#oc: talon

[clovencraft]

⬆️ 2021 redesign ⬆️ vs ⬇️ 2009 original ⬇️

I created Talon at 13 years old— a time when my primary source of comfort was reading xenofiction. As I got older I was made to feel ashamed for it (cringe culture, among other things) and largely suppressed my interest in it. Still, it never really went away. In my late 20s I started actively giving myself permission to enjoy the things that made me a weird kid again. Stuff that never hurt anyone in the first place.

So, anyway, here’s my oldest warrior cat oc and her refurbishment, ~12 years apart. I can’t quite remember how I envisioned the original Talon, but it looks like I only ever drew her with a devious little grin. I wouldn’t be surprised if she was a loner or rogue that loved mocking the clan cats. She probably beat a few of them up, too.

When I reimagined Talon I only kept a pinch of that mischief. Now she’s more blunt and gruff, albeit maintaining some humor. She’s also huuuge, not just in fluff, but in stature and muscle as well. Her size alone tends to dissuade would-be attackers. Very helpful for a loner— especially one that doesn’t care for the company of toms. Conversely, she is something of a romantic when it comes to other mollies.

Her redesign is inspired by Norwegian Forest cats and Great Horned Owls. A nice glow-up, I think.

Going forward into more anthro territory, I think she’d make a cool knight. Or maybe a werecat.

#kirby #kirby oc #mienna #galacta knight #kirby galacta knight #miennagala #digital art #glitter in my ink #this is literally a coloured sketch (deeply sorry to inform) but it feels nice to skip lineart #like. i don't know WHAT clicked in me #but this is the result #i did this in a day and a half mind you #also gala's hands are peregrine falcon talons!! thought it'd be cool for someone birdlike like him to have claws somewhere #then there are all his feathers along his back. sort of to soothe the transition between skin and wing yk #feathered gala real. i love animal-coding characters with animal-esque traits!!! #AND AND. mienna with her hair down. for those who wondered what it'd look like. #ough. miennagala brainrot is SO real (for me) #and for those of you who watched the speedpaint under the cut. yeah!! this was fun for me but also strange but i loved this. #orange and blue contrast yummy...

Omg I saw cat talon colored and it jump scared me because I had been imagining him as a bald pink Sphinx…… his colories is so good tho….

HEE HEE he's not a sphynx! + if he was he'd be the grey black ones...he's a rumply cornish rex

with dis coloring specifically, but with discolored muzzle from old age

#skunk mail #faes-gay #i wouldve made him a sphynx but idk i have an oc who is a sphynx already #and she has fur universe accurate wig instead of actual hair #i wldnt want talon to be a sphynx with hair...i wanted him to have his own hair ykwim #cornish rexes have a bit of hair so it pleases me #he can have his actual thin hair and still be rumply and wrinkly
