#or mammals for that matter tho they probably do have some kind of teat or gland in the pouch for nourishing babby

updated from the (previous) (drawings)

i did not draw their actual reproductive situation cause i don’t feel like it but they’re a little weird i think lol

they live on a carbon world w/ a 10 bar atmosphere orbiting a brown dwarf of some kind?? instead of water their biochemistry uses liquid ammonia. or maybe they are just some funny hexapods with soft fur and horse ankles.

i did finally really cement some ideas with their aesthetic and also, not pictured, they live in dome shaped little houses with thick mud walls probably... good for windy

also i got rid of that weird breathing setup cause i didn’t like it. idk how they talk now but i’ll figure it out.
