This week has been nothing but stress and depression. I'm still not entirely feeling my best, but...what can I do.

Just..take this art and be on your way, I guess.

(May 4, 2017) Just drawing my old adopt design in a newer art style for improvement-analysis.

Water. Earth. Fire. Air. Long ago, the Four Nations lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, could stop them. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years passed and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar, and Airbender named Aang, and although his Airbending skills are great, he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone.
But I believe Aang can save the world.

Jee whiz are the Four Nation's symbols so pleasing to draw.
I honestly want to memorize them, so I've been drawing them everywhere.

(May 10, 2017) 3/4 view practice on a base. Please do not use this artwork without my permission first.

(May 11, 2017) Just a small doodle of Fluttershoot so I could test out my colored lead mechanical pencils. Angled view so you could see the yellow lead better.

(May 12, 2017) Vent. Nothing else to be said.

(May 12, 2017) And a design that I'm actually pretty fond of. She's a pony/giraffe hybrid, but she only has about 1/4 of the giraffe in her DNA. I've been calling her Ping, but I'm still considering other names.
I'm unsure of whether or not I want to keep her, or make her an adopt. But, I will charge real money for the design if I put her up for adoption. Anywhere from $2.50 to $5, to $10.
Nonetheless, as for now, I'll just say I'm keeping her.

Now, I've recently come up with a new pony-like species...the Skoppii (scope-ee)!

There are four different Skoppii tribes - Aquatic, Earthen, Windward, and Freefire.

As you may have guessed, they are an element based species.

Aquatic Skoppii are the most common of the four sub-species, their native planet being made up mostly of bodies of liquid. They have 'whiskers' streaming from under their eyes, coral like horns, long ears and tails, and gills.
They have many bioluminescent patches of color on their skin that glows in the dark waters of the planet.
They also have patches of fur on their underbellies and the bridge and end of their long, drooped tail, and strong 'flippers' that float apart from their body and help them swim through the oceans.
Aquatic Skoppii are primarily blues, purples, and greens.

Earthen are the next most common, though I have not developed them much further. They are shades of browns, beiges, and greens.

Freefire Skoppii are the second rarest. Just like the Aquatic sub-species, they have long drooping tails and large ears. Their horns, though, are more twisted backwards, and the whiskers under their eyes are not as thin and winding, and more sharp and thick. They also have body markings that glow the colors of embers when the sun goes down.
The Freefire Skoppii have thick coatings of fur on their neck and underbelly, back, legs, and the bridge and end of their tail.
They are found near the volcanic wastelands of the vast alien planet.
These Skoppi are primarily reds, yellows, and oranges.

And finally, Windward are the equivalent of royalty for the Skoppii. They have the ability of flight, unlike any of the other sub-species. Being so rare and farther away from other Skoppii, not much is known about the appearance of these creatures (not to mention I haven't developed them, either).
They are primarily whites, greys, blues, and pinks.

Now there are a few attributes shared by all Skoppii.
Each sub-species has patches of fur somewhere on their body corresponding to their element, as well as colored patches.
They are also all given tattoos on their flank representing their element, their specific region in which they live, and their role in the region.
In addition, all Skoppii are born female, but they may change their gender later on in order to reproduce.

(May 11, 2017) The concept for the common Aquatic Skoppii. (Also a design for shinyumbreongirl, please take good care of her!)

(May 11, 2017) And a rough concept for the common Freefire Skoppii.

Skoppiis are a closed species. No one is to make one without my permission.

Don't be shy to tell me what you think! Though if you must criticize, please be reasonable and gentle!~

Though these past few days haven't been the best, I believe I'm going to a sort of convention tomorrow where one of the authors of the Avatar books I got will be! I'm pretty excited, but also nervous..
