so I got this random... thing... in my head today, mostly based off the flared bottomed legs with claws growing out the front, and wanted to kinda start working on developing a critter out of it. I have also been wanting to play with some of the paint features on sai since I haven't touched them yet. So here it is. the first take on the clawed thingie in my mind, and also the first time I've played with digital paint. Its pretty much garbage, and will be moved to scraps soon.
as an aside, if anyone wants to point me in the direction of an easy to follow tutorial about sai and/or working in digital media for beginners I'd be really appreciative.
