A Valentines gift for my fiancé. I wanted to do something special for him this year but as he's working a late shift on the day this year I gave him his gift early :)

I spent a long time on this piece and put in a lot of effort - every single texture line was done by hand and the colouring took close to 5 hours to complete using 96(!) layers!

Christmas Gift: Archadia

This was a Christmas Gift for my friend Archadia. I worked really hard on this piece but for the life of me I could not get a good scan of it :( Looks a lot nicer in real life.

Art trade with BloodGlaicer on VCL.

Her character Titan in his royal attire on the savannah (well its SUPPOSED to be the savannah :P) at sunset.

This is version 3 - I'm sorry this came out looking so bad >< The other 2 versions got nuked by accident. Version 1 was killed when my cousin trampled it when the ink was drying and v2 was mauled by my psychotic Bam kitty ><

This is my submission for October's hybrid exchange.

My chosen one was Shinmaxwell's Great WhiteXScarlet Macaw, Pasebakhaenniut. I tell you, this picture was an utter pain in the ass to do. It doesn't show but I spent like, 5 hours at it (2 drawing/inking - 3 colouring).. it's just a shame it didn't turn out that well judging by the amount of time it took It's a shame the character was so hard for me to draw >< sharks are hard to do, as are wings (although I can do them much better I've not been in a wing mood recently - hence why all my winged chars are glaring at me).

I messed up his eye colour ;_;

My chosen one for this months Furry Cosplay Art Exchange (http://www.livejournal.com/community/furcosplaytrade) was Anjel who requested her character to be drawn as Mimiru from .hack

I haven't seen the show myself but I did the best I could with the references I had - the elbow pads were a bitch to try and get right, as was the sword so I just did my best at them both. I'm quite pleased with the result.

I also tried a new method of texturing/shading - not 100% keen on it but I'm still happy about it. The only thing I dislike is the background - I reeeally couldn't think of one so I just shoved her on a glowy gradient with stars, because everyone likes stars. I hope you like it Anjel!

I'm a bit late with this >.<

This is Leuco, owned by magnoona.

They requested for their character to be drawn as Q from the Star Trek series - as Q appears in a silly amount of outfits I was spoilt for choice but I settled on the good ol' traditional star fleet uniform - simply because their outfits kick so much ass.

As a lil bit of useless info this is the first time I've ever drawn a deer - go me!

Lil birthday gifty for Missy Gabrielle, its her character Missy dressed as Rouge the bat!

I used no refs for this and I'm quite pleased with this, besides the wings. I really hate those wings but by the time I realised I didn't like them I'd inked them >.< she's wearing the wings btw - hence the purple straps.

Isn't it obvious that I hardly every use pencils?

*cackles*
It's my submission for this months Furry Cosplay Trade!

I had to be so sneaky tip toeing around Missy to do this =P

It's Missy dressed up as Paine from Final Fantasy X-2.

I'm quite pleased with this - coulda been more extravagant with the bkg but I was busy dealing with the minture hell beast known as Bam the kitten

yup, doing yet another fax2 - http://www.livejournal.com/community/furartxchange2

This month my chosen one was kit foxfire and her avatar character, Kit. As it's October I've done her as a vampiress (the fangs give it away *snikkers*). Originally this had a really really kick ass background but we had a powercut and it got lost for eternity and I really didnt have the patience to redo it ^^; sorry for that Kit! I originally gave her wings as well (since Kit has optional wings in anthro form) but they didn't look right with the dress - and I love that dress too much :-P

For shinigamimaxwell who was my chosen one for this months Fur Cosplay Art Exchange.

They asked for their character to be wearing Seto Kaiba's Battle City outfit so he is ^^

Apologies for the cheap background, I'm in the middle of doing college stuff so I didn't have a lot of time to do an uber fantabulous one (plus I'm still getting used to Photoshop 7, I only got it yesterday).

wow, I'm brushing a lil too close to the deadline for my liking this month.

My chosen one for August was kookybat and their character, Kooky the Cat.

I have no idea why I turned her into Starfire... it just kinda happened one night. I remember reading that the character had a great imagination and loved daydreaming etc plus she reminded me a lot of Starfire personality wise - hence I decided to keep it.

I'm in love with her hair, it just looks so... pretty. Must use that technique in my other pics from now on instead of my usual one. Its so purdy!!!

Yup, I drew a gift for Missy because she kicks so much ass (and she drew a purdy piccy of Camilla for me!)

Looking back I'm amazed at how much my art has improved since the last time I drew Missy. Wow..

This month I had the pleasure of drawing for theechidna87 in FAX2.

This is her Tasmanian tiger/basilisk hybrid character, The Echidna. I had a lot of fun doing this!

And yes, it was inspired by & referenced from the Underworld poster.

I decided to come back to the FAX2 this month and ended up with this lil guy.

He's a tiger/armadillo/vampire bat and belongs to tygermoonfoxx.. and he was actually quite hard to draw.

As a side note - I would be damned proud if I built a sandcastle like that!

I hope you like him!!!
