Some dino sketch comms done! A cassowary/emu-inspired dilophosaurus, and two styracosaurs with zoomies.

Week got busier than anticipated, but I'll be continuing dino comms this week. Here's a sloppy sketch of a Dilophosaurus request. I'll be adding cleaner line art later ✌️

I'm curious if your approach to inking the forms or resources regarding it

I block out areas of heavy shadows with ink and then fill in the details. If I want some heavy meditation or a block print like finish I go with a scribble shading approach, like with my recent tarot wolves. I'd be a terrible teacher because I'm not confident at communicating thoughts to words.

I'd suggest studying the great artists'methods, and for me that really was Mike Mignola, Mike Ploog, Jhonen Vasquez, and Albrecht Durer for the longest time. Since then I just go with whatever I feel is best? Like studying from them to grow my legs, then walk, if that makes sense.

If you're talking about the fundamentals of inking, I suggest looking up the works of Alphonso Dunn. He has a few books available and also so, so many videos on his YouTube that I think are very essential for anyone at any skill level approaching ink. I like to watch him and relearn how to ink and falling in love with it all over again. I also feel in recent years I've developed skill regression (I got a cocktail of disorders affecting memory and function) so I feel I'm learning about it all the time. Which can sometimes be a good problem to have, it keeps me curious. Also why I'd be a terrible mentor imo.

Anyway I'm rambling. Alphonso Dunn is your guy, watch his vids. Be unafraid. Just start drawing in ink.

Hey friend! Long time no chat! I hope life is treating you and your partner with kindness.

As a fun little thing What is your favourite animal or species of animal and why?

It's been okay. Tired of the hustle but gotta keep the lights on yk. NDA work is taking up a lot of my time, and it's all cool stuff dgmw, but I need to improve making time to draw for myself.

Favorite animal will probably always be hyena. I think they're neat, and have misunderstood social hierarchy that is much more than what's typically an accepted belief (the males receiving hostility/abused by females.) They're matrilineal animals and the males typically move from pack to pack for genetic variation. It would make sense there are more instances of female hyenas pushing around lower ranking males because they probably just showed up. Like I would be a little bit of an asshole if some rando came to my porch and was like "I wanna bang your sister and join your clan for the food and pack benefits." Like, excuse me, who are you? Pushes this dude around a bit.

Anyway, hyenas are cool. I like a cool animal that nature said at some evolutionary point in history that this creature is "good enough" and remained seemingly unchanged beyond epochs. I highly suggest also scoping out hyena evolution and prehistoric species (dinocrocuta, my beloved).

Um, hi there! Sorry to bother you. I was going to add one of your hyena skull "lmao" shirts to my Christmas list to give to my family (I'm... kind of weird for this perhaps ahhh but I love it and can't afford one myself), but noticed it's not on your shop anymore. Was it a limited design, or is it just temporarily sold out? Thank you very much for your time. Sorry again to bug you. That one and all the others are really great and I truly love your work. Stay awesome.

it's still in the shop. it's located here: https://mxmorgan.threadless.com/designs/lmao/mens/t-shirt/extra-soft
