For once I managed to make a scenic drawing look better with color.

Tacoma is waiting, bouquet of roses in hand, for her sweetheart to arrive.

Tacoma and Bridget lost in a passionate embrace and breathtaking kiss. Love ya, babe :-)

A thick-coated wolf, and fur-shading experiment with crayola pencils. The only ink used here was for the facial features.

Because I felt like drawing a feral tasmanian tiger this afternoon. I'm going to do more, there just isn't enough art of these unique marsupials.

"What's gonna happen to us, mum?"

A worried thylacine mother and her joeys, wondering what the future will be like for their kind...kinda sad. Prisma and crayola pencils, inked in micron 005 and pasted to parchment paper.

Thylacine Portraits for Club Nimbus of FurN!

My latest avatar for my Furcadia dream, Club Nimbus, was my favorite animal of all time; the Thylacine! To go with the awesome avatar I whipped up a couple ports for this local species. To date, Club Nimbus is the only dream with Tasmanian Tiger / Thylacine avatars that aren't some blocky representative of that yellow rat, Ty the "Tasmanian Tiger".

Just another reason to come visit us! Club Nimbus is the best kept secret of FurN and we can always use more visitors! Stop by sometime to say hi or bring your friends, we're a friendly and sociable bunch when you can catch us non-afk.

Thanks for looking!

Quite possibly my favorite animal (surprise!) - The Thylacine or Tasmanian Tiger. On the dead spectrum, anyway. These were carnivorous marsupials, not as quick as kangaroos but walked with a slight limp, some even jumped around on their hind legs. They were declared extinct in the early 20th century. Very few photographs and only a couple short films were taken of these animals. No reference pictures were used since I pretty much know this critter like the back of my hand :)

Tacoma finds herself among ghost thylacines.

A slightly more realistic Tacoma. Boredly sketched out while chatting over aim.

Her footsies are a little big, but it was intentional.

The completed request for Crystal. Her tiger character looks quite nice with yellow fur.

A request for my friend Crystal.

Profile one in a series of character titles I completed last June using just markers. None of these were sketched or outined in pencil first...they were very quick, basic profile pages for an incomplete story.

Profile two in a series of character titles I completed last June using just markers. None of these were sketched or outined in pencil first...they were very quick, basic profile pages for an incomplete story.

"We were walking down my neighborhood and I almost stepped on a dead bird at my foot. I go on to say how sad it is to find dead cats in the road because you know they were someone's pet...well, right before us as we kept walking was a dead cat - that wasnt there 5 min. before. I could not describe the look on her face...I never wanted to see that look again, I almost started crying. she was so upset. That was the last time I ever saw her as my girlfriend. That part of us died shortly after..."

An -experiment- with Photoshop 7. No filters were used.

Fourteen hours of my life, gone.

Drawing from spring 2002 of a tiger transforming from anthro to feral.

Giftage for Velveteen of SA.

This has got to be the strangest character I've ever drawn. Her name is really not Junkie Glamour, in fact she doesn't have one yet. She's a narcotic-loving mink.

Am I the only person who feels this way about their alter-ego?

I just wish she'd shut the hell up sometimes.

I really like how this turned out.

Some hundred years in the future, cyber love will take on many new forms, such as this one. But remember, no matter how far technology may evolve, cyberlove will always remain an illusion...

Trixie Raver.

In addition to being the guardian of the uthernet, Trixie Raver also manufactures cloud9 computers. Couldn't think of anything futuristic besides the projector on top...sadly there are floppy and rom drives built in...and we all know those will be long extinct a hundred years from now.

One of my oldest characters, Trixie Raver the golden lab. Haven't drawn much of her in ages. Not too happy with this. The symbol on her shirt is from one of my runestones - it means fertility.

I used up a brand new pen inking the stripes and feathers on this piece. It was relaxing to take my time with it, for once I didn't feel rushed. I also colored the original which looks pretty tight. Whitney the tigress now has orange fur and rainbow wings. So if anybody wants to color her, go right ahead! I'm taking submissions for the contest anytime.

An older picture, a sharper, cleaner scan. ^_^
