you can tell how much I was enjoying the journey of a drawing vs trying to get it done by whether I drew a buckle accurately or not

Crops of two of my drawings showing the collar and overall strap of one character and the collar of a second. Overlaid text says "lazy buckles" with arrows pointing to the collar and overall buckles, which are simplified as being stuck onto a single strip of fabric with no overlap for adjustability and would therefore not function.Crops of another two pieces, showing harness straps of one character and a leather apron strap of a second. These buckles are properly looped through a doubled layer of leather so something holds them on, and they pierce through another layer so that they can be adjusted. Text says "I'm locked in" with "locked" crossed out and replaced with "buckled".

I didn't even know #avianaugust was going on so imagine my surprise to see that day 1 was northern lapwing yesterday after I just recently designed one as an artfight attack! posting late but barely :P

Digital drawings of an anthro northern lapwing, a type of shorebird. A fullbody from the back, a chibi front view, a headshot, and a clothed halfbody are shown. The character is overall cool brown and white, with orange legs and iridescent wings. They have a few feathers sticking back off their head stylized as a ponytail. In the clothed halfbody, they're writing in a Rite in the Rain notebook and wearing waders.

our water, air, and the world's ecosystems are actively being harmed by the greedy and corrupt. but it isn't too late! you can make an effort, do your part!!! 🌱🌎

Kody, an off-white, light green, and light blue anthropomorphic doggy offering her paw to you as she stands tall, one paw holding the strap of her  backpack. Trees in the background tower over her, sunlight dappling through the trees. Big text in green says "Get up! IT'S NOT TOO LATE!"

made a new base -- an homage to the prodig-y one that served me so well back in the day! test driving it with some new little guys I'm pricing at 35usd each for now! 3 and 4 are pending!

four chibi-style anthro designs in a row. the first is a tiger whose stripes resemble shadows cast by jungle leaves, with dark green, curly hair. the second is a white cat with low navy blue spotting and a blue grid over their whole body like graph paper. the third is an autumnal jackalope with sticks for antlers wearing a red handkerchief and a blue coat. the fourth is a navy blue sea otter with white spots all over and fins like a coelocanth, and bright green highlights in their eyes and bioluminescent whiskers.
