I may also post some of my own art and photos here from time to time. :) But if you wish to view my work, please visit: Swandog@DeviantArt, Swandog@Furaffinity, or Swandog@Weasyl, thanks!

SO YOU WANNA DRAW CATS AND DOGS BUT THOSE PESKY SNOOTS GET IN THE WAY

Here’s a hopefully helpful tutorial on how to draw them from memory but it also helps to understand and break down how to see their structure when you use reference!

Remember, it’s always best to learn the anatomy of an animal first before trying to stylize it. This way you know the rules and can choose which ones to break!

Please do not repost this tutorial or any images from it. Permission will not be granted. You may post a link to this post instead to help spread it from the original source.

Hey all! I just wanted to mention that my Redbubble shop is now officially open for business! :D If you ever wanted a print (or shirt, mug, sticker, tote bag, phone case, or whatever) of my art, this is your chance to get it. If you don't see the specific image there that you wanted a print of, just let me know, and I'll see what I can do. :) Thanks for looking! <3

Santa is on strike due to global warming.  All presents this year will be delivered by Sasha the Christmas Tiger.  Milk and cookies may not be sufficient.

Spring Gathering Room Guardians are now SOLD!!

Cedar Waxwing, Spotted Bush Cat, and Pale Ash Fox

Go HERE

GOOD LUCK!

What is a Room Guardian??

Room Guardians are small creatures that protect one’s home from negative spirits and energies. These friends can be easily placed on window sills, kitchen shelves, dressers, or wherever to keep watch over the room. Each guardian has a soft faux fur coat and each is individually sculpted from the wire frame to the clay face and hands, so no two are alike. Room Guardians are not plush, they have a solid body but their arms, tails, and necks are bendable and Inside each of their chests is a unique crystal heart to give each one a different energy. These little guys have a lot of character and they love having a home to watch over.

Have a question??? See my FAQ

I know we’re all pretty down rn so here, have some cute pics of svalbard reindeer

it’s the smallest subspecies of reindeer on the planet and it loves you

the svalbard reindeer is also the northernmost herbivore in the world, and during winter they survive an average of −16°C (3°F) weather

look at those small fluffy ears and kind eyes, the reindeer is cheering you all on to stay strong in these trying times 

just like the arctic winter, this too shall pass

the svaldbard reindeer proves that even under the most extreme of circumstances, life finds a way. so please, please keep on fighting

Sorry for not updating much on here. I’m super busy with homework, but hopefully my illustration projects will be done soon so I can share them.

These are the fronts of a series of Valentine’s Day cards I’m making for my AdGraph class. I wanted to do LGBTQA+ cards since I never see any, but I also wanted to do deer puns, so here ya go. I call them my queer deer! My intention was to make stags for a gay guy couple, does for a lesbian couple, and fawns for a gender neutral couple. I hope you guys like them!

The peryton is a mythological creature resembling a deer with the wings and overall plumage of a bird. Sometimes perytons can have bird-like hind legs, but are often depicted as being entirely deer aside from the wings. Last image created by the talented Skallan of Deviantart.

Bird Costume Tutorial Masterpost

Here are a collection of tutorials explaining how I made my Kenku Costume. If you have more questions please check my Kenku Costume FAQ!

This costume is my Dungeons and Dragons character, Rue, who is a Kenku (bird person.) The Kenku are a monster race that became playable in 5th edition.

The photos in this post were taken by D. Davalos (flickr, twitter, instagram) at PAX West 2016. Saheeli Rai cosplayer (who is touching my head) is @ladymakeupsiren.
