Artist's Comments

Dunions males, like this one, often hunt in gangs of two; sometimes three, though it is rare (male gangs are usually related. Ex: brothers, father and son, etc.). The females roam in bands of 3-5 adults, not including cubs. The male's thick mane provides protection to the neck during fights. The telltale, thin membrane structure behind their shoulders flashes deep red during mating season. Supposedly it also reacts with the hormones of female Dunions, though how is still unknown.

I like this creature! Are these animals you've created, or have you a source?

Thank you =3

No no, these are all my own creations. ^^ Years ago I took a little sketch book and filled it with creatures and named them. Now I'm going through the book and recreating the monsters based on their original designs and taking the names and warping the words to come up with a species title. :D It's a big project, but I use the monsters in a story I'm writing so it all works out. I think I counted over 70 creatures in the original book I made. :O

Thank you! :hug: The anatomy took a few tries to get right, but it was worth it. As for colors.. I'm still not sure :XD: They need to be unique enough to set the monster apart from common animals, but subtle enough so that it's plausible for the monster considering its environment. :shrug: I'll figure it out eventually.
:iconsetsuna-phoenix:
Lmao aww yus it often takes me a few attempts to get anatomy and pose right as well ^^;.
