Yeah

a pet nasaur playing with its owner

based on this

it might just be "this game has a multitude of creatures you interact with in one way or another"?

Playing Creatures of Ava has made me wonder what the heck "creature collector" even is as a genre. Ava uses a research system very similar to Pokémon Legends Arceus, but otherwise has little to no RPG mechanics and certainly no team building. Does creature collector as a genre apply to non-RPGs? Palworld, as I understand it, is not an RPG. Is that a creature collector? It is certainly marketed like one.

Is Pokémon Ranger a creature collector? You (temporarily) recruit creatures and make a team out of them.

Is Bugsnax a creature collector? You literally collect creatures but you don't make a team out of them, you just feed them to people.

What constitutes collecting creatures? Does Pokémon Snap, a game about collecting photos of creatures, count?

Zoo Tycoon? Metroid Prime??

(the image is bigger then i intended but meh)

design from my vanitas and ienzo friendship au where vanitas is turned into a flood after dying bbs, trapped in the basement of castle oblivion, and eventually gains the ability to transform into any unversed form

one common thing is the red marks along his chest being consistent in every form. this includes his human form, both on his skin and the dark suit, which has turned to similar colors to the remnant colors, just with the remaining red on his chest.

i just wanna draw the haha funny characters it's not that deep

they share the quadratum braincell and yozora is their exhausted babysitter

pokemon sleep is outside my door

I think that my fatal flaw as an artist is that idk what the hell a “doodle” is. I’ll be doing a full render with handpicked colors and texture effects and still call it a quick doodle. Where do I draw the line

imagine you're beefing with this unassuming quiet lady and her dork of a guan just transforms into a god damn trex

wanted to draw oni with his normal hairstyle and not looking like he's feral, but still unsure what type of clothes to put him in so he's just wearing a night shirt that's way too big for him

hopefully i managed to make his hair look similar enough but still unique

i fucking love this image
