Mateo's Comments


Honestly the moment I first read his bio I fell in love? His design has always been a real treat for me to draw because it has basically everything I love design wise, and to see it combined with such an intriguing and unique story is really exciting! There is this strange sense of pity I feel for him too, because on one hand he's living in relative comfort, his hunting instinct isn't interfering with his relationships with humans and in general he really fits a "domestic" environment, but at the same time I can't help but feel sad for him and how he doesn't really know of his kin or their culture or anything. I have always been a sucker for the contrast of wild vs domestic in various shapes and forms and the way they're written in his story are so exciting I find myself craving for more? Like I really want to know if he'll ever end up learning about his roots or meeting other vetehi, or if he'll just live the rest of his life like has gotten used to. 

Sadly I can't really compliment the design since it's my own LAUGHS but honestly drawing him is always 100% good time for me so I hope that conveys some of the sentiment! 

Oooh Mateo is such a mood, his design is so good <3 Thanks to you, I discovered these species on dA and I lOVE them omg?? you got a precious boi for sure. I love how he plays chess with the scientist, it's really cute~ I can't wait to see more of him!
