#007 - #008 - #009 - The tails of the Squirtle line are made of sea foam, storing air for long dives. They prefer staying at shores and spraying water on random passersby for amusement.
Sponsored by @la-bruja. Design process under read more.
So for this line I had three main goals: 1. Add some more aquatic turtle anatomy on the line. 2. Make their shells based on sea shells, so that i can introduce the blastoise cannons as the shells openings, almost like a siphon. 3. the very popular "put that fur back into the blastoise.
So for my studies i started with studying both a turtle with flippers and one without, and then applying those on my squirtles to see which one worked best. To avoid overlap with the titouga line, I decided to go with the snaked neck turtle as inspiration, but i brought some of the pig nosed turtle's nose to the line because its cute
The tails turning into some sea foam-y subsance and the fur ending up looking more like gills came later, to tie down random parts of the design into a more water related theme, instead of it just being a water type because its a blue turtle. also it storing oxygen is a reference to turtles breathing outta their ass btw. they do that
The rest just came from me enjoying drawing turtles and making it as accurate as i could without losing the whimsy
Hello - this is Lulit, a protagonist in my current story project.
She is 13yo, she lives on a planet blighted by a deadly rainborne disease, and her birth was the result of a highly unethical scientific experiment. But she doesn't know that last part quite yet.
There's loads more I should have done to this portrait but I get bored after a while.
Bonus pic is Lulit's name written in her world's bridge language.
Just some more Igor art :>
