a polar bear and I could not be more in love.
