Description For :wilder:.

Because without you, I wouldn't even be drawing today, and I realized I haven't done anything beyond a sketch for you in far too long.

Thank you for your friendship, your encouragement, sunny days of Howl-And-Go-Seek armed with waterguns, late nights of icecream and arting giggles, and for always being there when I need you.



(( The original will be on its way soon, along with squeaky cheese. =] ))

No critiques, please, I tried something new with this one, and the tree is SUPPOSED to be stylized and kinda funky. The original is much larger, this is cropped by the Evil Scanner of Doom, and as always, looks way better in real life. That, and my light and dark umbers completely and totally died on me before I finished the brown fur, let alone started on the giant block of chocolate (yes, I know. It's supposed to be a stone, but it looks like a giant block of chocolate).

<3 Thank you! I need to learn more variation in my coloring. I use the same pencils for "gold" everywhere. *grins*

Works out, since her coat is supposed to be autumny. *winks* Or at least, that's what I tell myself.

What can I say? I'm forcing myself not to just nab her and squish her into itty bitty bits! X3 SO beautiful...so soothing *melts into a happy puddle and plays with one of the yellow leaves while shes on the ground next to wilder* Not to mention those edible paws! Love, love, love! LOVE.

Oh my lord, that is so beautiful. I wish I could use Prismas like you do, or at least just 1/5th of your talent X3

WhiskerWing In reply to RedOctober90 [2006-04-03 23:02:39 +0000 UTC]

*gigglehugs* oh, but you've got talent in SPADES girlie, I can't even come close to your digital stuff or your humanoids. Besides, I LOVE your colored pencil style. That's actually my favorite kind, but my scanner misbehaves unless I smother the paper with waxy color, so I've had to learn to adapt. =]

RedOctober90 In reply to WhiskerWing [2006-04-04 01:01:21 +0000 UTC]

I hate my scanner too, it always pixelates my images because their soo bright and smooth. Stupid scanners. X3 I'm still learning the photoshop, so your better than I at that and my people aren't the best yet, still working on anatomy (especially males, they just don't have that wonderous curve, lol)

Hehehe, it's taken me...ummm...four years to get where I am in Photoshop just from experimenting.

And I still have a LOOooOoOot to learn.

wyrdwing [2006-04-03 17:52:54 +0000 UTC]

cool...
That tree actually reminds me one of those trees you'd see in old japanese drawings. Love how the colours match the fur.

WhiskerWing In reply to wyrdwing [2006-04-03 22:59:47 +0000 UTC]

Score! It's supposed to be sort of bonsai based. ^^

And thank you! I was a little worried that I'd overdone the whole "color scheme" thing. *giggle*

poothos [2006-04-03 16:50:58 +0000 UTC]

I like how the bg is the same colour as the fg. I do have one crit, it's little... but... since you said you don't want... >>; meh. xD
anyhow I love the texture on all of this, the rock he's sitting on and the leaves and bark and fur. allsosmexy. +fav!

WhiskerWing In reply to poothos [2006-04-03 22:59:13 +0000 UTC]

You can give me the critique, Whivit-dear. =] Although I probably already know what it is. XD Maybe you've got a suggestion on how to fix some of the stuff I see...that's the hard part for me. *lovemuffins*

Thank you, Whivit!!!

poothos In reply to WhiskerWing [2006-04-04 11:41:44 +0000 UTC]

Really? okie... well, I think the tree looks a bit like a rock or boulder, so adding a bit of brown to it (go over it softly with a brown pencil, nyaa?) should help? I know it's supposed to be the same colours as the chara so you could use the same browns that his furr is. <333333
