Slobbery Mangy Stupid Poachers

some 'yeens!

I'm doing some fiddling with Virgil's design and character. Been thinking of "upgrading" him to a cave hyena (Ice Age spotted hyena), an animal that's long extinct in our world. Which is just as well, because fossil evidence shows it definitely fed on early humans. And lions. And bears. Oh my!

Virgil's subspecies is much bigger and stronger than his modern day counterparts, we can see how fucknormous he really is paired against the decently-sized spot...

The Big Bad Cat's an Act

Dom! >:3 I've been sitting on this character for a whileeeee

Dominick is a vague expy of Chad, who longtime followers may remember as a peculiar hentai joke I made once and then didn't really ever touch on again. Poor Chad deserved better. In Fuzzbutts he is reborn, because I've always liked the idea of an intelligent, handsome, confident guy who's just a little bit unhi...

Tadeo Take Twooooo

edit: damn my fickle heart! decided to give him a lil tuft of hair~

I felt Tadeo's first design felt a bit too "animal in a wig", so I nixed his hair. Now he and Priscilla get to bond over their extensive wig collections. Have a lil doodle dump about Fuzzbutts' resident weirdo!

Talk Nerdy to Ya

Priscilla:

So this is our Fuzzbutts expy of Twaddles! Here he goes by Tadeo, and as for species, well, he's a tapir (Tapirus bairdii). 

Tadeo works at Priscilla's beauty salon as her loyal assistant stylist. Sure his clumsy hooves sometimes fumble expensive supplies, and sure he constantly talks the ears off anybody nearby, but for all his obsessive otaku wa...

Concept Art: Skye's Sibbies

a quick design pass for Skye's siblings, cuz yanno, Fuzzbutts doesn't have enough dog characters

Skye Shepherd is the youngest pup out of a litter of five. Their family, the Shepherd family, is a long-established pack of down-home country herding dogs. The Shepherds own a small farm that's home to the best strawberry patches in all of Dogma County (or so they claim). Skye had a fairly idyllic childhood living in the peaceful countryside, yet left home as soon as she could becau...

Valentine's Day Requests?

Happy early Valentine's Day! Tomorrow I'll be pretty busy with work errands, but the day is still young today. I think I can squeeze out a V-Day doodle or two. So tell me, what would you guys like to see? Your request can be as specific or general as you like. Can involve romantic love, platonic love, familial love, etc- so long as it features somebody lovin' on somebody. I'd prefer if we kept it to MLP/Pandoraverse this round, but you can request whatever you want, really. So what do y'all w...

Brilliant, My Boy!

"I always knew our oversized heads housed oversized brains!"

I got the job, guys. :) I was actually hired on the spot at my first interview, signed my contract the same day. Finally, a career in the field I actually got my degree in! Very grateful! Very nervous! Very excited! 

I've found myself in a pony-ish mood lately, so I'll probably be throwing out some pandoraverse/MLP drawings. This here was an editing exercise/me wanting to know what Montezuma would look like...

Sunny Skies (WIPs)

Requests are being worked on! Just feeling guilty over not posting in a while, so have some wips in the meantime. I sincerely apologize for the lull lately. I'm undergoing some life changes right now that've left me completely mentally exhausted, as though someone scooped out all my creative mojo and replaced it with old molasses. I'm certain it'll clear up soon- so in the meantime, I humbly ask you guys to bear with me a little longer, and I thank you for the support you've already provided....

Requests Open!

Howdy all. :) Think I've hit a bit of a creative snag lately. So I'm taking drawing requests! Can be anything you'd like. Can be Fuzzbutts, MLP, Pandoraverse, more niche fandoms you've seen me draw before (eg. Moomins, Aggretsuko, Pokemon, Adventure Time, Sonic The Hedgehog, etc).....anything, really. Any request at all, as specific or general as you'd like. Feel free to suggest more than one!

I originally didn't post the attached story for this because I could never get it to feel right, and by now a few things in it are outdated. Bruce of course is no longer a wallaby, and while he's still a professor/doctoral student, he now studies biology instead of botany. Still, I gave the story a read-through ...

I asked y'all what species you thought I should use for my planned conspiracy theorist character and "aye-aye" (Daubentonia madagascariensis) really seemed to be the popular choice! I dig it, those long spindly fingers and huge eyes are a perfect fit.

Brainstorming: Species Help

Howdy all! I’ve got a Fuzzbutts character coming up that’s an outspoken conspiracy theorist. What do y’all think her species should be? I’m imagining a more unusual, perhaps obscure sort of animal, maybe one with wide googley eyes. Of course, I’ll be considering all suggestions. :3 What kind of animal would you pick for a kooky conspiracy nut?

Happy New Year, everyone. :) I hope 2022 is treating y'all well~ 

I'd like to apologize for the lack of posts this week, I've been going through a health situation that's had me feeling pretty lethargic. I ultimately drove myself to Urgent Care late last night for kidney pain (not fun! I don't recommend! Always get someone else to drive you, kids!). Fortunately all the lab tests (infection-elevated white blood cell count, nitrates, ketones, diabetes, etc) came back negative, but I ...

Savannah Snarly-Face

design exploration for Savannah, since her's was bugging me. Still figuring it out! Definitely still getting the hang of drawing her. I removed her 2007 scene kid hair and replaced it with the typical silly hyena onion head. Like all striped hyenas, Vanna has a giant glam rock mane and it's pretty emotive. When she's relaxed, her mane lies flat and sleek against her neck. When indignant, flustered, or just plain irate, she does that Hayao Miyazaki anime angry hair bristle. It's completely inv...

drawing vicariously again, wishing i lived somewhere with an actual winter season

Perry's been a tricky character to design, but I think I've finally locked him down. He's a eurasian lynx, meaning every year he trades out his short trim summer coat for a pale, mega fluffy winter one. Lynx fur is extraordinarily plush and warm and can fetch a pretty penny! Cold-blooded animals-reptiles especially- quite enjoy luxurious furs to keep warm in the winter months, turning the material into coa...

FB: Care Bear, Scare Bear

The word 'bear' does not refer to the actual animal. Instead, the word originates from the term for "brown" or "wild animal", with the most accurate translation of bear being "the brown one". Ancient humans used this euphemistic expression out of fear that speaking the animal's true name might cause it to appear. Thus the word "bear" is thought to be the oldest known euphemism in human history.
