Needle felt sheep for the christmas market
A lil felt sheep!!
I sold sheep like this along with some other stuff (coming soon) at a christmas market and people really liked them so im going to start selling various needle felts on etsy! I might put some original dinosaur felts up aswell simalar to the candycane Sinosauropterix i made a while back.
Now you too can have your very own little guy!!
a perspective on sonder
Sometimes, I wonder how one can be so close-minded. Selfish, even. Basking in the dying light of a summer evening, letting it wash over my face, I silently watch as one of my friends swats mindlessly at a small fly. It's small, harmless, but they smack it down without a second thought, and I can't help but wonder if that fly had a little family somewhere out there, waiting for it. A thought pops up in my bored mind: is this fly, probably not even able to fully grasp the concept of being alive let alone other living beings, even really conscious? My brows furrow when my companion kills it in one quick motion. It might be pretentious of me, yeah, sure. It's not like I've never done the same, but I do, just for a moment, feel sorry for the little life. Had its crime been invading personal space, or, as so many artificially empathetic ones have said before me, was it being small?
A campfire crackles in the distance with the people who lit it chatting cheerfully, sat around it. Slowly, I descend into the wild grass, stretching into it and feeling every little blade on my skin. What do I gain, pretending I care? Seeing beautiful, tall flowers freshly cut down by machinery, wondering whether they had wanted to keep on living for a reason other than pure instinct. They might not even have that, do they? I deeply mourn the loss of something unfamiliar, a stranger; something people consider a weed. So should I, and yet I don't. Maybe I do it to feel morally superior. Maybe I just want to elevate myself from the rest, pretend like I am in any way better. Neither of those reasons makes me any less selfish than my peers, whom I condescendingly looked down upon; rendering me the very person I tried so desperately not to be.
It is strange to think about the fact the lives not so far from mine can be so, so different. Really, it is pretty obvious, and yet I vividly remember seeing my neighbour in some odd place, breaking my perception of them as just my neighbour, something out of my field of vision, completely, forcing me to realize that they're so much more, have an own life, an own soul. A person that probably sees me as just their neighbour, like I did moments ago. It is apparent and logical, and yet I was, embarrassingly enough, never really aware of it. Sighing, I rise to my feet, grazing carefully on the lawn. The warm, salty breeze flows over from the sea and fills my lungs.. Soft waves crashing on the shore, I look over to my fellow sheep again, tormenting and being tormented by flies again.
And I wonder if humans would ever understand.
I've been trying to make myself finish a serious piece of art depicting a guy and it's been a struggle. Hopefully I'll finish it before going on vacation in August. Art doodles instead. #itsnothard #justkindofboring #theresalotlessyougettodesign #art #doodles #ink #sketch #sketches #pen #love #girl #sun #moon #sheep https://www.instagram.com/p/B0RFgTYprZ8/?igshid=19fwlpxso3gn4
Part 2 of interpreting my bro's ic here is Merchant he is just a guy who wander around being omnipresent and all that
So in canon he doesn't have pet sheep, but I gave him one because he reminded me of something and his normal blue coat in canon, also lamb have two heads because he is merchant who is collecting weird stuff all around, I made him into humanoid void because he would fall in that moster type in my lore, also the reason he is omnipresent is that he have pocket dimension he can travel around, don't know about limitations, this is just for fun, he was inspired by minecraft wandering trader
Also have small backstory, he is simple character, but I gave a bit depth because why not
the shepherd wanted to slaughter Punkin and Apple, but Merchant came at the right time, he beat shepherd up, stole his coat and the lamb
Done pretty much all, he is not good or bad he is in middle pretty much
Here is he in canon
Stinker with smile
Merchant (not mine)
Another sleepless night with you
Made drawing inspired by Mesmerizer but with my and bros ocs because I like them more and thought it would suit them in some way
Other versions of drawing
It's kinda weird putting these two in drawing inspired by that song, but I change context a bit so this is about Nightmare torturing this poor furry by giving him nightmares when he fall asleep, one if my favorite thing I drew in this is background, it's not complex, but it does have deeper meaning
King Nightmare
Nue crusty dusty furry (doesn't belongs to me)
Old character I redesigned (this big dragon)
Her name was Ruby, but I thought it's a bit stupid to call crystal dragon like that
Old picture is down and small explanation about her species
Wish I drew more pictures of her and Teo (her biological brother) she is important to him and he is important to her, they have strong bond and it's really goofy to me
Old design
Small thing about crystal dragons is that the larger the cave they live is the bigger they get
I didn't said it before, but not any weapon can pierce through dragon skin, for example kitchen knife or some sword, must be better or magic item, same goes with crystal dragons the thing is it's much harder to pierce through their skin we know why, but they still have weak spots just like any other dragon
Will draw them more, I need to
Teo (little guy at her sholders)
Crystal dragon (she doesn't have name yet)

so well made!
Phew. This one took, uh… a bit longer than expected due to other projects both irl and art-wise, but it’s finally here. The long-awaited domestic animal infographic! Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough space to cover every single domestic animal (I’m so sorry, reindeer and koi, my beloveds) but I tried to include as many of the “major ones” as possible.
I made this chart in response to a lot of the misunderstandings I hear concerning domestic animals, so I hope it’s helpful!
Further information I didn’t have any room to add or expand on:
🐈 “Breed” and “species” are not synonyms! Breeds are specific to domesticated animals. A Bengal Tiger is a species of tiger. A Siamese is a breed of domestic cat.
🐀 Different colors are also not what makes a breed. A breed is determined by having genetics that are unique to that breed. So a “bluenose pitbull” is not a different breed from a “rednose pitbull”, but an American Pitbull Terrier is a different breed from an American Bully! Animals that have been domesticated for longer tend to have more seperate breeds as these differing genetics have had time to develop.
🐕 It takes hundreds of generations for an animal to become domesticated. While the “domesticated fox experiment” had interesting results, there were not enough generations involved for the foxes to become truly domesticated and their differences from wild foxes were more due to epigenetics (heritable traits that do not change the DNA sequence but rather activate or deactivate parts of it; owed to the specific circumstances of its parents’ behavior and environment.)
🐎 Wild animals that are raised in human care are not domesticated, but they can be considered “tamed.” This means that they still have all their wild instincts, but are less inclined to attack or be frightened of humans. A wild animal that lives in the wild but near human settlements and is less afraid of humans is considered “habituated.” Tamed and habituated animals are not any less dangerous than wild animals, and should still be treated with the same respect. Foxes, otters, raccoons, servals, caracals, bush babies, opossums, owls, monkeys, alligators, and other wild animals can be tamed or habituated, but they have not undergone hundreds of generations of domestication, so they are not domesticated animals.
🐄 Also, as seen above, these animals have all been domesticated for a reason, be it food, transport, pest control, or otherwise, at a time when less practical options existed. There is no benefit to domesticating other species in the modern day, so if you’ve got a hankering for keeping a wild animal as a pet, instead try to find the domestic equivalent of that wild animal! There are several dog breeds that look and behave like wolves or foxes, pigeons and chickens can make great pet birds and have hundreds of colorful fancy breeds, rats can be just as intelligent and social as a small monkey (and less expensive and dangerous to boot,) and ferrets are pretty darn close to minks and otters! There’s no need to keep a wolf in a house when our ancestors have already spent 20,000+ years to make them house-compatible.
🐖 This was stated in the infographic, but I feel like I must again reiterate that domestic animals do not belong in the wild, and often become invasive when feral. Their genetics have been specifically altered in such a way that they depend on humans for optimal health. We are their habitat. This is why you only really see feral pigeons in cities, and feral cats around settlements. They are specifically adapted to live with humans, so they stay even when unwanted. However, this does not mean they should live in a way that doesn’t put their health and comfort as a top priority! If we are their world, it is our duty to make it as good as possible. Please research any pet you get before bringing them home!
