Don’t judge popular artists too hard for being protective of their ideas. When someone takes inspiration from their work, even if they’re going their own road with it, it’s still a weird feeling for the artist.
They might find it rewarding. They might feel walls closing in around them. It’s different for everyone.
1 - gives kibble to dogs in shelters with a single click
2 - gives 10 pieces of kibble to dogs in shelters, whether you get the question right or not
3 - gives 10 pieces of kibble to cats in shelters, whether you get the question right or not
4 - gives cat litter to cats in shelters with a single click
One of these things is not like the other

“Clock”
Object heads have always been cool to me. Thus this guy. As soon as I got him sketched out, I realized that this guys is like, my first official oc. I have made a whole slew of creatures, but never a personalized creature that would be fun to play around with. Names are usually a hard thing for me, but as soon as I saw him, his name was Hatchet.

“Drain”
HE’S NOT DOING DRUGS. He just had surgery and I guess cat-people have different vein placement than us, so the IV was put there and not in his hand. I didn’t quite get the pose correct, he’s supposed to be more slouched, but eh I still like it.

This piece (my baby) right here is my pride and joy of my 2016-2017 school year. She took about 50 hours trying to get the right shades for the fur and greens surrounding the bull, but I would do it again for the pay out. A lot of the reason why it probably took so long though is that the watercolors I was using were crappy, but I didn't want to switch out in the middle of it or risk inconsistencies through the piece in the watercolor texture. So I just made do and struggled with the watercolor paints that I had. I had to use some shades of acrylic paints in order to get the vibrant colors that I wanted, like greens and yellows, and some white for the fur, along with using india ink to get the darks I wanted. Most of it was done in watercolor though. Ah well, live and let learn yet again. This one was most definitely a learning experience.

“Precious”
Water’s precious right?? Not like a certain ring, but I value originality and that was probably done to death this year.

“Whale”
I’ve always thought that humpback whales are hella cool. Like look at their teeth?! They don’t got any. And they still fight Orcas to protect their young. Thus I based this off humpbacks, but with a few better offensive tools.

“Chicken”
At first I was like, what the hell am i gonna do for this days prompt. Then I remembered that chickens are pretty metal. My muse may or may not have been that video where a cat is hunting this mouse and then a chicken comes in and steals that mouse, killing it by thrashing it. I was sick and I love it.

NOW THIS GUY I AM PROUD OF. He took forever because I was constantly referencing my anatomy books to get him to feel just right. And right does he feel. Finished him in summer 2016 and I love all the small details I was able to pack in that just add to the stretched feel of his skin. His head was kinda hard though to get the right shapes and shadows.
Alrighty so quick update on life: I now have a real deal art table to work at!!! My parents saw it at a garage sale for only $10; a great price so of course they took the deal! Can't wait to get cranking on art work this summer. Just gotta let school end....and get myself a chair XD
