Description Well here is the final piece for the fourth addition to my big cat series. Im really happy with the results on this one, i was able to capture that beautiful look in its eyes and the different textures. My scanner was not able to capture subtle details, especially around the dark areas of the fur. Ill see if i can post a digital photo of it. Well like my others this one will also be available as limited edition prints. If you are interested or have any questions please contact me. Well here it is and thank you to all who followed the progress.

This is why I LOVE pencil as a medium. Produces STUNNING results...and you can erase your mistakes easily.
Great job!!!

scherzando [2006-03-30 15:47:26 +0000 UTC]

How much does it cost to commission something like this? I love wild cats
And how do you draw so well???? *jealous* My drawings are crap compared to yours, lol. I've always just used any paper and mechanical/no 2 or sometimes charcoal. Does it make a difference with paper/pencil combos?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

chandito In reply to scherzando [2006-03-30 18:24:06 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much. Well commissions start at $250 and youll be getting what you pay for. All my drawings are highly detailed. Im self taught so im glad that i was able to create my own unique style. All i can tell you is that you need a lot of patience lol. The type of paper does make a difference, i use bristol vellum. This paper is good to blend and it makes darks come out really nice. As for pencils, i mostly use 2b mechanical and 4b for darks. The wild cats that you see will be available as limited edition prints. I still have one more cat to finish, the jaguar. Once that one is done the whole series will be available as giclee prints. If youre interested ill contact you when they are available. Well take care and thanks for the kind words. If you have any more questions, just ask .

You simply nailed it here. I gave you praise on that.
But the small size of the image and the watermarks distract from the user experience.
Your work is already copyrighted once you post it on DevArt (Look under the title next to your username). But other than that, simply please us with more of your excellent drawings!
