i always wanted to do a piece with shiny eye glow ‘cause i like the effect so i did it! this was originally just a random sketch i did, but i liked the idea/pose of the face i did so i worked on it more. It ended up being fur practice x.x my favorite part is the nose lol

more background practice. just working on getting ideas down and getting used to doing backgrounds so it’s kinda sketchy, but i enjoy the feel of it. C:

was originally going for a more concept art-y thing to flesh out my character “masked” but i really wanted to have a go at a background so this is a sorta in between of an illustration and a concept piece? 

also i miss archery haha

was originally for inktober but i fell behind but i had a sketch done already so i wanted to finish it. i think i left the idea out for too long and lost track of my original vision for it 

was thinking of greek statues and dogs with fancy collars. i always think of dobermans as very regal breeds idk why lol

I remember being absolutely terrified first time watching Princess Mononoke when i was like 6 or something ‘cause seeing worms devour a giant boar lol. But this move had a lot of influence on how i respect nature and whatnot. C:

Based on the native american legend of the coyote that stole fire for humans. I remember having a book of this legend when I was younger but idk where it went and I dont remember much of it other than enjoying the illustrations. C:

i feel like a lot of times i try to rely on color because i feel like my linework can’t stand on it’s own

definitely need to work on bird anatomy

color effects were added digitally except the eyes

wanted to see if i could apply negative space to imply snow

i love the pattern for king cheetahs C: color was added digitally

i’m proud of the linework in this. i added the little bit of color digitally but other than that it’s all done with micron pens and a pentel brush pen

an idea based on my deity creature thing named “Masked” lol
