"Friend kea!"

Meanwhile, a conservation sign tells tourists the real story:

I particularly love the part that emphasises that if they nick your stuff that's squarely your fault for letting them. Wikipedia (where I found these pictures) draws a clear line between human and kea behaviour:

"Kea parrots have strong cognitive abilities. According to recent studies, kea have a sense of impulse control and forward planning. Kea can wait up to 160 seconds for a more preferred reward. In addition, kea also use trial-and-error tactics and use observational learning to solve difficult problems and when faced with puzzles and locks. These decision-making abilities are similar to primates and other intelligent bird species such as the African grey parrot."

I wanted full turnaround references for all of Catra's main looks, so I compiled them! Left image colored, right image transparent lines only. Links below will bring you to the official sheets I used as bases

Row 1 is traced from Jisoo Kim's official S1 reference sheet for angles 1, 4, and the expressions (missing angles are based off row 2). Adora/scale guidelines are based on row 2

Row 2 is traced from Ray Geiger's official full turnaround sheet for S4. Only the second angle was colored on the original sheet, so I filled in color for all the other angles (and removed it for the transparent sheet). Guidelines were traced from the official sheet as well.

Row 3 is based on that S4 sheet and edited to match her S5 look based off of screenshots. The new hair for the first two angles is taken from Ray Geiger's S5 new design exploration sheets.

Row 4 has three designs copy-pasted from those exploration sheets (chipped, partial underwear look, and short hair + mask look), and then the two "naked" designs are once again traced from the exploration sheets (with clothes removed for the head-on angle).

Hope these are helpful!

In Ray's original S4 reference sheet, her stripes and blush were represented with just blue outlines (like her head beneath her hair). I wanted to keep their placement on the transparent sheet, so I had them colored in on the transparent sheet originally, but when I was fixing the eye I decided to change it to just the outline of the blush and stripes so their placement is still clear but there aren't big blocks of color on the transparent sheet and it's a little closer to the one official sheet we have for lines

[a brief internet search later] Ahh yes, ok I understand. Jimothy is my religion now.

It took less than 5 minutes to switch to a ProtonMail account, less than 2 hours to download and/or offload every byte of data from my Google account, and less than 3 days to change every single account or service I've ever signed up for to the new address.

As of today, the only single one I have that's still tied to it is YouTube. It's the only thing I'd lose access to if I deleted my Google acount entirely.

They really, really want you to believe that it's a hassle to switch to a different email system. But it's not. Most websites and/or services allow you to change the email address associated with it.

You can and should switch to a free, encrypted Proton email account. You also get all of the below perks. For free. There is no trick. It is paid for by the people with paying plans. I am one of them. The (completely functional) free tier is there to entice you into getting a paid account with even more perks. (It worked on me.) But there's no penalty or pressure for staying with the free account.

Also get your stuff off the google drive and put it on Proton's drive. It is encrypted. Only you with your password can access it. Not even Proton can see what you put in there.
