wanna see a magic trick? 🪄🎩

#YEAYYYY i like drawing this guy #now that i think abt it i cant remember the last time i saw a furry with tattoos.... ive decided not to think too hard about how it would #work but i think i like the idea of him getting playing card tats on his ears would be cool ^_^ #apparently anthro species on furth include birds and mammals and i think fish amphibians and reptiles are non anthro #so instead of whipping out doves he would make white butterflies appear out of his hat :o) #its sort of meant to tie in with the ruffles on his shirt resembling a butterfly!!! i thought id make it close to a swallowtail so #that way its easy to see at a glance. i think that would look really cool irl #he looks a lot like joker p5 now that i look at it... it wasnt intentional but the red eyes and black messy hair is obvious huh #oh but the way his hair curls in the front isnt strictly in one direction just so that its easy to draw lol. its meant to curl around his #hat brim a little bc i thought it would look cool #my art #myart #my oc #oc #sleight #laika's comet #laika's comet oc #fan character #furry #furry art #fur

the realization that a 03 leosagi child could be a dragon-bunny hybrid hit me like a derailed freight train a few days ago

i do not know her name or anything else all i know is that her fam is as surprised and awed by her as i am

also that mikey needs a refresher on how biology works

#my art #tmnt #03 tmnt #tmnt leonardo #miyamoto usagi #tmnt leosagi #katanashipping #i love these dumb sword gays sm #here have a child #tmnt michelangelo #tmnt donatello #tmnt raphael #leo lays eggs every like idk 6mo to a year or so after hitting adulthood but no one ever thought any of them would or could be fertile #but don likes to study them sometimes cos yanno #theyre all living medical and biological mysteries #so any oportunity to learn anything at all is worth examining #and just this once #genetics leaned dragon rather than turtle #and while rabbit + turtle = nothing (cos reptiles and mammals) #dragons meanwhile are enough to make all known laws of logic and biology take a quick hike #so rabbit + dragon =????? #i dont intend to actually do anything with this idea i just wanted to draw what a rabbit dragon turtle might look like #also i have no idea how she stands or walks #not that she wouldnt be able to i just have no clue what itd look like #well when shes small shes prolly like the ferrets in the idw comic #but when shes grown???? idk man #does she slither? does she float? does her arms and legs start being like reasonably proportioned?.. #who knows!! u decide!!! #shed be such a cute and clumsy toddler tho #(maaay have watched too many @/leafystreet shorts abt his baby geckos. his lil 'hi! welcome to the world!' as they hatch fucking gets me ok

I think applying tropes commonly found in Sonadow fics to other sonic ships is very funny

Like today I saw the cute posts by Blu-ish about how hedgehogs circle and headbutt eachother when courting and how Sonic and Shadow would do that and I agree.

However I think the implication that mobian hedgehogs do this is HILARIOUS when applied to ships that only involve one hedgehog.

Like Silver starts circling around Espio one day and lightly shoving him with his hip or his shoulder and Espio is like: ???? What are you doing??

Or even Blazamy like- Amy keeps circling Blaze and the less Blaze reciprocates Amy does it more to try to get Blaze to react. Blaze eventually just tries to politely tell Amy to stop cause it’s hard to hold conversation while she’s moving all around.

But later Blaze talks to Silver and is like: “I have no idea what she is trying to do…perhaps she is finding a weakness in my stance? Should I fear her hunting me for sport???”

And Silver is like: uh. Well. I think she’s hitting on you? It’s a hedgehog thing.

And Blaze just freaks out because WHAT DO YOU MEAN AMY WAS FLIRTING WITH HER

#silver would hold that over Blazes head for way too long #cause for the FIRST TIME HE KNEW SOMTHING SHE DIDNT HAHAHA #honetsly another Sonadow trope that I think would be interesting to see with other ships is the paw thing? #like yes some Sonadow fics are very strange about it I’ll admit #BUT #I really like the idea that the gloves are a culture thing it’s just very fun to think of how mobian culture would differ from human culture #like ofc I’m an espilver trigger so my brain goes there like #I love the headcannon that Espio reads romance novels #but I also feel like on Mobius a lot of romance tropes would be things usually done by mammals #since just like in real life I headcannon that mammals are commonly seen as cuter than reptiles even in Sonics world #so Espio gets a little self conscious about such things (cuz he’s a teenager and worries a lot) #he doenst ahve soft fur to cuddle or ears to flick or paw pads #but I feel like if he were to show silver his hands silver would not even care about such things #because silver just loves Espio cuz he’s Espio #looking back on my tags and noticing typos is so embarrassing lmao #like uh I meant to write espilver truther above….not trigger #Aw well whatever #silver the hedgehog #sth #sonic the hedgehog #shadow the hedgehog #espio the chameleon #amy rose #espilver #sonadow #blaze the cat #blazamy

A pack of Dimetrodons just being Dimetrodons

#paleoart #Dimetrodon #permian #Paleozoic #look at that just guys being dudes #i made this because of how reptile like most art of em is when its believed these things were more like mammals #i went for a semi sorta mammal approach when drawing them so the poses are based on cats sorta #also the tiger stripes #orange looks so good on em why does everyone make em green #i think this looks incredibly natural to me which probably means im on the right track lol #dragon draws creatures

[bogcreacher]

Why do you call the dragons “horses?” /genq

funny :]

#To ME at least #also I think they kinda look like em. my dragons aren’t very good at being reptiles #I’m a mammal lover I know it’s boring but it’s my truth

[curiositypolling]

pls reblog for sample size etc

follow for more occasional useless polls :)

#polls #mammals #i picked mammals just to simplify it and cause fish would skew things and maybe reptiles too depending on area #also for better or worse mammals are seen as more….pitiable i guess? idk like humans tend to care more

[muttsandmustelidae]

garter snakes are so funny. theyre so spicy when they’re on the ground, then as soon as you pick them up they’re just 🧍

#get held idiot #local reptile doesn’t know how to react to being lifted gently by mammal with no desire to eat it #the babies especially are just like ‘what the hell is this situation i am in. baby snake programming did not prepare me for this’ #which is very handy when i have to relocate them out of dog territory

Another Sonic OC of mine

Ma Crocodile

This is Vector's mom, Victrola the Crocodile (but she insists everyone calls her Ma). She's the most Grandma-y old southern lady you will ever meet, an absolute sweetheart that can still put you in your place if need be. She raised Vector as a single mom, and absolutely adores her grandbabies (Espio and Charmy, and later Cream)

Fun facts:

Loves music

Carries her purse with her at all times (it has candy in it for her grandbabies)

Is very Pentecostal and will start praying over you in tongues if given half a chance

Makes Christmas gifts for the Chaotix every (including Knuckles, Mighty, and Ray)

Is the only person who has ever made Shadow the Hedgehog apologize (he almost sideswiped her on his motorcycle and she took her purse to him while lecturing him on manners. Once he said sorry, she gave him a piece of candy)

Close-ups:

#been meaning to posting this one for a while #also it is very hard to draw a female crocodile that doesn't look like Vector in drag🤦 #especially since they're reptiles not mammals #so the ladies don't have #yknow #chests #she shouldn't have hair either but i made an exception #sonic the hedgehog #sonic #sonic oc #oc #my oc stuff #victrola the crocodile #ma crocodile #the chaotix #team chaotix #vector the crocodile #sonic posting #send questions about her if you want #i love to talk about my OCs

I know I’m definitely a hater but I can’t stand when a character’s species is based off a bug or a fish and people give them paws and cat-like attributes.

#partially about that home of stuck fandom but I let it slide for the most part because some trolls ARE based of cats/mammals #but not EVERYTHING is a catgirl/boy!!! bug girls and fish boys exist too. along with reptiles n such as well. #also if it’s the fluff you like? bugs can be fuzzy!!!

[robbie-roo]

oooo ok I have an idea for my followers on Tumblr dot com >:) send me an animal- preferably a mammal, and I'll make a whole blog post about cool facts about them

like ok I don't think you guys understand how fun this is for me I fucking LOVE talking about animals if I could watch animal behavior all day every day I would do it in a heartbeat ill even make posts about common animals like dogs and cats throw em at me the weirder the better

#zoology #zoologist #animal facts #animals #special interest #mammals #mammalogy #mammal facts #i know stuff about some birds and reptiles too #i may need to do research on those guys though #but bro researching them is like a little treat #i know things about really exotic creatures too im ready for a challenge #holy fucking shit ask me about animals please oh my god #holy fuck #i also know some plant facts #not as many but i do have some diagnostic traits about around 180 different species and genera in north america #i know a lot about wine too #ask me about plants or animals omfg #plant facts

I’m not sure if I mentioned it on my other animal blog or here, I LOVE caterpillars, but the idea of touching one terrifies me! Even seeing pictures of other people handling harmless ones gives me the willies. Their spikes and fluff and warning colorations absolutely work on me, I don’t want to mess with them! Complete opposite of edible! Maybe I was a hungry predator in a past life who fucked around and found out?

Oddly enough, most venomous snakes are shaped like friends to me! I know better not to, but they look soooo touchable.

#ask #caterpillar #invertabrate #reptile #fluffy inverts are suspicious I have new world tarantulas and fluff is not for touching #fluff is ouch #looooove bees but they also are in the category of fluff equals ouch #if it’s not a mammal and is fluffy i assume urticating hairs #or a stinger somewhere #like velvet ants #which I LOVE #I am a huge invert lover don’t get me wrong #their defense mechanisms just work really well on me #if they say don’t touch me I believe them #I wish gaboon vipers were not venomous they look like such big fat babies #and I hear good things about them in venom labs #I want to squeeze their cheeks #my favorite snake species

dragon family tree. cladograms my beloved

#its not really realistic that a clade of non-generalist animals would diversify this much #and its definitely not realistic that theyd be able to hybridize #but hey. its dragons! #icewings are so so so fucked up tho there's no way to make them real animals #and ig in this world vertebrates are hexapodal originally instead of tetrapods #i like the idea of dragons being descended from non-mammal synapsids though. not reptiles but not mammals either! theyre their own thing #i also like the idea of nightwings being marrow eaters/scavengers and stopping bc it becomes impolite/gross in their culture #but then on the volcano they go back to it by necessity and it works for them #ALSO. if theres anything confusing here dont be afraid to send an ask i would love to explain my processes #wof #wings of fire #worldbuilding #wof worldbuilding #speculative biology #my art

do u think possums are cute?? my mom says that they're creepy and gross.......

show her a golden bushtail possum.......one of the cutest creature designs blessed upon this earth...

but, i suppose that won't warm her heart to the american opossum...let me peruse the images.....

i love the one going :P mlem........i have to say they are a lot scruffier and the bald fleshy tail is less appealing. you have to make a decision to love this guy. of course, i think theyre deserving of that love. rats are one of my favourite animals ever and they get called the same things...i can see the grossness and i absolve them of it.....but creepiness? rats are not remotely creepy to me but honestly i think opossums have untapped potential here. they deserve a horror movie. where they win and none of them die. unkillable beast.

sorry for rambling and dodging your question um i think they are in fact both of those things but a little cute also and also i think she is wrong for assumedly saying that with no respect for them or love in her heart. they are creepy in a good way. and lots of animals eat garbage if shes a dog person she has literally no room to speak

#i will defend most mammals in terms of cuteness i like anything i can theoretically pet #i am not very fond of reptiles...i think some fish are cute however... #birds im also ambivalent to #anon
