Description
EDIT2: New owner is /EDIT2EDIT: Didn't win, going to keep it /EDIT
My humble contest entry for 's contest "Design me a critter"
I might update it and add more designs here
About this design:
I see it as some medium creature who lives near swamps or lakes. Long limbs help it go through wet and unstable areas, large paws prevent sinking in and big talons are used for digging and removing plants/plantroots to reach the food (diet consists maggots, insects, smaller mammals, fish, softer plants, honey etc. omnivore stuffs). Longer hind limbs are perfect for jumping and escaping from predators. Formations on head work as ears, perfectly catching any sound when head is under water. That's why it usually seeps on it's back, "ears" sticked halfway to ground so nobody can sneak upon it. Chin along arms are extra sensitive to detect any movements (hunting in water+ detecting enemies), formations on chest help to protect the ribcage along with heart. Isn't very good swimmer but loves to splash around in water.
OKAY IF THIS LIL' SUCKER DOESN'T WIN I'M SO GOING TO KEEP IT!!! OwO
Hope you like it ;w;

Wait, where's the tail!
This art is great, I love the pale blue darkening into green along the legs.
