No colour for fuzzles? Awh...

I jest, I jest. I quite love it, though you interpreted my vision differently than I anticipated. It actually resembles one of my professors more than me... to a "T", really. I might actually go and take it to him to see what he says about it.

Thank you ever so much!

crap...i feel bad now...if i have a spare moment i may take another crack at it...the "look" was trying for me...tell me which parts i "missed the mark" on...this is a learning experience after all...after a night of sleep i'll maybe try to color it again...coloring it may help it look more like you too...

new request by me: if you ask for a pic would you include a ref pic if you have one, be very specific if your markings are all over the place or not standard to your species and also let me know how you found this thread...if you're from another site or heard from a friend from a friend from a friend just say so...i'm kinda curious since this thread has gotten so popular and i'd like to know where ya'll came from.... I'll post a list of whose done and whose in line in my next post so you guys can follow along if you'd like!

K THANKS!!!!

You need not apologize. This is your thread, after all, and you are giving us work of your own craft, completely free. I very much appreciate the work you did on the portrait, so you need not feel bad about not fulfilling my admittedly exacting demands.

With that said, if you really want another try at the colouring, I really do not vary from the standard, textbook red fox in my marking and colouring, except for those aspects that I specifically noted in my previous post. I am more interested in seeing how your vision comes through than having my specifications followed to the letter. However, as a little mischevious touch, how about putting a benzene ring on the book or piece of paper I seem to be holding during the colouring, if you decide to do so? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene)

Oh how!  I never even saw this thread XD

Can you do one for me too please?  My reference is over -->here (Reference pics in that post).  My description is fairly detailed as far as markings, features goes.  If I'm missing anything let me know.
Thanks a bunch ^_^

Not sure if physical attributes make a difference in your drawings (but might sure help) - something I failed to list in my initial description lol:

Name: Zev
Age:  23
Height: 5"
Weight: 100 lb.
Gender: Male

Also it's alright to draw in your style (anthro-toony), even though my fursona is more realistic.  Just interests me what other artists takes are on it :3

Additional info:  Been on these forums for a while.  But I'm a quiet one - thus, not many posts =D

Hello millislim

You look like you've got quite the long list going on there so I would understand if you decide your done. However I love your style so if you want to take a crack at it would you like to do a horsie? Equida/me is a silver dapple (note the silver is misleading, its a name only, the color is actually more of a chocolate brown). If you want to attempt the coloring, you are more than welcome to try for the dapples, if not a solid brown color will work. We'll pretend it's in the winter time, since horses only dapple in the summer, or at least this particular color of horse. Mane, tail, and hair on the feet are a golden blonde color.

I don't have a reference pic of the anthro version because I've never had one done. So if you want to do clothes think jeans and t-shirt. Plenty of book smarts but socially clueless and Equida/me can often be found with a dazed off look or with her nose buried in a book.

What I can offer are pics of the real life Gypsy Cob that Equida/my colors are based off. My avatar is one such pic or you can go here for the larger version and some other poses http://www.mulberrylanefarms.com/ (note pics/website are not mine I don't take credit for them) It won't let me directly link to the pictures, so just look to the right and click on Imported Gypsy Mares, and the horse i'm refering to is the first one.

Okay that's all I can think of, if you need to know anything else please let me know. Oh also feel free to take any artistic liberties you feel are needed. Since I've never had an anthro pic done of myself/Equida I don't have any standards. hehe

Thanks so much and like I said, if you wind up not having time to do it no worries.

Oh P.S. I'm new on the forum but almost always on now that I'm here. I've been following this thread since it started just finally got up the nerve to request. lol

I'd love to ask for one too! (I really don't know why I didn't ask earlier...)

Link to a poor look at my fursona

I think I'd like it less brown that shows it as now though... anyway, keep up the amazing work! :)

Could you do one for me for my mate? His character is Redpup, a red and black puppy dog. Inside ears, paw palms, toes, tail tip, and lower muzzle and neck are all black, the rest is red. Blue eyes.

Is very nice! ^.^ Excellent job on the colors. Looks very fluffy, and the pose sort of suggests that he's floating. I find it interesting that you chose to make him appear somewhat childlike!

he does look kinda "kiddish" doesn't he? hmm...it wasn't a conscious decision...i just start with a circle for a head on all these drawings and see where the lines take me...there's no real method to the madness which means none of these pics can really be duplicated by even me! also i try to leave some space in the pic in case people want to add a name or website to their drawings...and with your swallow i think i was going more for a portrait of him demonstrating a bit of what he can do

Well, if you're a chocoholic, you'd best not be a canine. That would end a bit badly.  ;)

Ohh... but it tastes so very, very good...

I'm not okay!

But really, you could try all sorts of fursonas, people here change from time to time so it's not a big deal. Theres a thread somewhere around here where I asked everyone to post stories on how they found their fursona, you could look at that and get some ideas. ^^

Well a gryphon would be cute, although like everybody else says its really a personal choice and a lot of people change theirs quite often. Your artwork is looking amazing. Kwan's is so cute. You are very talented!

hmmm yeah chocolate and dogs not quite a good mix. I wonder if horses are allergic to chocolate. *gasp* Something I don't know about horses. *dashes off to find out the answer* lol

Edit/ nope horses can't eat it. Sadness. *sigh* /Edit
