A brown nature spirit gallops on a plain green background. It's roughly dog-shaped, with big black eyes, tufty ears, and no mouth. It has a big bushy tail. Woods' rose sprouts from its back, and forms horns over its eyes from thorns.

A white and black nature spirit plants four feet firmly on the ground. Winterberry sprouts along its back in dense sprays in summer and bare twigs in winter. It has tufty ears and a sly look on its face. It has no mouth, and a large flowing tail that drags on the ground

An albino, iridescent nature spirit lifts its clawed foot off the ground on a blank blue background. Extinct ferns and conifers (Agathis jurassica, Komlopteris purlawaughensis) sprout from its neck. It has large spines on its back, tufty ears, and sharp claws. A scraggly tail drags behind it.

Three people stand together in a lined, sepia digital drawing. Furthest to the left is Mona, a black girl with long braids and pointed ears. She is idly picking at her thumb with a worried expression. Her father, Ve, is in the middle and he has long straight hair tied in a bun, and brown skin with prominent eyes. He has a hand on each of the others' shoulders. His brother, Machi, is on the right. He has an intimidating sneer on his face, wavy black hair, and the same mid-tone brown skin that Ve does. He is wearing a headband. All three are wearing vaguely bronze or iron age clothing, though it's not a direct one to one, this being fantasy

All dogs face to the left in a static standing pose in a flat stylized way. This is a Bedlington terrier, which has thick fur on the face and bottoms of the legs, and thinner shaved fur on the torso, neck and tail. It has fur pompoms on its floppy ears, and a small dark eye on its egg-shaped head

I've been drawing #dogs lately, not for any special project but because domestication is fascinating and I like to see diverse things all lined up pretty in the same pose c-: #digitalart

The same man from the other image, but in color and older. His skin is a warm tan, and he has a maroon jacket over his undershirt. He has an annoyed expression, with one hand raised.

I've been writing a bunch about this guy in a #fantasy world lately, enough that I can easily say it's the most fiction I've ever written! His name is Ve and he's trying to get a new start on life, with a few hitches in that plan.

a pokemon called Dachsbun is the only thing in the frame. It is a dachshund made of pastries, with pink frosting on its back and ears, and a little beret made out of a chocolate drop. He has a goofy tongue-out expression and a yellow handkerchief around his neck

In Hungary we only have fragments of old forests, but current legislation allows forestry work even in the strictly protected ones. I need to spend more time in them, while I still can. Here are some strictly protected species that depend on these places (list in the comments).
