Description Random gift art for because I just love Jenna's design and wanted to draw her <3 Coatimundi's are amazing. I needed something to practice coloring traditionally again on a standard size picture. Not my best, but at least I didn't completely lose the ability to use colored pencils lol.

=Torafox rescanned it with her scanner, which did a heck of a lot better than mine haha, so here's the new version. c:

References: [link] and a bunch of random flower pics from google search. If you search 'exotic flowers', I'm sure you'll find them. xD

Coatimundiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! Great work on the fur and the pose, and I love the expression of mystery
I'm not too fond of the flowers to be honest, but I suppose it's just my personal taste, maybe it's just the bright colours. They're still very well drawn though, of course! <3

Thank you <3
I know what you mean, the scanner just... completely and utterly murdered them. It made them so overly saturated and all the nice yellow oranges turned red somehow, I was so mad that I couldn't fix that Dx I really hope I can get a new scanner for christmas that scans colors better so I can re-scan this.

Vannjaren In reply to Kasaurus [2011-11-17 18:06:14 +0000 UTC]

No problem, and yeah, it probably looks so much better in real life. <3
Plus I'm just not a fan of flowers in general - that's not your fault though XD!

I'm not the biggest fan of flowers either, but I thought they'd fit the character xD

aah! so pretty!

she looks so cute. it doesn't look like your scanner did too much to it, I think that the fur and colors still turned out very nice
the additions of the flowers was also a very nice touch

Haha, people may think that.. until they've seen the original, even my mom says the scanner killed it lol

really? the original must be unimaginably beautiful then, because this piece is soo pretty!

Kasaurus In reply to Tillydae [2011-11-17 03:06:03 +0000 UTC]

Haha, I wouldn't say unimaginably beautiful, but the colors and details are better and smoother in the original xD The biggest pet peeve with traditional art for artists I believe is the scanner not scanning very well

Tillydae In reply to Kasaurus [2011-11-17 03:07:53 +0000 UTC]

i totally agree, it's always tragic when traditional artists spend so much time and effort perfecting their work, and then the scanner destroys it
it's always the worst with colored pencils too.

Kasaurus In reply to Tillydae [2011-11-17 03:16:46 +0000 UTC]

Exactly D: I really want a good scanner for Christmas that will scan art better xD

Thank you so much! <3

From what I know that seems correct, though I'm not entirely sure what the agua colored one at the bottom is, I found it on the google image search 'exotic flowers', and thought it was pretty and matched the colors good enough, so I added it, but sadly, it wasn't labeled. D:

Holy.mother.of... I don't even... *gushes into tears*
This has to be one of the nicest, most random acts of kindness ever showered upon me!
And your art! ZOMFG SO BEAUTIFUL!
I'm definitely going to have to print this baby out and put it on my bulletin board... (I have a giant one on my room wall for "works of honor".)
Thank.. omg so many times over, thank you!

Now... you DO know you're going to get something thrown back at you, right? I'm the weirdo who everytime I get something I have to give something else back. Yeah... the person who at Christmas over kills the thank yous and stuff? Yeah... that's me.

Kasaurus In reply to Torafox [2011-11-16 07:13:24 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome, and thank you as well <3 I'm so glad you like it! ;u;
She's such a beautiful character, I had so much fun drawing her

Aww ;o; I feel the same way though, I almost always feel like I have to give something back when I get a gift, so I can relate, even though it's not obligatory xD And I just like giving random gifts, though I never expect anything in return. My to do list has been haunting me for so long, that I haven't been able to do gifts for people for forever, so now that it feels manageable again, I started making some gifts :'D
Maybe if possible, I can try to ship it around Christmas if you'd like the original. I feel like the scanner killed it so much, I want you to see the real one instead haha

Aww, thank you so much ;u; <33 I love it!
I love how you drew her paws, particularly the closest front one, and how you made her markings glow The selective fur texture gives it an interesting effect as well. c:
