Mlem

In about ten seconds these two are going to be sharing a lot more than tongue.

Social insights, maybe, or cookie recipes. Possibly painting techniques I dunno. Gonna colour this now.

Beautiful work, Freckles.

@olliecanal.bsky.social Oct 4, 2026, 10:48 PM

Excellent work, great lines, and amazing detail. The feathers and scales are very good.

Thanks buddy! You couldn't pay me a higher compliment, because those covers are what got me started.

ZE3T (the 3 is silent) is an otter being prepped for the uplifting process. He's an ancestor of the lutrai, a more fully-humanoid otter species. Wanna know more?

Thanks Lutra! I gotta do a series of these.

@olliecanal.bsky.social Sep 7, 2026, 10:02 PM

Yeah I just use a dot of Krazy Glue or even the cheap stuff from the dollar store, just make sure you lay them on a paper towel so they don't end up glued to your desk.

Fundamentals

Stupidly, I focused on colouring things before I was any good at drawing things. So now I'm learning to draw more things, including ing dynamic interaction. I don't post a lot of these sketches but I though I might this week.

Totally doesn't have admin arm access, right?

@olliecanal.bsky.social Sep 3, 2026, 5:19 PM

Thanks Rocky! I suspect that you also rock.

@olliecanal.bsky.social Sep 3, 2026, 4:19 PM

Ottermatic, even.

Oh Great

Now look at what you've got on your hands. The evolution will be revolutionized.

Yes! I was stuck in another dimension but now I'm back! And there will be more art.

Thank you, buddy, you're always such a boost. I appreciate it, I don't draw enough felines.

@olliecanal.bsky.social Aug 28, 2026, 9:15 PM

I cheat, I use both hands.

@olliecanal.bsky.social Aug 28, 2026, 9:14 PM

Happy to oblige. I usually stream them on my Discord since the video quality is a lot higher. You can DM me some details if you like.

Commission Process

I do all my commissions live, no wait. Camera's set up over my desk so I just stream it for you. Forty bucks, USD, for a sketch, and we go up to full colour canvas if you like. This one took about six hours.

Exceedingly excellent pose and body.

Rudders

Did hands and feet, now tails. Here's some examples how lutrai decorate them, plus a half-tail prosthetic. Left is a scan, right is a photo under UV light.

New Lesson Up on YouTube

This is the third in the basic tutorial series covering coloured pencil blending, the trick to take your traditional art to the next level. I'll put the link in the comments.

Thank you to all my Patrons for helping to make this possible!
