Description The fox is scared of something, possibly to the point of murder. Unusual surroundings will do that to you. A somewhat cartoonish Leo picture inspired heavily by Giger and by this song: [link]

Furrealism is in action.

Karla-chan mentioned you.

Well, shucks, I am a Texan's daughter, and a cowgirl
who likes her .30-.30 Remington deer rifle, and
I can appreciate a gun, even got a deer, legally,
on a recent hunt with my brother, nephew, hubbie,
and a visiting member of the Canadian Army on leave
from the Afghanistan war my US Army nephew is also
a part of.

The soldiers each got a deer and I got one...some of
the deer meat was given to a local food bank to help
out a lot of out-of-work people here in Michigan.

K-chan is FANTASTIC; she asked us to visit you
and I visited EACH of y'all, well worth the visit!

Sounds like a good time had by all. That's very good of you to help out your food bank. I've skated close to real poverty a few times so I can appreciate that. Never been hunting myself. I am a fan of gun filled movies tho ^^

I really appreciate it. I did the same when i saw her journal

I'm a Christian lady, leo, y'all help out folks in
need, learnt that from my girlhood.

It is a THRILL to go hunting, WHY should men have
all the fun?

Love a good GUN-movie, too,

How did you make it. [link]

The foreground figure began as a pen drawing. The background is a pattern created from several photos of electric circuits alternated and repeated and switched up a bit, then embossed. Everything was done at 90% opacity to allow a view of the equalized drawing beneath (this was Photoshop CS2). I cut out the background away from the subject to give the effect he was embedded in it and applied to dark and light to suggest metal. A few metal textures I made were placed in it at low opacity. from there I painted in the craters and the blisters on the background. All the rest was paint brush.

That's not a bad place to be. I think its more impressive when I person can make art without going digital.

Tee-Hee! I don't know much about Metal Gear, but I used the exclamation point because I knew it was risky and I need to take more risks.

Love the textures in this. It looks so much like metal, so much like silver. Great piece of work...again!

Thanks! I'm cautiously optimistic about my improvement with textures. I'm weaning myself off of stock lately. The real test would be to do something non-reflective.

foximatosis [2008-09-02 12:15:35 +0000 UTC]

Forshortening is excellent! The fox looks like he's hesitating to take the shot because the angle of which the gun is held is lowered, this conveys a feeling of inferiority, you captured it mighty fine. The lack of any colour suggests that the character hasn't found the answer to what he is looking for and potrays the feeling of hopelessness. Anyways what program did you use? I like this...so a is in order.

Thanks so very much for adding this to your faves and for giving critique. It's actually kind of difficult to portray my character without color since I'm so used to over-saturating him.

Over saturating him?! Oh dear..I wonder how he feels.
