#4: Avatar(s) Of The Stranger! Breekon & Hope

im sorry kiddos but i am really having trouble with focussing on anything other than Breonna Taylors lack of Justice.

when i tell you that i see my mother in this woman... i can't explain how real that is.

let's recap okay?

she has passive relationship with suspicious person.

cops already have suspicious person in custody.

her home was considered a soft target. that means little to no threat.

judge issues not one not two but FIVE no knock warrants.

yes i said five.

cops bust into this womans home.

she and her boyfriend were sleeping.

her boyfriend fires a shot. you know, as law abiding citizens have the right to do when someone breaks into their home.

Ms. Taylor was shot eight times.

Ms. Taylor was shot eight times.

Ms. Taylor was shot eight times

by cops who invaded her home

she died on the floor of her own home

they did nothing to try and help her.

they watched her die.

no Justice whatsoever

it's been 5 months.

somehow they've managed to make this one of those technicality on technicality type things.

im exhausted.

I’m a horrible dancer, I ain’t gonna lie but I’ll be damned if that means that I ain’t gonna try ♪♫

Listen, I have seen many a posts to the tune of "Hozier is a fae god!" Or "Florence is a fae god!" And I am here to tell you that neither of them are fae gods. Paramours, probably, maybe members of an Entourage, but gods? No.

You want to know who an actual fucking fae god is???

Kendrick Lamar.

The pettiness. The creativity. The persuasiveness. The accuracy. He had 110 million people across the nation today singing "a minooooor" like it was fucking nothing. This man has cast a thousand-year curse on Aubrey Graham's bloodline that cannot be undone through mortal means.

Now, THAT is some fae god level shit.

Fellas, if your girl is in an airy frock wielding a flaming sword, has far too many eyes, rings surrounding her while she screams "FEAR NOT",

That's not your girl.

That's a biblically accurate angel.

When leaders get their nine lives from starclan, they appearance got altered a bit to the uncanny valley territory

Bluestar used to have a gray-blue fur, but no she just, blue. Like blueberry blue. Her eyes is a deep indigo and her paws is a very light baby blue. her teeth and claws have a tint of blue in them.

Tallstar is very tall, from his tail to his ears. He looked more like a serval really. He can stand by his hind leg and looked all over the moor like a meerkat. He’s also very intimidating

Brokenstar looks like a frankencat. He’s markings make him looked like a patchwork and his limb moves like they were sewed to his body. His fur and whisker looked like loose strings and his teeth is very messy and not well defined.

Firestar fur moves like a burning ember, sound of crackled wood can often be heard if you near him. His fur light up even from a moonlight, making him looked ablaze.

aah i love your art, and liro's an absolute darling! i hope it's not too much trouble that i ask but how did you get so good at visualizing canine anatomy? i always have trouble making anatomy look convincing, they seem to always look one dimensional and flat. thank you and have a nice day!

Aaa thank you so much (and I know, right? I would be completely lost without Iiro). <3 

Well, I was lucky enough to grow up with dogs all around me (my first neighbourhood was inhabited by many German Shepherd Dog enthusiasts, including my parents), so I’ve spent a huge portion of my life observing their body structure and movements. I may not know all of the dog anatomy tips and tricks whatsoever but I’ve developed a strong sense of knowing what ~*~looks~*~ right and what does not. On top of that I’ve had a ton of repetitive practice.

I bet anybody can get better at doggo anatomy though. Genuine interest in learning all about your drawing subject goes far. Most of those Really Damn Good Artists that I know of use references and do regular life drawing sessions, so those two things are another key to effective learning (it should also help your brain to understand perspective and forms better! You mentioned that your dogs look “flat”, I’m by no means a professional and haven’t seen your drawings so I don’t know for sure but that to me sounds like you could benefit from practicing forms and perspective?).

You didn’t ask for this asdfg but here’s a handful of woof tutorials etc. that have helped me in the past, maybe you/somebody else reading this will find them useful:

I once saw an au that the "power of three" were from each of the clans. Heather would be one of them and have the power of coercion. She could make anyone believe what she said as long as she believed it herself. I think it's pretty cool! Also, headcannon she keeps petals of heather in her tail-tip cuz it's cute.
