one character design thing id recommend is don’t be afraid to explore drawing different body types epically when drawing exaggerated proportions. it can do a lot for simple designs and can create some fun characters

Kai, Klondike, Dakota, and Echo

the azure-hooded jay is a large corvid species found in middle america. they prefer tropical and subtropical forest habitats, where they forage for fruits in the canopy. they are omnivorous, and primarily feed on fruits and berries, but also on dead animals and insects. little is known about this bird due to its secretive nature, but it can be inferred from closely related species that they are likely very social and intelligent creatures.

There’s a website where you can learn ASL (American Sign Language) on your own, free and it’s a 31 Day program! The woman on there, her name is Rochelle Barlow, she runs the site and she actually is a homeschool teacher and teaches ASL. I am passing this on to some of you guys cause most of y’all on here is open-minded and curious and it is something important to learn.

I truly believe this site is helpful for some people who can not afford to going to ASL classes, or someone like me that just enjoys learning something new. This site will help with that. Once you sign up you will put in your email address and Rochelle sends you emails on tips on how to sign, gives you practice sheets, and gives you your weekly videos. And its all online. No need to paying for anything. (Unless if you want to she has something very different to this program) 

IMO and yes, this site is really amazing and is important because you never know if someone who is deaf or HOH needs help, if you end up losing your hearing ability this is something you will at least have on the back of your head, and it is just like any other language and should be taught. 

the pharaoh eagle-owl is an owl species found in portions of northern africa & southeastern asia. they are often found in desert habitats. like other owls, they are typically nocturnal. they feed on a variety of prey, ranging from typical owl fare like small mammals and birds to the more unusual scorpions. pharaoh eagle-owls are monogamous and bond with their mates for life.
