hellooooo ive made a uc fankid oc <3 more about her under the cut, so that this post isnt a mile long <3
her name is Dyllin, because i had to, and shes SO cute. Shes got a little lopsided grin, and one dimple, and the cutest smattering of freckles on her nose right where her fur starts to turn pink. Both Rian and Atty are trans, so they raised her gender neutrally until she could tell them who she was herself (thus atty using they for her in that one art), and when she was about 3 she said she was a girl and now she wears all the pretty flowy dresses she can get her hands on (uncle foq supplies many of them)!
in the art above shes: 14, 16 (colored in), 19? (lines), ambiguous age younger than 3, 5?, and also 5. I think that ill mainly draw her as a little kid or around 14, cause those ages are where more interesting dynamics happen with people. Lots of funny kiddy moments, and growing into your own person moments. Which! is what im about in fankids! beyond just drawing a cute kid and having fun with design (which im also all about but just to give an explaination for why im drawing her at those ages). I dont think i want to go into adult ages for her yet, cause for the moment its about her being a fankid for me.
She takes after Chet and mostly Foq much more in personality than either of her actual parents, so shes a very carefree happy-go-lucky kid. To Rian's absolute horror (see below, for their rage at finding out), Foq flounces his way into being a archfey and becomes her warlock patron when shes a little kid, but its alright Aunt Scenda is her cleric deity so shes got a balance for his chaos! (she doesnt balance shit but it does make rian not kill foq over the pact so! whatever works!)
I pull out so many random facts about the making of Lord of the Rings that people usually respond with, 'how do you even know that?!'
oh, friend.
my brother, a most pretentious lotr fan, snatched up the extended edition hot off the shelf and for weeks it was the only thing on the tv all day long. I've seen every commentary, every special feature . . . twice. maybe more. I didn't have a choice.
here is the girls lazily swimming around. can you see why skippy's swooping freaks me out? she does it EVERY time she tries swimming with her tail instead of paddling around with her pectorals. like why are you worse at swimming than a RANCHU? she is also still getting bumps on her tail and occasional faint redness near her peduncle. idk man.
(( I know I seldom draw them or draw angles where you can see them, but it is SO charming and silly to me that Miranda actually has pretty large back feet. To the point of, when I do draw them, I worry that people will think she’s digitigrade.
But no!! She’s not!! She’s fully plantigrade!! She just got silly flipper feet, like a crocodile or a penguin!! They’re even webbed too!!
NOT ME WANTING TO WRITE DARKLAW AGAIN.............. i still haven't had the opportunity since her side blog hasn't attracted much attention but i kind of. love her so much.
