One of the things I love the most about your work is the toning and the highlighting of the musculature.
The hands are also fantastic! Very smooth and really pleasant to look at!
I could go on and on, but (I hope!) you already know how good you are!

Thanks, Hannah. I'm always messing with how I color. I don't do it exactly the same way twice. I am very proud of my hands and musculature. Been working on it for a while. It is also one of the reasons I like comics, it makes you draw things and positions you normally would not.

Thanks again for the compliments!

Fantastic pose, focused on a very good-looking face. Her species and build work together well, and the colors of the piece work well together. Great jorb! I seriously think that you're one of the better artists around when it comes to diversity of species and execution.

Thanks, Jodimest! I got pretty lucky with the face and I am getting a lot of practice with the different species lately especially the "hooved" species. ~Ebonyleopard gave me a compliment recently on the number of hooved species in the zodiac comic. I guess they are kind of the minority especially for female characters. Maybe I should branch out more into the reptillian and avian species soon.

You like the colors? I was a little worried about them honestly.

Yeah the thing with hooved characters is the fact that
not too many artists will attempt to draw them.

They'll usually avoid drawing them all together.
Because yes they're different and challenging.

It's easier to draw the pawed characters for most artists and stuff.

To those who draw both pawed and hooved. I compliment you because it shows your skill and versatility.

Yeah I do compliment on that as well.

Also I compliment and praise you for not slutting the characters out.

Thanks. I'm really not into that and there is enough of that already on DA and FA

Welcome! I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Question: her stats list her as being part leopard. Is this supposed to be evident in her fur pattern?

Also, What did you think of the Scarlet Bow sketch?

The leopard part is in the teeth.

Fixed the teeth. It is tiny, but it is there.

Ah. I think I missed that in drawing it but I remember reading it. I'll see if I can add that in. her mouth is very small and hard to notice in this pic though.
