As well as links, I have tags for the extra stuff I post, like WIPS or discussions. ⚠️ From my previous handle (thmagicalblog), these tags follow this old system that I will continue to use.

#magical designs - my processes to create new things!

#misc magical - drabbles, doodles, and the like

#magical draws - uncategorised drawings and nice finished pieces ✨

#magical writes - rare snippets of actual writing from me

#magical discusses - posts of (mostly) text where I discuss the rules of my world or solve a problem

#magical wips - my works in progress / unfinished works

#magical reblogs - It's rare I'd reblog something here, but when I do it's tagged with this

Got in the mood to draw this album cover with my fab 4 again, they're so cuteee

Comparing it to the old one is making me giddy loook look at the change

The evolution of style and colouring is so awesome. And Coyote(🤠) went from keeping to his own dang personal space to giving Alder a reason to pull that face lol

Polecat and Rose on either end kept the same vibe more or less. Except P is major cutie now and R greater resembles her true old lady self.

To see yourself... so glowing 🏳️‍⚧️

I don't see the point in a context paragraph for this,, something something- yeah congrats on realising your identity but you already transitioned and lived a whole vibrant life don't you remember.

Lyrics are from Glowing by The Oh Hellos

Work on my actual characters? Do worldbuilding? Nonsense! More pretty colours and designs that are irrelevant to the plot! More please waiter!

I have things to say about these folks!! See solo images and my rambles under the cut

its got some pretty tasty details and cute babies

There was no one else in sight, just the endless frozen pines

This canvas was created August 2025.. (☍ v ⁰) but uh it's done now.

Common colour and pattern variations for the Leatherwings! As well as an official colour reference.

Due to the Leatherwings' society structure of smaller, more isolated villages its common for new adults to leave their hometown and find a partner in a new place. This means genetics spread further and these 'variations' get blended together.

TLDR: A leatherwing may have any combination of these traits, though some might be more prominent in certain family lines.
