Description
Composition in this one is bleh, but it's been sitting uncolored on my hard-drive for a while, so I decided to pop it into OpenCanvas for a few hours and see what happened.If you've not had the...ehh... "distinguished" pleasure of meeting him yet, this is Iben, my gemsbok character. He's a grumpypants.

Hi there!
^skifi is too busy (he says busy, I say lazy!) to let you know, so I've been asked to tell you that you're featured in his regular anthro feature, here:

Congratulations, it's certainly deserved.

I like the drawing. I like Iben. It's just a great picture. Nice shading on the robe.

Iben is so cool. I normally don't like anthros that aren't wild canines or procyonids, but gemsboks are so cool. I've been considering making a character of one for a while, and this pretty much prompted me to go ahead and do it.

He looks pretty hardcore... especially with a knife wound to his neck...
Nice atmospere to this one though... The background is simple, yet really seems to mesh well and complete the image... like neither the subject nor the environment are competing for attention here... Also⦠I <3 gemsboks.

Iben beats up everybody, or at least tries to. That's how he says hello.
However, I think he would keel over and die in Tibet, so... yaks ftw!

I wish I could do backgrounds like you. I like how it's simple, brings attention to the foreground, and yet realistic? All the colors mixed in there fit so well, and if you concentrate on Iben, the desert and sky look like a photograph. Mrr... ;__; You're amazing.

Awww, sankyoo! I actually referenced it off of a couple of photographs, but I think painting it freeform-like without lines in OC helps the overally effect a bit.
Thank you much!

Simpel but perfect! It has a beautiful desert atmosphere and adding the staff just gets the final brush.
He also looks like a Star Wars jedi, but thatΒ΄s another story, lol.

That's is gorgeous Composition is lovely. Iben looks great, and I love the design of his robes and jewelry; the detail on the latter is fine but not busy enough to be distracting. The colors work very well between foreground and background, and the landscape behind him is nicely blurry, again keeping the attention on the figure as a whole rather than proving a distraction.

Dude, grow the hell up. If that's even possible.
How in the hell can you have so much gull to talk to her like that anyway?
Are you paying her for artwork? No. You have no right to say anything at all about what she works on and what she doesn't, even if you were. The pure audacity of you just makes me sick to my stomach. Don't be a huge bitch because your horrible "U DURAW ME ROY MUSTANGEE!!??!/111 HE AM MAH BOIFUREND" doesn't appeal to anyone with more than half a braincell. Spell right, quit being annoying, and grow up.

Because I wanted to draw this. I do not, meanwhile, want to draw anything for you. Commissions and personal art have priorities, now leave me alone.

What an awesome character!
And I love the coloring on this.
As for the composition, I do like it.
The way it's layed out accentuates the wide open planes
