May the new year be kind.

This archway was made with 80 shed antlers found over the years while planting trees in BC and sent back to Nova Scotia where it stands.

A new viewpoint on antlers reveals the evolutionary history of deer (Cervidae, Mammalia)

fullview recommended!

something i've wanted to do for a while now. i've scoured the internet for something like this and can't find anything that compares all the different types of antlers together. except one recent study on their evolution, which is also very interesting on its own! i simplified it to provide a visual reference, while still trying to be scientifically accurate. some things differ between this and trophy scoring terminology like where the beam is and whatnot, so if something looks weird that's why.

small additional note, this study and others provide a lot of evidence that eld's deer should be in their own genus as it doesn't appear similar enough to barasingha and schomburgk's deer. however this doesn't seem to be adapted anywhere yet, so they're still in Rucervus for this guide.

In the furry au are Mockley and Coltarch just themselves or do they have their own fursonas that are completely different from the animals that they already are

they have fursonas! <:^) though i do like the idea of furries existing alongside weird dinosaurs

here's some little portrait sketches. moose coltarch and badger mockley

still not completely sold on coltarch being a moose, might make him an adder. but mockley's a badger for sure, even though owl/squirrel/hare were tempting. i want them to all be cute fairytale woodland critters together, to match the fox/pheasant thing mika and heidi have going on....beatrix potter type animals just spiritually and mentally ripping each other to shreds. and also physically

I drew this for Christopher Scott as a holiday gift, who you might remember hired me to illustrate the first story in the Eddie the Yeti children's book series two years ago!

If you're interested in checking out the book (or gifting it to someone), it's still available at https://eddietheyeti.com/. There's both an ebook and physical version, but it seems like the physical book can only be shipped within the United States. If you do go that route, use promo code XMAS23 for free shipping until Christmas. :3

I'm still waiting for the second book I illustrated to come out, but hopefully that'll happen soon enough!

Hiiiii I just wanted to say your art is so good! I came for the midoyuzu art and stayed for the incredible art style!

Also I feel like I should mention that the little duck watermark makes me unreasonably happy every time I see it

TYSM!!!! youre one of the regulars in my notifs i always see and go ah!! you again :] ty for sticking around!

amgkjsdhgdsh i used to just write my name somewhere as a watermark but at some point i felt like it was a bit boring and tried to make a new one. and one of my sonas up til now has been a little duck with antlers so i thought hey why not use that. its simple but im very fond of it myself too :'>>
