Back on my bullshit

Pirates of the Carageenan (patchouli, sandalwood, ginger)

 

sometimes falling down the Wikipedia hole means finding your favorite anime dub actors in random shitty 2000s direct-to-tv movies

 

also there's a surprising overlap between my little pony voice actors and ranma 1/2 voice actors

 

anyway happy new year I've finally got round to starting that bestiary redraw I've wanted to do for years

 

squints
all the names in this (admittedly sci-fi) book are Scandinavian or Russian, but everyone is written with Scottish accents
why

 

yeah okay I'm digging the watercolor for this

 

That looks great!

 

curiosity, post-trespasser: I need to go to the Ariqun and tell her that her information is wrong since all of her people died before they could do it
Josie, ten seconds from an aneurysm: Inquisitor pleASE--

 

Spoiler: Big

I wanna paint the action shot too but THE NOODL
IT IS COLOR

 

Good noodl!!

 

Spoiler: big

\o/
next up: acid-tongue serpenta, which means I'll need to figure out what animal it's supposed to based off
not that fr anatomy ever makes much sense, but Still

 

The Serpentas are probably based on the Questing Beast!

 

linse........

 

I love that front view! Looks so pettable...

 

that's it, time to take me out back the shed, I've officially become That Nerd pulling out physical books for page-exact citations for online discussions of fictional bio/cosmology

 

You"ve reached your final form, matured to your nerdy peak

Welcome to the fold

 

Spoiler: big
