Day 3 of #Octumnal2025 - baking. Well... maybe it's relative, but I chose a microwave because I was told recently I "give off Animal Crossing hamster vibes" and must have been "microwaved in another life." Compliment? Insult? Whichever, I think this is going to become a sticker.

the third installment of my lil creatures:

Marshan 👽🍄, Questnyan 🐱❔, and Pupgup 🐶🐟

#art #oc

three of my original creature designs. The first is Marshan, a tentacled green creature with a ufo shaped mushroom on its head that projects a tractor beam of light. The second is Questnyan, a small floating cat creature with a purple striped tail shaped like a question mark. The third is pupgup, a small puppy with gills and a fish tail, covered in a koi fish pattern.
