Sept Bonus: A Cass Act

Itzel's main squeeze was a very close second for this month's poll, and I've wanted to divulge more of this lovely sloth lady's story to you folks. So let's do the TIMELINE again! If I haven't mentioned, Cass is currently in her mid thirties, making her a decade or so younger than Itzel.

Slothling Cass: Cassandra Beauregard was born in Australia to a sloth mum (Mickey) and a platypus dad (Cyril). Fun fact: baby sloths in our world are born with strong, sharp teeth and claws, as well ...

Sept Special: Piggy Grew

Behold as Piggy Sue's life flashes before your very eyes! It does go without saying that our porcine pal is still more or less a youngblood today, but I didn't want to cheat her out of her allotted amount of drawings, so I split up her adulthood between 20s and 30s. And yes, Piggy Sue's mane is naturally curly; she straightens it and intermittently dyes it pink.

Piglet Piggy Sue: This little piggy was the sweet apple of Sam and Piggy Lee's collective eye. Life was roses for a bit, bu...

You Can Take Me HOT TO GO

The Clemster and The Divine Ms. Strawson get a case of happy hooves that a sun shower can't cool down. Granted I'm not really into that baby gay pop music the kids are shuffle dancing to these days...even though it's admittedly kinda catchy...and it's totally on Piggy Sue brand...oh shit fine play it loud.

What's it take to get your number?
What's it take to bring you home?
Hurry up, it's time for supper
Order up, I'm hot to go! 2024-09-05 22:36:49 +0000 UTC View Post

September Special: I <3 Age Progressions

Our special illustration in September shall be, by my decree, another age progression! Because it pleases me to do so! Seriously, these things are fun and educational. This will be limited to characters older than 30 so I can actually get some evolution out of them. Pick the character that peaks your interest the most! I already did Valerie, if you'll recall.

Short Stories: The Elephant In The Room

Eventually the denizens of MacKenzie House get comfortable enough with each other that they're game to share their culinary skills. We appreciate you pointing out the food poisoning in the room, Ike, but keep noodling that nose in your housemates' personal space like that and you'll be eating PB and Js for the foreseeable future.

And since we're indulging in realistic elephant factoids today, peanuts are not, in fact, a natural part of a pachyderm's diet. This myth stems from the fa...

Short Stories: Piggy Sue And Clem And That Scrumpet Huxley

In which an angry, horny Piggy Sue anticipates Clem incriminating herself in the throes of passion. She's kind of disappointed when Clem is all "less is more", as is her default.

Piggy Sue and Clem have always been the copacetic couple, but I'd love for someone to point out a pairing that has zero hurdles they need to clear so they can make their relationship stronger. In fact, don't do that, because that hypothetical couple is boring.

It may seem like I'm really hammering on ...

They Are Not Long, The Days Of Swine And Roses

At one point in the proceedings, Clem's first love, Huxley, starts snuffling around. Clem is delighted to catch up with her dear old friend from Camp Hillbottom, though Piggy Sue is put off her waffles by the impeccable peccary's near-seamless fit into Clem's story.

No, Huxley will not be written as a villain (too easy), but this turn of events will prove to plumb the depths of Piggy Sue's jealousy and insecurities, as well as Clem's passivity and inscrutability.

Seeing Red

Guard your women and children well,
Send these bastards back to hell
We'll teach them the ways of war
And they won't come here any more
Use your shield and use your head,
Fight 'til everyone is dead
Raise the flag up to the sky,
How many of them can we make die?

Even after she's healed, Red is still struggling to cope with her perceived weakness after being attacked in her parking lot. Icy is trying to help in the way that she knows how, but really my dude, you mig...

Mal And Val

You're all a bunch of furries (yes, even you) so you know very well that the snow leopard is the only big cat that cannot roar. Unfortunately it seems that tragedy meister Valerie does NOT know this fun factoid, so enter vocal coach Mal. Val hasn't got a clue, but sister, Mal will make a cat out of you!

Warm-up sketch that ended up with color on it. Mal and Topher appear courtesy of Lopoddity. They're everything, Kae is just Kae (but I'm Kae-nough).

Dance On Air

For those who haven't heard, I had to say goodbye to my beloved black cat Luca last night. He was elderly and had cancer, and we decided it was the kindest option. He's gone to join Volta and Soni, the other heart cats of my life that I've loved and lost. Even Espresso showed up to greet him!

Look at these ornery rascals. Heaven is in for some shit.

The Year Of Our Boar 2024

As of 2024, these are canon birthdays of the WwF main cast, if I were to freeze the action and decide the story is a period piece that doesn't exist in Perpetual Simpsons Time. This is for my reference and food for thought. Get your astrological predictions ready! EDIT: I already messed up and inverted the dates of Alsesta and Icy's birthdays. Sorry, fixed!

Piggy Sue: September 23, 1991

Clem: July 1, 1975

Broken Kink Repaired

Hi! It was brought to my attention that a lot of my older Mature art (particularly the JG stuff) was incorrectly labeled, and inaccessible to the $5 tier. Not sure how I missed that, but it should all be properly accessible now. If you find anything else around here that's off kilter, please don't hesitate to tell me.

Draw Me Like One Of Your Feral Girls

This was an exercise to see how many of the gang I could draw as /animals/ with as little photo reference as possible. If someone tells you to draw an elephant without reference, say no. Also if anyone tells you to draw an elephant, say no.

TOADALLY WILD FACTOIDS: Red river hogs are not as big as this, but they do have unique, long snouts. Also the sows of this species do not have visible tusks. But this IS Red we're talking about, and she's so butch she chews Harley tire rubber ins...

Short Stories: Heidi And Sharlene

Rippy the goblin shark goes chomp chomp chomp. The bully-twerp alliances trope is firmly within my wheelhouse, if I may say so myself.

Based on a conversation with Asuraludu. Heidi the precious hermit crab baby belongs to Badguy and Owl. And yes, Sharlene has hair...messy hair.

Bonus: Every Day I'm Throuplin'

I thought the WwF Humanization Furry Con Challenge was going to be more difficult. It actually wasn't. This trio of homosapien babes sprang fully formed from my forehead like three Athenas who sleep with each other.

My guess is Kittiwake was all jazzed to go to the con and dressed it up as "let's take our child to a fun thing, it'll be fun!" sort of deal. Miles is happy just to be here with his moms...but it's Val who surprises me, finding more mirth in the furriment than she anticip...

I was inspired by another artist on FA and I am hereby STEALING their idea. Yoink! I would like to draw the human versions of some WwF characters (as they occur in my mind theoretically), attending a furry con and showing off their fursona badges! It's good practice for Kae to occasionally draw humans, theoretical or otherwise, so choose who you'd like to see! I'm leaving off Itzel, Mantiski and Agnes for now because I've already drawn them as humans and I feel like I slayed it the first ...

Once a close family member asked me to just be their friend. That hit me so hard in the feels I went through a fence in the neighbor's yard. It's one thing to love someone, and another thing to really like them, too, for who they are and the happiness they bring you.

OK, maybe BeeBee's a LITTLE soft. Barbara knows how it goes. It runs in the family, after all....
