Siren design, tried making it look all muscly and visceral.

Some kobold designs I drew for @featheredbeardog ages ago but kept forgetting to post! They live in the same setting/story as the Heart of Penumbra dragons, which I also designed.

Despite their adorable appearance and tiny size, kobolds are a kind of "people" just like dragons are. Before the rise of intelligent species, kobolds and dragons were symbiotic animals, and as sapients their ways of life remain entwined. Since kobolds are small and often do fiddly work that is hard for big dragon claws, outsiders sometimes mistake them for pets or minions, but this is not the way dragons see kobolds or vice versa. They together for the same reasons crows and wolves work together: the alliance between species is intuitive, comfortable, and mutually beneficial.

(...Generally speaking, anyway. A dragon might be a jackass to the kobolds he lives with, but this would be a personality problem rather than a societal/culturally ingrained one.)

AME-1113 aka "Confoozled" concept art COMPLETE!!!

I finally have a rough outline of my fursona's true form that I'm happy with! Now I just need to redesign my fursona's not-extradimensional-freak form (the one on my profile pic).

AME stands for Artificially Manifested Entity (what the scientists hoped they were doing... they accidentally yoinked a guy from another plane instead), a project in which researchers were trying to manifest objects and animals from thought energy. Lore inspired by Kane Pixel's "Backrooms" and the other internet horror series "Greylock"!

Still thinking about that mons game idea thing! Part of the core premise is that all the monsters are pretty small (compared to a human, anyway) with relatively streamlined designs, which would make it fun to come up with a bunch of them.

This one is Zubbelbub, the poison fly!

I added the wavy red bg in Online Image Editor!

Unglittered version under cut:

Monster/creature thing I saw in a dream I had a few nights ago

Also wanna add more context; this thing was FAST. It could easily swallow up a grown adult human and absorb/digest them in like ten-ish seconds. The way it appeared was human enough to fool you for a moment, til you did a double take n realised that thing was NOT human

It always shambled around with its mouth closed but when it came time to capture its prey it was a quick snap open, pull in the prey, then clamp the mouth shut again. It was like,, a really graphic dream 🤔
