Working on a new drawing of Kess and Mir going for a run, and I’m debating on having Ferris struggling to keep up far in the background.
Also, I used photos of deer running as a reference for their poses, and I think it looks good

Tazralian Pokédex Entry #1: HAKIWI
Tumblr media
Hakiwi; the Flame Dance Pokémon
————————
From the notes of Prof. Jake Conifer:
Hakiwi, when in the wild, are highly social Pokémon. They form close bonds with other Hakiwi of similar size and age, and with these bonded companions, they participate in ritual dances and can be seen trading their fiery twigs as a gesture of eternal companionship.
When in the company of a trainer, they continue to form such bonds, but rather than trading twigs to show their companionship, it seems they will instead rely on their ritual dances and have taken to tending their trainer’s campfire with dutiful care and loyalty.
————————
Tumblr media
From the notes of Prof. Jenny Conifer:
Wild Hakiwi are fiercely protective Pokémon, who will defend bonded companions with blazing kicks and dizzying speed. Their loyalty to their kin has marked them as the Tazralian symbol of a happy home, and many houses boast totems of these Pokémon beside the door. They are also very inquisitive Pokémon, and will happily explore their environment, even occasionally getting themselves into a bit of mischief here and there.
Captive Hakiwi are just as protective of their trainers, if not even more so, due to an apparent understanding that their trainer does not possess the same abilities to defend themselves. These Pokémon will risk their lives with incredible determination to protect their trainer from any and all threats. As well, they are still just as inquisitive, and they will actively follow their trainer everywhere and even try to mimic their trainer’s behavior, as well as those of other Pokémon in their trainer’s party, most likely because they may think of it as a way of bonding with their new ‘flock’.
————————
From the notes of Prof. Jamie Conifer:
Wild Hakiwi are nocturnal and sleep in underground dens during the day with at least a dozen of their fellows. When disturbed, they will all set themselves ablaze before running away into deeper tunnels. While fiercely protective of their kin, they prefer to reserve their energy in the daytime and avoid most conflict unless necessary.
Captive Hakiwi adapt their sleeping habits to match those of their trainer, finding comfort in sleeping together, only waking to diligently tend the campfire or defend their trainer from danger. When woken by a threat, they will first wake their trainer and subsequently try to lead them to safety, only fighting if all else fails.

Final colors done— Not bad for a self-taught animator! 24fps in roughanimator and colored in Procreate. Next is to add shading and background elements.

Tried to branch out by doing a painterly approach, using one brush in Procreate (spectra) and just a bit of the water reflection brush.
As for Bruce meeting the Megalodon— a scarred, grizzled matriarch of an age gone— it might be a biiiit awkward considering that it’s been speculated that great white sharks indirectly CAUSED the extinction of the Megalodon. Oops…

Update: The Taxxon is named Ssyarassil, and is honestly an idiot. Shall we say the.. Moon Moon of Taxxons, really.
Also, new art of Tak will be coming soon. And maybe some more Andalites.
Tumblr media
I made some Animorphs art! Featuring Tak the Hork-Bajir, and.. I don’t have a name for that Taxxon yet. They’re both Controllers, but Tak will get free and be happy.

Just posting a collection of all the Andalite specific art I’ve done so far. Really, I realize I’ve been focusing the most on Kess and Mir.
I have other Andalite ocs besides just them. They just have such a great dynamic with each other, and with their human boyfriend Ferris.. I love to explore them and their interactions.
But I also have Kalevhim, Issakar, Yorinil, and the little baby Isari. I need to explore all of them more too. Especially Kalevhim and Isari.

The Question:

The Answer:

Who is the bigger spoon? Another human? A red-tailed hawk taking up half the bed? A Taxxon? The possibilities are endless!

<What.. are you wearing..?> Kess could only stare in a mix of confusion and concern at his ever-constant companion. Mir, however, was unperturbed by his skepticism, rearing back on his hind legs as he held his arms wide.
<I have created the fashions!>
<Oh.. Right.>
————————————
Figured it was time to actually draw a little scene with these boys, and write a little.. excerpt of sorts. Enjoy!

“Ha! I still can’t believe aliens actually exist!”
<You seem very excited by that fact.> Kess replied.
“Well, duh! Why wouldn’t I be? You guys just proved all of my childhood fantasies right! Or- most of them, at least.” I had spent so much of my life believing in aliens. I’d been told off and called weird as a kid for it. Not to mention every scientific magazine I tried to write to had always rejected me, but then I’d met Kess and Mir. Well, their full names are Kessimir-Reiigal-Ilvaros, and Mirkavos-Hestraanil-Kistriil. Ain’t that a mouthful. Now you see why I just call them Kess and Mir. And I guess Kess is some sort of prince or something? Mir has called him ‘War-Prince Kessimir’ before, or something like that.
Anyway, the two were keeping pretty close to each other, maybe having some kind of private conversation between them, but I just saw it as an opportunity. Pushing my way between them, I threw my arms around their waists, a big stupid grin on my face.
“This, gentlemen, is a fantastic new opportunity for me- er, us.” As I pulled them a bit closer, Mir seemed delighted by the interaction, and excited to know what I meant by an opportunity. He leaned into me a bit, smiling with his eyes even as his glasses nearly slipped off his face. Kess was a lot less thrilled, as he pulled back a bit from my attempt at an embrace, even taking a small step backward. And he’d arched his tail over his back, ready to strike me down if he had to with that wicked blade of his.
<I disagree. Whatever you’re thinking, my answer is no.> Kess gave an annoyed huff through his nose as he spoke, or thought-spoke rather. It’s how these guys communicate. <We’re trying to lay low, rather than broadcast our existence to the entire planet. Do you not even realize the risks?>
<Kessi, there’s no risk if we are staying put.> Mir countered, cheerful as ever. <At least let Ferris tell his plan before rejecting it, yes?>
Tada! Kess, Ferris, and Mir! Finally I have these three in a picture together. Also, would anyone be interested if I wrote my own sort of.. Animorphs spin-off (maybe a series) that centered on these three, and maybe some of my other ocs?
Please let me know in the inbox if you’re interested, and I can direct you from there to my writing blog where I’d likely post the chapters.

Skull
Any zoologists or biologists (amateur or professional, or in-between) wanna try to identify what kind of creature this skull might belong to? :D

About a week’s worth of nonstop work, and Bruce’s gallop cycle is finally done!
Rough animation and tie-down done in the RoughAnimator app; clean-up and coloring done in the Procreate app

Tie-down is done; I’m going to fix a few things before final inking but this is a good stopping point for today
I bumped up the frame-rate to 24fps, which is what most Disney and other professional animation studios use.

So excited to see Halle Bailey as Ariel! Not so excited to see another movie with a vilified shark (in the shipwreck scene). I think that we, as a society, have moved past the need for shark villains.
But luckily that can be easily remedied! Bruce is a friendly shark— and mermaids are part fish, after all!
Process: Procreate, four days:

All right, ladies and gents and non-binary friends! The fact of the matter is, I’m currently struggling to make ends meet. I’m not going to lie about that. I have little to no money except the bare minimum that I can keep after rent and other expenses, and it’s hardly enough for groceries. Now, I’m not going to let it keep me down, but I am going to look to you guys, to the people of Tumblr, and anyone else who comes by my blog whether by recommendation or otherwise, for a little help while I try to get my life in order.
So, yes. I am opening up my commissions in their fullest extent, and hopefully something comes of it! So, let’s get it all laid out.
