I don’t close my door to cis people I trust. I don’t open my door to trans people I don’t trust

I care about the work you do, not whether you chant the right slogans, read the right books, or have the right labels

I trust actions, not words

"Haley! This isn't a nude beach!"
"Excuse you, I'm not nude, am I?"
"Well, no, but-"
"Then shut up and enjoy the view, Nate. Like this crab."

Switching from Kinktober to #Bonktober69 (by Lekroox)! Starting the list with my #furry tomboy, Haley Valmore!

Starting late is better than never, right? XD

Haley Valmore, topless and wearing swim trunks, sitting casually. There's a crab at one of her paws, seemingly about to snip at it. She's watching the crab with playful interest, right after getting scolded by her brother for her attire.

HI 🔥‼️⭐️ I’m Rey and I’m a fulltime, freelance creature artist! I love what I do and I hope you can tell. :0)

INFO: kr00bs.com
KoFi: ko-fi.com/kr00bs
♥️ @sapphicspots.bsky.social

We’re struggling but trying to hang in there. Shares are great! I’ll explain why ⬇️

Traditional art scan! Features a flushed rough collie wearing a black, leather muzzle. They’re holding a joint in between their toes and blowing its smoke through the small holes in the muzzle.

Smoke, starbursts, dots, checkers, smiley face stamps, and stamped letters that say “that’s rough,” decorate the negative space around the collie.

A personal fav of mine that’s now out in the world somewhere! I used illustrative markers, line pens, stamps, and sketched with a soft blue sketch pencil.

Big thanks to erasers, much love to all my erasers in the chat tonight. ♥️

Digital illustration! Features a snarling lion running a barbed tongue under its claws to groom them and keep them sharp/gleaming.

The mane billows around its face and paws, I love drawing manes so this piece was a blast. Big cats are a soft spot.

This piece has a halftone texture on it! Which textures the work to have a slight tv static to it.

Digital illustration of an armored, snarling, battle worn Kobold directly after receiving a strike that would scar him for years to come. Blood, tears, and dirt fly around him as what I could only imagine as a cyclone of pain and anger overcomes him.

This was a super fun icon! I love learning about the characters people bring to me and bringing certain parts of their story to life. In this case, I asked about the scar the character had! We went from there!

Experimental digital reference sheet! Billy the angelic dragon (he/they). Features an illustrated story of Billy, a scruffy blue-horned angelic dragon with wings for ears (there’s also a set of wings on their tail and feet)!

Features a scene of him sitting on the shore of a beach wearing a hoodie, shorts, and converses holding a little toy fish as he looks to the sky, whispering his new pronouns out loud for the first time: “He.. They. That… that feels.. good?” The grass around and behind him is full of stars, flowers, and swirls. A ufo floats casually in between the shore and the power lines in the distance. Pink clouds full of golden stars float up to the name text.

The middle features a symmetrical pelt version so the artists can see the characters stripes and dots. Also has the shark from ikea bc it’s a fav of his.
Other scenes are him in a car, looking away from a text conversation confused and flushed. The trans flag and pan flag swirl from behind their seat.

Last scene is a time skip to him out and proud at a pool party showing off his top surgery scars for the first time, so he’s all flustered and nervous when someone cute throws interest his way and is totally chill with his identity. He’s sitting on the edge of the yellow titled pool, dipping his feet in. A beach ball, a pink float, and an umbrella surround them. His speech bubble has the trans flag and then text that reads: “..that cool with you? Y-yeah? ♥️”

SUCH a fun piece. I love telling a story

a digital sketchbook page with a drawing of an odd hook with some fishing line, a rock with two white stripes crossing it, a quartz and a piece of obsidian, a pawprint on a napkin with a few flecks of dirt on it, a sketch of puget sound and another of the moon behind a lightpole. a sketch of a cloud in the top right contains a block of text that reads “what kind of wolf am i now that i’m domesticated by my own fear what kind of wolf stays locked in an open cage what kind of wolf forgets his own teeth what kind of wolf do i still have time to become” and the words “what kind of wolf do i still have time to become “ is darker and more legible than the rest

The only kind of climate change I can approve of 😌

Two big red cats circle a terrified hog encased in ice. The cat's tails are flames and melt the ice partially, exposing some pig butt and giving it a singe. "Uh-oh Step-Pig, I'm Stuck...!" ok I made the joke for you so you don't have to. Hot ham smoke emits from the pig and spells "BECOME AN" and melted ice on the bottom spells "ICE-FREE ZONE"
