This was my 1000th picture on another archive I frequent (fanart.lionking.org) and I made it to include a character from all seven main species and subspecies in the world of Aisling. Aisling is a fantasy world that Kelt Ryanson and I have been working on for the past several years. The characters and species are (clockwise from the word Aisling) Hirudo the Rhodri, Lothlorien the Elven Rhodri, Orlo the Anifeilya Rhodri, Ra'Kian the Tarbhach, The Lady the Kyonshi, Nigel the Ko'Drho, and Minerva the Nebulion.

Yet another art trade! This one was with the very talented Nitsuku. This is her winged tigress named Anjiru. This piece was a lot of fun to work with and very satisfying to finally finish!

Kamui and Rei - Commission

I admit I haven't uploaded here in a long time. I apologize for that. I'm in the process of uploading some more pieces here.

Here is an older commission of mine done for Arazia. Kamui is the rather felinish anthro character on the left while Rei is the gargoyle on the right.

Characters © to their owners.

This one feature's Kelt's Rhodri Ash Shaharab and his younger brother (who belongs to me) Dahr Tal, who is trying his best to keep up. These characters have INSANE designs and I'm surprised I was able to pull this off! Ash Shaharab © Kelt Ryanson. Dahr Tal © Kristin Davis (Tallon).

This was my first commission, which I took at this past AnthroCon. Fortunately, both I and the commissioner were very pleased with how it turned out! Blaze belongs to his creator.

If you would like to commission something like this from me, please visit my DeviantArt gallery for more information: http://alai-tallon.deviantart.com

This was a character trade I did with Kelt not too long ago. I'm still very happy with how the background turned out. :) Druhane is a member of my Rhodri species and this character is © Kelt Ryanson.

I did this in an art trade with Faeree. It's her character both in its unicorn form and its lioness form. Faeree is © her creater. Done in openCanvas 3.

Cookie to whoever can guess what the quote in the pic means. ^_^ "At spes non fracta . . ." It's a silhouette of Tallon, though, that I did a few months ago.

Commission - Julie and Bilail

I commission I finished a few months ago for Moldred of his two characters Julie (the ocelot) and Bilail (the fennec). He described the scene to me that he wanted depicted and I just hope I pulled it off okay! I unfortunately haven't heard back from him since I sent him the finished work, so I don't know whether he likes it or not. ^_^; I was reasonably well pleased, though!

Julie and Bilail both © Moldred.

This is my fursona Kristin along with Aleron, her mate (who belongs to my real life boyfriend, Greg Strnad). I did this for the month of February in a calendar that I made for Greg and I as a Christmas present. I don't normally do fur this detailed, but I'd be glad to try again sometime soon. Kristin © Kristin Davis (Tallon). Aleron © Greg Strnad (Gerf).

Another picture of Kristin/me and her/my mate, Aleron. ;) I did the characters themselves in Paint Shop Pro 7 and rendered the background in Bryce 5. This picture, like an earlier one of us, was also done for our calendar, this one for the month of July. Kristin © Kristin Davis (Tallon) and Aleron © Greg Strnad (Gerf).

I don't normally do bipedal anthros or detail like this, but I decided to try something new. My hand STILL hurts from all that tablet work. *laughs* Anyway, it's a lioness about to bathe herself near a waterfall.

I had a lot of fun with this and worked on it for the past several days. I mainly wanted to prove to myself that even if other people don't find my art "good enough," I can at least make something that I'M happy with. Plus, I wanted to try something glowing. ;) So here's a luminescent tribal rabbit in a watery cave of glowing mushrooms. . . . It SEEMED like a good idea.

I did this as a prize picture for Pegasuss, who won my Rhodri Day Contest sometime back. This is her character Memeteka as a member of my Ocean Amul species, as she requested. Memeteka © Pegasuss.

Penuumbra

Penuumbra, a hetero female tiger character I came up with to play on Tapestries MUCK. She's been having a lot of trouble finding "playmates" for some reason over there (or, hell, any people really up for role-playing at all), so if you'd like to set something up, just send me an e-mail (tallon@alai-tallon.com)! Odds are, I may draw any scenes I find interesting.

A Little Playtime

I've been having a lot of fun role-playing on Tapestries MUCK with a character named Leonine recently, so I wanted to illustrate one of the scenes we did together. :D It's his lion Leonine and my tigress named Penuumbra. And hey, Penuumbra's still on the prowl for male playmates, so if you're ever interested in a role-play with her, just send me an e-mail or page mail or something. She'll "play" with pretty much any male, regardless of species. :P

Penuumbra and Ziggers

Sorry I couldn't come up with a more creative title. :P Another one of Penuumbra's very favorite playmates lately is a handsome arctic fox named Ziggers. She's been doing several scenes with him lately and having a great time, but this picture is actually from their first time together. Did a slightly different coloring style with this one, but I think it still worked out well.

Both characters © their players.

I did this for Rhodri Day one year ago (and it also became part of last year's Rhodri Day Contest) in colored pencils and while the scanner made it not look so good, I'm still proud of it. Those interested in this year's Rhodri Day Contest (different from last years) can check here: http://alaitallon.deviantart.com/journal/2185530/ or e-mail me. ^_^

I updated the reference sheet for my three-year-old Rhodri species in honor of Rhodri Day. It explains the various features and subspecies. If you are interested in the Rhodri Day contest (which began April 9), then please check out http://alaitallon.deviantart.com/journal/2185530/ or e-mail me at alai_tallon@floridagators.com. E-mail me if you have any questions about this species, too!

Finally uploading some more here . . . *laughs* This is one of the Rhodri group pics I did some time ago. All Rhodris in this picture © their respective owners (though most of them happen to be mine.)

Summer Bliss

Surprise! I do naughty art sometimes. Most people who know me would never suspect that.

Did this for my mate sometime back and I still really like how it turned out. He suggested I upload some of these to show that I can (hopefully) do art of an adult nature pretty well, too. If you want any pieces like this, please check my commission post or keep an eye out for my auctions on Furbid: http://alaitallon.livejournal.com/743111.html

Tallon in the Forest

Another older piece, this one ended up being on the design I used for my business cards. It's one of my main characters (but not fursona) Tallon, in a jungley-type forest (obviously).

Background referenced (but drawn entirely on my own) from a photo by Frans Lanting.

Tallon © Kristin Davis

One of my favorite pictures, with my Elven Rhodri fursona Kristin (on the right) tugging on my main character Tallon's tail (left). In chibi/SD style, too. ;)

This was my half of an art trade with Whiskerwing. Her character is on the right and her husband's is on the left. Her husband's character has spots of molten lava and rock on him, so that's why it looks like that. I had fun with this! Whiskerwing and her husband's character © to their creators.
