Description
April 27th is the World Tapir Day! To celebrate, I made some charts with useful data and references for artists. I hope it helps you to design tapir characters, and to draw, paint and appreciate these wonderful creatures. This is the main basic chart, but I made also charts for each species, featuring some color variations and mutations too! You can find them for free at my Ko-fi - and, well, you can pay me a coffee there if you like them. Enjoy!
ID: A chart about tapirs named "Basic Tapir Guide for artists - by Ground Pear 2023". Label: "Family Tapiridae, Order Perissodactyla" - it is showing too frames with cartoonish portraits of a horse and a rhino as closest living relatives. It shows, in lines: 1- A starry tapir skull labeled "full of thoughts 24/7, very smart" and the head of a tapir yawning labeled "Dental formula 3/3 1/1 4/3-4 3/3 = 42-44"; 2- an adult lowland tapir with details for the hands with four fingers and feet with three toes, labeled "tiny cute tail, oval ears with white tip, short trunk", and a baby tapir labeled "babies look like watermelons"; 3- tapir species comparisons: the black and white Malayan tapir, the dark brown Baird's tapir, the grey and maned lowland tapir, and the fuzzy mountain tapir. Offwhite background. End ID.
