Aaaaargh I just can't get this 2nd tusk right!!!😤😖 Don't be fooled my inactivity here lately is not because I'm not doing stuff, but because I AM doing stuff! 😉here's a #wip of a #creaturedesign I've kept on to since like 2009. It's called the Tu'duun (because of the sound it makes "galloping"). It's essentially a mix between an #elephant and a #horse Watch out for more updates coming later this week😊 . . . . #art #sketch #sketchbook #creature #animal #animalart #fantasyanimal #fantasybiology #artistsofinstagram #instaart #instaartist #anatomy #drawing #pencildrawing #pencilart #lineart #personalproject #worldbuilding

Here's another creature of mine, the PinPin. The PinPin is a timid animal living in herds that brows the seasonal plains and bushlands of their dry home controlled by a short rainy season and a long dry season. They're mammals, but their body plan is more similar to large ground dwelling birds than conventinal mammals. . . . . . #creature #creaturedesign #creaturedesigner #fantasycreature #fantasyanimal #drawing #sketch #sketchbook #pencilsketch #artist #artistsoninstagram #artistofinstagram #worldbuilding #fantasybeast #art

Here's a creature I've kept for so many years! It doesn't have a species name, but this family of dangerous reptiles are called viri [vee-ree]. Two first images are recent from a test to redesign the basic viri design. I still have some work to do to make the physiology to work, but i'm getting there😄 3rd picture is the first time drawing it back in 2011 or 2012, and the 4th pic is the plasticine model that started it. It's been re-worked a couple of times and had some material and design added to it, but it's still the same model. It must be from 2010-2011 or so! #creaturedesign #creaturedesigner #throwback #throwbackthursday #reptile #reptiledesign #reptilecreature #reptilemonster #apexpredator #fantasyanimal #fantasycreature #animaldesign #worldbuilding #worldbuilder #worldbuilders #creature #conceptualart #conceptart #fantasyzoology #art #artistsoninstagram #artist #artistofinstagram #penciledrawing #sketch #sketchbook #blackandwhite #drawing #penciledrawing #plasticine #moldingclay #figure #plasticinemodel #conceptmodel

First entry of the year! This cat like creature is called a Jahor. It's a big, cunning ambush predator said to be smarter than some people! They have powerful front limbs used for climbing, breaking the back or neck of smaller prey, and wrestling large prey to the ground so it can use its deadly accuracy and 5 inch canines to deliver the fatal blow. Jahor social structures are complicated, but males seem to govern large territories overlapping several female territories. Cubs stay within the mother's territory until they're 2 years of age before they split up to find their own place in the world. Largely solitary, they have been seen working together and even hunting for each other in times of need. . . . #creature #creaturedesign #conceptart #worldbuilding #art #sketch #penciledrawing #sketchbook #artistsoninstagram #artistofinstagram #fantasyanimal #animal #animaldesign #creatureart #creaturedesigner #artist #firstpostoftheyear #creatuanary
