#blitzfire

The dragon species I drew were the Acidstrike, Blitzfire, Cavernous Rockslider, and Golden Beetle. Blitzfire was originally called Spinfire, Cavernous was Shaded, and Beetle was Wings. I did my best to reinvent them and make the dragons look like they could be actual creatures with proper anatomy.

Zenith (the purple cat creature) was from the same universe as the dragons, but they were a race of colorful magical cats. I used to call the species "Furries" with an -ie because I was too lazy to come up with a unique name.

Rex (the red fox) was from a world of various magical animals, mostly foxes and seals. He was the leader of some kind of evil organization. All the members were red and had skull iconography.

Rogue (calico kitten) was actually made as a one-off Black Butler OC for a friend's Gacha Life comic, and was Sapph's daughter (this was back when Sapph wasn't my sona and just an OC). From there I added her to Sapph's story officially, before making Rogue and a few other kitten characters into a group called "The Naughty Kittens." Despite the unoriginal name, they were pretty fun to draw. Maybe I'll remake it some day.

Willow (black and white cat with neon) I don't entirely remember the story for. She was one of a bunch of fusion animal OCs, and I ended up repurposing design elements for a completely different character, before scrapping it altogether.

And lastly, the fox girl. I don't remember her name. It's probably in one of the other sketchbooks, I'm pretty sure it was something like 'Alex?' She was designed by an old friend of mine back in 5th grade. We grew apart over the years and lost touch, only occasionally hearing of them from mutual friends. Sadly, they passed away last year, supposedly from an overdose. They were a very talented artist, and I dedicate this final redraw to them.

I had a lot of fun with these drawings, and getting better at practicing shading and color balancing on paper. I definitely want to more of these in the future!
