Description Updated reference for my older character Mythumynx, or more commonly called Mynnie! He's progressively been updated over the years, with a few little things changing here and there. I don't draw him too often, but he's one of my favorite little monster critters. I've been very active with his development lately and thought it was fitting to update him!

The biggest edits to him since his creation have been simplifying him down a bit. You can see his original reference here for some giggles! I also made his skin more pinkish/purple since I always visualized him more purple but for some reason he stayed gray? Not sure why. The biggest change came with his tail, which is now a tentacle-like thing; this conveniently came due to redesigning my Swivel race. I haven't posted much of them quite yet, but here's a couple pics for relevance. Swivels are still under reconstruction, but I developed enough of them to tidy Mynnnie here up. Swivel can use their tails as hands, but Mynnie is unable to utilize it.

Thrash, as a species, are also on the list to be tweaked, but here are some visual examples of them for comparison as well.

Swivel Hybridism:
Speaking of Swivel, since it was noted in his Bio I'll explain further. Swivel are a race in the FaléQZ system (the same system as Ambivia) that are somewhat "off the grid" in that their race holds no formal contact with any other races, they do not allow anyone to visit their planet, and hold no treaties with anyone. Swivel are highly feared as a result of the very limited amount of information everyone knows about them. What people do know is they are the most intelligent species and regularly perform social experimentation on people. It is suspected, in fact, that the Swivel knew about the impending Lanian invasion before anyone else, and more than likely they were the ones who provided a deceased Swivel to the Lanians (likely by leaving it someplace for them to find) which eventually lead to Mynnie's creation. Because so little is known about them and there are no formal treaties, Swivel are exempt from all known laws. Therefore, Mynnie cannot be contained or restricted in any way, even with his Thrash half, so he can do pretty much whatever he wants and no one can legally stop him.

He often wanders between the same locations, including Federico's palace as they once, through mutual acquaintances, "met" and Mynnie took a liking to him for whatever reason. They do not communicate, of course, so Mynnie is often just sort of there. He gets fed at least! He'll appear further along in the comic as a significant but very minor character.

Intelligence
Mynnie's smarts are rather complicated. No one really knows how much he can comprehend. He does not appear to understand fully any languages, but appears to grasp basic communications and gestures. In return, he can relate to people the basics, such as implying his desire for food or for someone to open the door for him. He does not exhibit any other emotions and expressions. He is forever stuck in this very pained, sad appearance. What he actually feels or understands are never known.

Gender:
Mynnie is biologically intersex, having remnants of both male and female genitalia (of Thrash, as Swivel have no reproductive organs). They are not fully formed or functional. Neither is more visible than the other, but he was deemed male by those who discovered him and it has stuck.


Think that's all that needs explaining! Enjoy my little critter and HURRAH FOR MORE ART THAT ISN'T SCHOOL PROJECTS!

Whooo, an unexpected redo of Mythy! Don't you hate it when the tiny side characters demand the most attention? Haha!

Loving the update! Your style and anatomy has improved so much since the last reference, and I'm loving the little design tweaks although the tail will take some getting used to. It looks like it'd feel clammy and soft, like uncooked chicken. I can see Mynnie as being veeery touchy about that tail. Got a quick world question! Is "FaleQZ" the new name for the Mystic system/planet, or have you done some rearranging here? I remember the name from Chordata's ref, I thought that was some far-off star or something.

AlfaFilly In reply to Ribbontail [2015-12-18 07:00:07 +0000 UTC]

Yes!! I've wanted to do it for quite some time and was always too lazy to. Glad I finally got a chance!

I definitely like the improvement I see when I look between the two. Though my feral anatomy is quite rusty! Drawing anthros and humans so often have made drawing feral legs INSANELY hard for me. I can see on this ref the legs/body aren't quite right, but it's still a huge step up from back in the day!

Aha also raw chicken is TOTALLY what that tail would feel like! Maybe not so slimey but I can absolutely imagine it otherwise!

Ah yes! FaléQZ is in fact the name of the solar system. It's the "scientific name" so to speak, to fill in the gap until my mind can settle on a more casual name! Same goes for the Mystic World itself. That is still a big question mark for it's rename too, along with the entire galaxy all my stories take place in. Ahh, alas. I'd like to name them preferably within the next year (or at least when I get more serious on redesigning my aliens). Though first I need to actually name Chordata's race aha! I have her planet's name but not her species (nor the other ungulate types on her planet). Someday soon!

Oh gosh, I'm sorry to hear that all the humanoid art has put a dent in your animal anatomy! Overall I think you do very well with both! Just saw the new raptor!Linda concepts, and aaahhhhh yes that anatomy if some good stuff. 👌👌👌

So FaléQZ is the central/main/story system, got it! In my head I'm still thinking "Mystic World", complete with the geocentric setup. I'm excited to see what changes you make! I know you've had a lot of work on your plate, but things'll come around sooner or later. As always, if you need somebody to springboard off of I'm all ears!

"Cannot be affected by law".
Cue the "Can't Touch This" Family Guy version.

Or is it all law, like the laws of gravity? "Lol fuck you, Newton; can't touch mah swag."

This is such an interesting character. I love these kind of genetic-abomination creatures.
Also, I'm really fascinated by all the species you create, especially the Swivel race. They look super interesting. And so suspicious... Are you planning to do a ref for them?
lol 'large sad eyes.' the poor thing...

Aww thanks so much! I was considering changing the fact he was an experiment because they are so overdone, but it fits him too well. Alas, can't change everything!

I definetly hope to put together a Swivel ref! I don't know when it would be, but likely after an Ambivian ref. Though you never know!

Hm, I would assume that the Swivel have the firepower to discourage anyone from poking around too close then?

Indeed, their planet is surrounded by a forcefield that has a bit of a three-chances formula; you'll recieve a display warning to turn back, then an electro magnetic-isque wave to prod you, and if you keep trying they'll just blow you up. Their planet holds too many secrets to let anyone handle them.

Also they're like those old people who are really picky about their lawn.
