Very cool and nice design!
I like him :3

Thanks!
This specific character's design is by the commissioner, he had good ideas it looks like :3

Ahh cool

Thanks ^^

That is sooo nice ;D I love the transformation scenario into another species ♥♥

It's a fun concept, really gets the imagination going! :3

I love the forepaw design!

Thanks!
I thought about their design and purposes a lot, has neat advantages but sadly some disadvantages too

What limb doesn't?

True ^^

I love that they have support infrastructure set up for people who want to TF into them. :)

This is a relatively basic facility in this regard, not too hard to customize for individuals, there's plenty of time to do that while the next one is still in the process, the place might be staffed by various species too.

I see! So I take it changing one's species is not an uncommon procedure in this world?

It's rare by galactic standards but there are places like this where it occurs a lot yea.

God, I would absolutely work there if I could! :D

It would yield some valuable experience that's for sure! :3

Nailing it with the really nice form and anatomy of these characters, the lighting and texturing being the cherry on top

Thank you!

cute :3

Thanks ^^

Nice skin shading, looks almost like a metallic effect!

I like to make them shiny!
Not too much though, but this room has plenty of direct lights so I guess it fits ^^

Thanks for your comment!

Indeed he is awkward in his pose and movement at first. He does have instincts to control these things but his (rational) consciousness is the least adapted to it since it still needs time and experience to catch up with the instincts.

The webbing is quite flexible and evolved in a way in which the side digits can still easily grasp things by bending downwards and rotating a bit, and the webbing has the biggest surface area when the digits are extended to the sides, thus interfering with grabbing less.

I'm not sure if they can bend their neck almost completely backwards but it does have a better range of motion than human necks, especially in the pitching axis like you mentioned.

Hesiarr ears have a new design, closer to what they originally had actually. I wanted those to have a sort of finned appearance, I don't like the simple pointed ear shape much.

Hehe thanks, and yeah their eyes have a sharp contrast, kinda the aesthetic of a solar eclipse.

Yep this training/testing facility has a priority in safety for these first tests, later on he can experience more intense and dangerous things too of course ^^

Yep you got it right on the first guess, it's a tunnel crawling exercise.
It has some escape hatches dwon there so no need to worry.

And yep, when swimming, the ears fold back in a shape that acts like a half-pipe letting water flow easily along, also the ear ridges can flatten somewhat.

That's a mysterious ancient device you keep!

Many of its secrets have been solved but some still remain!
I'll show/tell more about them in future works too.

Very my-colored *prrrrrr* So well done, Teal. Love the shine

Thank you!
And he does have a nice color scheme, Ratchet_Raccoon came up with a lovely design :3

Love the sheen and color work on this; really nice!

Thank you!
