updated Sleight ref!!
#i changed his colors !!#treat this as a suggestion than a solid ref. i spent like 3 hours drawing and redrawing the legs bc i couldnt get the shape right so if u#wanna draw them more planti or digi i do not mind ^_^ get silly with it!! same goes for pelt pattern do whatevr u want with it#the pelt pattern is loosely based on a snowshoe cat which was fun to play with. as u can see they kinda have a butterfly motif going on#if u squint the ear tufts kinda resemble luna moths or swallowtails with the long tail at the end of the wings#i was kinda torn about changing the costume color but it clashed too much with the new color palette so i had to change it#i didnt include the cape here so its easier to see the costume but ill draw it another time if i remember lol#its also a lil hard to see but i put pinstripes on their pants but thats optional. their design is pretty flexible anyway#god im pretty attached to this guy already. hes like semi fan character semi regular character... oc... thing#i should draw more furries. i followed some furry artists for giggles recently and its true what they say. u need furries in your life#btw while i was drawing this i was fooling around while trying to figure out his costume color and colored it as kaito kids suit for fun#and i just stared at it for a solid 5 minutes before saving a picture. maybe ill post it later#my art#myart#my oc#oc#furry art#fur#furry#laika's comet#laika's comet oc#fan character#sleight#ref sheet#oc ref sheet

I’mma chuggin’ fellas
#my wips#desmond miles#assassin's creed#you can tell I gave up on the face for a bit#and I made him too bulky#I’ll need to slim it down a bit#also what are wings#I never know how flexible they can be

Even Colonel Kidd went home.

That was as it should be. For the entire war so far, Jack Kidd had been carrying the 100th. He was the best air leader, and he flew all the tough missions when the 100th was out in front of task force. Until Bennett came, he was the Air Exec and Group Ops. To the degree that Harding and Kelly let him, he was the Group Commander. He was the Group.

At twenty-three when he looked eighteen, he was one of the handsomest men I had ever seen.

Now, after months of war, he looked fifteen years older. He was gaunt. His regulation hat, not the hundred-mission crush type, was too big for him. His uniform hung on him. Al Dahn, the Group Dental Officer, told me that Jack's gums were withdrawing from his teeth. He was exhausted.

Since he flew only when we were task force lead, he had not completed a tour. When Tom Jeffrey came on the base, he knew how great Kidd had been, but he knew that a man can only take so much.
"Jack, you have had enough. You are going home."

Unfortunately for Purple, it's going to be hard to inconspicuously wear wings in stick city. A poncho and a jacket blend in well enough, but Purple is gonna have a bit more difficulty with that.
oh purple is very aware! fortunately after they shed they can just take their wings off.
beforehand though...
let's just say they were both under the impression that purple was just gonna have to deal with being a beetle
#tommy's foolery#king does not stop apologizing for at least a week#probably more like a month. maybe 2#purple mostly just finds the elytra annoying tbh. it's hard to nap on your back when you've got some annoying chitin sticking out#purple 🤝 one of my ocs: FUCK THIS STUPID CHITIN. LET ME NAP#tommy's stickmen tag#tommy's aus#pitch's art#selkie sticks au#but yeah the elytra is not very flexible in my hc. technically 'elytra' is the word for the shell covering a beetle's wings#so i hc they're beetlelike. in selkie au they end up basically turning into moth wings though

part of charles' interview today in the media pen ⍮ looking lovely as ever and sounding optimistic about the race 🪴
“It’s not a mini DRS, but we’ve brought a new front wing. I don’t know if it’ll be enough to win, but historically, we��ve been very strong on this track. I hope it’s the same this year."

I'm back to thinking about giving Mizuki butterfly pattern wings
#the idea is really nice but I do want to keep the design simple enough that it won't stick out too much from the rest#my designs are rather simple in terms of pattern and rely on character color and proportions. Making patterned wings can turn out to be busy#like my first Airi design. Not to mention the hassle of drawing a complex design on a flexible material#I can allow myself some complexity since I'm an illustrator and not an animator but I'm an illustrator with a will to live#many thoughts against the idea but what if I make a design I like so much that idgaf#that's what it's all about really#zondesrambles

What do the Wyverns in Sevenlands look like?
Like a crow extremely proud of their ancestry had a baby with the platonic ideal of a Reptile (crocodile snake lizard thing), but big enough to ride.
Also they come in different breeds since they've been domesticated but that's the basis lol
#I keep fiddling with the details of their design here and there#will post a little sketch. one day#nakey face crocodile tail sharp bird eyes. beak with like fake teeth on it. probably wing claws. long flexible neck

The way everyone does build videos for elden ring is often so useless, they're so often centered around a single spell or type of spell and then a single weapon. I use a variety of weapons on every build I've done!!
#I'm reaching 150 on my int build and I have some flexibility here for the next 10 level ups.#I could put extra points into endurance. Get vigor to 60 instead of 50 but I'm not sure how much good that does#could put points into dex for all those int/dex weapons at the eleventh hour. Death's Poker and Wing of Astel if I go 17 dex#I feel like 30 is a good amount of mind I was going to put points there but changed. My mind.#Me vs elden ring#or I could put an extra few points into strength and get some great hammers and great axes up in here.#Or I couldn't go wrong dumping it all in endurance since I already kind of have all the weapons I'm going to use on this build#namely the moonlight greatsword. My longsword; stone club; misbegotten axe#and Moonlight greatsword really chews through stamina. As do the stronger spells. Might just go with that.

After much study I am forced to conclude that it is Very Difficult to see which bits of membrane and fingers are curled over or behind or beside each other and in what orders when a bat has its wings folded for ground-crawling or branch-climbing type locomotion.
It’s just a folded bundle of twiggy finger bones and indistinguishable skin in most photos I can find. And that’s assuming you can even see anything at all except the large arm bones and some skin. 😂
Maybe I’ll have more luck with videos. Youtube lets you slow down playback speed….
#does this mean I can just draw a twiggy bundle of lines in the right general shape and it’d be good enough?#probably#is it going to bother me that I don’t Know; that I can’t visualize folding and unfolding the origami pattern?#yes#bat wings are so FUCKING ridiculously flexible. Just like. For the record#said tiny twiggy little bones can fold up so tightly together like it’s nothing; and wrap around things;#and the membrane is so stretchy#life flails#art flails#my stuff

re: my last Anabel post...I am absolutely still down to interact with any Anabel muses!! While Anabel's abrupt 'disappearance' (and amnesia) was a formative event in Lucy's life, her timeline(s) can always be built around, tweaked, or changed completely--we can always talk about these interactions! There's no chronological lock here and nothing's set in stone.
in other words, I'm so flexible when it comes to timelines/situations/dynamics, etc. Whatever's the most fun for us! 💜
#ooc#(got a q about this so thought it would be nice to clarify!!)#(love filling out my muse timelines but i can ALWAYS be accommodating and flexible for more interactions with more muses)#(come here!! preestablished stuff is fun. winging stuff is also fun.)
