We haven't won the contest, but I'm still a bit proud of this. It's a short animatic with a story about what some people think about calling pets "family members". In this case, guinea pigs. #guineapigs #swinkimorskie #モルモット #Meerschweinchen #cuy #cavia #marsvin #豚鼠 #animatic #animation

Kora had to sneeze during recording, so the polite thing to do is saying „bless you” #guineapigs #swinkimorskie #モルモット #Meerschweinchen #cuy #cavia #marsvin #豚鼠

I made a piggy-squirrel commission once :) it’s on my ig #guineapigs #swinkimorskie #モルモット #Meerschweinchen #cuy #cavia #marsvin #豚鼠 #petdrawing

I’m trying to draw despite my health state. Here are several wip sketches of Pantera, little piggy dreaming about being a shark :) #guineapig #sketch #doodle

Someone had her stomatologist check up and is mostly healthy :)

I’m working on an animatic about guinea pigs, it has to be ready by the end of the month. I can’t show you any previews atm since it’s for a contest, but I hope you watch when it’s done :) it’s voiced by me and my friends too, I hope you forgive me my silly accent.

My, time flies I’m creating PiggyTrain drawings blog for more than a year now :) I love this community already, I just wish my health would let me draw more often nowadays. Thank you for being here with me and the herd ♥️ I’m attaching first piggy animatic sketches I made

Merry Pigmas from me and Chaka in santa hat. It's the first time I drew her, she has these funny fur husks like a boar and is all over the place, being a child #guineapigs #pets #petsart #drawing #artwork #pigmas

I sketched it today during volunteering :) it’s made with colored pencils #guineapigs #swinkimorskie #artwork #drawing #illustration #christmas #festive #piggy #cavies #holidays

Kora keeps eating normally :))) every day she’s at least 830grams. I’m very grateful for your help and kind words. I think the worst is behind us. #guineapigs #swinkimorskie #Meerschweinchen #モルモット#rodents #cavies

Beautiful Peppa - with way too long nails. I'm still angry at myself that back in the days when we had only her and Dzika as our first herd, I made care mistakes. One would say that I did my best with my knowledge, but when it comes to my pets, I hate myself for failing as a caregiver. #guineapigs

Czaka and Pantera didn’t have a photo session for while. :) They’re no longer youngster cavies but it’s hard not to think of them like that #guineapigs #guineapig #rodents #モルモット #swinkamorska #piggies #Meerschweinchen

I wasn't sure if I should post this short animation or if anyone gives a damn about the author of those silly piggy drawings that sit behind the screen. Well, yolo. Storytime in comments due to character limit. #neuropathy #illness #pain #artist #piggytrain

Noms are strong in this one :)

Sleepy Kora

Next step in Kora's treatment is a stomatologist visit, tomography and x-rays, she might also need surgical corrections on her teeth after a month without using them. Please share it, you will help us a lot. Vet visits are costly. #guineapigs #świnkimorskie #rodents #モルモット #guineapig

We did some photoshoot :) 1/2 #guineapigs #swinkimorskie #rodents

Kora has pneumonia, this is the first time she tries to eat by herself since two days. I’m so happy even if we still have a long fight in front of us, this illness is hard on elderly guinea pigs But we’re going to do whatever we can. I might need to open commissions to be able to afford vet further

Kora still hardly eats by herself (but tries to). Every test came back ok (for her age and cancer) and shouldn't be the reason. Next step is a stomatologist appointment in the middle of November (great doctor, that was the earliest date available). So we will continue to feed her as long as needed.

Second attempt to join IG, please join it - it’s going to focus on artworks. It might be more convenient way to reach people. Although I’m way behind how social media works, so please be patient with me #guineapigs #artworks #petsart #swinkimorskie #drawings

Update on Kora: She is still syringe-fed every 3h, but occasionally tries to eat by herself, normal food and hay. It way not enough to feed herself and keep her weight, so we help her. As you can see, her fav oat grass is taken well (eaten on old shirt stained with critical care food). #guineapig

Kora has untreatable cancer, currently has almost nonexistent appetite. The fact that she ate her (favourite) cucumber, when we spent another day feeding her with a syringe, really warmed my heart, so I had to draw her #guineapigs #guineapig #cavies #rodents #petsart #drawing #artwork #piggy

Two years ago, Inka lost her fight with cancer. She always loved to bother Dzika (Wildling) to be her best buddy (to the great discontent of Dzika) Can I sit next to you? A little closer? Love me! Last year, Dzika joined the herd behind the Rainbow Bridge. I can see their meeting going like this.

I didn't know I would live to the day that Joga, piggy that hated humanity for a good reason, would purr during cuddles. Our hard work to show her how to trust paid off. Another reason to fight this stupid illness - for them. #guineapigs #guineapig #cavies #swinkimorskie #rodents #purring

Exhibit A: Pretty photo of fluffy potatoes, right? Exhibit B in the comments, of what was going on during photoshoot #guineapigs #guineapig #cavies #rodents #swinkimorskie #gottagofast

Kora - our Qween, or Kurowa (term created in Polish fan animated MLP parody, meaning more or less the same). She always ends up with some sort of crown somewhere on her head - made from piece of hay or sawdust. #guineapigs #guineapig #petsart #artwork #rodents #cavies #drawing #qween #swinkamorska

When things are bad, sometimes the only thing you can do is cuddle. I think I needed them more than Kora here... #guineapigs #guineapig #cavies #rodents #pets #cuddles

Please wish well to Kora.

The "Live" camera option is pretty cool when you miss someone. Peppa, just a few seconds that are worth more than gold #guineapigs #guineapig #cavies #pets #rodents #rainbowbridge

Our piggies turned 2 this month! They still act like children, tho - Czaka is curious, carefree, and first everywhere, and Pantera is a shy, emotional girl who has popcorning spells each time something doesn't go the way she wants. Stay that way! #guineapigs #cavies #rodents #petsart #drawing

I found out that yesterday was the Rainbow Bridge remembrance day. Apart from several piggies, we've lost other friends over time. Meet Czarek, Robb, and Mruczek. Both hedgehogs had cancer; the kitty I grew up with passed away at 17. I might tell you about them one day if you'd like to listen.

Two seconds horror: asleep-or-gone piggy and the moment they notice you. The very rarely sleep with eyes closed. Mini heart attack each time… #guineapigs #rodents #pets #sleepyface #cavies

Inka, our most cuddly Abby guinea pig, and another one who had lost the battle with cancer. She loved to purr and melt during cuddles and was very vocal about her emotions. I miss that bubbly piggy, as I miss all the friends we've lost over the years. #guineapigs #cavies #pets #purring #rodents

Kora - had a serious, risky surgery on Tuesday Kora today (Saturday) seeing her favorite noms - (I’m mocking her that she should also wave her ears as usual, to be more convincing) #guineapigs #piggies #rodents #cavies #pets #recovery #nomnomnom

Kora, our elderly piggy, had a serious surgery yesterday and is recovering in another cage, next to the herd. Joga keeps going to the wall next to her, tries to bite her way in to her friend for a while and eventually comments to herself, unhappy, when she can’t. Guinea pigs hate separation. #pets

Czaka, our current Abby, has well well-known abbytude - she's always commenting on everything, is first everywhere, very curious, and moody. We've had an Abby before, Inka, but they are very different personality-wise. Silly piggies. #guineapigs #cavies #rodents #guineapig #pets #abby #Abyssinian

Today’s another anniversary of Peppa’s leaving. I’m working on something more cheerful as a tribute, but in the meantime, here’s the story how I was affected by her passing away. I miss you, little one. #guineapigs #cavies #animatic #piggies #pets #rainbowbridge #guineapig #art #animation #rodents

I’ve been attending a convention where they had drawing corner in one spot where you could sit down at and take your time. Since I was waiting for one of the scheduled attractions anyway, I used my time wisely. „Kwi” is Polish „wheek” #pyrkon #guineapigs #pets #rodents #cavia #guineapig #sketch

Dzika, Kora, and Inka from our guinea piggy animatic (it's pinned on my profile if you'd like to see it). Only Kora is still with us today. #guineapigs #guineapig #pets #rodents #animatic #cartoon #artwork #petsart #cavia

Herd's evolution over time, 1/2 Dzika and Peppa Dzika, Inka and Kora Kora, Inka, Joga and Dzika #guineapigs #pets #rodents #piggies

Joga, Kora, Czaka and Pantera - our herd, still not aware that in about an hour they will experience nail trimming (AKA the horror) #guineapigs #rodents #pets #piggies #cavia

Both Peppa and Dzika used their hammocks like sacred temples. Peppa, however, despised being disturbed in her beauty sleep. Whining has not brought anyone back yet, but drawings can. I'm going to focus on that. You had the sass, sweetie. #petsart #animals #guineapigs #rodents #pets #artwork

Peppa, half of the first herd, the heartpig, never forgotten one, inspiration. This account wouldn't exist without that business casual black jumper and khaki trousers peeg. I would never start drawing guinea pigs. I would not immortalize her with hand-drawn animatic. I miss you, little one. #pets

Joga and Kora, both used to hate people with a passion due to their past, now kinda accept cuddling. It's amazing progress tbh. #guineapigs #guineapig #pets #piggies #cavia

Freestyle (her hair requires that if I wanted to finish in this century) portrait of our beloved Joga. She's naturally cute. #guineapigs #piggy #artwork #petsart #drawing #pets #rodents

Dzika. Peppa’s sister, our one of two first piggies, sunshine, very inteligent and cuddly. I’m devastated how it ended . She was supposed to go naturally, she was 7 already despite having many health issues, being blind and missing several organs. Stupid cancer… #guineapigs #cavia #rainbowbridge

I might not be able to upload it on Tuesday. It will be a year after Dzika went away. Unfairly, with pain, probably without consciousness that we're nearby. I'm sorry sunshine, it wasn't supposed to end like that... #guineapigs #petart #rainbowbridge #cavia #artwork #pets #illustration #grief

This time Uncle loves and feeds them, classy style, in a bowl #guineapigs #cavia #pets

Grandparents love their little mischiefs and often give them green treats #pets #guineapigs #cavia

Dzika’s first death anniversary is coming up shortly, I’m working on a portrait based on my fav photo of her. It’s not easy, my heart is still broken #wip #petsart #guineapigs finished drawing will be posted on 15.04
