no idea if this is in the right section ahhhh

*just adding the LF Digital Artist to title* N-Now I'm even more unsure if this is in the right section

So it's 2:30 AM when I get an idea for a new species. What do I do? Immediately sit up and sketch it, of course. Afterwards, I feel rather pleased with my creation and wonder, "Would other people like this?" What do I do next? Make this thread, of course.

Ehehe, so yeah. These are the two little sketchies I came up with!


They don't have a name yet :c I do have a few ideas for their behaviors and such, however!

- They're a pack mammal with no alpha pair. The females have less fluff and do most of the hunting/foraging while the males stay at the dens and care for the pups.
- They're omnivores. They eat berries, insects, and the occasional small rodent.
- Guards stand up on their back legs to "watch" over the pack and use their tail for extra balance.
- They communicate with clicks. They have enhanced hearing and smell due to their lack of eyes.*
*As they somewhat resemble bats, I was considering giving them echolocation rather than enhanced hearing and smell....Or a combination of both! Let me know what you think!

Please fill out the following form to let me know what you think!

1) Any changes you would make? (Tell me here what you think of the whole echolocation vs enhanced senses!)
2) Would you buy one and how much would you pay?
3) If you're a digital artist, would you consider doing the lineart of these little guys if I do end up making them an adoptable/closed/whateverwordiscorrecthere species? (You would get a share of the profits, of course!)

Artists who'd like to do the lineart of this species are free to draw them as examples! I just ask that if you do draw them, do not sell the art you do of them c: It's not a requirement that you post a drawing of them in your style, however! If you'd rather show me various art that you've done in the past, that's quite alright, too!<3

THE NAME HAS BEEN CHOSEN!
*hallelujah plays softly in the background*
The name for this new species is...Amicaeus! It was suggested by Emmon (#37702)! It is a mix of the Latin words for "blind" and "friend," which I just absolutely love~<3

I know that feel ;w; I tried to digitize one of my sketches earlier, and it took me forever to get it to look decent OTL

Haha, bodies are a pain! xD Anatomy and such kills me, especially with animals. I can do a chibi human with ease, however, eheheh~

Dude I love the little pups by the way, they're so fluffy and adorable it just makes me wanna hoard these creatures more than I already want to. xD
And perhaps one day we'll be good at digitizing things, or just get a tablet. ^^

Eheheh, thank you~ Honestly, I wasn't sure what to do with the pups, so I just decided they could be little sheep xD Just picture two of those little fluffballs playing together, aaahhhh~ That's what I daydreamed about today in class.

Yes, our wishes will come true eventually! ;u;

I honestly had to look twice at that picture for a moment and was like "Holy crap... those things are sheep!!! ( •̀ᄇ• ́)ﻭ✧
At this point I don't even care if it's digital or not, I just really like the species since it's unique and cute.

Yeah I'm pretty sure they're called emoticons. I think.

Oh and the male reminds me of a gooey glazed donut with sprinkles. xD
(Maybe it's just me craving donuts though... >~<)

Hnnngh donuts are like the glazed, doughy halos of angels. Amazing. *w*

And now that I look at him, he reminds me of donut, too xD

They really are. I've always wondered why they were named donuts though, I'm just too lazy to actually read the wiki about it. xD

I was going to read about them and then post my magnificent findings for you so you know as well, but I am way too lazy to read it when I actually look at it now. xD

Oh my god, Syii, that is adorable! ;w; I definitely love your style!

Unfortunately, I still haven't decided on whether or not to make this an actual species yet OTL
