finally! this was a struggle. I haven't done that kind of digital processing for a while.. but after some endless tweaking it turned out like this. I hope you like it :3

maybe some of you already know that this #creature is a [Tar'nex], one of my #originalspecies.

also, this is a #pencil #drawing combined with digital colors and editing.

today I tried something else.. human. or close to human.
I am not happy with this one, but I'm gonna post it anyway bc Mastodon is the only platform where I feel comfortable enough to post almost anything. you people give me strength c:

I'll continue to learn human faces, so I'm better able to draw that one human-like species of my universe. and well, real humans.

trying to draw #Zhaikes (again).
I think I've sketched him like 20 times in the past few days x)

also, today my #copic refills arrived! and 2 more grey tones. now I have 5 copics in total, which is nice :}

remember when I talked about [Karyta]?
this one is an [#Arka]. they share a planet - one species living in the depths of the oceans and the other residing in the mountains of the land. Arka are the land people in case you're wondering ;)
bonus info: that planet is also where Ozyres come from.

if you want to see a full-body of these creatures: I did one some time ago (it's somewhere on the bottom of my media. I didn't use tags back then, sry).

something different today: me on a tree :}
I love nature and hiking. this was just a small trip through the park though. it is very close to where I live.

here are the noodles!
it's so many Ozys..

I've written a piece of lore on my DeviantArt in case you wanna read it. it's too many words for mastodon. (https://www.deviantart.com/kathaja/art/Ozyres-predators-of-Yr-takia-870672587)

I've spent it on another #noodle. :}

damn you Zhai.. why is it so difficult to draw you? D:
it's one of my OCs. Zhaikes. his species is called [Zhor Khat]. and I can't make him look like I see him in my mind.. very frustrating. but I will continue trying.

little creep :3 oh well, not actually little. the front part is about the size of a really big dog.

I have finally finished this one, but there are 2 more Ozys outlined on this sheet.

I think I accidentally locked my account for a while.. didn't realize until I got "follow requests" - which confused me a lot xD
interesting feature I didn't know about.

#wip of an [#Ozyres]. it's having lunch.

Ozyres have a #snake body like the [Karyta]. they are of the same home world, but Karyta are an intelligent species, where Ozyres are predatory creatures. when I'm finished with this, you will see how they look c:

desperate Ozy. or maybe sad?

I have realized, that I can get quite obsessed with my creatures. drawing one species over and over.. but it is so enjoyable. and addictive c:
