kine is based off mola mola sunfish, which are about 6ft in size!!therefore i raise you: mola mola sunbathing party!! (+ the slightly more realistic animal friends :DD)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
OKAY i did a lot of research on animals for this one!! feel free to read my notes under the cut 👇
Tumblr media
kine: is a mola mola/ocean sunfish, specifically from pacific waters! i'm in love with the idea of this six foot behemoth next to all the tiny creatures of dreamland, and as someone with a crippling obsession with fish, i had to draw him :] pacific mola molas match the distinctive petal-shaped clauvus (not a caudal fin!) that kine has, but don't have a lot of iconic lip action, which is why i tried to make it seem like a... discolored snout? molas are typically one color, and the blue color could seem natural from an angle, so let's pretend that real!kine just has lots of cool barnacles.
coo: is taken from @starflungwaddledee's dusky eagle owl notes! they literally look so much like coo it's insanee + i added the stripes to his wings. finding the bird-to-cartoon ratio was kinda hard actually 😭 birds are hard to draw what
rick: is based on a golden hamster (aka syrian hamster)!!! he's exactly the type of hamster you think of when you think of a normal hamster. golden hamsters are technically one of the largest hamsters, but still only stand at about 7 inches— so i decided to use his cartoon logic to keep him somewhat relative to coo
chuchu: SHE'S A FLAPJACK OCTOPUS SHE'S LITERALLY A FLAPJACK OCTOPUS!!!! scientists actually wanted to name the species "adorabilis" and just look them up please they're so cute!!! you can tell that DL3 character designers had flapjack octopi on their minds when they designed her. their fins look similar to a bow, and i obviously couldn't get rid of that, so i gave her both :]]
nago: is a calico cat. he's not overly cartoonish in his game design in regards to how he looks as a cat— he is undeniably a cat. i let my middle school warrior cats obsession take over for that one. calicos are almost always female, so i also raise you trans nago 🫶
pitch: resembles a warbling white eye, according to wikirby. i tend to draw him similar to one anyways, thanks to adeleine's slightly more realistic drawings in the DL3 credits. he's definitely also been sized up to fit in with the rest of the cast, since a 4-inch bird wouldn't exactly be visible.
thanks for listening to my rambles about animals!! i tried to keep a good mix between realism and video game designs just for kicks and giggles, hopefully it doesn't fall into a weird uncanny valley haha :] ✌️

Birds of Dor-lómin
I have decided to make two posts at least for the birds of Hithlum, this one and one for Mithrim and greater Hithlum
As I take inspiration from several European and Asian countries for the environment of Dor-lómin, the species here reflects that however to the best of my ability it is ecologically consistent. Obviously this will not be a complete list and I will go back to it!
And as always requests are open! I’m also always willing to put together ecological world building based on specific real locations!
Flora, fauna, geography and environment of Arda Masterlist
Note: I use Hadorian here to refer to the folk of Hador and of Marach including cultural practices that might predate Hador himself
The eastern mountains and forests around Húrin’s house: hazel grouse, brambling, northern wryneck, common buzzard, Zitting cisticola, grey headed woodpecker, black redstart, grey heron, common quail, great spotted woodpecker, dusky thrush, white winged crossbill, Bohemian waxwing, ring ouzel, tawny owl, common raven
The western border and Firth of Drengist: horned grebe, osprey, black crowned night heron, little gull, black tern, great white pelican, common kingfisher, common starling, little ringed plover, rocky pipit, white tailed eagle
Note: many of the mountain, sea and wetlands birds here are incidental species occurring in Dor-lómin because of migration or other factors. This is also true of some of the species listed for the eastern mountain borders.
The fields and open lands: Greylag goose, corn bunting, little owl, gadwall, mallard duck, wood lark, bearded reedling, hedge warbler, twite, common grasshopper warbler, yellowhammer, greater scaup (migratory), nightjar, stone curlew, barn owl, black headed bunting, whinchat, little grebe, goldfinch, blue throat
Throughout: common wood pigeon, fieldfare, hobby (migratory), common crane, mute swan, house sparrow, merlin, common buzzard (primarily in the Southern mountains), black woodpecker, gryphfalcon
World building notes:
-The people of Hador keep ducks, geese, chickens and pigeons including a species like passenger pigeons. They are the only group of Atani in Beleriand that has a practice of keeping birds primarily for eggs as well as meat and who uses eggs in cooking semi frequently. The Haladin, Bëorians, Drúedain and other groups do eat eggs though not usually chicken eggs and do not often use them as ingredients in baking (although there are some Bëorian dishes that involve bread with quail eggs)
Aerin and bird HCs
-Hadorian food is a combination of farming and agriculture and hunting and foraging. Grouse, pheasant and wild ducks are sometimes caught for food
-Sea birds are relatively rare but can be seen in western Dor-lómin near the Firth of Drengist and the border to Nevrast. The northern Sindar who live in western Hithlum including western Dor-lómin keep oral records of the presence and appearance of sea birds and mentions of them appear occasionally in song
-Feathers of geese are designs associated with the Hadorian midwinter festival. They are sometimes worn but more commonly embroidered or painted.
-The northern Sindar by the caves of Androth paint birds on the cave and cliff walls, using pigments made from minerals, bark and sometimes shells. Herons, gulls and starling shapes are the most common.
-Random character HC: Sador’s favorite animals to carve are birds especially ground birds. Some of these he even paints or polishes when he has the time.

I fell asleep sorry XD
Kay, here it is : the alts birb list
I decided to keep some hidden text to keep some suspense, but I think at this point they'll be easier to decode (they're all in order of eldest to youngest btw)
Gabriel - Harpy eagle-Gray hawk hybrid "Noah" - Dusky hawk Preacher - White-necked hawk Alt!Thatcher and ". . . ." - Golden pheasant Miss Faceless - White cockatoo Six/Stanley - Harpy eagle Alt!Cesar and ". . . ." - Raven-Gray hawk hybrid and White-tailed eagle N - Elf owl ??? - Golden eagle ??? - Golden eagle [MISSING] - Harpy eagle
I just wanted the last child to be the 12th and not the 10th , so boom, slightly older siblings exist that will play no role in the story because they're not in Gabe's custody anymore
LMAO the blurb at the bottom is so real. also THEY ALL LOOK SO SILLY!!!!!! omg i love them :DDDDD

okay nobody asked and this is incredibly niche but I saw someone else drew ga'hoole au vash and knives on twitter so here's my own trigun / guardians of ga'hoole au thoughts (triga'hoole? guardians of gunsmoke maybe? I dont think owls know what guns are idfk)
First off what owls what characters would be, my choices are mostly vibe/appearance based but theres some meaning to some of em Vash and Knives: barn owls. of course. generic protag owl but fitting in appearance anyway Wolfwood: stygian owl Meryl: some sort of scops owl? maybe cyprus scops owl? they're little guys and. scops. camera. you get it Milly: blakiston's fish owl Roberto: dusky eagle owl Livio / Razlo: snowy owl ill die on this hill Legato: lesser sooty owl (metalbeak / surtr was a greater sooty) Zazie: desert owl OR some sort of bay owl because those things are so bug-like to me Elendira: either ural owl or short eared owl, yknow, the same as otulissa in the movie, the really cunty one Midvalley: eastern screech owl E.G. Mine: laughing owl Monev: great grey owl? Leonof: northern white faced owl (old man energy) Dominique: spectacled owl Hoppered: madagascar owl Gray: well. hm. im not sure about that actually. bunch of pygmy owls? Rai-Dei: long-eared owl? not sure Caine: fearful owl Conrad: crested owl. bald ass head with white tufts on the sides Brad: pel's fishing owl Luida: northern hawk owl Rem: black banded owl maybe?
I imagine knives / the gung ho guns would be the pure ones? knives and legato would be the only tytos in that case but yknow what im sure theres symbolism to be had with that so fuck it we ball

The dusky eagle-owl is not deterred by daylight though is largely active at night emerging from its roost shortly before sunset. . . . #owls #owlsofinstagram #owlstagram #owlstagram_feature #owlsoftheday #owllovers #birdsofinstagram #birdsofindia #birdsphotography #birdsofindiansubcontinent #birdphotographersofindia #birding #naturegram #wildbirds #birdsphotography #best_birds_of_ig #biodiversity #conservation #rajasthantourism #weekendvibes #weekendgetaway #indiatravelgram #canonphotography #canonphoto . . . @canonindia_official @canonasia @unbiodiversity @incredibleindia @birdphotographers_of_india (at Keoladeo Ghana National Park Area, Bharatpur) https://www.instagram.com/p/CogdpH5Bo8J/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
