a couple of commission sketches, and new OC design stuff! all the OC design stuff is subject to change
the lineup of four OCs are me exploring a new indeterminate furry species that came about from a dream i had where i was (or the main character was?) the tiny shaved critter with the dragon feet and a gold prosthetic right hand that she could manipulate the shape of with psychic powers or something. the dream started before she got her gold hand, with some fuzzy but traumatizing event (wherein she could only remember vaguely that she had her hand lopped off and then mind-magic killed the man who took her hand), she got inexplicably dropped with a bleeding stump and without most of her memories into a world with these faun-like people. despite the faun-ish folk having wildly varying physical traits among their many races, she got instantly shunned by most of the faun folk as demonic and unnatural, since she has multiple traits of legendary demons in their folklore including five fingers hands, horns coming from the forehead rather than the higher skull plates the faun-folks' horns grow from, reptilian features, and double pupils in her eyes. she was accepted by a small fold of faun folk and given medical attention, including the golden hand (which has 4 digits because they didn't have any prosthetics with five). three faun folk in the inn she was lodged at took her under their wings and into their healing poly relationship. i made this dream entity and her partners into characters to the best of my memory! i couldn't remember much about what the gfs looked like except there was one Huge gf who was like twice the demony girl's height and there was a trans gf as well
sorry about the crude censorship on the lineup sheet btw asdfasd i didn't want to dedicate an entire nsfw-friendly-tiers post to an unfinished character sheet - but if i finish it incl a nakie version i'll post it there!
the final two images are me exploring the faun-ish species more and applying it to new characters. more gays happened, surprise surprise! these ones are somewhat based on deeply personal feelings i have about characters and ships i had been attached to as a young queer teen figuring myself out, that now i understand deserve better than their (problematic, garbage) series could give them. some of their traits and relationship dynamics are inspired by these feelings of attachment. i don't feel comfortable elaborating on their origins further than that, but, behold! coping characters!
