Hi everyone.

Thought I would just start a thread to
post some art as I have some to upload..


Here is a drawing I did for Kaloyan Alett..
One of our fine moderators.



Comments welcome as always.

This is a old drawing of mine. But with the 4th of july fast approching
it fits the season.

Looks like a nice cosy reading room. Kaloyan has a very contented expression .

2nd - I remember that one. Indeed very fitting for this time of year.

Nice work .

I don't do many fighting characters. Here is a
coyote with a axe I did a while back.

With the white background, I wonder what he's snarling at, or why he has the axe  !

He has an ax because he is defending his home from vicious, quadruped beasts that are intent on rampaging through his home. The beasts are like armadillos, but much larger in size and they feed on carrion and wounded animals rather than insects. The guy in the picture needs the ax to be able to attack their armor plating.

(Of course I made all that up, just seemed to be an interesting motive and I couldn't think of Old Rabbit making an aggressive character who didn't have good cause to be so.)

Heh..

That was a good story Kalo..  Actually I was working
on a character idea for a 3d model I was doing for a friend.

Thanks for the comments Kalo, and Shim .

Mr.Rabbit

Those are Really Really Nice. The Composition on those are amazing! and the attention to detail is to be admired!

The use of coloration is also well concidered.

I see your also well acostumed to graphic cheats! wich means most likely you have had training or you are very observent! in any case, your work is delightful!

I also like the over all flaver of the atmosphere. They are very humbling.

Iv been wondering. What you have been useing to create these pieces. Is it paints, oil pastels, or really good prismatic color pencils? (Il understand if you dont want to answer.  ^_^ )

Thank you for the kind words Onion Knight . I don't mind
telling you how I create the drawings.

Due to vision problems I rarely draw using paper or
canvas any more.

So I draw, and paint with an electronic tablet using photoshop 7
almost entirely.

After getting the basic sketch worked out I paint in
the color and details. Mostly using the brush, smudge, burn
and highlight tools.

I build up the finished picture using layers which makes
working on the different parts much easier.

I rarely use any of the effects unless it really helps.  I did use
a lighting effect in the top drawing for part of the background.

Drawing on the computer takes practice.  But I enjoy the
challenge of making a nice picture that way.

I am self taught, and have been actively drawing for over
20 years.

Hope that answers your question.

Old Rabbit

yes, thank you! I look foward to enjoying more of your art! 

The 2nd one looks like it just came from a book, it's that good! But the first one love how you did the light and background in there looks cosy even though with a stone floor, great work all of it.

Thank you for the nice comments CaseyCoati ..

That encludes all those who have commented.

I should have a new drawing up soon.

Hi..

Here is a drawing I did for Arbutus.
another one of our fine staff.



Comments welcome as always.

Wow. I'm just stunned to see a picture of Arbutus without his trademark coat.... I think I need some time to recover.

Heh.. He said it was too warm for it, but I put him
in some duds anyhow. 



Thanks for the comment Kalo

Arbutus's avatar is in black and white , so I never knew his fur pattern was white and brown.  Nice to see him with a smile too  .

Enjoy it while you can. I almost never smile. I only disapprove of things.



I've said this before, but thanks so much for the drawing, Old Rabbit. I need to get around to making an avatar out of this.

I love that "A" on his belt buckle. Just in case he forgets whose it is, haha.

Keep this up, and I might have to recruit you to be a storyboard artist on my films.

These are really, really good. Very nice work. My favorite is the first one, like everyone else said, it looks so nice and cozy.

Great job!

thats awsome i wish i could draw no matter the pictures are nice

Thanks for all the kind words.. Arbutus, Sskessa , Patrick Rangerwolf
,killrhawk , and Dark husky.

I haven't been feeling all that well for the last few weeks. but I think
I am on the mend. So hope to post more art soon.

Ooh, we need a good flautist at my sessions on tuesday. A couple know how to play the tin whistle, but its just not the same. So come on down, hehe.

Another nice pic, but take a close look at your character name. Not sure you meant to spell it with 2 Ls.
