Vote on Patreon to decide which animals get combined into the next creature design combo!

I often get asked how to create compelling creature designs based on real world animals.
So here are my 🔥hot🔥 tips-
1.) Draw inspiration from as many organisms as possible. I always use a minimum of three. This keeps any one feature from being too prominent in your final design.
2.) Try to focus on indistinct aspects of your inspiration, like posture, or the shape of their spine/head/limbs. Don't replicate any part of the original animal's body completely.
3.) Choose a variety of organisms as your inspiration. A tiger and a lynx might seem like a cool combo, but your resulting neo-kitty might not stand out against other more inventive designs.
4.) Have fun! The rules of biology are your playground, and you can disregard the limits of reality as you please. Creature design is an excuse to explore and experiment. Don't hold back.

That's all I got for now! Leave three animals in the comments that you think would make a good combo, and I'll create a creature based on the best suggestions.
