Can I make a 3D model of this artwork?
We're sorry to say that as of March 2021, Cryptid Creations has altered it's policy and no longer permits 3D recreations of it's IP. We are flattered to receive these requests by 3D modelers, but as we are moving into creating 3D models ourselves, we cannot afford the conflict of interest.

..aannd here's my favourite redesign outta the batch! The Mooshroom!
LORE:
The Mooshroom, belongs both equally to the Bos Taurus and Fugi family. Therefore it is naturally found in the biome that can easily host both species separately, the Dark forest, instead of this fantastical mushroom island mentioned only in fairy tales.
With a plethora of shade, humidity and vegetation, they thrive in the Dark Forest, easily growing until they can reach the canopy. They hardly feel the need to move, and can stay in one spot for years on end being able to absorb nutrition through the fungi it hosts.
There is only ever one Mooshroom in each Dark forest biome, and thus are considered the guardians of it even though their only defence mechanism is to shut their eyes and pretend you don't exist.
Many say because of this, they are always seen surrounded by a herd of wild cows, that will do all they can to defend and protect the Mooshroom. For all cows know that if ever they should lose their own herd, a new one will always be waiting for them under the ever present shade of the Mooshroom.
The Raid is a nomadic tribe of Elven warriors that have travelled from their desolate drought and plague ridden homelands in search of a better life and future. Through generations of hardship their people have become ruthless and barbaric. With only the strongest surviving the many trials they inflict upon themselves.
One of the most extreme is the trial of the Hammer that all, both male and female, must undergo if they wish to stay with the tribe and be seen as a true warrior. To mimic the mighty Ravager, the prides of any Tribe lucky enough to wrangle as their steeds, monstrous metal pegs are hammered deep into their shoulder-blades, with chains then welded and wrapped around them and their weapons, to signify that they are forever connected to it, thus becoming a living weapon and true warrior. Even hammered at the wrong angle, their Elven blood usually allows them to regenerate and restore the shredded nerves and tissue over time, which while often then leads to them looking rather deformed, still remain functional.
Many say their obsession with Emeralds and why, nowadays when they raid villages solely to find them and craft them into their weapons, is because of their brilliant green hue which deep in their Elven blood, reminds them of the homeland they forever lost, of the sprawling ancient forest, greener and richer than any seen today.
I decided to draw my own sphynx character from the book I'm writing. Legendary creatures lives in space there, so this one is space sphynx. Instead of earth sphynx this creature doesn't ask questions. Instead of that it knows all answers for all questions. But nobody have meet it durings thousands of year, only legends told that it exist. My book is not on English, so it will be big problem to share it with you when it will be ready :'>
I wish I had done a better job with this page, it's a goodbye to Maura afterall. I'm so happy people enjoyed her fleeting presence in the comic!
I made an account on Buzzly, if you want to find me there. I'm on Inkblot too, under the same name. Testing waters everywhere in case dA just deletes itself one day.

New art for the latest Kamigawa set of Magic: the Gathering!
This one was a struggle and a half to puzzle out in the beginning. There was obviously a lot of background space to fill and the angle made it so that I had to really be mindful of the perspective throughout, but in the end it all came together pretty well and I'm happy with the outcome!
''I look up at the night sky, and I know that, yes, we are part of this Universe, we are in this Universe, but perhaps more important than both of those facts is that the Universe is in us.''
My art can NOT be used to create a NFT. Only I have the authority, as a creator, to create an NFT of my art. If I find out, I'll go straight to the laws.

Have Mal spending some quality time with some feathered friends. uwu
Mal, as a Spirit, has the unique ability to communicate with animals. The levels of which she can do it depends on each species, but the animals she's most connected with is birds, and as such she has the easiest time with them. It isn't quite like they actually speak to her, but she does know what they're communicating to her, and they in turn regardless of if she speaks regularly or in a series of coos or sharp whistling.
When Mal first began living in the human realm she was always mildly uncomfortable and often left to hang out in the tall tall trees and simply talk to the birds, something she always used to do before she was... evicted, from her own realm. The birds always have juicy tales of the strange world she's found herself in, though to her surprise they reaffirm what a little black cat told her about her new human roommate. B)
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND that's all I'm gonna say for now! Experimenting with how I tell the F&F story so bear with me ;w; But ye! Hope ya'll like the art, more to come soon! uwu
