Currently traveling, so I decided to do some traditional pencil sketches.

These sketches are meant to be Sterjall from the Noss Saga! I think he explicitly loses his curly hair, but I like to think the headfluff is still curly, while the body hair is course.

A photo of a pencil sketch of an anthro Timberwolf. His expression is neutral/hard to read.

A photo of a pencil sketch of a timberwolf. His expression is hard, a single canine tooth exposed as he speaks.

A photo of a pencil sketch of a Timberwolf. The wolf is looking to the sky ("Star watcher...."), and a beam of light perfectly shines above his head (love how that happened by accident).

Did you know that big studios monitor piracy? Don't you fucking dare pirate this shit. Do not hate watch through piracy. JK Rowling is a disgusting human being that funds and encourages the hurt, pain and death of my fellow trans peers.

Support media that actually deserves our time and money.

For this #Caturday I donate a webcomic page! I experimented with color theory in the first panel and ran out of time to finish it, but I think this WIP still looks nice.

Working on creating my own cat walk cycle! No guides, only real life cat references... Just completely winging it.

I want to turn this into a YCH commission. I love animating so much, and character walk cycles are fun, so why not?!

I got home, saw 2 frames of an OCs running cycle, and randomly spent 4 hours making this. I don't know why, I just did.
I am... so tired... Worth it...
Who knows what random OCs I'll animate next!

I've been looking for cat models online to inspire more cat character designs. I'm notoriously awful at character design! So having real life models help.

This one caught my eye. The way she INSTANTLY started grooming her grandbabies fur...

WIP graphic novel pages. This will be a prequel to another series I'm working on. I'm excited! It's sketchy as heck right now since I'm focused on scripting first.

I made the font myself. What do you guys think? Is the font legible?

Webcomic image. The first panel shows a cat looking worried.
The second panel reveals a city-scape in the distance the cat is looking toward with the narration "Humans have become very sick. No one is sure what exactly is ailing them."
The third panel shows the cat turning away with a pained expression. The fourth panel shows the cat walking away, expression still pained. "But lately we've seen less and less humans over time. ...Likely for the best. We have learned to be wary of desperate humans."

The first panel is a close-up of a cats paws while walking. "In their search for a cure to their nightmare, Humans committed many atrocities. They carried out experiments. Plants. Themselves. ...Cats."
The bottom panel shows a wall of steel, barred animal cages, with the last panel being a close-up of one of the cats inside the cages. "My father was one of those cats. They call him Locke."

First panel showcases three sketch cats. The left is sitting, the middle is standing tall, the right is crouched low. "According to the stories, it was Locke that ended the nightmare. Locke and his generals."
Second panel is a sketch of a human with a cat leaping at the humans chest aggressively. "Together, they killed the last human scientist and freed everyone. He became a legend to my people..."

"Despite our years of freedom, we are still called Lab Cats to this day."
First panel shows a sketch cat with a tilted head, unreadable expression. Second panel features the cat looking down at a pile of rocks.
"Other cats cringe at our smell. They declare us sick and wrong. Father has still not forgiven them. But I differ from my father... I weep for the suffering humans. I forgive."
Bottom panels showcase a series of actions as the cat grabs one of the rocks, presses his claws to a larger rock, and smashes his claws off.
