We have to build the Republic of Heaven where we are, because for us, there is no elsewhere.

My friends really liked this one <3

The print of the kitty was made by @moonbows.hop and the puffin sticker, by @nephila_creaciones, both on insta!!

The ID is in ALT this time

Shameless close ups because this took me like four days

Some stuff I've drawn semi recently

#keese draws #oc art #oc #ocs #furry #furry oc #furry art #Ive been going thru it recently but Ill survive #on the bright side the pet sitting job for my aunt is coming up soon #so Ill have a house to myself for a bit at least #Im probably still gonna be fairly offline for the foreseeable future unless I somehow manage to fix my sleep schedule anytime soon #not to say I will be on any sorta complete hiatus or anything just that Im not getting any more active most likely #not that I think anyone rly cares at this point since its been the norm for a while now but yknow #Ill still be around to answer asks and stuff just dont freak out if I take a lil bit to see it 👍 #anyways enough of being a downer Im actually pretty happy with these even if theyre mostly just doodles #also I havent posted any art of these guys in a While but say hi to them while you can cause theyre back into the void of my brain now #first is keese (the oc™) second is toon and third is clyve #all from different stories but toon and clyve are both from the magic cat universe #their paths never meet tho the closest connection they have has to go through like 4 characters first #you can also tell theyre from different stories because one is anthro and the other isnt lol #generally speaking I consider anthro designs slightly more canon but both are canon depending on the story #not in a shapeshifting way just in a me being an inconsistent bitch sorta way #but yeah keese the oc is much older than either of those two I just dont talk abt them or their story ever #but hey if any of yall remember suckerz those two are besties #suckerz is sort of younger than the other two and sort of much older than all three #shes a sort of updated version of a reallyyyy old sona sort of character I had in like 6th grade I think #back during my lilo and stitch experiment oc era where I had one that was music themed #I also had a digimon variant of her she was called like beatramon or smth like that #she was basically a hypothetical music mascot and shes kind of still that tbh #if I ever get enough into making music that I start posting shit it will be my music mascot

[rainyjackalope]

btw i will make a sona for myself based on your favorite animal but you have to draw yourself as a jackalope in return

im dead serious

you can be a bunny or a hare, doesn't matter. look up different breeds and species and colors if you want and then give them some kind of horns or antlers (wolpertingers are also fine but they have to be rabbit/hare based it's the rules.) it can also be a hybrid in general and not have strictly rabbit features, i dont wanna limit people too much

my conditions are i wont do bugs for mine (unless its a moth!) i like bugs but i rly dont like looking at photos of some kinds too much and some bugs are too intricate for me to do justice for comfortably in anthro form. i havent practiced that enough also: no open species type things. actual animals or general cryptids please i don't get into open species stuff at all

#fish are totally fine tho i love fish anthros and want to draw them more #im SO SERIOUS reply with an animal and ill start scheming #i love making 50000 sonas #i already have fursonas of: jackalope bunny chicken dragon(x2) lion #so i wont do those again #you havent seen my lion sona because hes in design hell and im taking him very seriously but he exists and i dont want a second one asdjhgd #i will not be hounding you for your “half” its not a concrete agreement as much as “if you do it I'd LOVE to see and think it was cool” #mine might take a while bc I get hung up on designs and have a lot of work to do otherwise so art isnt being done a lot but- #-i promise to think on it and give it a few rough sketches if nothing else unless I somehow get attacked with 100 ideas (but I doubt that) #and if you do make a jackalope even if you never use it again/pass the design on to someone else you should tag me or send it to me #I love seeing them :) #rainy rambles #if nobunny takes me up on this thats ok i just thought it was a fun idea

[tomaturtles]

Mannnnn Mocha's design is soooo good actually like damn I rly popped off with them huh

#rat rambles #oc posting #fun fact I actually originally made them to be an adoptable but got too attached FAST #I never did put the other guy I made up for adopt of toyhouse tho msybe I should do that #Id need to redesign them a bit first tho since they turned out kinda ugly #but yeah mocha is like one of the only characters Ive designed that genuinely grew on me that fast #they became a huge comfort like day one idk what I did to make a character that would rewire my brain like mocha did but good job me #and risa is dead to me /j #but I will admit I did struggle with risa design wise #all I had in my head conceptually for them was 'long' and nothing else gkfnfhf #but now Im pretty happy with risa's design even if I struggle to draw them consistantly #but honestly those two have been complimented many times before wheres all the love for my boy courtney /j #I love his design sm too but like every drawing Ive made of him ever has flopped so bad gmfnfjf #is it because he and his friends arent anthros? cant believe yall hate ferals smh /j #but for courtney I had a pretty clear image of what I wanted him to look like before designing him #honestly clear emough that I worried hed be one of those characters I wouldnt be able to design #but I did so all is well #moral of the story I make banging designs but am bad at getting attached to them unless they were already a character before hand #unless its mocha. in which case I get attached immediately and draw them 50 times in a week #anyways its late gn

ITS THE SAME ANON THAT ASKED ABOUT NARI'S CHILDHOOD HIII

I have to apologize, I am genuinely obsessed with your Au, its so well written and it absolutely makes my day better when you give us lore!! While looking/reading at your recent art, I could feel the emotions from it. The tragedy... The pain, and you draw it so perfectly. I had to put my phone down for a while and just absorb it in because it was that POWERFUL.

Now, another question if that's okay! From what I Anzyaled, Shamura took Nari in, and cared for him. They were a big sister figure to him right? (Or at least a guardian) OHHH IM GETTING CURIOUS ABOUT HOW HE CAME TO BE A GOD OF DEATH...

I have to apologize, I am genuinely obsessed with your Au, its so well written and it absolutely makes my day better when you give us lore!!

I had to put my phone down for a while and just absorb it in because it was that POWERFUL.

THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS MADE MY WHOLE DAY DUDE U HAVE NO IDEA HERES A REALLY CONFUSING INFO-DUMP FOR YOU!

Shamura, God of Knowledge and War, took the nameless cursed kitten into the family. They named him "Narinder" King of Souls, when crowning him. (Because Shamura gained the crown of knowledge, they wanted to know everything about crowns, purpose, magic, ect. This was a moment of opportunity for them when they found the red crown.)

They spent thousands of years leading Narinder alongside the rest of the bishops, to master their domains and grow close as a family. Narinder was born into death, and Shamura would help him master it. Since the siblings were crowned, the lands began to change, new species would arise into sentience, cults raised in the names of gods, chaos, famine, sickness would spread, sacrifices would be made in order for both sides to thrive.

Narinder was not alone in being born (or turned) demonic in nature. He was simply the first. And in Shamura's curiosity, they would help him know this, and master death and manipulation of the mortals, who's lives were too short to see the lands around them shift and bend to match their gods over such a long time. Cults in Darkwood, Anura, Anchordeep, and the Silk Cradle would sacrifice their people, and Narinder would gain power from a portion of these souls. Some souls can be used for their god's needs and, some can be sent to the afterlife. This was Narinder's occupation. Shamura guided Leshy, Heket, Kallamar and Narinder into their god-hoods as well as managing their own and discovering as much as they could about magic and godhood. (Since each of the 4 gods rose, their new anthro races rose with them, and thus created a perpetual cycle of sacrificial religion- that the original mammalian anthros often joined out of fear or force. People would either become demonic via ritual (become turned) or be born demonic and serve there gods meanwhile the land around them was changing over thousands of years, things were getting worse and worse. Kallamar's people were getting sicker. Heket's hungrier, shamura's more animistic, Leshy's more savage. All of them sacrificing harder, praying harder, ritualizing harder, dedicating their lives, economy and infrastructure to their religions and becoming more and more devoted- not realizing the lands around them have completely morphed, in physically impossible ways to match their new gods in a sense of false beauty and righteousness. It is for the good of all that lives that these lands were severed from the rest of the world)

But Narinder was never a 4th horseman of the apocalypse. He never really had a land of his own, though he did have his worshipers. His siblings were happy, but Narinder wanted more.

My gift for the @technoblade-gift-exchange !! i was assigned to @simplepotatofarmer who asked for dsmp rivals duo. i hope you like it Loyal!

rambling about headcanons, designs, and my process and stuff under the readmore, because i wanna talk about it but dont want the post to be super long !!

i had originally planned to not have a background and then at the last second i decided to speedrun drawing one in a few hours so um. quality difference but its fine. also unrelated but im pretty sure everything about how i draw animals and anthros makes it very obvious i used to be in the warrior cats fandom lol. anyway onto the designs!!

the gold on techno is scars from the totem at the execution, which i think is a pretty common thing for techno designs. he isnt supposed to be a piglin, but rather similar species of anthropomorphic pig. also his mane and tail fluff are naturally brown but he dyes them pink ^_^ so cool !! um. i maaayyy have forgotten the crown until i was way too far into the piece to add it. haha. oops. pretend its missing because. uuh. hes in a casual outfit. "but he still has the cape" yeah its comfy. "but dream has a mask thats not casual" dream is dream he does Not relax fully ever. see entirely intentional i would never make a mistake.

dream is an original shapeshifter species i came up with because i couldnt decide what i wanted him to be. i havent decided on a name for the species yet but i plan to make almost every solid-color or nearly solid color mcyt into this species. theyre mostly involuntary/unconscious shapeshifters. so like they change slowly over weeks or months to adapt to their surroundings, with little conscious control. basically i wanted him to be like five different things so i shoved them together lol, rabbit ears but in a pattern that looks like an axolotl, a cool tail, TOE BEANS tho you cant see them. this was actually the first time ive ever had a dream design im happy with so thats really nice.

i um. i made full use of my time lol, i spent a bit over a week on the lineart, another week on the coloring, and maybe a week and a half on rendering. unless i suddenly became shit at math(which is possible) that adds up to roughly the amount of time i had to work on it. im really proud of myself actually since i usually take a while to do art, and i wasnt sure i would be able to make something id be happy with in this amount of time. but i did! woah!! this was my first time participating in a fandom gift exchange and it was so fun, and also helped motivate me to draw more instead of getting distracted like i usually do (classic adhd moment) lol. anyway super cool!!

Loyal if u decided to read all this for some reason then again i really hope u like it!! u are so cool and i really love ur rivals duo opinions and creations so i hope u like this! i know theres been shit happening lately, i hope ur doing ok!!

[l-flyhight]

Im getting rather annoyed

No. Everyone has the right yo ship what they want. Whatever brings you joy. This is but my opinon thats it. No judgement no shame. Im venting.

Now im a bit of a multishipper. Like to see some diversity in art you know? But never have i met such people that are so angry or vicious as tipo shippers. Kung fu panda po x tigress

Where do i start with this? Never in the course of the films have at any point do they show or hint that their crushing on each other. No romantic coded scenes. Nothing. So thats unfortunate why i don't see what all you lovley people see because i dont.

Tigress tai lung and po are conected in the parent upbringing sibling cycle. But hey ship whatever you want.

Now this is where people start to hate on me but let me clarify no hate nor disrespect to anyone. Im sick of looking at kung fu panda art and what? 97% of it is tigress? How abertary. Dull. What about the others? Do they not deserve as much attention? Clearly not.

As for the ship people get my goat "make it canon" blah blah. In the art of story telling to have it rondomly their into each other after like nothing? Makes for bad writing.

I do enjoy anything kung fu panda related but the ship for me anyway just doesn't fly. Those whom are super into the franchise are like yes they are but those who have seen all three films and enjoy them are like what? No.

Again if your going to ship them why on earth is tigress oc? Like shes all happy and silly? No.

Still here? Angry yet? Fuming because my trained animation degree with honors head doesnt comprehend what apparently im missing? Well thats ok.

Now i know alot of people who are actually nice but ive met vicious fans directing their hate towards me. Death threats. Vulgar language. The works. Made me just not want to draw anything kung fu panda related due to it.

Now recently due to the encouragement of others i did draw ship art. Dragon knight? Yes. Why? Because its actually hinted at in such a badly written way. I wont get into it. Thats a rant another time.

Now as something that i personally dont like and that goes across any anthro media is interspecies relations. Not a fan. However their ate acceptions to the rule and that has alot to do with the universe in which the fandom is set. BNA for example. The grimior of zero explains this perfectly, interspecies actually doesnt matter due to the world building. But in cases like zootopia or kung fu panda (films only) interspecies relationships arnt explored nor shown.

As for tipo po loves kung fu thats it. The only time he has ever shown any interest in a girl is meimei. Drops his baobao bun. Pupils dilate. yes theirs a but the illusion broke when she spoke soooo that doesn't really count.

Still here? Well good for you. still pissed at me for not conforming to liking what everyone else does? Well that too is ok.

If you ship tipo thats cool. Heck ive seen art. Some of its nice. Art is art and a ship diesnt define a person. But stop with the viciousness po will probably never end up with tigress. But thats a good thing. He doesnt end up with anyone. That way everyone wins. But the viciousness and anger and the make it canon because insert reaons here is so stupid.

Stuck around? Read my vent? Great. Please refrain from commenting anything vulgar towards my person and remember. Opinon.

Ship whatever you like. Awesome. Great.

Now piss off. Im tired.

I know you’re asleep right now but for when you wake up/when you get the chance, do you have any advice for drawing?

Good morning! Well afternoon where i am now-

I had whole paragraphs of replies originally written down. But then read those and realized “wait this is pretentious not helpful” so in the trash it goes and actual advice in 3 2 1:

-Draw the same thing differently. An example is how i learned (still am learning) to draw rocky, turn his head in different direction and angles and draw it to learn facial structure, expression and shape language. References are KING and if u need to take a selfie first of you doing the expression or set in the angle then do it! Infact i encourage everyone to always use references! Especially as a learning tool.

Dont know how to draw hands? Take a picture of your own hand in different positions and replicate that!

“I did that but it doesn’t look right and feels flat or wrong”

-shape language, repeats that 50 times over

Everything in art started out as a simple shapes and grew more complex overtime. Honestly tracy butler said it best in her tutorials!

Credit ofc goes to @lackadaisycats

Respective links: Bleep and bloop

These tips apply to everything, and the best part about learning is that you can stop at any point, as long as u feel u did something new today. No need to draw everyday, no need to grind out a 100 10sec drawings on a single page. Those are learning tools too! But they can be very intimidating and demotivating to someone not used to drawing a lot.

My process:

Honestly it’s as simple as, thats a funny cat picture, im drawing my favorite pyromanic cat as this now. Honestly i don’t draw cats or anthro stuff usually so just having fun with this new learning process is the greatest advice i can offer!

In short, youtube tutorials are the grestest gift to free recources online and looking up “how to draw xyz” has never been easiet thanks to it!

#ramblings #art advice #i hope this was helpful #i always struggle with broad questions and end up being ultra psychological instead oof #haphazardly thrown together by LenierKa

[abimee]

hi i never send asks but i need to tell you how much your art means to me. i remember seeing it years ago when u were drawing ut/dr stuff and i loved it back then, but to come back years later and see youre into ffxiv is like, miraculous. i absolutely ADORE the way u stylize the characters, their stories seem so interesting, and its such a breath of fresh air to me, like straight up inspirational it makes me wanna go ham drawing my guys the way i want bc ive felt so self concious since most fanart i see sticks pretty close to the source. anyways keep doing what ur doing im /cheerjump'ing at you from the distance 💖

NO IM THE SAME WAY REAL getting into FFXIV after being into UT/DR had a long period of like embarassment following it because i wasnt used to being surrounded by artists who stayed pretty on model and like, didn't ''mess'' with the designs of both like specific characters and just general overall character types like m'iqote. Coming from UT/DR where the art style and the general ''theyre monsters'' gave me a lot of leeway to do stuff like anteater dreemmurs and draw frisk in a frilly flower pattern skirt, so coming over to draw ff14 art and never see people even like, give a character a haircut or draw elezen eyes slightly differently made me feel.... not scared, but i felt ambarassed that people wouldnt like my art or not recognize the characters, or find my art incoherent like a few people used to mock me for back in UT/DR days.

I eventually got over it but i still someyimes feel that shame, especially when the art isn't particularly well recieved, mostly with stuff like my butch menphina or how i draw hades, and i begin to wonder if my art would ''do better'' if i stuck closer to the style/design of the FF14 game down to the eye shape and exact clothing patterns

this isnt smthn i think about too often though thankfully, and i feel like a swell of love whenever people do react positively to how i interpret characters into my art :,] ive noticed a few people respond to really liking how i draw Zero even though i never considered her to differ far from her original design, but looking at it side by side i think i sometimes cant tell when im fucking with a design myself until i stare at them next to each other LOL

BUT GO FOR IT!!! there really is nobody stopping you from messing with the designs in the game, FF14 is a million dollar successful MMO ran by one of the biggest gaming companies in the industry so unless yoshida sends a cease and desist directly to our doors there is NOTHING stopping you from taking characters into your own hands and molding them to your liking. Draw Miqote looking even more like cats than people, draw vieras more anthro than humanoid, make your wol part sahagin and give them funny fish gills, give your favorite character a fatter head or a buzz cut, there is an endless possibility as vast as the people in the world are!!!! \o/

#cheerwaving and flower showering you anon i hope youre enjoying the game and having a lot of fun #:] its also really funny how many people from UT/DR days are now into ff14.... gravitate towards the funny mmo

[baby-xemnas]

i need to know your magic lawbepo brain interpretation on this....mink law and human bepo. (what mink is law?bepo's characteristics((hair color, eye color, beard no beard etc etc))? during mating season, does law have hea-🏃💨🚓🚓

girls i love you but how many times am i gonna answer this

you cant guess by me never drawing it ever that im not interested in swapping their races?

(and if i did, law would still be smaller than a human bepo and his ruts would be him fucking bepo to near death)

edit: you guys dont understand that im insane and for me making bepo humans feels like a betrayal. canon has him as a furry and a lot of fans have a problem with that so what am i gonna entertain a version of events in which he would be more acceptable? whats the point? canon he is an anthro and thats that.

edit 2: i get annoyed by this question im sorry if my response is too harsh. i'm just very protective of bepo as he is and him not being loved enough/taken seriously because he is a furry is a painful point - im here to appreciate him as he is
