A young black Yokoshin (Kitsune fox alien) with four tails. He has bright splatters all over his dark punk clothes. He just tagged his name on the wall behind him with spraypaint. He's wearing a respirator to protect from the fumes of his medium and has a sash full of other spraypaint colors at his waist.

Hey everyone! I recently adopted a puppy that was abandoned and have been working to ensure she's in good health, so I made a couple of dog-themed character adoptables in her honor!

Both are available for purchase in my Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/feligriffin/...

Have a good one!

Here's a cutie patootie! Another commission from Mheelu, this time of their character May-bee!

As a great enjoyer of Otome games she now has to put her skills to the test, winning irl heart points with the legendary Ren-tir! Or... perhaps his deamon alter-ego Alastair?

A little Beeple (bee-person) is happily enjoying a dating sim game on her mobile console. She blushes and kicks her feet in delight as she gains a heart point! She has a couple more games queued up next from her bag.

I totally forgot to post this fancy man! May I present to you, Huafo Fuolong (eastern dragon man) and the Honorable Yunbao (Draconic rabbit)

This was a commission from a friend of one of his upcoming dnd characters! I love being challenged to go all-out.
A dark red Eastern dragon man with a long tail stands majestically in front of a circular window in his opulent house. With a cane in his hand, fine clothes draping from his body, and rare pet on his shoulder he carries the same demeanor of a king.

Researchers in Hong Kong developed a nasal spray for rapid stroke intervention. The system uses nanotechnology to deliver neuroprotective drugs directly to the brain and reduce neuronal damage during the emergency stage.

I'm getting real tired of hearing all the ways Trump is desecrating the American wilderness for the sake of politics.
Trump admin wants to push bison from public lands in Montana. What to know
The proposal would force a non-profit to move hundreds of bison from Montana's grasslands.

Did you know if you see something beautiful it's not because it's beautiful but because you've set aside space within yourself for recognizing beautiful things. That's pretty dang hopeful.

recent commission for @zanahawk.bsky.social ! thanks again for commissioning me, i had so much fun with these two <33

#ocsky #brart #ttrpg #ocart #commission
Image shows two red panda-like warriors in battle stances. One of them is standing straight up, with golden fur, pink eyes, a red tunic with just one sleeve and holding a ceremonial staff. The other one is crouching down, with purple-grey fur, icy blue eyes, blue clothing with leather armor on top of it and two kukris. Both of their tailtips and ears show some kind of mist flowing out of them, of the exact same color of their eyes.

I had a hard week of doing complicated things that broke me out of my habitual patterns and stretched me beyond capacity, but I saw that the people in my life really stepped up in meaningful ways to fill in the gaps. And let me tell you, that made me feel really loved.

When I learned about how the Nazis came to power in Germany I was relieved to think that the nation I was not under threat of that kind of influence. Now we are.

Due process breaks down in the face of ICE. They threaten everyone's rights.

#StateBird #StarWarsPhoenixResistance #Colorado #Bunting
A lark bunting, state bird of Colorado, stretches its wings in a circle reminiscent of a symbol of the resistance from Star Wars. There is a columbine, state flower of Colorado, above its head and the C of the colorado state flag on its back.

This is a $75 commission for Mheelu's character Vega! She's so cute, thank you for giving me artistic freedom to design her an outfit! You can see Mheelu's Deviantart page here:

#Alien #Bunny #Anthro #Starchild #SpaceshipsandStarwyrms
An alien with the appearance of an anthropomorphized rabbit. She has white fur and dresses in soft pastel clothes with a black collar. While she was drinking her chocolate milk, she accidentally stepped on one of her floor-length ears. Her antennae search wildly in the air to help her get her balance as the eye on her ear winces in pain.
