Description Eh.

Meh.

BLAHHHHHHH.

*translation* Good night and a fortnight, I nearly gave up on this stupid thing hnnnnnngggg. I redid it twice before I finally settled on something I could be moderately satisfied with. There is still so much about this that could be adjusted, fixed, and tweaked, but I'm done. DONE. Ugh.

Soooooo.
Yeah, this was a brain-wreaker for me. Lol. I wanted to try a completely different and new style. Something a bit asian-y, and something with that 'rough paper' texture that I've seen pulled off so well around here. One such way it is, can be found in the awesomely talented GaudiBuendia 's art, who's work hugely inspired this piece I'd strongly recommend a visit, she's an awesome artist

So anyway, this was probably one of my biggest digital art challenges yet, and I'm not sure how well I did in pulling it off. Hard as it was, it was very enjoyable and I learned much from tackling it. I hope to be able to do something like this again in the future

Also, as a side note, if any of you are wondering why there seems to be a sudden flood of digital work and no traditional going into my gallery, it's because of two things: 1. I don't currently have a scanner at my disposal as of now, and 2., I'm practicing the art of breaking in my tablet and getting used to that Don't worry though, I still have plenty of traditional work that will be making it's way into my gallery at some point

I hope you guys like this!

I've seen those tigers without any kind of black stripes before, and that is what partially inspired this. I think those markings are just so darned gorgeous, I've come to the conclusion that you can't find and 'ugly' furred tiger!  

And thank you, I'm glad you like it! ^^

Have I alredy told you how great at Photoshop you are?
I really love the way how you did the fur, almost as if it was real. At some point it looks as it was done with soft pastels.
Btw I've just got my Intuos Pro today

Nice work! Everything here looks soft yet detailed the fur is very fluffy and the way that's you use green colour instead of natural black colour make it looks more interesting!

Fantastic! You're really good at the whole soft fur appearance; I just want to touch it... (preferably without being eaten). The greenish tint makes me think of a forest guardian or some other sylvan spirit, and again, you somehow managed to make her look feminine too! I think it's the eyes...

Great work once again my dear! Keep it up.

Oh wow, your skills have improved so much since the first time I watched you. I love the lighting and the little details you've added to this one. Wonderful work!

Well now, that's mighty flattering to hear. Thank you And yes, details. Sigh. I have a really bad habit of adding details to EVERYTHING, lol.
Well you've made me go all nostalgic thinking back to the past....to the artwork that I was proud of and satisfied with years ago. Like any artist I'm sure, I cringe when I look at that stuff
Thanks again!
