Why is it when I draw something cool it's at the edge of the paper-
Also, name reveal!
Just a lil updated design. Made him stand out more and cleaned up everything! Not sure on the name. Will it be the same? Or perhaps an alternate one.
Suggestions welcome!
Thank you @amanita-strange-and-true for voting for Oakie! This is a traditional piece we did together in an Entomology Club activity. The moth is a sphinx moth (family Sphingidae) :)
Here's a close-up:
And just for fun, we put a photo through an art filter:

Butterflies are basically just a subgroup of moths. I think we as a society need to appreciate moths more.
btw we as a society need to redeem the reputation of moths. Butterflies are seen as beautiful and beneficial and a normal thing to like, but moths are gross and creepy and ugly???
It's so dumb! Moths can be beautiful and colorful like butterflies can be and they are important pollinators! They visit flowers that bees ignore! Moths are a way larger and more diverse group than butterflies anyway!!

I need to make a reference sheet for them.
I was able to draw something! I’m much happier with how this looks like compared to the puff ball, plus it looks more like a moth

I think I'll do this thingy with Vaggie too. But later.
Me, to horny Val arts: I can milk you
I got commissioned to draw this by a friend and I can already feel all my sins crawling down my spine
DO YOU HAVE A FURSONAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Cause like I sawwwwwww you talking about furrys that would Be SO COOL . . .
I personally wouldn’t call myself a furry.
I technically did make up a fursona once-
I’m not really apart of that community myself, but I’ve looked into it before; both because I have been friends with people who were furries, and because I like looking into communities online for fun. That and when making an alien species - Furries can give you a surprising amount of good advice.
I made a fursona as a “what if” scenario once while watching some videos furry horror stories. (Made by furries - It wasn’t anti-furry content - It was just talking about some scary stuff that happened in the past like the patched stuffed animal fursuit guy.) I never did make an actual drawing of the fursona in question, but I did sketch it out once. It was a moth with a dark green color scheme and formal accessories if I recall correctly. I don’t think I’d ever make or get an actual fursuit of it, but designing one for fun was entertaining to me. (like deciding on what features to keep from the original animal, and what to change for that slightly cartoonish vibe fursuits/fursonas tend to have.)
Unfortunately, I don’t know where that sketch is though since that was a long while ago? If I find it I’ll post it I guess?
