Feral / Monster Art Trades [Closed]

Posted 5 years, 22 days ago (Edited 1 year, 11 months ago) by Therion

I've been looking around art games and art trades but its hard to find feral artists and characters. So I decided to make one of these to see if it helps find art trades. 

My art is somewhere between cutesy and realistic. My art style is still developing or constantly flowing so it can vary character to character.  I should also mention that I'm not the cleanest line artist so you might get unbalanced lines. 

Update 5/15/2022: I'm reopening this because I've gotten the art bug and I need something to aim it at lol. I've also improved a bit so I've updated and removed some examples. ^^


Basic Art Rules:

1. Please do not remove my signature and please give credit when available.

2. For Adopts and Designs, Feel free to change the name, species, breed, sex, and edit patterns as you see fit. Just give credit ^^.

3. Please do not resell my artwork for more than you paid for. ^^


My Characters : I'm generally looking for art of the Mains but I'm also open to art in the Secondaries.  I do have a few humans with ears/tails and anthros if your not comfortable with feral characters. 

Mostly looking art for these guys though: Link


My Examples:

My Art Gallery/Examples : Therion  [Has become a bit inactive but the examples below are up-to-date.]


Style 1: 

More simplified and cute. ^^ Generally they don't have real paws/feet. They tend to have more simple hair or fluff etc.

Anthropomorphic Option:

Know that I'm still learning this style of anatomy. It most likely won't be the best as my examples provided because they took multiple days just for anatomy sketching. XD I'm less likely to accept an anthro trade but we can see what happens I guess. I'm just letting you know upfront. ^^

Also the 2nd row is from a line-art base with edits, if you'd be interested in that let me know. Lineart by Pimsri

Odd's and Ends:

Sketchy Designs Trades:  

I like making designs so this is fun for me to make something new off of concepts or ideas etc. I'll work with descriptions and mood-boards etc. You can give me lists of do's and don't's as well. These will be sketchy but clean enough. My only things is these aren't 100% customs down to the last detail. I do like artistic freedom so nothing to restrictive. [Try to have somewhat of an idea of what you'd like because I don't like to disappoint so giving me 100% creative choice.

Sketchy Character Redesigns: 

Basically give me your character and tell me what changes you'd like to see. Or give me artistic freedom with a theme or ideas etc. I'll redesign them into something different etc. Lines will be sketchy and comes with color.

Your Art Level: I'm open to learning/beginner artists offering art. I know I'm not an expert and fall more into intermediate. Just know I'm not really open to the idea of receiving "scribbles" or "stick figures". I'm perfectly okay with chibis or simplified type styles etc. I like cute things! The more complex the trade is the more I'd want something close to my lvl of artwork though. I don't wanna come off like I'm seeking perfection so don't worry. We're all learning artists at the end of the day. ^^

Therion

DragonWolfDream Awe thank you so much! xD I love the sweat band and everything!

nideon

Heyyy! I'm interested :> your artwork is gorgeous! I honestly can't help but fall in love with each and every one of your designs ;; can we do a design trade, if that's alright? Here are a few art examples of mine! https://toyhou.se/3181269.art-examples?key=MI7jSGqfQEf5V4M

Therion

nideon Awe! I love your art style ^^ its really warm and tranquil!  I'd be interested in doing a design trade, it sounds really fun. [Would semi sketchy line work be okay? I'm not 100% confident in my line work abilities yet lol.]  How would you like to go about the designs? Would you like to go with themes or like a list of different ideas we like / dislike? I'm very open to how you'd like to go about it. 

nideon

Therion aww thank you so much!! <3 i also love yours! also, i don't mind sketchy lines :> personally, i love your linework! a list sounds cool!! <33
the things i absolutely fall for in a design are:

-light/whiteish color palettes (here's an example https://livingwithfoxes.weebly.com/uploads/2/1/4/6/21469346/1454199476.png !)
-natural designs
-canines
-simple designs

what about your likings? :>

Therion

nideon Thank you<3 xD I've been trying for improvement these few years lol. I've got an idea for a design. Would you be okay with a natural type fantasy?  Like antlers on a bird or like hooves on a rabbit? Cat with three tails?  I just like to give them a little something different lol.

You don't need to do all these you can cherry pick what you wanna work with. XD I like surprises lol. 

~I also like natural designs but if you wanna give them a little flare with color I go for those too.

~Mustelidae Family [Fisher, Ferret, Mink, Pine Marten, Otter, Sable, Skunk, etc]  [If you don't wanna work with weasel family, I do love canines and felines as well. ^^] 

~I like simple and complex designs

~I like markings similar to Dog Sable, Horse Sooty 

~I like natural and fantasy type things like horns, hooves, extra tails, etc 



nideon

Therion yesyesyes i'd be totally okay with that! i love these type of fantasy touches <33
also, i can totally do that! oml that'll be so fun to work with! thank you so much for willing to trade with me :> i'll get back to you as soon as it's finished!

Therion

nideon I started working it last night xD and I searched and searched for exotic canines. I came across a species of bush dogs. They tiny adorable little puppers xD and got inspired! I combined the big fluffy arms from anteaters and the long fluffy tail from the primates in South American where all these guy's dwell. I still need to fix a few things with the claws and draw some jewelry so it's not a 100% done yet. [I'll give the finished product when done.] I figured I should show you the progress since trades can be scary sometimes, plus if you want me to make any changes I'd be open to them. I put every marking on separate layers so they are easily changeable. Or if you want me to change something like a beaver tail lol. Just let me know o..o <3

This second one is some jewelry ideas that I got from South American tribes. It'll be a long beaded necklaces and tail/arm bracelets.

Therion oml. they're SO perfect!! i can't breathe rhghergbb
you're so creative, your lineart is perfectly clean and they look so much like a real, living creature ;; the fantasy touches are so smooth and blend in so well with the design!!
and, although i would like to see a more brownish/chocolate version of the golden parts on the fur just for curiosity, you don't need to change anything if you don't feel like it <333 they're perfect as is! i honestly can't thank you enough!! i'll be sure to show you some progress as well! i'll start working on it right now, since i finally got some free time! :D

Therion

nideon !!! Squeeeeee!! xD yaaay ! I'm very happy you like them! I was self conscious the entire time rofl xD. I really tried to make something floofy and cute o..o <3. Thats not a big problem! I can began playing with the colors and have come up with different versions. I ended up liking them all for different reasons lol. xD [Honestly you could keep multiples of the coat colors and just say it changes depending on the season lolz xD]

So this one is just changing the red/orange part only :

This one is where I changed the base color and markings to fit a more chocolatey tint:

Last one is where I went less saturated overall with a chocolate/brown theme:

nideon

Therion heyyy! OML THEY'RE THE DEFINITION OF PERFECTION the last one caught my eye specially!! i love the mix of colors <333 man, this pupper is absolutely flawless ;;; i love this bab already!! i can assure you: if your goal was to make something fluffy and cute, you did it the best way possible!!
also!! i'm so sorry for the slow progress D: please let me know if you feel like anything needs a change!

dd6ekij-03ff78f3-e373-405f-a1c9-545cf039
i'm adding elements slowly because my creativity ran out hdghsdhgh but you gave me an idea with the antlers earlier!! so i hope you like it <333

Therion

nideon So we're ganna go with the last option? I really like the grey brown tones on it xD <3 I always try to make something that myself would want. Makes it hard to give these critters away sometimes lol. And no worries, I just had some free time last night. I'm not in a rush or anything. Honestly I'm really stoked about the design you have now! xD The tail is floofy and those horns are amazing! Body looks like a slinky 8D [I have a pet ferret, he seems to not have a spine o..o] . Its right up my alley lol. I squeeee'd at my roommates because of how cutes it is <3. The only thing I could think of is a bit more cheek fluff cause I love a floofy face. xD I'm really to see what you do with the colors and patterns! 

nideon

Therion Mhm! <333 I'd love to try the seasonal change though (this idea of yours sounds sooo cool ;;)), so I'm probably gonna alternate between palettes if you don't mind! You don't need to send me separate files though as it might be a bother, I don't know if my design will be enough to make this trade fair ;;
I totally get it pfffff it's so hard to part ways with them sometimes!!
Aaaah I'm so glad you like it <33333 this means so much to me!!! Oml do you have a pet ferret?? THAT'S AMAZINGGGG they're one of my favorite animals <333
Also, here's the fluffier version! I hope I didn't take it too far ahaah

nideon Idk how to say this but today I woke up with a very irritated dry eye that I think has turned into an infected eye. I don't think I'll be able to work on my side of the trade for a few days till it clears up. The affected eye is blurry and hard to keep open without some pain. Idk how long it'll take to recover, I'm hoping a few days. I have not forgotten you and will not ignore you. @..@ This is just crappy timing for me. 

I can provide individual seasonal coats. Its not too big a trouble for me. And yes I have a cute wittle furret named Loki <3 xD He's my wittle baby! I really love the fluffy cheek o..o you did not go over board. No need to rush though! I'll look forward to seeing it whenever you can finish it <3 but no need to stress. xD Just have fun with it and I'll work on yours as soon as I can.
