New character time! Lizards are awesome and one of my favorite animals so it seemed weird that I never had a lizard character (not counting the one I made when I was like 14 and never did anything with, haha), so I made one! I didn’t want to base her on any specific reptiles, so I left her more generic-looking and gave her fancier colors based on a dandelion stem I saw, limes, and strawberries. Her name is Aster.
I’m not really sure about her personality yet, but I did make up some outfits for her. The middle one is probably closest to what she wears most days. She doesn’t really have hair so much as floppy spikes that she puts wool dreads in, and she flips them over to one side of her head (which isn’t really clear here, but oh well).

I love love love her!! And I especially love that you created your own sort of species here based on things you find fun and interesting! I like that you chose dandelions, strawberries and limes to inspire her color scheme, that's so unique and fun. It makes her her own unique species! She is just beautiful and I love her! I think I remember your old lizard character… or was he a dragon? Named Dimitri wasn't he?? I am such a creeper. But it's so fun to see you make up a lizard character, there are not enough of them at all! And you drew the lizard face so well! I really like her outfits too, the middle one being a favorite, it's just so mellow and cute, and her little socks and shoes. The dress is adorable too with the rainbows, and then the more badass outfit is fun too. And I love how her face matches each outfit, looking more happy, badass, or annoyed. She is so much fun and I will have to draw her for you sometime!
Thanks! I'm glad you like her! Limes are the shit, and I feel like I don't use enough green in my art anyway. No idea how she got them big feet to fit those tiny boots, though. I did the first drawing just to build her out and then the other three later on, so putting them together just highlights all my continuity errors, noooo.
Dimitri was the dragon one, yeah. I still draw him as a person, though I changed his anthro form to a lion awhile back even though I've never really drawn it aside from dumb sketches. idk it made sense at the time since Elias is/was a hyena, and it seemed kind of funny to make Dimitri be a lion due to the whole ~forbidden love~ thing since he's gay and his family hates it, and lions and hyenas are supposed to be enemies or some shit. Though I'm not really planning on drawing them together in anthro form again, so it's basically just a stupid in-joke now. I think I only made Dimitri a dragon because I wanted a dragon character, but it never really suited the character he ended up being so changing it wasn't a big deal.
The lizard guy was a character named Jeremy that I only drew a handful of times. He was a really early one who never ended up getting much of a personality or anything to make him stand out from my other characters so I dropped him because I didn't know wtf to do with him. I think I tried to bring him back, like, once and then gave up again because he was just too boring. Aster's personality really hasn't come to me yet, but I'm sure it will if I draw her more/think about it some more. I can see her really liking the outdoors or doing something like nature photography or collecting bugs, which seems fitting since I got the idea for her when I was in the park looking for bugs, haha.
