Reference Sheet

A reference sheet for an anthropomorphic Eastern Dragon named Glabe. She is a silvery white color with dark blue hair down her back. She has four eyes: green with dark sclera. Her hair is full of small pink flowers.
The second page of the ref sheet shows sunglasses designed to fit over her snout and cover all four eyes; a combination baseball bat and cane; and a matcha set. It also shows art of Glabe smiling, Glabe snarling, and Glabe giving the stink eye.

This ref sheet was made by Atlas (aka ExplorerMoo)! Check out their other work and consider commisioning them.

I never had a set reference sheet for my quadraped form, but this piece is the center of my vibes for my anthro shape! As always, artistic liberty of my artists is totally welcome. I'm a shapeshifter, after all!

One of my favorite pieces from this sheet are the sunglasses. While my love for sunglasses began in my fictional life, I actually have quite the collection of them in the physical world now! When I told Atlas to include some sunglasses in my accessory sheet, I was definitely not expecting her to do something that made sense for my anatomy! So many furry artists just slap human glasses onto animal skulls... I really appreciate her going above and beyond to account for the shape of my snout and additional eyes!

The bat-cane gave me the opportunity to provide homage to my origins and acknowledging our IRL disabillity! Being able to acknowledge our mobility impairment in a sytlisticly interesting way was very important to me, despite the fact that our physical world cane is quite boring.

Finally, no one should be surprised by the matcha set accessory, as this system is a known collection of tea lovers! We chose to include kintsugi in the representation of the chawan because of the important symbolism that art has in our personal life.
