Some #sketches in #gouache
Really enjoy painting faces as exercise and trying out new art supplies....
Also has the added bonus of having some new npc art

Kingdieb in molt in a suprise snowstorm, in a field near Osnabrück

These are some of the biggest carnivores on the island of Fern. They store fat in their tails and are often molting in autumn.

Painted the #sketch I did before! What a little thief!!
Painted in #gouache and #aquarell pencils. I love the thought of having these tiny dudes run in herds of 20-30 animals through a park an trashing everyones picnic on a hot summer day.

A tiny arboreal ceratopsian, with a thick coat of feathers to thrive in the sometimes harsh enviroment on Fern.
I added a digital sketch, turned out quite close to it!

Oh maybe I should also post the #map of my #worldbuilding project! It's an island in the northsea, filled with weird and unique creatures!
This is probably not the most realistic map, it was made in a day so please dont judge it to harshly!

Long-legged shrew, hunting for insects and tadpoles. Mostly found on Fern, they have been seen on the Coast of Germany and Denmark, mostly sticking to rivers and other freshwater sources. #specevo #specbio #sciart #illustration #worldbuilding #digitalart #artist #art

The Woolfish, also known as a Thread Herring, is the final stage of a Herring that got infested with the Sailor's Yarn Fungus. This seems to be a symbiotic behavior for both organisms, but further studies are needed.
