Firman Tries to Tumblr

I reckon someone might want to ask me something. This is a spot to do it!  

Hi, I'm Firman, the creator of the webcomic Moe and other things @ Firman Productions. I'm using this Tumblr to share many doodles and scribblings, which will often be about video games and hip hop. Thanks for looking!


eytancragg asked: hi, michael! i'm really enjoying seeing your various arts here on tumblr, so thanks for sharing. my question for you is this: do you have a most favorite and/or least favorite type of animal to depict?


Answer:

Thank you for checking out my stuff!
I think I can draw cats the easiest because I have most personal experience with them, so I’m slightly more familiar with their behaviours , posing and anatomy.  I love Koalas as an animal but while they’re not too tricky to depict, I’ve found them hard to caricaturize for some reason.  I need to experiment on that front a little more.

Oh and TARSIERS!  One of the best creatures:

Meanwhile if I try to draw horses and dogs without reference it often turns out awful.
