Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this “basically blue wild creature” idea, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride. I started with, well, nothing. Just a blank canvas and a vague concept in my head.
First, I brainstormed. What’s “basically blue”? The sky? The ocean? Sadness? I jotted down everything that came to mind, no matter how silly it seemed. Then, “wild creature”… I thought of wolves, dolphins, maybe even a funky-colored bird. It was a mess, but a good kind of mess, you know?

Diving into the Blue
Next, I sketched some stuff out. Quick, rough drawings, nothing fancy. I tried a blue wolf with glowing eyes, a weird fish-thing with huge fins, and even a blue jay that looked kinda angry. None of them felt quite right. It was like, “Yeah, that’s blue, and it’s a creature, but is it wild?”
Then I experimented with colors. Turns out, “basically blue” isn’t so basic. There are a million shades of blue! I played around with different hues, mixing in a little purple here, a touch of green there. I wanted something that felt both natural and otherworldly at the same time.
The Aha! Moment
After a bunch of failed attempts, I finally stumbled onto something cool. I was playing around with textures, trying to make the creature look more… real, I guess. And then it hit me: I combined the color of the deep sea and mixed it with the design of the scales of the fish, it just felt wild and unknown.
The Final Details
The last step was refining everything. I cleaned up the lines, added some shading, and tweaked the colors until they popped. And there it was: my “basically blue wild creature.” It was, you know, basically blue, but also kinda magical. The process was super messy, lots of trial and error, but that’s how it goes, right? It’s all about exploring and having fun with it.
