Description I need a better way to photograph art. I just couldn't get the whole image in focus. Either the bottom or top would be just a little blurry and I just couldn't catch the colors correctly...

Watercolor and gouache. "Tyrant" enemies are from the video game Xenoblade Chronicles X.

Megatonne(The pig) is a suid and can be found around the Bianho Grasslands. Bohdan is an auravis and can be found flying high around Unicorn Rock. Both of these areas are found in Primordia.

In game info on Suids: Roamers of Miran grasslands, the males of this omnivorous species are ill-tempered and quick to charge at anything that draws near. Sows are comparatively docile, though they often become equally volatile when rearing young.""Male suids compete for their mates by means of a headbutting contest that makes use of their cranial bumps. A crushed bump signals defeat and requires a full year to regenerate--just in time for the next breeding season. Female bumps, on the other hand, exist to store nutrients, and one can see a gradual decrease in bump size over the course of infant rearing.

In-game info on auravises:"Giant avians that soar the Miran skies in search of prey to skewer with their tremendous horns. These horns never stop growing, making them an accurate marker for determining a creature's age.""The sac on their backs stores a flammable substance that is channeled through the horn's tip, creating an explosive discharge that reduces its victims to shreds. For this reason, lesser carnivores in search of scraps are constantly following the auravis's trail.""During courtship, males fashion a complex nest of branches, the craftmanship of which is used by females to determine their worthiness as mates."

Also in the painting are the collectapeadia fauna "items" Grinding Squirrels and a Zizi Rabbit. There is no info in the game on how big these animals are, and since everything on Mira is hecking huge i imagined they'd be several feet tall, maybe. For reference, I think Megatonne himself is *about* fifteen feet tall, going by how high he looks when my six-ish foot tall character is next to him.

Auravis are my favorite indigens, them and Xiphias. You did a good job with getting the details down pat, especially the neck/tail pseudo-wings, something I didn’t notice until recently.
