made a new Bird Guy for myself... his name is summer #furryart #oc

Sketchy drawing of an anthro American kestrel. The markings and colors are typical of a real kestrel, but the slaty gray-blue is lightened to a seafoam color and the rusty orange-brown is a pale, sunny orange. The spots on the flanks are triangular in shape and shades of slaty blue and teal instead of black. He's also wearing a spring-green bandana, and a sailor bracelet around one leg.

The same character and drawing, but now wearing a pair of aviator goggles on his forehead and a bright red bandana.

The same character but in colors closer to a natural kestrel, and wearing a white and red raglan tee and the goggles. I love making alternate versions of things.

my goal was to do hourlies during a random day of the week and post them today because I don't generally do shit on sundays and it would be mind numbingly boring but then I started and didn't finish 😔

okay crazy thought . what if gru was butch

a grayscale sketch of butch gru from despicable me. she's looking annoyed about something.

a doodle page of butch gru. two fullbody doodles are of her looking mischievous and determined. One of the fullbodies has her wearing a skirt, while the other is wearing her regular clothes. there's a simple doodle of her and lucy close together with a lesbian flag scarf wrapped around both their necks. lucy asks gru, "wow gru where did you get such a long bacon" to which gru replies with a smirk, "long bacon store".
The last doodle is of gru looking a little concerned at the text above her, which says "world's first deadbeat daughter turned best butch girldad".

got to finish this ych for a tumblr client!

Digital scene depicting an anthro jackalope standing in snow and looking out over a foggy, mountainous landscape, with a rainbow arching in the distance and a silhouetted bird wheeling above. The character's foot is propped up on a rock, and he's wearing a forest green puffer jacket and an ochre backpack with a rolled-up sleeping pad and a brown tree keychain. His antlers are tree branches. The shape of the canvas rounds off at the top to echo the rainbow.

I see awesome artists get a lot of appreciation for a well-executed, unique thing they did and part of me is like "why didn't I think of that??" and the answer is ofc that they drew what THEY LIKE, not what they saw someone else draw. so then I ask myself what do I LIKE and I literally don't know
