My entry for the GalaxysCutest contest by CLIP STUDIO PAINT I haven’t done any character design for a while, so I’ve decided to play with it a bit. Let me tell you what I had in mind!
I’ve decided to mix some symbols/themes from Korean and Japanese culture, so we have there a tiger (what is South Korea national animal), a japanese macaque and a samurai. But it’s not just an ordinary samurai.
He is intergalactic explorer, who always travel with his macaque companion to conduct research on organisms from other planets. He’s super friendly and love to draw, and it’s why he always document his discoveries by doing drawings and sketches on his tablet. It usually attracts a lot of creatures from the local planet, what make the traveller very content… Unless the creature is not that friendly. Fortunately in this case they met some kind, flying beings!
Here’s drawing I created for 23rd CSP contest. It was quite challenging for various reasons, but mainly because I almost never draw backgrounds, especially interiors. If you want to see some close-ups, check out my instagram
Pet poster ordered by Chocosart, her friends’s beautiful dog Byron!
I had a lot of fun while working on this one, borzois are really good looking dogs. What’s your favourite dog breed?
Btw guys, art print preorder is open and there are three new designs available! If you’re interested check out the FORM(please read all the informations!)
Today is International Stiped Burrito Day. If you’ve been here for a while you probably know that tigers are my favourite animals, so here are some drawings to celebrate.
I would love to know which one of these is your favourite, let me know in the comments!
Three random facts just for fun: -tigers have the ability to make a wide variety of vocalizations. They use them depending on the disctance and the context. For example, they roar typically to attract attention/inform other tigers about their presence and location. Mothers moans often to their young to get them follow their directions. Chuff is “hello there pal, it’s good to see you” and is usually accompanied with the head bobbing movement (so sweet) and so on, so forth.They have very rich language!
-tigers belongs to a group of “umbrella species”, what means that they pay a key role in the ecosystem. By protecting them, we indirectly protects the many other species and their natural habitats
-do you know that silly looking, wide smile with tongue out? This behavior is called flehmen. They do it to earn fragrance informations by using Jacobson’s organ.
