Uh-oh. We've been spotted.

300th picture, by the way, holy carp.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Name - Trefelor. (I imagine he's just called this as a disrespect)

Species - Andalite.

Desc - Dreamt about this guy in the last month, decided I wanted to try an Andalite sharpening his tail blade since I figured they had to do that during down time and there didn't seem to be any references of Ax or Elfangor doing that in the books.

I don't fully know what happened to half blind him ('starry eyes') but in my dream it must have happened freshly because he covered his main eye after showing it to me like he was ashamed or in pain, and I don't know why he's an albino. Probably just born that way. If I'm going by how my alien species treats the disabled I imagine he might have had the same treatment, not given the ability/priviledge to morph. ¬_¬
I think the colour was inspired by how I had to de-colour the Animorphs GBC sprites for the GBStudio program's limited pallet. (two shades of green and a black for the sprites)
I also imagined his tail blade is a fake, broken off/out in the same situation that blinded him, so he has to put in extra work to keep it sharp. Thick plastic, perhaps? There's going to be something on Earth lightweight but hefty enough to do some damage like a regular (keratin?) tail blade.
Got that idea from Charreed's Andalite Concept picture, based the tail on it too.

I suppose he's stranded like Gafinilan and Mertil are. Perhaps with all that fur and the colour he is it's a colder climate. Somewhere he can camouflage.
Maybe Britain despite how much he'd stick out like a sore thumb amongst our non-whiteness 95% of the year. XD Unless he just stayed in a scoop in the woods covered by leaves and trees, similar to this rock but more of an overhang.

..... I'm making this a thing now XD I am developing ideas and may well have a story written up at some point, if anyone is interested in reading it?
Let me know if you are!
Also feel free to let me know if you have ideas?

I did originally try drawing over the blade-holding pose with a friend's reference but Krypt kindly decided to completely redraw it off that pose since I was struggling so much.
Sarry original friend.

Apparently my habit is just to use realistic backgrounds for this year, whoops. I did my best to find a royalty-free one.
