Thylacine Notes

Description

This is what happens when i go to a math class lol i start drawing :p

anyways, all these where drawn without references so please if i make any little mistakes, dont crit, because i dont care.

these where originally gonna be a sketch dump, but i decided to turn it all into a "thylacine note" page. with little facts and such on thylacines. anatomy wise, marking wise, and other little facts. along with some poses and whatever.
some markings that i put may not appear on the taxidermy specimens, or the paintings/photograpghs. i put them there because it seems to fit from some photos and footage that i have seen. as well as a few paintings. so that leaves alot of room for original character designs/markings. so if you copy all of mine, ill know you didn't read this portion of the description.

i think some of the markings/colorings are removed a bit from the taxidermy specimens because the pigments of the fur are deadened, and faded. atleast in my mind. i could be totally wrong. im not a taxidermist. also they're very old. and im not sure again, but i think even taxidermy has evolved since the 20s-30s.


this is about 4 pages worth of drawings,
the bottom 13 are all on the same page. And where the first drawings i drew that day, and in a long while of not drawing thylacines/anything.

please do not steal this design or the colors, they're my original character Hugh's color design. and also, everyone has a different style, please develop your own. so you're not a carbon copy of me.


if you want alot more of an in-depth look at thylacines and their history/anatomy/physical appearance/reported recent sightings/relatives/etc...

go to this website. i like, devoured this info to get to the point that i am/was in drawing thylacines on my own.

also, it helps to study the moving animal, since theyre believed to be extinct. all we have of them are a few videos.

heres the best one i think to view.

Do you mind me using this as for "this-is-what-a-thylacine-looks-like" in regards to reference pics for myself?
