Austin Dern, Dean of CoatisA gifted #CoatiMonday; this is one of a sweet set of vinyl coati stickers my dear bride gave as an anniversary present.
I haven't decided what I'll do with the stickers beyond appreciating them and the desire to share them with me.
Having a bit of fun hanging out poolside with @/Eon, your inflatable friend, this #CoatiMonday! Also with one of those padlock stickers that people are so silly about putting on null toys. Anyway look how happy toy is hanging out like this.
My own art and wow but I feel good about how this came out.
CW: mindplay/hypnosis theme; consenting but one might read it as accidental.
Hanging around waiting for launch this #CoatiMonday, with another vinyl sticker my bride gave me as an anniversary gift. I *love* this pose; it's such a great nonanthro-animal-hanging-out look.
Keeping cool again this #CoatiMonday, thanks to FA/techno. who didn't just draw this in marble-and-gold (that I shared months ago) but also did this blue-and-purple variant. Remember to keep the hottest sun off of you!
I don't know that the picture's posted on a proper gallery.
A statuesque #CoatiMonday as I share my own picture of me somehow a block of living marble. It's a fun way to hang out and prank pigeons!
A while back someone messing around on FurryMuck flashed me with a Medusa Head, with no idea that I was going to run with that. You never expect how many people will ask why you're able to move and talk and all. I choose to think they're worried for me rather than wishing I were inert.
Another #CoatiMonday showing off that sweet cereal mascoati gig! FA/techno. didn't create just the one image of me with a bowl of breakfast cereal, but did a color variant that's got a similar yet not identical vibe. Great fun to have a bit of variety, though, as part of your complete breakfast.
For this special #CoatiMonday another gift: another of the vinyl stickers that my dear bride gave to me on our anniversary.
And enjoy a late bit of breakfast this #CoatiMonday, with one more representation by FA/techno. who so kindly created a pitch-perfect representation of a fun little gig.
One of my own doodles this #CoatiMonday, depicting one of the minor burdens of having such a great tail: fans who'll want it all for themselves. Yes, it's a struggle, but I endure it because it is worth the struggle.
One last vinyl sticker this #CoatiMonday, another of the set my dear bride gave me on our anniversary! You see how cute coatis are as a species.
Going for a good stretch this #CoatiMonday. I have an elastic side I don't play enough and I'm trying to get that fixed. So this picture is based on the title panel for the story 'Bubble Gum' in Plastic Man #11, https://comicbookplus.com/?dlid=19957 page 15.
I posted it at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/49082066/ too. It's made me realize there's potential in ripping off^W^W studying Jack Cole's work for my own use.
Isn't that always the way? You find a great @Eon costume for a Halloween #CoatiMonday and then Eon is nowhere to be found.
Toy was so kind as to let me put it on, and draw this, as you can see at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/49430374/ and this is one of the rare pictures where I'm just happy at how *everything* came out. A picture is never quite how you imagine it'll look, but this came much closer than anything else I've drawn the past month.
Another of my own illustrations this #CoatiMonday --- https://www.furaffinity.net/view/49695354/ --- of me with my favorite person, my wife. Drawn as a small gift for her birthday this past week.
A long while ago she mentioned a passing fancy of holding a tiny me and I finally illustrated it. (Somehow I usually tend to be the giant one.) You can pick whether this is a giant BunnyHugger or a tiny me, or both.
Another of my own pictures this #CoatiMonday, this time a copy I did from https://brevardzoo.org/animals/rainforest-revealed/white-nosed-coatimundi/ in the hopes of getting better to understand the beauty of the coati jaw and also just how wild our noses are. They're really splendid, aren't they? Bonus good stuff: the tongue!
For this #CoatiMonday please enjoy two porcelain coati figures, apparently the same mould but slightly different after being fired. And painted.
The naturalistic-colored one was a gift from my dear bride to me months ago and I've shown it before. The Delft-style one on the right is one she bought recently and for herself.
Any resemblance to a before-and-after petrifaction sequence is coincidental.
For #CoatiMonday I repeat myself, sharing a dancing picture I did for Charles Schulz's centennial, seen also at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/49974562/
Peanuts is the oldest thing I remember being a fan of; I can't remember a time before I could read and what I read was this comic strip. I can't say how happy I am to be able to draw a decent picture of Snoopy myself.
Sharing a gift from my wife an a souvenir from Mexico City this #CoatiMonday. The coati magnet and the thought balloon are gifts from dear BunnyHugger. The goldfish-shaped magnet with the rabbit that's suspiciously close to her look on it is a souvenir she picked up back in 2018.
The fridge they are on is a Kenmore picked up from the Sears down the road in 2019 after we thought carefully about whether they'd be around the whole twelve-month warranty lifespan. They were not.
Spending a cozy #CoatiMonday this week, wrapped up in my own art. It's based on the 'blanket burrito' technique often used to bundle up an animal for veterinary care, and seemed like it'd be fun to try out. https://www.furaffinity.net/view/49560353/
For the last #CoatiMonday before Christmas the finest of all possible gifts, me! This picture of a coa-tree was inspired by @Chiaroscuro and was a fun idea.
My own art, posted up at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/50236689/
Happy #CoatiMonday! Did you catch me in the parade? Well, if you missed it, here's my own rendition of the scene.
Original at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/49947805/ and yeah, I drew it in time for the (US) Parade Day back in November but other stuff took my Monday publication slots, so this seemed like a good secondary day.
Happy 'Roo Year? Wait, that's not supposed to happen! This is #CoatiMonday! What's with the fat toes? The floppy ears? The pinkness? The --- ooh, free pouch! Okay! But seriously why is Roofus_roo's toy that I'm sharing for her so broken that it's doing something like *this*?
My own holiday art; original at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/50450175/
A surprisingly rare transformation picture from me, considering how much I like the theme.
I'm helpful this #CoatiMonday! Vahno's been content or even happy as a Free Will Drone, but they still have some adjustments to make in not having a face or mouth or such.
Free Will Drones are an idea we've been roughing out, and it's like you think, a rubber drone that isn't compelled to be someone's toy or maid or such. Just someone with low initiative and less intense personality. They enjoy it, in their way.

I look like a Muppet here.
Ever have one of those #CoatiMonday days where you're trying to get somewhere and a mysteriously context-free hoist is taking advantage of your natural elasticity? So *rude*.
My own art, at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/50614269/ and a rare moment of me drawing a not-generic emotion! I'm very happy with how this came out.
A bit of a redraw #CoatiMonday for me as I revisit the 'Austin in galoshes' look. I like the idea and am trying to get a handle on avoiding drawing paws by covering them in things. https://www.furaffinity.net/view/50717135/ for my upload of this to FurAffinity, or https://blimps.xyz/@Austin_Dern/108708906162261316 for the earlier take.
Sure is weird those boots are blushing, huh? Wonder how that sort of thing comes about.
An extraordinarily innocent #CoatiMonday today as I finally do a picture matching me up with one of my favorite fictional animals, Eugene the Jeep! And, as you can see, we have not been up to *anything* and are very glad you spotted us right here and now!
I was curious about Ecco the Dolphin and FA/techno. was happy to guide me around! A fun picture with a rare alternate body for me this #CoatiMonday, as I try on a more aquatic life than typical. Art by FA/techno. and I'll include a URL when it's posted to their gallery.
Back to my own art this #CoatiMonday, about that time I got to box @Eon! Toy's always so kind to go along with my silly ideas like this.
This one I feel like I did the folds and shine lines on Eon's face unusually well; so much of pooltoy art is about these little streaks of dark and light to suggest the material. A dark line with a light line on the layer underneath does *so* much.
The season's hot new toy this #CoatiMonday! FA/techno. was so delighted with my draw string as to want their own version of a me that only talks when someone else decides they'll take one or two sentences from me, and it is *wonderfully* soft and cuddly. Original art at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/50889988/
Having a rock solid time this #CoatiMonday! Please enjoy a piece of my own art of getting to look incredibly lifelike, just a work of art, thanks to my discovering the star-filter brush on Procreate. Original picture at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/51083272/
I agree, it's very peculiar that this sort of thing would just happen to me for no reason and that I'd look this happy about it.
Having a brilliant time this #CoatiMonday! A picture of a stained-glass cat sculpture that was going around here ( https://mstdn.social/@BadgerBadger/109927273293059764 ) left me figuring I could do that too, and so here I did. Original at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/51225687/ for your reference.
I loved doing this and want to do more with translucent textures. Will probably revisit the theme now that I've learned some things about how to do it.
That's Mr Badger to you 🏳️🌈 (@[email protected])
Attached: 1 image I've been saving this for #caturday but also because I have a thing for stained glass animals Edit - not my work, I just like it
An expert opinion this #CoatiMonday as @hexadoodle, professional limb appreciator, examines one of the many understated wonders of the coati form, our naturally reversible feet! Raccoons and squirrels have the same arrangement and it's fun when someone discovers that.
My own art ( https://www.furaffinity.net/view/51301935/ ) and my most challenging picture yet as there's *three* hands touching stuff.
And thanks to Hexadoodle for letting me play with a wonderful frog who is just *so* *much* *fun* to draw.
Hi, plush.city! Embarrassed to realize I failed to ever share this so I'll make it up this #CoatiMonday. I was having a soft time a month and a half ago and figured what I might look like as a plush doll and really liked how it came out. The draw string particularly is a *powerful* energy. My own art, here.
Hope your #CoatiMonday is starting as solidly as mine and Chase's! @chasetheredfox was good enough to join me in having a bit of time with nothing to do but be present, and also to do such a lovely illustration of it.
Let me tickle your fancies this #CoatiMonday! Or you can tickle mine. Here I drew one of my wildest fantasies, that of my dear bride BunnyHugger feeling absolutely free to tickle me because I enjoy it even if she does not understand how someone might like being tickled. Also, yes, I am ticklish enough in reality that people waving their fingers at me will cause me to giggle.

I hope this #CoatiMonday that folks feel the delight I have in getting to enjoy eggs and lots of painting things strange colors. My own art, posted at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/51714932/ for stable reference.
Several weeks back someone on SpinDizzy ( https://muck.spindizzy.org/ ) painted me pink, 'with pink bunny ears' and so that's why I've got more ears than usual. You know how it is when you're oddly susceptible to being painted.
It's a party-ready #CoatiMonday today! inflatessimal@birdsite was so good as to draw me as a mylar balloon, helium-filled and ready to join whatever the celebration is!
Love those seams, love those scallops, and love the rare chance to see a mylar version of me.
Enjoy the happy evanescence of a delicate #CoatiMonday! I knew that this soap-bubble commission from @frengers was going to be one of the best I ever got, but underestimated just how exquisite it would be.
This is so much a puff of air slightly contained in films of soap and water that it's a joy however long I look at it.
New month, new slapstick! After the sublime last #CoatiMonday FA/Lunara-Toons helped me get in touch with my cartoon side with an image based on a scene from the 1939 Merrie Melody _Porky's Tire Trouble_ (https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7xefuj at about 5:20). It's a great moment of stretchy, rubbery action. Being purple was Lunara-Toons's inspiration but it nicely fits my interest in being novel colors.

Enjoy some solid private time this #CoatiMonday with a picture by FA/techno., showing me curling up, listening to a little music, and feeling all secure that nothing troublesome is going to get through to me anytime soon.
And, for those worried about the epoxy here, please don't. This used up the last of the bottles so there's nothing going to waste. Also it's a five-CD model there playing burned MP3s so the soundtrack isn't going to be repetitive anytime soon.
A small embarrassment this #CoatiMonday: when people asked what kind of coati I am I've offered 'banana-nosed coati' and just recently checked and learned it's an idiosyncratic description! People write about white-nosed coatis but not the banana-nosed kind.
Well, I extend my thanks to FA/techno., who gifted me with a definitive picture of Austin the banana-nosed coati.
Xyzzifer K. Q. Sqrlmoggington@Austin_Dern Well I'd have to say the look's got appeal.
@XyzzySqrl Right? I've been hoping people would see that!
