30 Days in Wildlife Drawings: Technically day 8

I've been keeping up with drawing one animal a day.
Till yesterday.
And I just haven't posted them here since all the peoples running around with sharp pencils are mostly on the Book of Face.

So here are some more drawings for my lovely readers, both of you. *laughs*

Day 6: Spirit Animal

I've had falcons in my dreams since I was a little girl. I used to have a lot more animals in my dreams, but sadly most of them no longer come around. I'm lucky if I dream of Kq!b' (Kyaba) or Ripley.

So here is my rendition of a Falcon.
I really really hate feathers.

Day 7: Roll a pair of dice (2 D6 for my gamer buddies) and draw a hybrid of the animals you drew for those two days. 

Of course I got Falcon Shark. 

This was the day I spent mulling over designs and didn't actually draw anything. I was really hoping for Owl Tanuki, but of course the freaking Shark has to eat all my happiness.

A big "THANK YOU" to Phaedra and Crystal, without whom Falcon Shark would never have gotten on paper.

Day 8: A Wildlife Creature whose call moves/effects you. 

I freaking love the sound of a chorus of Wolves. Yes, even after watching 'the Grey'. 

I'm actually really really proud of my Wolf. I honestly didn't think I would be able to draw her without her looking like a domesticated mutt. 

I love how it looks like she's singing. 

Später dann.

30 days in Wildlife Drawings: Days 4 & 5

Day 4 was actually really hard for me.
Draw the Weirdest Wildlife Creature you've ever seen.
I happen to think that a lot of the 'weird' creatures are actually quite adorable. For example the duck billed platypus, dumbo squid, and echidna didn't make the cut because they're too freaking cute. It took me a long time to finally decide on what I thought was the weirdest creature.
I decided on the Manatee.

Day 5 is: The animal that represents your favorite country. 

This was a toss up between Germany, Japan, and Russia. Germany was a big NOPE because it was a bird, after drawing the owl I have little desire to draw another feathery creature. Then Japan won because it's one of my favorite little things in the world. 

A Tanuki (Raccoon Dog)

Yay! I'm actually almost keeping up this time! 

If anyone wants to steal this 30 day challenge do it! 

See you tomorrow!

30 Days in Drawings: Day 3

Today is: Your favorite wildlife animal.

My favorite animals are, strangely, birds. Specifically birds of prey; aka raptors. Even more specifically, I love owls. I love them so much.
Ever since I was 9 I've been in love with owls. All of them. But there's a special place in my heart for the barn owl. They are too pretty.

They are also nearly impossible to draw with an open wing span. Maybe it's just me, but it took bloody forever and I don't think his wings look all that great.
In any case here's my Barn Owl.

Till tomorrow my friends!

30 days in wildlife drawings: day 2

Day 2 was technically yesterday.

After a 6 hour drive and some craziness upon arrival on base I was too tired to post. But I did manage to squeeze in a drawing.

Day 2 is the wildlife creature you're most frightened of.

I didn't use a reference photo, so this drawing is more my style. Which is more fun than realistic.

I'm terrified of sharks. They are the scariest thing in the world! I'm also not a big fan of swimming/large bodies of water where I can't move or fight or anything.

He kept trying to come out as a goldfish. Stupid shark. 

Till next time my lovelies, 

God is good; but don't dance in a small boat. 

30 days in wildlife drawings: day 1

My super radtastic friend Kai made up a 30 day drawing challenge for us to complete together. Since I've been in the dumps about Gawk's death and everything she'd thought it would help me out.

She's so right.

Day 1 (to which I will post a picture when I get hold of Jex's laptop)

We took a quiz to see what animal we were. This quiz to be exact http://www.serengetibook.com/your-safari/what-animal-am-i/quiz/

Apparently I'm a graceful Giraffe.
Man these animals are derpy looking. Just flipping through pictures of the creatures made me laugh. It was a good day.

You can see Kai's awesome art for day 1 here.

Come join us!
You don't have to draw realistic stuffs. You can draw cartoons or stickies if you feel so inclined.

Till next time my lovelies.
