« on: June 16, 2014, 05:45:26 pm »

Hey guys! Long time no see. I decided to put up a thread for all the improvements I had and the which I will have :) . It will be a long-term project , so stay tuned!
Comments are always welcome! This is my current progress, but I see huges improvements from 6 months ago .

A 3h traditional sketch of my fursona, Keito. I tried a new style , a more toony one :


A quick 2h lineart of Umi , trying out my new tablet for the first time! It's always look weird without pupils, but meh it's a lineart after all  :D :


More to come soon! Enjoy your stay :)

Yeah, I really hope she won't crash into a window, or else she will fall into endless loop of doom  :D
And what you mean by shinny Kor'vre ? I didn't heard of that word .

A quick warm-up sketch before realistic artwork begins! . Also trying to improve my emotions :

Oh I see it now , Kor'vre thanks for pointing it out! I got a whole life to make mistakes and learn from them. :goldhowl:

Your doing a nice job drawing the fur, and eyes too.  Your heads are
looking more realistic all the time

:) Very nice, I like the texturing of the fur.  You managed to combine the colors really well to make that look realistic.
...and the eyes look like almost like they came out of a photograph. ;)  I look forward to seeing more.

Thank you all for nice comments! I really appreciate it!
Right now, I'm testing out several digital programs like Corel Painter x and Photoshop cs3. I'm used to SAI , but it no harm to try out some new things.

More pictures to come soon!

All these pics are good. I especially like the second pic, it looks like it's staring into your soul.

Thank you Mu Rho Ni! I really appreciate it :)

This is something I have been working on. So bear with me if I won't post art in couple of days. This will be part of a bigger picture. A early sketch of African Wild Dog, I will add the body later and it will be anthropomorphic.I'm using SAI at the moment, later will use photoshop for end effects and colour saturation . Enjoy! :

Your full face head drawings are turning out very well. You should try
drawing heads at different angles as well.

It's always good to try different things.

Keep up the good work. :orbunny:
