Looking for species and/or aesthetic suggestions for a new character!
🕑 Added 2022-11-23 17:55:26 +0000 UTCHey all!
Looking to see if something can jog my inspiration here.
As I continue to expand the “sci-fi” universe that Hyde and Spit inhabit, I’m looking at their squadron, rivals, and motives.
I’d like to (over time) flesh things out & add some new faces to create comradery, test patience, piss each other off, etc.
For some years I’ve been thinking of making a (trans-femme) lady character but like a lot of other personal art ideas, never really got things off the ground.
Anyone have suggestions for a species? Doesn’t need to be a mammal. Im open to fantasy species, hybrid races, etc.
Also looking to see if anyone has ideas for aesthetics or color schemes? Maybe a vaporwave or cyberpunk theme for an outfit?
If you have ideas, share them in the comments below. Feel feee to include hyperlinks to visuals.
I’ll give initial credit if I heavily reference any ideas you share!

I forgot about lykois. A very good, but underutilized breed. Will see what I can make happen!
Atrikunara
A cute lykoi cat boy!

I agree 100%! I’d love to have an obligate herbivore. Bulls and bucks are on the mind especially. Thank you for the suggestion - I can really take a while to get around to personal work but it’s certainly noted!

Have you ever considered adding a herbivore pred? These something about that contrast which I love… Perhaps a bull, or a Hare… I dunno.

Wait! Clownfish!! I meant clownfish hahah! While goldfish also exhibit sexual dimorphism, they typically are born female and some become male as they mature, perpetuating the species. Clownfish are born male and become female as needed to perpetuate their species. Point still stands though, a hermaphroditic or a trans fish character would be really cool!

Reptiles are too good for this world and I’m sad that I don’t have many reptiles in my cast xD
SlipperySqueaks
I’m not sure how wild I’ll get xD but I do love me some species that are a little left field. All things considered if I end up leaning on a mammal, I may borrow some aquatic or insectoid elements for her outfit and/or gear!
SlipperySqueaks
This is an animal I wouldn’t have considered. Thank you for the input!

Hahhha! Equines definitely deserve more love, and I have seen a few tastefully done unicorns too

See if you wanna get wild I would say some sort of insect? Like a mantis or maybe a moth? Some with like cool colors if you are going sci-fi. Feel like cyberpunk would be warmer colors.
SiliconMage
I would definitely agree with a crocodile or alligator. Or some kind of lizard. I think they work well with this concept. :>
Baneko
Hmm... I think a buff trans cyberpunk unicorn could be cool.
SlipperySqueaks
You can never go wrong with yeens/gnolls AND biker vests
SlipperySqueaks
Crocs are criminally underused, really love this name too!
Lemskeun
What about a capibara like creature in a rough cyber or steampunk kind of clothing with bronze/red/dark brown kind of colour schemes?
SlipperySqueaks
Sergals are a gift to us all. Love the color concepts!
SlipperySqueaks
An anthropomorphic goldfish is both intimidating and fascinating to me. I may have to give this a go xD also did not know that bit about goldfish...super cool!
Stroh
Synth crocodile. Code name: MALWARE (Mal for short)

I think a cool Neutral/ natural color scheme with some pops of vapor wave colors, like purples, yellows, blues, etc. for accents would be really cool! And tbh I’ve always wanted to see a sergal drawn in your style!
Comet Softpaw
I feel like a rough and tumble trans-femme goldfish character would be great since in real life, goldfish are known to change sex if there isn’t a female present in the group.

A trans hyena/gnoll would be amazing. Especially with the unique clits that hyenas have. And I'm picturing a sleeveless biker jacket done in a vaporware color scheme.
