This Butt Week doodle needs some explaining...

For the past year or so, I've kept seeing cute animal butts featured as fashion-forward designs - from this item I picked up in my Love Nikki tablet game, to this Neko Atsume phone charm at AnimeNEXT (yes I bought it and it's currently on my phone), to these cat butt coasters on Etsy, to this set of cat butt magnets, to merch from my fave webcomics artists.

It seems like animal butt motifs are on trend as the newest craze, bridging that fine line between adorable and edgy.

I decided, though, that there wasn't enough variety in the products offered. Where were the fish butts, the dragon butts, the bear butts? This note corrects that oversight.

This week's theme will be "Harry Potter Parodies."  First up is "Hufflepuff the Magic Dragon," a mashup of the classic children's song character and Luna Lovegood. (Yes, I know she's a Ravenclaw, but he is totally a Hufflepuff. Plus, she is the only one who would be able to see him, and I think they would be fast friends.)

Also, I've created a Facebook page for this blog.  View it here.

This was my response to Captain America: The Winter Soldier. 

A self-sufficient Pokémon. 

Here are a couple of old digital doodles I made for him.

Inspired by the camp song "You Can't Ride in My Little Red Wagon."

This doodle was partially inspired by World of Warcraft's interpretation of the Bavarian wolpertinger, a chimerical winged jackalope that can only be seen while drunk (and which for some reason is given dragon-type abilities in game, even though it is classified as a critter-type).

Up next is a series of notes depicting characters from a one-shot D&D campaign my husband ran (v3.5 for those of you to which that matters). 

First we have Meep, the kobald ranger/scout whose personal philosophy is "to eat a thing is to know a thing."  He wields battle-tongs in order to grab samples of new creatures to study (via eating).  Here we see him attempting to "study" a bronze dragon.  This ended about as well as you would imagine.

And now a return to notes that make sense...

This was a reference to something at the time, but it's been two years since I drew this and I have no idea why this was supposed to be funny.  Oh well, have a sleepy dragon, it's cute or something.
