Green and Black Poison Dart Frog

D is for Dendrobates Auratus, the green and black poison dart frog

I put a frog in a turtleneck sweater and that’s as far as I got with this idea, to be honest.

This is our second ace, the Ace of Clubs (or as I like to call it in my brain but not out loud, Clovers).  I didn’t want to be too repetitive with my designs, so I tried a semi-transparent plastic look. I’m really proud of the circuit pattern in his face and the camera lens eye. I made it following tutorials by Ardent Designs and Logos By Nick.

Off canvas is a whole arm with froggy fingers that I didn’t finish in time. I imagine him as some sort of super spy or detective. He’s subconsciously inspired by Nicky Flippers from Hoodwinked.

This is the fourth week of working consistently on the Alphabet Superset challenge and it was a struggle. The hardest part wasn't using Inkscape or learning new techniques, but just working on it at all. The first day or two was fine. But after that, opening the file made me want to close it immediately. When I work on creative projects, I tend to jump into new ones quickly, pursue them with a burning passion, and then burn out really hard and swap to something different as soon as I lose interest. Sticking to one project for six months is almost unthinkable. This week and last, I kept swapping to other projects to avoid working on this one. I wonder how many people doing this challenge are feeling the same way right now.

No, this frog is not as finished as I would like. But I still like him and I’m proud of what I’ve done so far. I genuinely love seeing each card when I go to share them. I look forward to coming back to all of these designs when I have more experience. Luckily for me, this next week is a break in the challenge. I’m going to take this opportunity to sketch the next few characters and make a plan to curb my avoidance. I’m determined to get through this and prove that I can see a project through from beginning to end.

Blue check mark? Overrated!

Blue frogs? Perfection!

Hey take a look at my newest froglet, just came out of the water today. A new frog has entered the chat 💙

Blue Poison Frog (Dendrobates tinctorius) "azureus", family Dendorbatidae, found in Suriname

Once considered a distinct species, D. azureus, it is now generally considered to be a regional color morph of the Dyeing Poison Frog, D. tinctorius, though some herpetologists consider it to be subspecies.

There are also other populations of blue D. tinctorius, that some in the pet trade and zoos call "azureus", as well.

Usually, D. tinctorius is yellow and blue, with black markings.

I got dart frogs last year, specifically Dendrobates auratus! So here’s a quick pic of “The Mini Bar”. They’re names are Mint, Julep, Jack (not pictured), and Coke.

Frog Pop #2 looks like a cool sunset! Did a splashback pattern for this one and I think it gives it almost a silhouetted tree line type look.
