This is really awesome! Amazing detail and design!
But why is it in anthro? They don't look very humanoid to me..

I think it was submitted back when there was a bug in the anthro gallery. Thanks for pointing it out, I'll fix it now.

The pattern make this piece seem so etnographical. I like the floating motion of the dragon and wolves too.

Niiiice, I loves. I like the tribal style, it looks so much better than all the regular un-stylized tribal stuff I'm used to. Great job!

Very cool tattoo design! I love the tribal sort of look you gave it. Very nice inking on this one... I'm sure it'll look cool once tattoo'd on.

Ah, it's some game for [link] . It's going to be kind of like an online board game that kids can play with their parents or a friend... All in the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse style and stuff.

BanditRingtail3 [2007-07-03 01:25:00 +0000 UTC]

Nice work, as always. I'll bet this'll make a killer tattoo for the person who ordered it. It'd also look nice on a poster, or one of those bamboo hangings I've seen... at least, I think I've seen 'em... blasted memory...

Thanks! ^.^ Just made me think of ones I'd seen before, like that Chinese calender my grandparents have hanging on their wall in the front entry way. Be pretty cool to see this thing as a scroll...

evilinnocence In reply to ??? [2007-07-02 22:20:06 +0000 UTC]

This is amazing. I love the tribal markings, and very cool color and texture scheme. It would look better as a vector, though, for crisp linework. Still awesome, though.

wow... It's beautiful. I really love it. I will not be getting it inked just yet, I need to get my wolf touched up...and then send you pictures of it before I get this done. I think I may get it inked for my 21st birthday. Thank you so much Cooley!

really reminds me of a story you'd hear about a matial arts master about the lone dragon and the wolf pack. lol awesome job.

There's a story?

Sabaku-Sama In reply to cooley [2007-07-02 03:33:18 +0000 UTC]

yeah

It's about a man that has been banished from his monk hood of the Tigers because of his different style in martial arts. on his journey to find his inner self he is attacked by several bandits which are rouges but fight with cooperation and deadly skill. They are quoted to fighting like wolves that have been starved. The lone monk loses, and the story ends that way. But yeah there is one lol.

Very cool. If I wasn't completely opposed to getting a tattoo (and if I weren't deathly afraid of needles), I'd definitely get this. Great job!

If you ever get really ambitious, this would look great as a layered paper-cutting...
Excellent Work. If you ever decide to create a graphic-novel, this style would be so enjoyable to look at... All the Best!

Google Chinese paper cutting, or Sherenschnitte (or something like it, it's a Dutch word)
I used to do it all the time, but I like painting better...
All the Best!
