Description
Video: [link]Drawing of a Gemsbok (Oryx) I did yesterday since my campus had a rare snow day off. There's not... much to say I guess. There's a lot of things about this I dislike and know could be improved. Came very close to submitting it in my main gallery but I just don't feel it's good enough. It can chill in scraps.
Been so dissatisfied with my art lately it's ridiculous. I love art school like crazy but it makes you so very aware of your flaws.

Wow - this is beautiful. I'm a big fan of the Gemsbok myself, and was thrilled when i seen this piece of art. ^^

I haven't seen really any oryx art here on dA -- it's nice to see such a fine piece of one <3
I like the contrasts of the blues and purples with the pinks and pale yellow-oranges. Well done with the composition, as well as with the gemsbok itself.
Seems like a lot of art students feel the same way, but I guess there's always gonna be flaws or someone better, especially in the art industry, but best thing to do is keep on truckin' towards the end goal.

Oryyyx <3 This is amazing, I really love how you did the colours in this piece, the contrast of the blue/purple and the beige is very neat. The oryx itself looks really well done, the shading absolutely blows me away!

Oooh, boy, new stuff from Kaylink! It actually took me a minute to realize this was yours. It looks so much different from a lot of your work (in a good way). It's cool that it's not another wolf too. It's fun to see something different from you. Great work!

Wow, this is really beautiful and so...gorgeously simple! I love Oryx[es?] so much hehe<3 But this is very pretty, especially the choice of colors with the blue and lights--especially the little flying sand details! Just gorgeous

I love the colouring on these animals, it's just so clean cut and beautiful <3 the head is particularly impressive and your night sky looks so cold, yet welcoming...I like it. This whole picture just seems to capture some emotion, be it lonliness, hope or sadness, I really kinda like it, except for the fact DIS IS NUT A WULF!! I AM DISAPPOINT.

just because I am curious, is it supposed to have that hump? I've never seen that animal before some I'm not sure...

The bulls tend to have a slight hump [link] I exaggerated the neck's curves here a bit

Ah! I see, yeah, it does look like you exaggerated it a bit, causing the slight hump to look bigger than it should. That's okay, you'll know for next time. =^_^=

The contrast adds a lot to the composition. This makes the pic look absolutely lovely)

This is rad, what are you doing not putting this in your main gallery? The coloring is amazing!

Aww, well, I really like it. X3 Art school probably does make you "so very aware" of your flaws, but being an artist in general does that too. XP
