Hello!! Your furry, opossum, dog, batjokes are so cuteeee.
I was wondering how you started on them (for them to be opossum and dog) and if you have a favourite piece?
I love when you do them kinda chibi-ish. Anyways photo below is how I am when I view your art.
Have a good day!! (Excuse me mass reblogging your posts haha)
Thank you so much for loving my art! It really means a lot to me and keeps me going (´艸`)
Actually, the story behind how I got the idea to create Opossum Joker and Batdog is a little complicated. First, I’ve always wanted to draw furry characters because I just adore animals. However, I didn’t have the confidence to draw them because I was worried I couldn't make them cute enough.
During the year I became obsessed with Batjokes, I had the chance to visit a very nice lady's home and play with her rescued cat. He was so cute! While playing with him, I suddenly made up my mind to create a furry version of the Joker. I started researching what kind of animal would suit him best. I've seen some talented artists draw him as a cat, a hyena, a dog, or a raccoon... but I wanted to create something different. At the same time, I wanted the animal to be common—not something so obscure that only a few people would recognize it.
Then, I came across pictures of opossums on the internet. I know how common opossums are to Americans, and I thought it would be perfect to use an American animal since the Joker is American, lol! Plus, the opossum's pointy white face, their immunity to poison, their creepy vibe... it was just perfect.
Also, the idea for his furballs actually came from that cute cat! Before playing with him, I never knew cats had such cute balls—so I decided Opossum Joker absolutely must have those, too!
Batdog was a total no-brainer. My favorite animal is a dog, so he had to be a cute dog!
As for my favorite piece? I don't have one yet—it’s always the next one.
