Oh, to impress a dragon...!
I also give the Dragonriders of Pern credit for starting my artistic journey as a young teen. My stepfather had the entire collection (up to the masterharper) stored away in water damaged boxes. I remember having to carefully peel each page on some of those books... haha

Character Flaws... Anger.
She can't handle it when she has to bear the consequences of failure due to forces outside of her control. Especially when she tries so hard to do things correctly.
Oh for sure about the toes and squishing. That could add a lot of character to a walk cycle. This is all pretty rough for now though- i'm mainly trying to figure out how all the larger systems line up, like posture, leg positions through out the gait, angles of the bones, etc
Got any wisdom you might be able to share?

Hah! That's pretty darn close to how I imagined Lori to sound too. Mix Lyonne with Fran Drescher's queens accent and you've got it just right ๐คฃ

NOOOO! That one isn't for stunning!! ๐
Zap!

You've heard of Earthworm Jim... But what about Earthpig Kim?
Get it? Aardvark...
Thanks Oz!

I don't recall the exact article I read, but this would be a great starting point. phys.org/news/2026-02...
They link to a Nature article about their published research too. I'd check that out once the site starts responding again.
I wish I knew the secret...
Haha, i'm glad you like it! They're so fun to draw.
It's like a secret handshake at this point. Welcome to The Lodge, brother ๐
Sheep and those big dumb blocky snouts... <3
