I couldn’t get @thicctails’s Mythology Falls Dipper design out of my head, so I had to make something for it. (Tw for animal death (a mouse is being eaten by an owl))
Fun fact! In order for owls to be as silent flyers as they are, they had to lose the waterproof oil coating on their feathers, which makes them unable to fly when wet.
If anyone’s interested, I found some interesting videos about Owls and Cheetahs (that are both by two of my favorite YouTubers)
Mabel’s seal form looks a bit different than the (harbor) seal photos next to it, and that’s because I only found those pictures AFTER finishing the art. Before that I had just looked up “seal photos” and used the wrong species as a reference, even though I did the markings (almost) accurate.
Some older doodles below the cut
