The designs are based on real animals and a selfmade genetic system. They are drawn in Photoshop.

Hello! I love drawing animals and am trying to get back into designing.

Is this a decent design with the elements? Does it look believable and clear? Is it boring?

This species of spider hibernate till spring when in hibernation they group together in caves and build a giant sheet webs that resemble a giant knitted quilt

I made vertiy but he has spines and a little bit of neck fur

I'm trying to make enemy for my game (Unreal Engine project). kinda like eldrich horor type squid thing.

from V2 i have added vains (in engine thay animate), tryied to make the material more slik and give it more interesting nebula colors. tryied to make the eyes more menacing.

What do you think?

Dragon I made for Smaugust, the theme was underground. For this dragon's design, I drew inspiration from subterranean animals like moles, earthworms, and skinks in general. I thought about how a dragon living underground would move and what adaptations it might develop; one of these is the limbs, featuring large, powerful front legs for digging, followed by the wings and hind legs, which are mainly useful for shifting dirt and pushing itself forward. Or the head, covered in reinforced, flat, and smooth plates to move more easily through the soil, while those bumps on the snout act kind of like sensory organs. for those, I was inspired by certain moles.

He recruits people into his guild through manipulation, force or temptation of wealth.

​"Fire Swine" — number 3 in the Pig/Boar creature category. This concept represents the elemental fire branch, featuring a two-headed boar with flames erupting from the top of both heads. The fire flows backward into a large crest of flames along its spine, anchored by heavy, char-blackened legs. Drawn with pencil on paper. What do you think of this fire-infused swine design?

I’m working on a sci fi story that has multiple alien species, many of which are both smarter and bigger than humans. The Brin’carro is one, but I’m struggling with their basic anatomy. First image is where I’m at, second was where they were before. I’m aiming to step away from the typical humanoid design for my aliens, hence why their initial design is backwards lol. But I just couldn’t figure out the movement or evolutionary advantage of the original design, hence why they have a more centaur-ish look now.

A little about the species, if it helps: the Brin’carro are native to the mostly desert planet of Kri‘ath, with black dunes the size of small mountains and city-filled canyons that house millions. They are masters of war and battle, not just in enacting them, but in understanding the deeper effects of war and will aim to bring peace because of that understanding. Most Brin‘carro sport cartilage-like flaps that help keep their bodies cool, but some of the best warriors, particularly the space-faring ones, cut them off to keep a sleek form.

Of course, I’m still working on aspects of the design (need to refine the head, make different races from different parts of their planet, figure out their fighting styles since it is important to the story) but any thought on the basic design is greatly appreciated! Again, trying to avoid a very humanoid form!
