Description
Here it is. Finally.I've been teasing you guys about this for almost two months and here it is, my huge, realisitc piece that has taken me countless hours to finally finish.
I know my last couple picture was on the beach but... the beach just suits so well!! This is my first realistic attempt at water and sand and clouds. Phew is all I can say.
I can't tell you how many times I went over Ty's fur to finally figure out the proper direction and thickness.
I obviously had to do lots of research to help get everything perfect.
I looked at CunningFox 's gallery for how the fur flows.
I used this sand tutorial - www.tutorialized.com/tutorial/…
I looked at this cloud tutorial - p-51.deviantart.com/art/P-51-s…
and I looked at this water tutorial - risachantag.deviantart.com/art…
Yep, me and my lover Ty Pennington (quad form) about to make a memory on the beach!
Of course for every piece I have a very lyrical song that gives me motivation, this time, like some times before, my favorite band, a song from Bon Jovi's new CD Lost Highway.
Bon Jovi - (You Want To) Make a Memory
Hello again, it's you and me
Kinda always like it used to be
Sippin' wine, killing time
Trying to solve life's mysteries
How's your life, it's been a while
God it's good to see you smile
I see you reaching for your keys
Looking for a reason not to leave
If you don't know if you should stay
If you don't say what's on your mind
Baby just breathe
There's nowhere else tonight we should be
You wanna make a memory?
I dug up this old photograph
Look at all that hair we had.
It's bittersweet to hear you laugh
Your phone is ringing I don't wanna ask
If you go now, I'll understand
If you stay, hey, I've got a plan
We're gonna make a memory
You wanna steal a piece of time
You can sing the melody to me
And I can write a couple of lines
You wanna make a memory?
If you don't know if you should stay
And you don't say what's on your mind
Baby just breathe
There's nowhere else tonight we should be
We Should be
You wanna make a memory
You wanna steal a piece of time
You can sing the melody to me
And I can write a couple of lines
You wanna make a memory? (x2)

Gorgeous job, Bo.
You've made quite the improvement.
I love the sand, especially, and their poses are incredible.
My only crit would be Ty's eyes.
They don't look quite right (expression-wise), but that may just be me.

Thank you Pen!
Yeah, I got real frustrated with his eyes, I even asked for help from a friend to try and draw it out but it just wasn't working so I just kind of gave up lol.

Wow. This is...drop dead gorgeous. The detail...especially in the fur around Ty's neck and your hair is amazing. I really like the drawing in the sand, it looks SO real, actually drawn in there. The sky looks like it could be a photograph. I can't get over how great the expression on your fursona is. The ear and hair fall back flawlessly, it just looks perfect. This is really inspiring, it's probably one of the best of your work (if not THE best) I've seen. . +fav!

Aww Dee!
Your comments never fail to bring a smile to my face.
Patience was an issue with this, that is why this thing took me over 2 months to actually finish cause I'd leave it for weeks on end then eventually come back and do a little bit, etc.
I used and awesome tutorial for the sand ( [link] ), but I had to do all the little clumps of sand in the "ILU" and where the characters are in the sand.
Thank you so much for your comment! Made me so happy!!! 8DD
