Welcome my new Grinmyk species! Since some people are starting to take notice, I thought I'd take the time to show you want you get with every $10 (premade adoptable) purchase! Contact me for customs, they will be slightly more, as you'll be getting specifically what you want.
Adorable curling pose showing the left side of the face, sitting pose showing the right side of the face, and my favourite view - The headshot (Showing this species' signature feature.) As well as the colour splotches and "eye" orb.
STOP! Don't make one without permission, this is a closed species! Those who purchase them from me may sell the one(s) they have for what they paid me for them. (as well as appropriate payment for any art you got of the character) Credit for the species must be given to me. You are allowed to post the reference sheet and adoptable transparency I give you with your purchase but no alterations can be made without my consent, including removing the watermark. (I make it small enough it's not the center of attention. This is mostly so no one tries to steal your character and sell it without consent)
On that note, please have fun with your Grinmyk character. I'd love to see as much art as possible of every one of them!
The species can be on land or water, but where they excel is on the water's surface, where they can use their, usually weak (They can only use them to glide or hover), wings to race along the waves. They are usually a very friendly, playful species, but can get aggressive when you try to pick them up.
The Grinmyk breeding season is in late Autumn, where they will lay their orb-like eggs to be frozen in the waters of ponds and lakes for the winter. When Spring arrives, the pups will emerge from these lakes, no trace of their egg to be found, with their 4 eye slits closed. At this time, they will be quiet, as they will open their mouth to see the world. (The soft, eye-lid resembling, palette of the Grinmyk is transparent, so they can see through it without hurting they eye.) Their 4 eye slits will open in a few months.
Baby Grinmyk do not have teeth, and are about the size of a small dog. They feed on plankton and small soft animals/insects. They work up to eating medium-sized fish but never more than that. (Their skull doesn't grow enough to allow them to swallow anything bigger past their eye.) Adult teeth are blunt and sharp (no molars), solely used for killing the food so they don't chew/claw at the palette as they are swallowed whole. As the palette is transparent, the Grinmyk can watch for any signs of danger as it swallows. The tongue of the Grinmyk is really only used as a helping muscle to get food out in the case that it's to dangerous to swallow.
The long whiskers of the Grinmyk are for feeling the area surrounding it, giving them a larger window of reaction time to predators that would otherwise eat the coffee-table-sized Grinmyk. Long ago, in a time before they developed nostrils, air-breathing lungs, and ears, the Grinmyk used their whiskers much like the modern angler fish. Whiskers are often bio-luminescent but can come in solid colours as well. The eye, however, is always glowing (even if only faintly). For a fast and stealthy flying or swimming creature. these creatures would be an easy meal. (They have no real defence: No armour, no poison.
The adult can open it's eye slits so there are only thin lines, giving the impression eye lids are there. Some mistake this as being surprized, when in actuality it's a sign that they are curious. (Trying to get a better view of something)
Fact: The "eye" orb never actually grows. The body of the Grinmyk grows through the back of the egg and encloses around it to form the unique eye situation. The thin soft shell becomes the soft palette and corneas. (So for any possible egg Grinmyk adoptables, keep that in mind)
Side note: Anthros maybe have hair but the feral form does not. (it interferes with eyesight too much and the fur doesn't grow that long). Anthros can be drawn with any style eyes. (As I don't expect everyone to get the hang of those unique eyes) There isn't much difference between males and females except the chin whiskers.
