Finally able to draw again and I’ve never been happier to make a new character! After a rough week of being afflicted with pink eye, I can now give into the brain rot that is Lego Monkie Kid. I’ve only recently watched it but I’ve fallen in love with the show, which is where this funky monkie comes in. This is Xuesong Dong (pronounced Shoo-Wey Song) and they are an albino long-tailed macaque. They’re non-binary, but don’t mind being referred to as he/him or rotating between he and they.

This is my first time drawing a monkey, let alone a plantigrade one, but I think they still turned out great. Xuesong lives in a mountainous range called The Silver Peaks after being freed from his 1,000 year punishment of being turned to ice and rendered immobile. Much like Sun Wukong, they’re an immensely powerful immortal and primarily keep to themselves.

They are unable to be out in sunlight without the use of a cloud due to their eyes having intense photophobia, a massive hindrance for them as they are also severely nearsighted (a byproduct of albinism).
He’s not really the nicest monkey you could come across, but at least he’s nowhere near as manipulative as another darker furred macaque.
