Sketches of Durja interactions

[mossymandibles]

Wanted to draw new Durja with Sylvaine and ended up with “6ft portrait painting you see when you enter a haunted estate”

Boop!!!

durja's new look Is Fire! Hey One questione: you said that her species' upper lip is more like a beak. how does she kiss people? Is difficult for her to eat since the beak doesnt stretch like mouth muscles would?

Thank you! ^-^ and thanks for your curiosity, I’ve got some info here!

It’s more like a thick keratin covering that grows over an existing upper lip, so they still got all the facial muscles underneath, with a few changes ofc, mostly with talking in ‘common tongue’ as you can probably imagine. Their mouth expressions are done more with the corners of their mouth or clicking. They can file their beak down, paint it, etc. Durja’s beak is more of a grey but she’ll color it black (She used to do this with permanent markers but the smell would make her nauseous).

It’s just an all around good tool. Durja will usually refuse to use scissors or cutlery knives.

Instead of traditional kissing, Furies are known to nuzzle or groom their partners. This doesn’t stop Sylvaine from smooching ofc.

Has Pico ever used anyone as a springboard before? Lots of small quadrupeds do it.

I’d say she does that a lot yes. There are plenty of high perches to reach on the ship.

She preforms many other cat behaviors

Couldn’t remember why I never finished the Loran and Pthumeru chalices in bloodborne so I went back in and THIS STATICY SON OF A BITCH WAS WAITING FOR ME IN BOTH OF THEM. AT DIFFERENT LAYERS.

“Abhorrent Beast” indeed. But I like his look. He might actually force me to go co-op for once.

‘We smelled your vibe across the bar’ or however the joke goes

Does Pico like to lay on Kraws belly?

I’d say she gives him the Totoro treatment often, yes

[mossymandibles]

Pico, the guy, yo. The new Ship Cat.

I need to draw Kraw doing those ‘dad with the cat he didn’t want’ memes.

A fisherman above and below the sea.

In the giant kelp forests, Kraw can really get an ambush on ya 🐅

As I mentioned before, his bioluminescence can do color shifts between red and green, switching between luring and invisibility.

Me wistfully watching boxing/fighting movies: I wish I had a disgruntled boxing mentor/sparring partner :(

[mossymandibles]

Almost forgot, I was goofin around on minecraft again after the update and cube Kraw has clothes now, he’s wearin his lil Hawaiian shirt.

Here’s a Fury. His name is Nebu, the Gilded Casque. I haven’t thought up fashion or anything yet so he just gets a bs loincloth slapped on him for now.

He’s a personal guardsmen/concubine of the rook matriarch. His particular species of Fury is called Welkin Sphinx. They’re like, an ‘upper echelon’ type species of Fury and are known for their large manes. They live at the higher peaks of their home; Mt. Somanyx, which was formed by a massive underwater volcano that’s thankfully been inactive for quite some time.

Anyway I don’t want to dump a buncha info just yet with only one Fury to show you, I want to make a whole thing for their different species and such but I don’t have the mental stamina right now to clean up and make presentable all my writing and sketches tbh, so here’s just a singular character :’T

(It looks like she has black lipstick but that’s a residual beak :>)

Working at my designs for different Fury species…which means Durja’s design will inevitably change again…🙃
