#humanized animals

[itspkuwu]

I’ve been seeing pictures of EEnE characters as humanized animals. And I thought… what kind of critters would I turn them into? So here’s what I have:

Ed: Chicken. The reason for this should be obvious. Ed is a chicken lover. And I’m sure if he had to chose, he’d wanna be a chicken too. Double D: Ferret. Not only do I think it would fit with his color scheme, but ferrets are surprising clever creatures, like Double D.

Eddy: Pig. Eddy’s skin is literally pink. And aren’t pigs often associated with money? He even shape-shifted into a piggy bank that one time!

Sarah: Baby Chick. Since Ed and Sarah are siblings, it’s only right for Sarah to be a younger lil chicken. I can imagine her temper tantrums being referred to as “chicken fits”.

Jimmy: Bunny. Mr Yum Yum is already a bunny, so it’s fitting. And I saw @shriggisick draw Jimmy as one and thought it was adorable.

Jonny: Chameleon. I knew Jonny had to be a weird creature, and whenever he plays “Captain Melonhead” his whole body can camouflage into the outside of a watermelon!

Nazz: Butterfly. Not only are butterflies beautiful like her, but Nazz used to be chubby. Butterflies used to be caterpillars. Caterpillars are chubby. I rest my case.

Rolf: Goat. Pretty everyone who does this draws Rolf as a goat. And yeah, I agree. It fits. Rolf is just as tough as a goat too.

Kevin: Dog. Specifically a pit bull. I was thinking real hard about this one for a bit, then thought of a dog. I knew I had to think of a breed that liked to be mean. And I found pit bulls are very aggressive after doing research.

Lee: Cat. People think that cats are cruel, soulless creatures. Which I don’t think is true. But in THIS case? Oh yeah. Cat Lee is a menace.

Marie: Bat. A blue colored bat seems really cool in retrospect. And I knew it had to be an “edgier“ animal. By the way, I. Love. Bats. And Marie is probably my favorite Kanker, so I couldn’t resist.

May: Rat. Not a sneaky rat at all, but a very ditzy one. And her nasally voice would go well with a snout.

Did ya notice that each Kankers’ animal rhymes? I thought about making them all the same animal since they’re sisters, but then I remembered… they’re HALF sisters. So them being different species doesn’t seem like a stretch.

And finally, Eddy’s bro: Hog. A hog is pretty much just a tougher pig. Enough said.

Should I draw these? Lemme know!

Bearded Vultures / Quebrantahuesos [humanized animals]

15/06/2023

I just thought about making a humanized version of this beautiful vulture because the few times I've seen them in real life amazed me. And I just love how we call them in Spain: Quebrantahuesos (which literally means Boneshatterer)

"Humanizing my hamsters!"

So I really wanted to draw my hammies and turn them into more humanoid beings! And from past research I've done, I know they all originate from different regions and countries. So for extra fun I've given them traditional clothing!! I hope I got them as close as possible in my chibi art style, I took a lot of inspo 😭

Aksell: Egyptian dessert rat

Snowball: Russian dwarf hamster

Squirrel: Dwarf hamster (From the meadows of Mongolia)

Balder: Dwarf hamster (he is Iceland because of his name now)

Avalanche: Dwarf hamster (they originate from the wheat fields of Kazakhstan)

I can’t tell you how much I love this artwork from ancient Egypt (the Middle Kingdom). People have been raising cattle and practicing animal husbandry for so long, that there is something almost inherently human about this scene.

Everyone in the field of veterinary medicine or agriculture knows the feeling of staying up late with a laboring animal trying to make sure both mom and baby are okay. Delivering a calf is often physically and emotionally exhausting work that takes enormous patience and learned skill. It requires a unique balance of physical strength and gentleness to do correctly. There is no feeling quite like getting that baby out and everyone is okay. I’m certain ancient people must have felt the same way, and I wonder if the artist knew this feeling firsthand. I wonder if those humans depicted were people the artist knew, if the cow and calf maybe were as well.

It is funny. Recently I had a transphobe argue to me, that "well, it is all made up! Animals will still not know that you identify as a man". Which to me is so funny, because while there has never been extensive research done on this topic, there is a lot of anecdotal evidence showing the exact opposite.

As someone who has done a lot of work with animals, I can tell you, that those animals that for one reason or another like one gender more or less than another often show the same loving or hostile behavior towards people completely depending on the gender the people actually identifies as.

"Sure," some people might say, "because if you take hormons you gonna smell like the gender to an animal." But that is the funny part. Animals often act according to that with trans adults who are still in egg mode. Who have not come out yet. And nobody knows why and how they can tell.

But some of the harsher animals with a "gender preference in humans" are like the best trans indicators. You have not admitted to yourself you are a guy? Yeah, this cat is gonna hate you anyways. Because this cat hates men.

Sincerely the guy who got attacked by this one fucking bunny, who didn't like dudes, several times

I’m so emotional about dinosaur stuffed animals,,, there are these creatures, extinct long before any of us were alive, but we found their bones and their eggs and their footprints. And we made drawings and models of what they could’ve looked like. And we made them into stuffed animals so we could hold them. We made them soft so we could love them. I’m sobbing
