Fun little history about me for anyone curious. I spent years drawing for a now defunct petsite. It was a massive part of my development as an artist. I finally went and found some of the old art I made. These are only the good ones. I did way more than this and it was teeeeerrible.
I have a lot of mixed feelings about this art. I'm proud of how much I made, but I'm sad to see it all go to waste in the internet graveyard. There are so many memories attached to this art. I have loved petsites since the days of neopets and I will continue to love them.
Every time I draw a horse it's like I've never seen a horse in my life and I have to relearn horse legs all over again. These aren't really horses though, I didn't realize how goatlike they were until I zoomed in on the originals, which are very small.
They're Stellaricorns, from 4dopt, which is a great petsite I wish I could recommend right now BUT registration is closed at the moment. I'll try to remember to say something about it when they open back up, they're working on recoding the site right now. When they're open again they're really worth checking out!
did a little edit/re-design of my take on the cotton candy skies bp design while practicing with some clip studio brushes to keep me sane while my health has been too unstable to function properly for fun~ yay~ been really inspired by visiting old pet sites lately since theyre so low energy for when im recovering or having a bad symptoms day & i really miss em a lot. i still play neopets occasionally & varwolves have still been so super fun to play around with ><;
anyways... sources & assets linked below the cut + some more rambling :3

would love to hear yalls opinions on theses new body paints as well if you'd like to share your thoughts. i think theyre kinda like imitation paint brushes tbh but i dont totally hate the idea of them either so idk how im feeling about them yet. just wishing there were more NP drops for poor artists like me who cant afford neocash lol
also i have not recovered from santae breaking my damn heart earlier this year so ive been recently getting back into chicken smoothie & have been trying out pixel cats end as well (my brainfog is usually too bad to understand that one but i just like getting new cats from nester haha)
I've been working on lots of things behind the scenes 💙 writing down my ideas into a wiki site of sorts that I'll be sharing with you all shortly. It'll give you a better idea of how the game works along with some feature previews! I've also developed a roadmap for the what I'd like to include in the game so that will be coming soon too. But I also want to share the first look at Bestial adventurers the Direborn! More on their backstory later here is the starter set design for this canine race skilled in hunting:
And along with this new base we have a new NPC! A skilled hunter and efficient butcher meet first design for Ralph 💚:
I forgot I had a bunch more Pixel Cat's End art that I never uploaded! Here's Flutter, profilic adventurer and ever the charmer. I'm MyopicDinobird over there!
