Description My first try at a tablet! This took me just today to make. Hmmmm... I need more practice D8 but just thought I'd share. It doesn't make sense, don't worry. I need to learn more about light sources and correct shadow casts :\ :/

And I know there are no red or blue highlights on the feather. It's symbolic or something!

As always, your fur texture and things are just amazing. Love it! Tablets are hard to get use to at first- but then you'll totally rock at it- and your art will be 100x's better! (and it already is so awesome, we'll all be blown away- like... far far away! lol). You rock. ^^ Can I be jealous?

Oh goodness, this is beautiful. The emotion portrayed here is wonderful, and I love that it's not just a stereotypical falling picture. It's very unique, and incredibly appealing to the eye. I just stared at it for a few minutes, actually. o_o Guh, I LOVE IT. The lighting looks lovely, and I ADORE the detail of the fur and the tears.
And wow, FIRST tablet drawing? You're amazing.

This is a stunning picture.

The fur effects are lovely once again, though they do seem different with a tablet than your normal style. Here, actually, I like the way you've got the air bubbles trapped on the eyes and mouth. It nearly looks upside-down, actually, because the 'floor' of your water looks like a surface. But it works and actually adds an interesting effect to the pic, making it a little more 'surreal' looking.

Take care,
-LS

Yikes; on another note, I'm surprised that you have over 40 favorites on this piece, yet only a half-page of comments. People are lazy, eh?

For your first tablet drawing this is very, very well done Shaddie. The fur texture looks very good and I think, even if it was an experimental piece, the lighting you gave it, adds to the overall affect. My only critque, I think it was done on purpose, the mouth just seems out of place to me o: That's pretty much it though, the feather is very fluffy too. Awesome as always <3

Yeah! Originally I wasn't going to have his teeth showing but then I had a problem with certain layers overlapping other layers and the program I was using didn't have a HISTORY BRUSH tool so that really sucked, and I got too lazy to fix it xD butyea. Thanks, Kitkitkit <3
