Not gonna lie, having your headspines puffed up into a buncha squeaky, wobbly balloons stuck to your head is a little bit embarrassing. I mean, by all means I should be used to looking real silly, but right now I feel like some kinda inflatable flower. ...Might make comfy built-in pillows, though. (or just bap around, hhehehe)

One last small concept doodle kinda thing, where I expand (geddit) ideas on specific parts to inflate again. Though to be honest I've always really liked inflated/puffy ears, I just haven't really had any characters that had any ears to puff since they were all lizards and birds and stuff (though I definitely have some Lucarios that'd fit the bill these days). But when I was sizing up the headspines on those bigger limb pics, I realized the fancy side spines I put on all my lizard's heads are mostly meant to visually emulate some kinda ears, so why not just poof those instead :V. Definitely works for me, I'll say. 👀
