ACEO: Baumwolf

My entry for the first-ever [November] round of Crescentmoon's ACEO Exchange! My partner was Alpha_Ki, who is wonderfully easy to draw for. That's supposed to be a beech tree.
This was done in Micron pens, watercolour paints, and Prisma coloured pencils, all on some kind of awesome ACEO stock specially designed for watercolour. SO TEENY.

ACEO: WolfPearl

My entry for December's ACEO exchange, this time for WolfPearl of her persona by the same name. I think I levelled up on this one...Kyle will know what I mean. As cliché as this sounds the scan honestly doesn't do it justice. It's gonna be really hard to part with the original.

...I freaking love her eyes. :D Didn't touch them with pencil — that's pure paint.

Blah. Compression made this icky. Anyway, this is the third and final installation of my triple trade with the Inimical Priest. Rensis and Jeffu in the middle of something. Hmm...Jeff's got a feather stuck in his hair...I wonder how that happened? =^_^=
Pencil, pen, Photoshop, & PSP. Much fun to do.

quickie gift for mah dawg, 'cause kat needs a bitchslap glove.

[keep worrying that i make her head look like a cocker spaniel. :<]

Gift art for Ox-of-Ice doubling as an experiment with my new Prisma pencils. Should've gone without the sharpening. Have I mentioned I'm NO good at feathers...?

A sketchy-commission for Marc "Crevan" of his fursona, being his sexy, dominant self. That bit o' red is just a -very- small preview of what he has to offer....

His arms aren't as muscular as they ought to be and his torso perhaps tapers a bit too sharply, but I'm pretty pleased with the fur texture and the circlet in particular.

gates-of-annwn says FECK YEW!
a young fianna ragabash being his charming, agreeable self. his legs are freaking stilts, his coat's supposed to be black, i forgot the shotgun-slug scar on his chest, and i fail miserably at brass. also note how a few nifty details got EATEN. oh well, at least his player loved it. :P

Part the second in a triple trade with the Inimical Priest. This is Forensic Tarnish, an Irish Mafia tough type, and whatever that rat-morph in the background did I do not envy him one bit. Your imagination can take it from there.
Ugh...now d'you see why I don't draw tools often? So the hammer is well-worn. Or something.

trade || reno maxwell [vcl: the-inimical-priest]

i've owed this to reno for...ever. x_x changed designs at least three times due to various problems. not 100% happy with this [i wanted to cel-shade it, dammit!], but i must say, SPOON PEN RULES.
also! i know the title makes little to no sense in translation. :P it's a pun on the rammstein song "du riechst so gut." dude's name if vulf richt. ...yeah.

i could have SWORN i'd uploaded this here. 0_o my half of another obscenely long-overdue art trade, this one with nelena dis'kai, using old lineart and new techniques. largely inspired by leks bronks. it seems i left his earrings out by mistake. d'oh!

pencil, oC, mouse.

A wallpaper created with pen and Photoshop for an art exchange community. This was the single most challenging piece of art I've ever done, and it STILL didn't come out the way I wanted it. Pfoo.

exc || blitzava

October's equinexchange pic: Blitzava's Dare Not, a kelpie. Not the cattle dog, the murderous water-horse fae. He gets all creepy when wet. Methinks I didn't make him skeletal enough on the wet parts. :S This was also cutting it EXTREMELY short on the deadline. Shame on me. ¬_¬; Think this scan is a lot more contrasty than the actual painting. Just a wee bit new to the actual technicalities of using watercolours. Several things didn't come out quite as I'd wanted...several things came out far better than I could'a hoped. Also, I have NO idea where his right foreleg went. D8 Was almost done with the waterfall when I realised what I'd just painted over was supposed to be a hoof. That would be my bad. o_____o;;

exc || beerhorse

this came about from ruminating on beerhorse's username, a few things in her gallery, and the origin of the clydesdale — which is scottish, in case you hadn't gathered as much. X3 she has a teeny head and manhands, but i'm in love with the shading. not bad for my first horse anthro.

exc || risawn

this month's theme was autumn [my idea, woot!] and this character, magic [as in that's his name], is/was apparently stuck in this interdimensional gateway thing, so i tried to suggest that his surroundings were unreal, immaterial...illusions floating in a void.
the end result just looks kinda messy but oh well. :P

pencil & photoshop.

Cup o' Love.

Nothing hits the spot on a cold winter day like a hot cup o' love: cocoa, cider, coffee or tea.
My entry for January's equinexchange: Dogsoul's mule gelding Mavado. This might be the last exchange I get to do for a while so I wanted to make it a good'un. Was going for an Art Nouveau type thing with the steam...considered darkening the ends there but methinks it'd look too much like smoke then...? And yes that's supposed to be the Heartless emblem on the mug.
Heehee. His mane's in need of a trim. X3

Pens and markers on some funky-textured cardstock [which is why the background's noisy: I couldn't get rid of the texture without obliterating a LOT of the colour, sorry!!].

exc | whippetluv

My first submission for yet another LJ exchange group, equinexchange -- this is Whippetluv's Appaloosa colt [stallion?], War Eagle, who is described as being a real jerk. X3

Danke schön once again to my athro in herbivore anatomy, Dogsoul. <3

fax || aaaamory

when i first saw this character i thought of her in motion. twisting, swaying — dancing. admittedly this stems from my own fascination with exotic, especially tribal, dancing...but something so primal seems to fit her, being a dragon and all.

any single still image is foredoomed to failure when attempting to convey dance, much less do it justice, and as predicted i'm afraid this falls short of the graceful motion i first envisioned...it seems static, stiff, and for that i apologise heavily. she also doesn't really look very feminine so there's two apologies. *sighs* ah well. congrats, and i hope this pleases at least some small bit.

My half of a trade with Ox-of-Ice.
Uh...a little explanation. Ox and Bothae both reserve a very special hatred for Bill O'Reilly. I mean a VERY special hatred. Thought this might cheer her up about it.
Pencil/pens/Photoshop. Yay for arbitrarily blank backgrounds.

a just-for-fun entry to kettensäge's contest, the theme of which is "magic in the snow." been wanting to do this sort of thing for a while — a scene in faux-stained glass style. as the filename suggests this is the simplistic version. there are two others in the works: one in which each of the "panes" is textured, and the realistic version upon which this one was based.

Quickie for Wyla for that sketch meme that's rampaging all over Fur Affinity. Went a little overboard, methinks, but the effect if a good one. 'Sides, the fur-texture practise is a good thing.

from left to right: reirei as dreamswyld; joe; ox_of_ice; korde; kat; and chimera. don't bother trying to analyse it or anything, 'cause i determined their order with a d6. else i'd've ordered them to where their colours balanced or something. and *sobs and hides* i tried to make all of you look good, but there are so many mistakes...ah hell with it. i wanted to put more of my friends in there, too, but either i have no clue what you look like or couldn't figure out where to put you...but i love you all. (i'm such a sap.)
i felt compelled to draw kat with a smile 'cause she deserves some extra cheer....

Final Product! Woo!
My half of an art trade with writer Damion St James, as you should well know by now. That's his character, Ishanka (copyright to him, of course). Oofah. I am very proud of this one.

I know it's huge, but if I'd made it any smaller, a ton of detail would've been lost. THIS IS NOT THE FINAL PRODUCT. I still have to do the backgrouns, and /then/ it will be complete.
Anyway. This is Ishanka, a greyhound-morph from Damion ST James' book-in-progress titled "My Human Kuni;" if you're wondering, his half of the trade was a delightfully savage short story. I think I fucked over the coat. Goddammit. But I do so love those boots.

Inked stage of my half of a trade with the wonderful author Damion St James. This is Ishanka, his albino greyhound-morph, in an illustration for Damion's work-in-progress titled "My Human Kuni" (my apologies; the original title given was incorrect). I think I might re-scan this at 75% size (this is 50%) for the colouring, because there's an obscene amount of detail here. I designed everything but the boots myself!

one of the sketch commissions i'm currently offering. now his feet really don't look like they're supporting his weight, but if you consider that he's likely either about to leave the ground by a jump or just touching down, it makes sense. *shrugs* this was refreshing work.

opencanvas, photoshop, tablet. reference pulled from all over the fresking place.

He's...leaning against a wall or something. ~^; Regent Shaw's sketch meme thingy for FA. I've always loved the confidant, near-manic little smirks with which this character is usually portrayed, and I tried to tap into that a little. Iunno if it succeeded. *shrugs*

Actually timed this one. Just under two and a half hours.

Mostly-random gift for Dogsoul 'cause he got stiffed on yet another art exchange community.

[German for "lick me," as if that really isn't obvious. It's also a short form of a phrase that means "kiss my ass." X3]

The fifth and final sketch meme quickie, this one for Mottenfest. Now that I think of it, starting with a rainbow base was a Bad Idea. ...Ah well. There's turgid cock showing, does anyone here honestly care? :P

trade || a "chimera" huseman

had a LOT of fun with this one...really cutting loose with the art. going for a chunky, vectory feel [á lá ashryn & monsieur le eh]. plus i've sortakinda owed 'mera my half of the trade for...um...overayearnow. *cough* oh and by the way...the critter upon whose blood he's feasting? in life it was A CUTE LITTLE FUZZY KITTEN. >:D
