Description *Wipes brow* Phew, this was HARD. And I'm still not happy with how the head came out - he looks like he's had a brick fall of his head XD I guess I like the shading though - so all is not lost ^_^

WOW! I was stupid enough to think it was a photo, but then where would anyone get the bravery to take a picture inches away from a pissed off Leopard?

It's AWESOME! How could you NOT like how it turned out?

Wow! It's wonderful! I've been wondering, how do you do the fur detail?

Golphee In reply to thepurplewolf [2009-10-06 23:42:14 +0000 UTC]

Thank you ^^

Well it's mainly to do with shading to get the realistic effect, but basically I just get a really tiny brush (like 1px - 3px) and draw each individual hair on in black, than change the layer setting to soft light and add shading layers on top ^^

thepurplewolf In reply to Golphee [2009-10-08 03:52:19 +0000 UTC]

Wow, that must be a big time consumer. Haha. But I could probably do a once a year thing. Thanks by the way!

Dead-R0se [2009-10-06 21:47:07 +0000 UTC]

Oh wow! That is incredible! And I give you extra praise for doing it digitally. Personally I can do realism quite well on paper but I can't do much on computer

Don't worry about that, you have already gotten me beat when it comes to fur and whiskers(definitely with whiskers) as it is. Against my traditional pencil anyway,don't know about digital. But just out of curiosity, did you put the reference image in black & white before drawing it? I've always found it to be easier that way when you do grayscale.

Golphee In reply to WanderingDragon379 [2009-10-06 20:04:35 +0000 UTC]

Lol Im afraid I would have to argue otherwise - I dont have you beat in anything XD

No I didn't greyscale the reference image - I was going to do my version in colour, but I thought it would be easier to shade in greyscale and then colour it afterwards. Once I'd done the shading though, I kinda liked it as it was, although I never changed the original image

*blushes* Thank you for the compliment, but must be hard to say that when you haven't seen many of my furries yet. I mean, the leviathan doesn't qualify(digital and no fur), Faith doesn't really fit because that was my first and only try with digital fur,'Black' doesn't do it at all, and the two anime pieces are the only ones done in pencil. Wasn't too happy with the hair there either.

Neat trick doing gray first. Haven't really seen many people do that. Sweeeeeeeeeet! ( as my brother likes to say)^^

Well, hopefully you won't have to wait much longer. If I'm lucky, it will make a nice birthday present to myself just to get another sketch put up before the month's over.XP

You should put up some traditional art sometime! Careful, I've still got two weeks left of being 16 to savor.X3

Golphee In reply to WanderingDragon379 [2009-10-06 23:43:55 +0000 UTC]

I probably should, but only our old computer is rigged to the scanner, and the old computer has no internet and is SLOOOOOWWW beyond belief XD I'll probably get round to it one day though - to be honest my digital work is much better ^^

Woah, thats a coincidence - I've only got one week of being 16 left to savour lol. Still 17 is cool - you get to drive!

WanderingDragon379 In reply to Golphee [2009-10-07 00:29:27 +0000 UTC]

Isn't all you have to do is connect and install the scanner? I'm not sure since the scanner I use is belongs to the church I go to.

Great, now I know someone one week older than me and another one week younger. This is getting weird!

Golphee In reply to WanderingDragon379 [2009-10-07 16:13:25 +0000 UTC]

lol yeah, but it would be more trouble than it's worth to do - and there's no room to put it in the hall where this computer is so it would have to sit on the floor. I'll get round to it eventually though ^_^ Infact since Im doing a lot more sketches now to get ready for uni I'll probably be uploading some pretty soon ^^

Nice kitty.... *puts a shaky hand out* You nearly fooled me with this one, Phoenix. Be it not for the markings in a couple of places, I thought that was a real cat and you took a picture of it! You're gaining ground with cats faster than I did. Yep, I'll really get you for it now.^^
