Frustrations and Sketches
15 years ago
Some days, I admit art makes me feel like I'm hitting my head against a wall. I spent all day working on a page from this thar comic--tweaking, erasing, re-drawing, struggling, returning, editing, fussing, erasing again--and seven hours later, I find that I've actually left less lines on the page than I started with this morning. Blah!
Anyway, while I take a brief break from the current artistic predicament, I'm open for suggestions to draw stuff.
Feel free to post something in a comment or a link to your character's reference or what not. It'd be nice to feel somewhat productive today!
No guarantees I'll draw your suggestion, of course...though there's not much to loose, either! We'll see where the pencil and the grey matter go...
As for suggestions, ehm... No idea really! Pretty much anything coming from your pencils is niiiiice so it's all good!
How about a certain blue tiger playing around with his liquid metal weapon?

It can take on pretty much any form so ya can try out whatever ya like with it. :)
Good luck with your doodlings! =D

How about something involving a fox, a porkchop or porkchops, and an otter.
Random as hell, indeed. Would be very interesting to see what you come up with.

Mine character is Khari: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3273822/
If you feel up to it anyway, maybe draw my character drinking a can of "Coke" (I love Coke)
Here's a ref of a drawing you did for me a while back: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/1141542/
how the mane sits on her back
Of how the spots sit on the tail
For earrings and the arm thingies
Because who wouldn't take advantage of this opportunity? :) To be more fair and less specific, if you don't choose to draw specific characters, hooves in general are nice.
Sorry art has been maddening, though. :(
I suggest that he/she be wearing sunglasses; for they are a basic, badass accessory.
I keep saying you should draw more dragons.

Good luck with your frustrations, whatever you decide to do. :>
Some decent refs of him are here, and you're welcome to poke around the rest of the site if you care to.

Not that I'm complaining, you draw males very well. As for suggestion(s) of what to draw, I dunno, mayhaps a female character? --> http://www.furaffinity.net/view/1222171/
Or maybe one of your husky gals from your Nordguard comic?
Would sexy lesbian art of them be too non-canon? =D

What's great is that even though you find yourself blocked, you still find a way to get around that wall; that's pretty devoted if you ask me.
And good luck with the art frustrations I'm all too familiar with them, but the best thing to do is try and be a C+ student rather than an A+ student. Knowing you're shooting for something below the bar can help relieve the pressure, even if you never actually make a C+ and always get A's! Just a little piece of inspiration I read the other day that I thought I'd pass on. :) Not sure if it even made sense, haha.
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/2028005/
but anhtroized:
Annie Oakley (Cougar)
Frank Butler (wolf)
If Teagan doesn't draw this, i certainly will just see Franky as a buffalo!
I just went with Wolf, standing up for my own Species an all, lol.
Side effects of drawing otters my lead to random "D'awwws," smiling, seafood craving, eating dinner off your belly and oily fur.
Ask your doctor if drawing otters is right for you.
here are some ref pics of teo.. X3

Champford created a rocking new fursona for me that has yet to be arted outside this pic http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3627600/ he's the night one, obviously the coolest
Maybe something to commission you for later, mm? :3
Reading the previous comments, I kinda like the idea of seeing more girls from you, as well :]
Anyways as for a suggestions, how about an alien critter, doing whatever you please?
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3646450
Have fun!
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3610343/
How about either one of these two shooting some hoops.. or playing one on one... hehe... not much of an idea but hey... *chuckle and smiles* or... have one of your characters have a one on one play (whatever sport you deem worthy) with either of the two down below... the outcome can be your decision ^^ *grins*

Hope you the best and do take care! *smiles and waves*
Well, if you feel like drawing more lions! A white one to be more precise you could try drawing meeee LOL.

There, some silly references. (the facial hair, mane and glasses are how i look like now, with the exception of the body which is still the same!)
Have fun with whatever you might decide to do!! :P
... Or draw cheetahs (purely because they are so full of WIN) molesting a lion, as they are kinda sexy too :D (and most lions are more QUEEN than King) ;)
I don't think you ever drew a cheetah on top so far, so..well. That'd be something different! :3
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3641576
The theme could be "Taking body mod too far".

Note: my original concept of the character has digitigrade feet, but Nathalie made them plantigrade, and they look nice that way, too.

As for suggestions I'm not sure I can help.
So yeah, I'm a white lion, black mane, 6'1", wears glasses, sorta steampunky. Anything you'd feel like drawing pose-wise, so long as it's clean (as in, no full nudity - -- at least NO bits showing, or any interaction with them :<)

(second link is porn... sorry it's the most recent picture of my character and has the proper markings, im transitioning all of my stuff to
Gelding?
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3618541/
it would be the honor of a lifetime.
But here's an idea = take a fav scene from a film, and either just draw it out, or fur-ify it.
Example: Jay and Silent Bob vs Cocknocker scene from the Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back film.
A lion sneaking up behind a bunny that's picking up Easter Eggs, but to classic cartoon style, he knows he's being watched with a kind of "Uh oh.." look on his face o.o

How about this guy here? If you feel particularly productive, how about in an Assassin's Creed-esque outfit?
Thanks for even thinking about it! :D

http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3645593/
i think this should be a thing what do you think
recent photo i took back in december. soooooo cute :3
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3466990/
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3607011 will throw my hat in the ring, couldn't hurt.
and ya. sometimes work is 1 step forward, 2 steps back. blagh
Pick me plz? x3
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3492053 is my reference.
Since I need a sufficiently cool Idea, Locker room sex. Who doesn't love that. I dont care with what or how. You could draw candy canes coming out of my ass and nose and I'd be happy.
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/717662/ or http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3348355/ !
Standing at the stern of the ship, plucking petals from a rose and dropping them into the wake. Doesn't matter who...
And seeing as you suggested references... http://www.furaffinity.net/view/2593176/
You could also throw in ED209, maybe fallen over and flailing helplessly.
Anywho, if you're still going at whatever time in the morning it i for you, i don't think i've ever seen a full, normal dragon from you, that'd be pretty interesting :3
sugerstions...humm...I'v got a far few charcters..(too many really, lol)
*thinks but is lacking coffee this morn*
I'd suggest to draw
As There's no Snow in hawaii, Just Lush gold sand, surf and sun.
The character is © to myself
(played by my 'friend' who's personality fitted him the most)
suggestions based on the Activities of kanoa the surf lion:
1: Drinking sex on the beach with a sexy male/female
2: getting into "trouble" with a rather suspicious looking rottweiler police officer
3: Kanoa looking rather freaked as a "friendly" looking shark has the surfer in his sights. Perhaps on a rock or clung to his surfboard upright as its about to fall back into the water.
4: That or continue the fan-fic scenario i made of Kanoa and Nickel. here
If Your interested in a few different Characters I have feel free to brows:
Whisper the Dragon Exspresions
Myth (forest guardian and trickster) head shot
Senka 'shadow' lupita (aka my fursona) wolf
(ferral sheet) (Pirate costume)
Others
....hope you find inspiration and motivation amigo. Nothing like doing something different to ease the creative mind.
I'v recently started going back onto Deviantart to get away from the anthro side of art life. seams to be working slightly, as i almost fogot how to draw normal no-anthro lions and animals, lol.
In anycase, I wont object if you want to try your hand at a crazy fire-wielding lioness warrior =P

If you are still looking for suggestions, here's a drawing that a good friend of mine drew which is my first ever fursona concept:
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3321723/
Life drawing usually does the trick, gestures-going back to the roots and the basics, that kinda thing.
But if you're wanting randomness maybe draw a Sakewoozle
I like doodling that long body. :D
Good luck! Happy sketchings!

it will be nice to see something really girly on my best yugioh card -rainbow dragon- AKA gay pride dragon
sil vous plait?
if not you could try something like this if you like it.

*Flops over the mental wall to meet his friends on the other side and knuckle bumps em* just keep on truckin.
Maybe something more exotic? Ringtail lemur, komodo dragon (Love 'em, especially after seeing their segment on Discovery's Life.)...miriqui monkey? There's hardly any drawings of monkeys in the fandom. Sea life could be interesting...
Or, take your sketchbook to the closest museum of fine art and wander. You'll be inspired in no time :)
-a werewolf doing a backflip maybe?
-a dragon catching a flying pray (like a big bird or a griphon or something like that)
well anyway, good look with your comic XD
I think it's the having to draw a thing that makes it harder for an artist.. we're free spirits! ((hull, we have all have that MASSIVE exam or 'way overdue artwork' to finish in the next 24-hours and it's just SOOOOOO TEMPTING to draw other random crap! X'3 ))
It's in our nature to be uselessly inspired! >|'D
as for something to draw................*? -what about something from the key words: "Bacon Hunting"?

If you like quirks, just imagine him liking hot cocoa about as much as I've heard that Blotch leopard enjoys beer.
Ffff yesssss 8D
Feral though! :3
Or something with belgian beer/chocolates :0
like a mountain rescue guy decked out in his gear, but being a lifeguard at a pool instead. I don't know but just random swaps that are amusing
my sona. or any skunk for that matter ^^'
or if your looking for something more piratical, what your doing now may actually help. not working for the project a bit and taking a breather on it may help reduce the stress its giving ya.( but you know tat seeing as your doing it now, or were i assume ^^")
Hope it all turns out ok for ya, i'm actually eager to see the comic when it comes out. good luck to ya ^^"
