Another Day Another Adventure For The Postwoman

Hakiri!! I haven't drawn any birdpeople in almost a year, it's nice to get back to them. The helmet design is subject to change, though - I might make it a little more Spartan in style. :-)

what are your thoughts on shrimp

Shrimp have a lot of personality, their little whiskers are nice. Only thing is they do skitter around alot which makes it hard to put them back in the sea if I accidentally catch them while crabbing. Their lack of pincers/general aggressiveness is definitely a plus because it makes it easier to hold them :)

My horrible son, Watama. He is a sophont living in a series of caves in a big colony along with other creatures of his species (not sure what I will call them yet) and technically he is a subtroglophile since his species has to leave the caves to get food etc (they are omnivores but eat lots of bugs. Yummy). His species is nocturnal, hence the big sad wet eyes. Also his species usually wears clothes of some sort since it's quite cold where they live, I just haven't drawn them yet. Watama is a male, but like the Kerilone who he is distantly related to, when he reaches a certain age and body fat percentage, he'll become a female, and get a lot larger and more sedentary, and lose the red pigmentation around his chest spiracles. This won't happen for him for a long while though, since he's pretty skinny for a whatever-he-is, although you can't tell because of his thick layer of plumulaceous feathers. He is quite a drab example of his species, but they aren't generally super colourful anyway - there's not much point if you live in a dark cave.

Ok, this is a bit random but I feel like doing a proper introduction, so here goes!

My name is Victor, and my URL is from Jules Verne because I really liked 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea (I love submarines). I do all my art on Procreate on a very old ipad, with my finger because I lost my ipad pencil long ago. I started off drawing on MSPaint, so I still draw on one layer with a square brush and get very paranoid about saving my drawings. My main interests outside of art are playing video games (ESPECIALLY TF2), Ancient Greek politics, fish and other sea life, and writing :-)

This year's worth of art

Chi Chuha. She is a very famous 'gladiator arena' fighter in PARADISO and also a bounty hunter who hunts down androids infected with the MourningChorus virus, and also livestreams it. This is her PARADISO form, but in reality she is a shy teenager who isn't particularly good at fighting and lives with her mum (and two pet rats), who has no idea who she is. She is way more confident in the virtual world. Also, she goes by the name "DOUBLECROSS" in PARADISO.

I have a name for this species now, they're called the Heriheri! This is Mitra, he's a different subspecies to Watama but they're both pretty similar. He is wearing a necklace of seed pods because they rattle, and that's useful since his job is feeding/sacrificing people to the Mother of the Deep, which is a massive blind cave creature a bit like an olm (she recognises the rattling sound and knows not to eat him). The long spines on his head can move, and he wiggles them about to show different emotions. They fall off every year and he grows new soft ones. Also, don't be fooled by Mitra's cute exterior and the fact that he's only about the size of a dog, this guy is Evil.
