Commission- Absol Portrait



This gave me a good deal of trouble but I am pretty happy with how most of it turned out. The horn and the nose could stand to be a bit better. I might give another go at drawing Absol in my free time (that is if I want to draw it again) and might try to make the horn more stylized like deer antler or something like that.

Commission for Eclipsis on DA.

Latin Vixen- Color WIP 2 ("Furring")



This is going much better than I would expect. I like the shading and lighting so far. Green is a bit of a difficult color to work with for fur (it's not a natural fox's color of course) but I'm managing. Going to work on her hair and face a little bit more later as well as fill in the rest of the spots around her eyes.

Latin Vixen- Color WIP



An artist on DA gave me some advice about how I can make my realism a bit better so I'm testing out blocking out my shading and lighting before detailing the fur. So everything looks all mottled and ugly and weird now. I'm just trying to stretch the shading and lighting as much as I can...well not so much that it looks crazy and too dark and too light but trying to find that "just enough" area.

I'm not gonna mess with that anymore. Just gonna detail her fur now. Or start detailing it at least.

Skech- Fanboy



Fell in love with the series Fanboy and Chum Chum and had to draw this guy. At first I didn't think I'd like the show. It seems just...weird and silly but I watched it and really thought it was hilarious. It's got a fun chaotic style that I just love.

Will eventually paint this and try to give it that 3D style but without use of 3D modeling or rendering.

Didn't really do the series much justice here. I just couldn't capture the chaotic nature just yet but in future fan works hopefully I can do the show some justice.

Kyuubimon Cosplay Plot- Head Sketches



Some quick sketches I did during class today. Didn't have a fox ref in front of me but I did enough to just plot out how I want my next cosplay to come out.

As soon as I finish up my costumes of Sombra and Excalibur, this is going to be one of my next projects (the other being a Corded Poodle suit).

Kyuubimon has to be one of my favorite digimon. And one of the other reasons why I wanted to start making fursuits. She's gorgeous and I've never seen a costume of her. Renamon I've seen many costumes of. But Kyuubimon would prove to be a challenge indeed.

I'm gonna go for a more realistic looking suit with this one. Want to get taxidermy eyes, nose, and jaw. Wouldn't be able to see out those eyes of course but I'd put mesh in the tear ducts to see out of. Would use both faux fur and hair extensions for her mane. Might put my own spin on it and give her a more "tribal" look with braids and beading. Only a little bit.

That's what I've got for now. Other than it would be a full fursuit instead of a partial one. The 9 tails would prove to be difficult as well...that I'm sure of.

Sketch- Kouto Kooni



Owed art/gift for StranillaFennebi on Fur Affinity. I definitely fell in love with this character's design when I saw it and just had to draw it. Evil rabbit...of course I couldn't pass that up! I'll be coloring this soon. I owed her some art from when she bought me a Deviantart subscription a while back. I was going to start over on this other picture, but I couldn't pass up drawing this guy and hopefully this works too.

Sketch- Latin Vixen



This girl has to be one of the main reasons why I really wanted to try fursuit making. The costumes she makes are absolutely gorgeous, sleek, smooth, and brilliant. Doesn't matter if it's hyper-cartoony or extremely realistic. Her drawing style is really beautiful as well.

Had to draw her a little something. This is her fox character...LatinVixen. I'm not sure if she has another name. I'll eventually show this to her when I color this up. I'll probably center this sketch better in photoshop.
