Maren, Lorna and Jovi

The long-legged species known as mythiks were the victors in a war against anthros, humans and their hybrid offspring.  The animals scattered (save a few who sided with the mythiks) and the humans died off.  In order to save the hybrid species from the anthros who would see them eliminated for the sake of the gene pool, the mythiks took control of the hybrid population.  Some owners are kinder or more abusive than others.

One hybrid in question, a horse named Lorna, was b...

Someone's Thinking Of Me

Having reached young adulthood (and probably her maximum height), Alena sets her sights on a grand quest.  Otherwise known as a shy homebody, the "younger" Newton twin intends to search Amphibia for rare and fascinating tomes with which to fill the shelves of the severely lacking Wartwood Library (they have like one copy of Hop On Pop and Sylvia Sundew always has it checked out).  But Alena also has an ulterior motive for her journey: she vows to find out the truth of what happened ...

Kisses For Lorna

If you've been with me for a while you know I've done this pose before, but does it ever really get old?  Here we have more of Liz's mythiks and hybrids: mythik girlfriends Jovi and Maren, and their horse hybrid Lorna.  They're a throuple!

Junior

"One day you will wield Stabhammer, my girl, but it will not make you a warrior..."

General Lisska's spouses didn't want to keep Stabhammer, citing they would not be compelled to remember their wife as a newt who lusted for war.  It was too nice a weapon to leave lying around in the Sands, so Yunan kept it.  Some time later, Yunan promised Stabhammer to her daughter Marcy Jr., though the tiny mudpuppy would have to get much stronger before she could properly control such a mig...

Dinner With Fiends

In which Mum dresses us up in color coordinated madness to go suffer through an event to which she doesn't want to go.  You know, family stuff!  Methinks m'lady doth protest too much.

The twins are maybe nine or ten here.  And yes, this does imply that Ivy and Sprig got to making froglets asap.  Why would they wait?  

Also, don't feel too bad for Yunan.  She may have to wear a salmon-pink ascot but at least she gets a gourmet meal out of it!  I'm...

The Bees Envy Me

Ace is a working hornet.  He has a job to do around the Newton homestead and he is not a fuzzy housepet.  Despite this, he will put up with a lot from Alena.  She is his queen and there's no shame in his protec game.

Long-time-coming Patreon reward for Nutjob.  PS, Olivia hand-made that Crumpet the Frog doll for Alena.  Not too shabby!

Eri and Nissa

And now for something completely different!

Liz is working on a new story and I'm helping where I can.  On some far away world, tall and horned creatures called mythiks defeated anthros, humans and their half-human offspring (hybrids) in an ancient war.  Triumphant alongside a few anthro species that sided with them, mythiks became the dominant species.  The remaining anthros scattered to the winds, humans became urban legends and the hybrids were made to live in servitud...

Preggy Sue

Sorry, I tried to name this pic something else but could not, lol

Comes a point in the narrative where Piggy Sue agrees to be a surrogate for Itzel and Cass, who want to have a baby.  This is very cute and delightful, but it's also the major blowout that Piggy Sue and Clem experience in their relationship.  For one thing, Piggy Sue volunteered her womb before discussing the matter with her partner.  Furthermore, Clem is very afraid of something going wrong; Piggy Sue coul...

What Sharp Teeth You Have, Cadet

I was sure I already posted this one, but something on Patreon's side malfunctioned.  So here we go again.

Look Well, Look Well, O Newts

Yan would rather drink a beer than win father of the year.  Baby Yunan's first words, I presume, were "this fuckin' guy".

Some have asked me if Yunan had a second parent.  Yan originally fed his daughter a line that the noble Lady Longclaw died tragically in childbirth.  When Yunan didn't buy that, Yan doubled back and stated that her hussy mother threw the baby at him and told them both to go kick rocks.  If he can be believed at all, I'm leaning towards the latter....

"Go get 'er, tiger."

Report for headcanon, cadets!  Back in the good old days, Miss Olivia was King Andrias's little pal.  He doted on her as a child and thinks her romance with this (then-seemingly) random foot soldier is adorable.  So once in a while he abuses his power to excuse the hapless recruit from training, allowing Olivia and Yunan to go on dates.  Ahoy!  Shipper on deck!  Consider rank pulled, Sgt. Lisska. 

Yunan should probably be a b...

Some call it BeeBee Sue.  I low key ship it.  Slap slap kiss.

A few have asked me about BeeBee's sexuality.  I believe she falls into the category that I'm seeing more and more often amongst older, heretofore-presumed-het ladies: man, woman, other, who cares, but morons who need babysitting need not apply.

Thanks For Making Me A Fighter

Here we have Kae's take on another canon character, as well as a full-on OC.  Not a nextgen, not a parent, but a donut steel.  Because WE ARE NEVER GETTING OUT OF HERE.

Captain Grime was a famously brutal battle toad, but he joined our heroes in defeating King Andrias and has cast off his former proclivity for nasty not-niceness.  Now an active contributor to peaceful amphibian society, he teaches the youngsters how to defend themselves and the town from bandits and ne'er...

Best Friends Squad

So this part is canon: in the basement of Newtopia Castle is an underground ecosystem/dungeon that holds a bunch of alien fauna stolen from conquered planets by King Andrias's family.  Our girl Lady Olivia used to sneak down to the catacombs as a child because t'was forbidden and she was a little troll.  Thereby when she and Yunan go skulking about in the catacombs later in the show, they don't get eaten by monsters.

Here's where Kae chimes in.  King Andrias is no sane ma...

So it's Take Your Eft To Meet Their Future Employer Day and Lady Alena is presenting her daughter to King Andrias.  For all his less savory qualities, the big guy does have a soft spot for kids, and is promptly charmed by little baby-lady Olivia.  As well he should be.  10/10 I would k!ll everyone in Newtopia and myself for Smolivia.  

I won't say Lady Alena was a mean mother, but she was very strict and strictly business.  Furthermore she intentionally bred for...

Get In, Loser, We're Committing Treason

Not just being needlessly edgy (well, maybe a little edgy).

This somehow happened at work, in ballpoint pen on a blotter page.  I was then compelled to bring it home and provide it with ALL the airbrushing.  As per the norm, no research went into drawing Liv's dress, lol.  Spoilers for the canon, I guess?  But it wrapped like a year ago, so go nuts.
