Good lord, this has become my single most elaborate work ever, yes even more than my 60 hours picture. Believe it or not, I have been working on this thing for over 2 1/2 months, here and there.

When summer started, I wanted to do a really lovely picture for the season. To keep the story short, the foreground with the ladies was done quickly, but the background kicked me into a hole of no concept and hence no motivation for quite some time and I did hard getting the move on with the project. But quitting was no option at any point.

So the background is not the biggest masterpiece there is, but it works quite nicely. It's anyway only there, that those ladies are being presented in a whole and full picture. While we can argue about the good and bad aspects of the background, those 3 female characters are highly pleasing my eye, I can say that. The background was a major pain in the ass to work out, but keeping working on the 3 angels was a lovely task. As you can see, I was fancy for a lot of mix in there, concerning species and race. I wanted to do something human again, and also I wanted to show my international spirit and include a black lady in there. She was receiving a lot of work, but it paid off. I am sure, chocolate would taste like a pretzel compared to her :b The swimming pool setting was the proper idea from the beginning on to have it believable, that all of them wouldn't be waering much and including some wet skin =3 And I don't know if it matters to you knowing it, but the 3 on the bench are friends, who have some nice time at the swimming pool. Black lady is totally enthusiastically telling fox lady something awesome she just experienced, when fox lady and white lady were just relaxing on the bench with some ice cream. White lady just keeps relaxing, not giving too much attention to what black lady has to say :b The girl in the background is not related to them, just being there, filling out some empty space in the picture with even more female loveliness and tanning her back...... through fur....... whatever, bite me XD

Since I started to work with Photoshop since I guess 9 years back, I never used a different version than Photoshop Elements 2.0 from 2002. It offers everything (even more than today's Elements version, which are sucking balls - believe me, I BOUGHT Photoshop Elements 10 for quite the money and never used it again after a few tries) and is absolutely reliable, and also doesn't bother me with fucking social media components **do you want to publish this picture on FuckBook/Twatter/SocialMediaBullshit#276 right out of your graphics program?** Are you fucking kidding me? I digress, so anyway.... I finally came to experience the first actual problem with this old version. It's made for 32bits operating systems only, so it's max RAM usage is limited. My computer has 8Gigs RAM, but this Photoshop can not use more than 1.650MB of RAM. And dude, those were highly exceeded when having this file opened, so it needed to be outsourced to the hard drive. That caused quite the opening and saving times and also sometimes blocked me when using filters. This picture was the heaviest job in technical means, that I ever did. You know, because of the RAM usage limitations, and doesn't make a difference anymore, how powerful your machine is. One day, I need to switch to a newer Photoshop version, but let's see about this. And FYI, the size of the PSD file of this whole picture ended at 270MB when it was finished.

Don't forget to click on download. The display size here is 1280x720 pixels, but this picture contains so many details, that even FullHD wasn't enough to choose. So I uploaded it in 4K (4096x2304 pixels) which - to make quite a comparison here - is only one fourth of the full original resolution of the picture (8K) but still more than full resolution of my 60 hours picture (3200x2400). It's almost getting redicolous.

Overall I am absolutely happy with the result. Well, that's only natural. If it wouldn't have been looking sweet when being drawn as a sketch, I wouldn't bother spending so much of digital time on it. Damn it, my nerd passion for fox ladies and my time consuming methods for digital work are eating up quite some free time......... But well, there I am glad having my screen tablet. That tool was not being used for a single pixel in this picture, but many pictures, basically drawn with that thing, will follow from now on. It will not be very soon, that I start working on such a damned complex thing again. At least, I am not planning it.

So, as usual, I hope you will find as much enjoyment in this piece as I do. It was.................. special.
