Lucy is the main character and I couldn't resist drawing her after she had her make over.

It's always a learning process though and I keep trying to find just the right ways of doing my art that makes me proud of it.
Thanks for the feedback. Constructive critism is always welcome.

Stylistic Dragon
I was pondering a unique car decal design for a dark blue car and this popped into my head.

"Lucy" looks a bit miffed at something/someone?
I like the idea you used for the "Stylistic Dragon"! I think that would make a great decal! You going to do some more in this style?
Post by: Sumarra on August 20, 2003, 05:22:53 pm
I might rework the dragon until it's exactly how I want it but I doubt I would do much more in this style. But who knows. It's something to consider.
I've found that summer has been keeping me thoroughly distracted and utterly busy to the point that I haven't spent more than a couple of hours a month in my sketchbook. It kind-of sucks since I'm falling behind on commisions but I'd rather not force the muse. So I'm hoping it will return with the cooler weather.
I'm sure that once I'm at Conifur's Artist Alley for a few hours I'll be pumping quite a bit out onto paper.

Warning - light bondage.
Submission
I really like how his ears turned out but I think he's missing a toe. hehe.. oh well.
Post by: Kada-Ru on September 15, 2003, 02:35:22 pm
I love how she looks. I do have a comment on the toes that are showing though. It seems they wouldn't be angled toward us since her knee is point at another direction. Just looks a bit off to me.
Are you going to color her?
"Submission"
He looks quite subdued and not in any pain. Just waiting for th next thing to happen?
As for his toe being missing, I don't think so. It could just be the angle and the toe is out of sight.
I am truly sorry I didn't see these before! I will have to check out the artists forums more closely from now on.

As for Submission, I was in a very sombre mood when I started it. That's why he seems tranquil. The overall idea behind it is he has willingly knelt in submission, giving himself over to the furson offscreen and is waiting for that furson to take control of his life, making him "whole" in doing so.
Not too long ago, a close friend of mine has left for the other side of the country and will be away until January. I realized after starting that pic that he was on my mind and probably the main inspiration behind the drawing. :\
We keep in touch each weeek though, so it's not too bad.

I did that with this piece when I had troubles with getting the feet just right and gave up but liked the sketch so I didn't want to quit working on it:
"Just a Glimpse" she sold at AC 2002.
Who will ever know that the end result wasn't truly intended from the beginning?
In "Submission" that is the feeling I got looking at it.
Sorry to hear about your friend. That is one way to pass the time till they get back is to keep them forever in your heart and mind by putting them on paper where you can always look at them.

I know what you mean. Some times you just have to face it, some things just DON'T want to work right!
Post by: Sumarra on September 19, 2003, 06:18:00 am
just kidding. I ran out of paper actually )It's a revision of my sweetheart's furry counterpart. It's been two years since his first one and I've found him to be not like a gryphon at all. But -much- more akin to a skunk for it's odorous ways and like a lazy lion who just wants be served and waited upon paw and foot. So I've combined the two here in a handsome way... hey, I have to have some reason to stay with him, right? *smirks*

Yeah, you might as well keep him about, who knows, you may draw some more of him!

This one I started... a while back. I can't remember. But it's not finished anyway and I am hoping to work on it tomorrow at the local art jam.
Tarot Reader
My friend HeartOfSilver and I were sketching together and we had spent some time talking about tarot and astrology and such when this one came to mind. It took nearly an hour before I could start drawing him because the mental image was so elusive. I was hoping to make his sleeved-sorta-vest-thing look like leather but I really don't know how yet. So I've held off until I can look at some pictures/art and see how others have done it.
If anyone can suggest a pic that would help me, I would be grateful
*hopeful look*... oh, and it's a bad scan... it wasn't inked so I had to mess around with the levels to darken the lines.

I'm not entirely sure yet if I will color it. I want to see where the muse takes me.

'Try and take it from me'
Not really sure what kind of dog she is but she looks like a mix of Beagle, Afgan, and Collie? Your guess is as good as mine... she had her own ideas about how I should draw her.
**Edit: I uploaded a reworked copy under the same filename so comments are still welcome.
**Edit: And I have finished her in color. You can see her here: Clicky!

A sudden compulsion came over me a few nights ago and I started a new sketch for an old character. His name is Sethrech K'rath. I conjured him up for a furry D&D game a long time ago and gave him a whole history and everything. He was fun to play, mostly fighter and part Barbarian made the game really interesting. Sethrech K'rath So there he is in all his muscley glory with his trusty warhammer, DeathBlight, behind him on the wall above his old mercenary shield. I may make a few changes still but feedback is welcome. |
And now I've cleaned up this sketch into line-art. You can view it here:
Clicky!

All Yours (Rated G)
It's a pic of my good friend and mentor, Shadarack Tailroam and his mate. I'm hoping this will become an art trade with him.
