Do I Really Need To Say More???

character up top is named willow (hes a cowboy/pirate in another universe but a selkie in this one)

i have like no proper sketches of this bc it’s difficult to draw but ive been figuring out selkies in my fantasy world. So far ive decided that they turn their skin into a cocoon within which they transform between human/seal. And going with the classic wearing their skin as a coat or clothing item bc its fun and fresh.

Solitary species, women notably larger than men (based on leopard seals). Each individual has their own unique pattern (like a fingerprint) that stays on their fur when they change into a human form. Their size as a seal is also the exact same weight and whatnot as when in human form, so it transfers over evenly.

Also some cultural shit where selkies are considered good luck and fisherman/sailors avoid messing with selkies to avoid bad luck + getting killed, but others who aren’t familiar with them occasionally try and steal their furs (very strong and protective material that also happens to be pretty).

They mingle among humans in order to steal fish from fishermen usually. Fishermen let it slide bc selkies are useful and can find fish schools easily + avoid bad weather.

little iris doodle from yesterday(?) ignore the large ominous entity in the bg.

Beings born of rotten blood 🍄🩸

hello tumblr ive realized i suddenly have multiple things to post. here are some of my recent highlights from my figure drawing class.

i will post the worldbuilding stuff i worked in today later.,., at some point.

selkie posting hours. updated my selkie lore and came up with this design (don’t remember what the old lore was exactly but now the typical form for a selkie is a seal or this freak and a proper human disguise is much more difficult)

colored one is like.,. the first or second sketch so its a bit rough. but anyway ive been trying to improve my humanoid designs and integrate human and nonhuman features better and i like how these guys look. if i could fuck up the body proportions even more it would be fire.

feat. me trying to figure out how willow, my one confirmed selkie character would look in this form (very difficult his features do not mesh at all). also feat a radon fairy glenn drawing.
