Been awol a bit

[balaa]

Im working on some exciting stuff, well at least one exciting thing, but I can't show you guys D:. So have some other stuff instead :D





a concept sketch for a leopardess character by the name of Simoom. ALL I know is she will be an almost pearlescent sort of white color.

art blocked doodle, laws of anatomy do not apply :/

another sorta art block one of Arbo the lemur+wolf cross. He is a weeeee'murrrrr! He couldn't decide what to be for Halloween so he is all of the above. Halloweeen needs to come sooner >:

My submission for the unusual anthro calendar, also known as Rare 2010. artists art taking pre-orders now so have a gander at the official website and find the artist closest to ya and contact them to reserve a copy. RARE2010 official website The calendar is limited to 180 copies worldwide and I don't believe there will be a reprint :]. Twas my first time painting ungulates and I have to say..I think I'm smitten... You can't reallly see all the details here, for example the bead necklaces etc.

and finally a little random 45 minute speedpaint for myself. Dunno where it came from, felt like an environmental painting though.

I'd do about anything to see a step by step of that 45 min speed painting! I adore it

I also really like your colors and use of texture in the last one.

Perfect start on a day, thank you ^^

Gorgeous. I especially love the speedpaint and the ungulate piece. I love the soft tones of the sunset or sunrise and the females turned out very beautiful. I think that the tattoos add a special elegance to them.

The speedpaint brings to mind the image you had of a leaping leopard. The environment looks like it came from the same world. Very atmospheric and majestic. <3

Yay, you'll have a leopard character in addition to your snow leopard character! Though, I guess it will be white. :p

Love the environment painting. So much luscious green in there. Seems very peaceful somehow, though probably a bit windy. ;)

Glad you're keeping busy and doing well!

Your sketches are so cute. I love the environment painting, wow. I think that one could make a nice finished piece if you should find the inspiration and time :D

[quentincoyote.livejournal.com]

Wow! They're all very nice, but those last two are simply amazing! :D

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

WOW!! Love the cartoony ones especially, but the antelope girls are pretty stunning too, in a life-drawing way! ^V^
