Vixen Ayn

Girl-type Ayn Blackfox, "Vixen Ayn" , wearing white leathers...

I decided to do some funky lighting, otherwise there would be far too much white in the image. Funky lighting practice is good =). I also did the fur a little differently. I hope the fur looks suitably tactile.

Oh, how I adore underwater scenes =). I did take some artistic liberties with the foliage, as I'm not all that familiar with lake plants.

Fight for Freedom

A commissioned mock WWII recruitment poster, featuring Abe the squirrel, who is copyright his player. The poster is based on an actual WWII era poster, visible here: http://www.wwii-collectibles.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/uspaf221.jpg

This was a lot of fun for me, because it is a very different graphic style, and it was fun to try to draw the character in the style of the time.

Note also that the signature is dated '43 instead of '07 ^.^ Just for fun.

Feeling Predatory

My favorite couple to draw, Ace the Jackal and Misty the ringtail - Misty, feeling predatory, crawls up face to face with Ace, pressing her nose to Ace's. A prelude to a kiss...

Here Comes the Sun

"Little darlin' I feel the ice is slowly meltin'
Little darlin' it seems like years since it's been clear
Here come the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right " - George Harrison, The Beatles

A red panda in cute winter clothing, with the sun peeking out from behind the clouds to warm her back...

I'm happy with the colors I chose, and especially with her whiskers.

Another little painting for FC - Inks and acrylics on 5"x5" Gessobord.

Snowflake!

This started its life as a quick silly doodle on printer paper, and became a finished painting.

It is meant to look like a digital painting, though it is actually inks and acrylic paints on gessobord (gessoed masonite) I like to stick it to digital media, by doing the same thing traditionally ^.~ (I mean no offense to digital artists, in fact, I like what they do - but I prefer the traditional tools)

Sakura

Named because her hair color reminds me of sakura blossoms - a cute anime styled catgirl.

I tried to do something in an older style of mine, using cel style shading with acrylic paints.

Echo Recording

Echo the genet, recording a song...

I got the idea from an image of Kyoko from Maison Ikkoku doing a recording session, and saw my character Echo in the same type of situation =). Its been over a year since I've drawn/painted her anyways... her design has changed a bit.

An illustration for a new story by Bernard Doove on the Chakat's Den website

In a coffee shop aboard the starship, Rosepetal holds up a cookie, and asks Leanna a serious question - "Imagine that this is a cure for you. Take this, and you will never have an uncontrollable rut or animalistic heat again. Would you take it?"

Leanna and Rosepetal are copyright Bernard Doove.

This piece is done in micron pen on 9"x12" illustration board, and may be colored at a later date.

An illustration for a new story on the Chakat's Den website, a poker game between Admiral Kline, Chakat Bluemist, and two stellar foxtaurs, Frostbite and Eclipse...

It looks like Frostbite's the big winner..

This piece is inked with microns on 9"x12" illustration board. It may be colored at a later date.

A commission for Kairyu, of his fursona, a brown skunk =). Kairyu is copyright his player.

He is very happy about something - I think he must have gotten a good grade on a test, and is running home from school as the sun sets.. (I liked painting a simple scenic background in monochrome...)

Done in microns, watercolors and acrylics on 9"x12" illustration board

yukiko.jpg
Image: yukiko.jpg   618x800 121489 bytes 2006.11.06

Yukiko, a butterfly winged fennec/marble fox hybrid, posing cutely. She has little bells and crystal snowflakes wrapped around her fluffy tail, and a bells around her belly, so she jingles when she moves... and she has a purple ribbon braided into her long hair =). Yukiko is copyright Kanashimi.

This was a fun commission to do - I enjoyed the character design (especially those wings - based on a Blue Ulysses Swallowtail Butterfly) and the color scheme was definately to my liking =). I like all kinds of color schemes, but I tend to favor the blues.

Yukiko is done in microns, markers, watercolors, and acrylic paints on 9"x12" illustration board. Oh, and I used masking fluid for the drifting snow in the background. =).

maero.jpg

A commission for Janus Whitefurr of his character Maero, a jackal with some very interesting powers... Maero is © Janus Whitefurr.

Lots of glow going on ..His left eye glows blue, and his left arm and hand are made of living blue fire... The burning symbol on the wall is the unseen symbol that is on his back. That fishnet shirt was a real challenge.

Inked with microns, and painted with acrylics and watercolors on 9"x12" illustration board.

Image: the_study_of_the_sword_cl.jpg   800x647 163472 bytes 2006.10.28

A clouded leopard practicing her swordplay in a rainshower...

I'm rather fascinated with Ancient China, and the artistic cinematography in Hong Kong kung fu movies set in Ancient China, such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and "Hero" - which provided inspiration for this piece.

I also wanted to really have a setting that felt real - that felt like the character was really immersed in the setting - using lighting, perspective, and the rain to unify the piece.

This was a difficult piece for me, but also a very fulfilling one, in the challenges I posed for myself. I think it is too early for me to really say how well I did at those challenges, but I think it was definately worthwhile, and I'm proud of it =).


perfume.jpg
Image: perfume.jpg   609x800 125875 bytes 2006.10.13

A long time ago, I created a character, Perfume - who was a sort of genie, who emerged from a perfume bottle that a little girl had bought, and was her companion.. She had a horned pegasus form, and a cat form. My old sketchbooks have a ton of sketches of that character.. After getting all nostalgic and looking at my old sketches, which are from the mid to late 90s, and terrible, I decided to draw her horned pegasus form.

Anyways, just thought I'd do a fun color doodle inbetween commissions... and harken back to something old school (and totally girly... )

Done in microns and prismacolor pencils on Bristol.

gathering_flowers.jpg
Image: gathering_flowers.jpg   617x800 181538 bytes 2006.10.12

A commission for Nyghtwulf of her taur self out collecting flowers with her dragon companion Skai. Characters are copyright Nyghtwulf.

I always try to pose a new challenge to myself with each new painting that I do - the challenges here were trying to make the flowers non-standard (like, not daisies), and trying to make the forest look like more than just a row of trees. I also played more with reflected color - esp. on Skai and the saddlebags reflecting the greenery.

And the piece is done with Microns, acrylic paints, watercolors, and a little bit of marker on 9"x12" illustration board.

bluemist_and_sanddune.jpg
Image: bluemist_and_sanddune.jpg   616x800 127599 bytes 2006.10.05

Chakat Bluemist, and Sanddune, a desert stellar foxtaur embrace warmly... characters are copyright Bernard Doove, and part of his stories on the Chakat's Den website. =)

I ad-libbed the nebular background - which was fun.. The piece is done in Microns, watercolors and acrylic paints. I'm trying to extend my color theory a bit to make colors more reflective.. which is actually something really fun to do with paint. It was much harder to do with something like colored pencils.

gas_station.jpg
Image: gas_station.jpg   800x604 141536 bytes 2006.10.02

A commission for Mark McCloud, of himself sitting on the hood of his car at the gas station.

I love doing pieces like this - pieces that are about real life - about ordinary places and things we can recognize and relate to. I guess he must be enjoying the recent fuel price drop =). I am, too! Can you guess what gas station he is at? Or even better - what state he lives in?

Done in Microns, watercolors and acrylic paints on 9"x12" illustration board.

A conbadge for Oni, commissioned by a friend of hers as a gift for her birthday, which was yesterday =). This was fun to do, because her character is cute, and I love working with a cool color palette. Oni is copyright her player.

A portrait for my wife, of her character The Ayukawataur, in cosplay as Eve Tokimatsuri, from the anime Megazone 23. The piece itself is inspired by a similar painting of Eve standing with her hand on a brick wall. Character is copyright Noriko and Kacey Miyagami.

reunion.jpg

A commission for Moldred, of his characters Johan Steenbok, and Ruth Faulkner - two ratel (honey badgers) who were childhood friends before they went very separate ways. Johan became an officer for a neighboring country's military, and was the man behind a bombing that wiped out Ruth's hometown, and family. This is their first meeting since childhood, and Ruth is surprised as her assassination attempt fails.

The piece is done in Micron pen, marker, watercolors and acrylic paints on 11"x14" illustration board.
