Poster style thing that I planned to finish at beginning of January but decided to go a little more ambitious. Sizes of these characters are not accurate, changed them for the effect. Since I came back to posting on social media in 2022 with some significant improvement in creative drive and regained passion for art, I managed to share some of my reworked creatures and brand new ones. Im fond of them all, but Runhirs, Skelmir and (still unnamed) pale beast helped me initiate the Etharus project. This piece is kind of tribute to them. Runhir characters: Syeran and Vahr.

A work in progress... I finally got around to updating Phoenix's visual design. The 2011 version I included is pretty dated. I still like how its tail burns my eyes to dust if I look at it for more than 5 seconds though. I want to keep that but also expand her eyeburning repertoire and maybe even give her 1 more human form design since she IS supposed to have a ton. I would include native form variants like... piebald and stuff; even for Griffin I thought a melanistic or golden form would be cute, but man is it a lot of work and not top priority either. Suffice it to say, they have more range than what I depict. We'll see how much energy I'll have - I'm on the fence about drawing her fave human form for the sheet because I have recent examples of it. I've been putting off updating her self-roasting turkey form because... well look at it Anyway, now I can say "I have a tentacle cock monster mural on my acid trip chicken's ref sheet"
UPDATE
March 15, 2025 - Turquoise Dacnis (Dacnis hartlaubi) Found only in Colombia, these birds in the tanager family live in and around mountain forests and in cocoa and shade coffee plantations. They eat fruit, arthropods, and nectar, foraging alone or in groups, sometimes with other species. Very little is known about their breeding behavior, though a male in breeding condition was found in August and a nest was found in an acacia with two fledglings in March. They are classified as Near Threatened by the IUCN due to suspected population declines from ongoing habitat loss.
