Sketchbook (PAGE 3)

Petra the civet kinda steals the show here. I was still exploring her as a character and trying to get inside her head. We have the initial sketches for "Coffee and Wifi", which I intended as a pun on Blur's "Coffee and TV" and the song fits the mood I was going for pretty well.

I've lived with recurrent depression since I was about 12 years old, and at the time of drawing this I was going into a fairly severe and lengthy struggle with it. Some of this is just my brain's natural tendencies, and some of it was learning lessons about investing too much into toxic relationships. I don't like using the word "toxic" because it's annoyingly vague and dismissive, but in this case I think it fits just fine. Vent art doesn't generally give me a lot of satisfaction, but Petra proved to be a pretty good conduit, insofar as I'd allow her to be.

Soft forms and some great breast squishing! I also see some of that hedgehog gal!

Yeah, it might not be “curable”, but it’s very treatable. (Also I confused Petra with Mazia, whoops)

Toxic is the worst... unless you're the one dishing it out x3 Love open jackets and I have a few such Juno sketches that I may get around to finishing.

I've been asked by a furry publisher if I was interested in such a project... so this may happen!

It's meant the world to me to know I'm not alone in this. Hearing that others have long-term depression, and that life goes on, has been intensely normalizing. It really doesn't have to determine my fate.

Very cool to see! Bring back the viverrid girl gang 😛.

Love these!!

So many incredible little sketches and poses! I always appreciate the open jacket design I can see on the top left. Sorry to hear you’ve dealt with that since you were young. Although, when I see the word toxic, I think of pokemon and the frustrations of getting poisoned.

Very nice work. I enjoy seeing your sketches

Kiko

lovely sketches! You ever planning to make an art book like Scale did with his book?

Marie The Foxy

Petra’s my favorite character of yours, so I love seeing more art of her! I absolutely relate to you with chronic depression - it’s a lot to work with and can feel like it’s not getting better.
