Thorny Devil
The thorny devil stands like a tiny desert guardian, all angles and attitude, with a body covered in soft, rounded spikes that look fierce but feel almost playful in illustration. Its silhouette is wonderfully chunky: a stout little lizard with a wide, triangular head, a plump belly, and a tail that tilts upward like it’s ready to wag.Across its back runs a patchwork of diamond-shaped plates, each one a mix of warm desert colours—sandy golds, rusty reds, and muted browns—perfect for a palette that feels sun‑baked and earthy. Two small horns crown its head, giving it a slightly grumpy but endearing expression, especially when paired with its bright, bead‑like eyes.Its legs are short and sturdy, each ending in tiny claws that look made for tip‑toeing across hot sand. When posed in a friendly stance, the thorny devil feels less like a spiky reptile and more like a determined little adventurer, ready to trundle along with quiet confidence

Thorny Devil Kit
- Check the paint type – If you used fabric paint, it should be washable. If it's acrylic or another type, it may require extra care.
- Spot test – Dab a small, hidden area with water and mild soap to ensure the paint doesn’t bleed.
- Hand wash gently – Use cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid scrubbing directly on the painted areas.
- Rinse thoroughly – Make sure no soap residue remains.
- Air dry – Lay flat in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
