Artificial Condition - Murderbot

Some friendly fire revenge of CherriLyme’s meerkat. Picked him cause I used to be obsessed with meerkats as a preteen. I finished the main drawing yesterday, but noticed earlier today that they had added that they’d like to see Thomas drawn being clumsy, and it honestly worked out in my favor cause I am not the best at drawing characters interacting with furniture and he’s a bit unbalanced in the main drawing.

The actually first piece of Murderbot fanart I ever made (over a year ago now). Drew this up immediately after finishing Network Effect fueled by queerplatonic Murderhelion feels.

So yes, this is technically ship art of a technologically advanced ship named ART and its security unit.

No, the binary does not mean anything.

Finally managed to draw a new portrait of myself. It took a lot of time and work to figure out, and I am very proud of how it turned out. I’m especially proud of how the sweater turned out; I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to replicate the pattern of one of my favorite tops.

Since, DeviantArt is just as terrible of an art market as ever, I’m putting these guys up for sale here as well.

I came across a tree that was just too pretty to not take some pictures of.

Something I drew forever and a day ago

A long while ago I had a dream about an anxious cat who worked as a professor at a mostly human college. After gaining a few more furry followers, I drudged up these drawingd of said cat, his kittens, and his ex/the other parent.

Some notes on this little family and the world they live in.

Cats in this universe look like cats in our world but with human-like intelligence, behavior, aging, and lifespans.

The cat to human ratio is about 1:9.

Cats are typically matrilineal and matrifocal. Things like surnames, property, and social status are traditionally inherited through one’s mother. Cats also tend to be closer to their maternal families than their paternal ones with it even being acceptable or expected for a cat to not know their father in many feline cultures.

Henry and Felicia had a family less conventionally. Henry was more ready to be a parent than Felicia, and after trying and failing to raise the kittens together, they broke up and agreed for him to take the kittens.

Tools, buildings, transportation, and so on exist specifically to accommodate cats, though how readily available and effective they are varies.

Cats only wear minimal clothes and accessories for aesthetic, professional, or ceremonial purposes. More extensive clothes are usually only worn to protect them from the elements.

Just like real cats, they can only eat meat, though some cats can also eat dairy.

Last night I had a dream about this cat who was a college professor of media studies. In the dream, he was freaking out because he’d misplaced his bus ticket, which he needed to get home to his two kids (he’s a single dad by the way), and was asking everyone he could for $20 to buy a new one.

Got no name for him yet, but my friends and I are workshopping one. Right now, I’m leaning towards Henry Calico.

Also, I’ve decided he’s now Alex and Zahra’s teacher. Yes, he is a teacher at a mostly human school.

A quick little drawing I did yesterday of cub Zira. I’ve decided to dive back into the fandom after dipping out shortly before The Lion Guard aired. The landscape of the fandom (and fandoms in general) has changed quite a bit since the mid 2010s, and I like what I see.

Also decided to play around with going with my own style over sticking to the Disney’s. The above eye shape I’ve switched to spots and made the ears vertical to better match real lions. I’m still tweaking how I want the ears, but otherwise, I’m happy with this one.

Had the lineart for this sitting in my iPad for several months and decided to just bite the bullet and complete it last week. Here be my current versions of Ahadi and Uru with their currently three kids, Mufasa, Taka, and Jamaa. (I’m on the fence about giving them more kids.) Given that he’s just a scruffier Mufasa, I decided to make Simba’s uncle from An Unusual Choir biologically related to him through Mufasa.

I’m also really in love with the idea of Ahadi having a bi-colored mane where at least one of the colors doesn’t match those of his sons. As for where Mufasa gets his red mane from, well Taka/Scar’s and Uru’s mane/tail tufts are actually an extremely dark and saturated red, so I figured Ahadi’s much lighter mane would give Mufasa his red one. Or maybe it’s a recessive trait on Uru’s side of the family. In some scans of The Brightest Star, Mohatu’s mane is reddish.

The green eyes and brown nose are definitely recessive traits from Uru.
