#Rabbit god

[somerandomcockroach]

[roseate-felidae]

One of my main oc is this rabbit goddess.

She supposed to be the literal moon rabbit. But her true size allows the moon to fit in one of her eye sockets.

She normally takes the form of a normal black otter mini rex.

But can change into this giant (towers over city) rabbit. But made of stars and translucent.

Sometimes theres these golden rings around her head, waist and back. As a sort of power restaint.

I like to imagine a restrained attack with the back ring like how the overdrive mega flare happens with final fantasy 11 Bahamut.

She can travel through hopping but also gliding through the air or leaping in giant airy bounds. Kind of like a Chinese dragon or the black rabbit of inle from Watership down 1978.

The starry translucence is kind of a mix between the cosmos and jelly like. Imagine the forest god from Princess Mononoke but with stars not water. This non solidity means she doesn't crush people but they phase through.

Her attacks are Blasty beamy stuff (Bahamut style), gravitational stuff/Luna powers.

Inspiration is down below.

This one image from https://youtu.be/8EgVMFO89zc heavily inspired. But with a lot less purple and more actual space, very blue based.

Gold ring inspiration, Pokémon arceus, final fantasy 11 Bahamut

Final fantasy 11 Bahamut overdrive mega flare , with spinny gold wheel

The transformed forest god from Princess mononoke

She also sometimes a weird curved horn similar to Ixion from final fantasy 11. Seriously final fantasy 11 had great designs.

Lastly, the black otter mini rex (my photo)

A black otter in rex shows off colours better.

I really need to get around to drawing this oc, but the stars are quite difficult. Need to teach myself stars and translucence in watercolour.

My other oc is literally just a sentient black otter bunny who sometimes acts like a Beatrix Potter rabbit. (Book not film)

Happy Chinese/Lunar New year everyone! As per usual, I've done a little bit of celebratory artwork :D

I decided that, with this being the year of the rabbit, I should call attention to one of our more famous rabbits, and one of our less famous ones - On the left here is the moon rabbit, who uses their mortar and pestle to grind immortality medicine. On the right is the leveret, the god of same-sex love (well, specifically between men, but I like to think by now he shows solidarity and love for all his quiblings).

It can be quite difficult for queer Asian folks to even just exist peacefully in what can often be a very traditionalist society - heck, I'm bi, in the diaspora, and I'm still very selective about which family members I tell about it. But there is a kind of comfort, whether you believe in small gods and immortals and whatnot, in knowing that people like you are represented in the pantheon.

Of course, the story of the Leveret god is... Fraught with weirdness. In the story, a young soldier spies on an official in a bid to see him naked, and is caught and killed by the official. The gods, in their odd and fickle way, took pity on the soul of the soldier because his transgression was driven by feelings of love and certainly did not warrant the punishment meted out to him. So he returned in the form of a young rabbit, and became a patron god of men who love men.

Queerness is still viewed in a lot of Chinese society as dirty or perverse, and it's often a struggle to extract the reality of existence from this mire of lies, half-truths, and misunderstandings. Not unlike older attitudes still prevalent in western societies.

So, this year of the rabbit, I ask everyone to revisit their understanding of queer love, and support those in your lives who may need that little bit extra help to be able to live their lives as true to themselves as they can :)

ChinZhillas as Rabbit God motifs in MSP

Saw a random photo of chinchillas and it hit me immediately for the first time like a thunderbolt!

My appreciation for the way Director Kornprom Niyomsil created #MySchoolPresident as a love letter not just to BL fandom in general, but to Asian fujoshis in particular, just keeps climbing for the way it stands out as a monument to solidarity between women and queer men #RabbitGod

When my tears stop clouding my vision I‘ll do a thread on this brand new solo director who used his respect for Asian women, his embrace of women’s culture and a deep appreciation for the value of women’s innovation, to create pathbreaking art #RabitGod

This creative team loves and respects BL as an art as well as the people who innovated and continue to drive creation of its outputs and it’s clear they have high regard for the fans whose labours of love keep the BL industry growing from strength to strength, as a place of hope and refuge for women, queer men, trans and nonbinary people as fans

ChinZhilla Baby is also the affectionate name Tinn gives to his sweetheart Gun, because the writers and Director have done their BL homework, that’s why an icon to male-male love across Asia is a prominent motif running through My School President.

The ChinZhilla Rabbit God tribute is only one of several witty meta narratives woven through MSP’s clever and politically astute screenplay. The creators even dedicated the fandom name #MOMMYZHILLA to Fujoshis

For more on the Rabit God legend and it’s meaning to queer communities in China and through Asia and understand why it’s a BL icon for those in the know here’s a link to a great thread

A little something I did for lunar new year!

Since it's the year of the water rabbit I wanted to try and see if I could find someting to incorporate the water tiger from last year and then I came across the Chinese rabbit god Tu'er Ye.

He's the moon goddess' rabbit and was sent down from the heavens to cure people. He's also often depicted riding a tiger (or dragon, or kylin, ...)

I would have been lost without you. Thank you for guiding me, and always protecting me.

I don’t think you ever needed me as a guardian, though it was my life’s honour to do so.

Baby Emhira having a bright moment with her guardians Purvan and Galdric! I can’t stop thinking about Purvan helping to raise the Raven Queen as a baby. The mortal who became a goddess who became a mortal, and he’s there to watch her grow up. It makes me so emotional 🥲

my rabbit oc (bunsona), Lauren the black otter mini rex.

Sometimes just a regular (but sentient, like children's books) mini rex,

Others are Beatrix Potter -esque, or using a magic human mask to appear as a human to viewers.

Two different types of horns, from an final fantasy Ixion inspired horn (but backwards) to Megaloceros antlers.

Some versions are made of star dust and colossal in size.

All are female, mini rex, black otter (with exception of stardust) and have some sort of moon based power (inspired by moon rabbit).

Most commonly used is regular (but sentient) black otter mini rex. Second used is stardust and mask one.

Really scruffy drawing but gets the design across.

You should draw Vanny with that red lipstick more often she slays in it 😍

She only wears the red lipstick when in her suit but I agreed wholeheartedly,, queen
