Description
Hello yes. I am dead-ass getting all of these things off of this list. I am eternally sorry for the embarassingly long wait, The time between has been quite..uhhhh...full of challenges and ordeals, but that's not an excuse. I hope you enjoy it nonetheless! I ran into some design conflicts between the reference art so I hope I interpreted the mouth accurately :,) Let me know because I think I can fix it easily enough. I am happy that I have at least improved between then and now and I hope it shows

omg *im SO SORRY about the late reply* but oml, thank you SO much for this handsome boy!! The shading and detailing in this is just outstanding and i adore the light blue color choice for the background honestly! but omg that area around his eye, i literally cant stop staring at how soft it is but it holds such a strong shape ;-; And the damn fluffies, his neck and head fluff looks so soft i want to run my hands through it ;^;

*echoes saying sorry for my late reply :,) *
I'm so glad you like it! This was a really really cool character to work on and I do plan on amending the teeth issue when I get some free time, it really shouldn't be difficult at all! I still have the working file :> And thank you! I do like the sort of atmosphere this piece has and as you could already tell I enjoyed diving into the nitty gritty of that eye area. I'd like to do more pieces where I get the opportunity to paint minute anatomical forms like that.

Thankyou so much! It's 100% Photoshop from start to finish on a canvas a little over 1k originally at 300 dpi resolution. My tool is a Wacom Intuos Pro Medium. Hope that helps!

Ahhhh thank you man. I'm working hard at it all the time. There's a bunch of weird practice things and company tryouts I haven't shown behind all of this. It's part of me being behind, trying to land a job so I can support myself and stop struggling (as much).

Dude I feel you. Life has definitely been crazy on all fronts. Even I really don't have a lot of time for shit if I'm honest.
But dang, hopefully it all works out cuz damn it. I want my friends to do well and be happy.Β
If you ever need a small break, whether for coffee or what not, lemme know.

You got it too ya know haha!Β
But yeah, still trying to sell him. Great horse, but thereβs a lot of stupid people that Iβve been having to deal with over it all. Heβs under priced but people seem to think heβs too expensive too. Itβs more or less insulting on how they go about telling me that so itβs just been a lesson in patience.

People just want a good deal so bad it seems.

Not even. They want a solid horse, for project horse prices. :/

Aw well, the design colors weren't up to me! They're just very nice. I am glad I went with that blue instead of a dark color though. Thank you Sinni!

This so gorgeous you did an amazing job with the fur !

Thankyou! Fur is really fun to paint. I have a few method for rendering it, but this one was very painterly and fun

What a beautiful portrait! Your work with fur never ceases to amaze me, it always looks like it is full of lively movement. And your definition of the facial muscles is so inspiring to me. Always a pleasure to see a piece from you in my inbox, thank you for sharing. I hope to see some of your personal art in the future as well as your commissions! *hugs*

Ah wow! Thank you very much for the kind words. I feel like I've painted fur so much now that I've just got (at least) this workflow down to a science. At least in terms of what I want it to do and look like! Not as much fine detail in this one like rogue hairs and the like, but the painterly feeling sat pretty nice with me so I left it! Musculature and anatomical definition is becoming a big thing I enjoy picking out. I do a lot of pet portraiture so those little details have been sneaking into my work since I like them so much!
