FA+

1) I like when you draw feline transformation sequences.
2) I wish you drew more feline transformation sequences. :)
3) Nah, I don't mind so much for fanart. But you do a good job of it regardless.
4) Same as above.
5) I love how you draw females. You're really gifted in that.
6) If you were to do a comic of/about a sequence about a group of women transforming into the various big cats,, I would be soooo happy! Alas, I have no money for commissioning... D:
7) I think that you already know about my feline TF fetish. I don't need to elaborate :)
8) My favorite part of your work is the final product! Duh! :D
CONS:
I'm not going to do this. I understand that living off of commission money as an artist is tough, especially in these economic times. Plus, the art's good enough.
OTHER:
13) When I think of your art I think woohoo! A new update!
14) If I had to describe your work I'd say you do a great job on what you do, and I eagerly anticipate any new updates that appear in my art tracker. Keep it up!
2)I wish you drew more non mammalian work. The furballs are fine but a slightly broader catagory would be nice.
3)Ambivelence: I don't mind it and i see nothing wrong with some fanart if done well, but i would not think any less of you if you stopped
4)I wish you did more original art of these characters:
5)I love how you draw the gradual shift from human to the newly aquired form.
6)If you were to do a comic of/about a female aquatic transformation I would be soooo happy! However, my income is limited.
7)If I could get you to draw anything I'd get you to draw the in process shots.
8)My favorite part of your work is the flow.
CON:
9)I hate when you draw Demons, they just don't seem that interesting to me and are overdone.
10)I wish you drew less one shot TFs were we don't see the end product.
11)Stop drawing Generic Fantasy Warriors!
OTHER:
13)When I think of your art I think a nice flowing style with a good sense of overall direction in the process of transformation.
14)If I had to describe your work I'd say that you are definately one of the Best TF artists out there, creative with plenty of technical skill.
PRO:
1)I like when you draw characters from the university universe.
2)I wish you drew more ravers!
3)I wish you drew more fanart of these series/characters:
4)I wish you did more original art of these characters: Shay :P :P :P :P Actually, Theresa is a really cool character of yours.
5)I love how you draw facial expressions.
6)If you were to do a comic of/about superheroes or university students I would be soooo happy!
7)If I could get you to draw anything I'd get you to draw your mate, sometime! What does he look like?
8)My favorite part of your work is how concerned you are with the character. Every character you do has a personality all their own.
CON:
9)I hate when you draw a cool character from a setting that sounds interesting, but then rarely revisit the setting. You come up with some great ideas for various universes, it would be cool to see more done with them. :) For instance the university Theresa goes to, and "Vulpine Labs" (you changed the name, but I forget what the new name is). It would be great to see more done with those!
10)I wish you drew more. (hah!)
11)Don't stop drawing!
OTHER:
13)When I think of your art I think :| but then, I loled.
14)If I had to describe your work I'd say, "Angrboda's work is highly refined. She makes great use of the canvas, making the character and the scene come to life. Her color selection is exceptional. She has a great deal of versatility--having her own mature style, but also quite capable of working in a different style altogether if the image requires it. Very adaptable and imaginative."
Ooh, I should have mentioned the colour work! I like to define this as, "Knows when not to use #00FF00.... and when to rock the hell out of it."
PRO:
1)I like when you draw anything that's not a plain profile. (Fortunately, that's frequently.)
2)I wish you drew more superhero or alien stuff.
4)I wish you did more original art of these characters: Any of your transformed folks, perhaps interacting with the next victi– er, volunteer....
5)I love how you draw with different line weights. (Seriously, you have a subtle and thus-far effective grasp of it.)
6)If you were to do a comic of/about a group of hesitant newly-superpowered folks I would be soooo happy! (Yeah, I know, I'm predictable.)
7)If I could get you to draw anything I'd get you to draw a couple of the characters from Thirteen Ribbons. (And perhaps once some other artists come through on stuff I've already pitched money at....)
8)My favorite part of your work is the way you shade stuff; stylised but still reasonable. (I hate when folks shade skin the same as polished rubber. Why bother with the rubber, then? *shifty-eyed*)
OTHER:
13)When I think of your art I think highly competent character design and transformation themes.
14)If I had to describe your work I'd say it's like two pastries perched on the arms of Michel Foucault's favorite chair. (Sorry, my metaphor circuits are glitching.)
I really liked the characters, and would love to draw you some fanart to kind of pay you back in happiness for the entertainment I got from reading. Unforunately, and this probably sounds asinine but it's totally true, I am so incredibly lame at visualizing things that I read and am also very wary of misrepresenting things visually that fanart for any kind of literature is something I undertake with a lot of trepidation.
Hopefully someday soon I'll work up the gumption to doodle you something; until then, for the love of stuff, keep writin'. I'll keep readin'!
You're under no obligation to draw anything, but I'll admit that I'd likely explode of sheer *SQUEE!* if you were to. Perhaps someday! I have considered putting together a sort of informal guide to the look of the Six Below uniforms, since I've totally avoided putting much detail into them in the stories themselves.
Thank you so much for the compliments. They really mean a lot to me! I promise there will be more writing; I'm trying to ramp back up, but there are so many distractions right now that it's hard to just settle into the headspace to sit and bang it out. Soon, though! I'm dedicated to getting through this thing, and it's only a third done so far....
Don't feel pressured to write more soon just because people like it. That almost never works for me, artwise. I'm happy to wait!
Also, just as an aside, I am SO interested in Bell (he's my favorite character) and the whole nanovirus thing and how it relates to his parents and that colony/cult. I love the little tidbits you're throwing the audience there, but not explaining it all at once. But there are a lot of things I loved, so I'll stop fangirling your ear off :P
1 & 2) I, of course, petition the house for more catgirls. =-P
3)I wish you drew more fanart of these series/characters: Normally I'd say screw the copyright character stuff but you seem to have a handle on the couple of things you've done so far like Mona Lisa!
4)I wish you did more original art of these characters: I think you've already got more of your character art like Valerie on the backburner, but seeing any of your older TF girls revisited would be neato.
5)I love how you draw - Hands and facial expressions!
6)If you were to do a comic of/about--- an expedition finding an oasis which turns people into desert animals --- I would be soooo happy! - Because I am lazy and haven't drawn it myself yet - xD
7)If I could get you to draw anything I'd get you to draw - Yeah, speaking of that, let's see a camel TF
8)My favorite part of your work is how people may be surprised but generally enjoy their transformation, with hints that in your longer tf comic ideas that you might explore more negative or unpleasant transformations as well.
CON:
Ugh I'll roll together the crit like I did for Leucrotta and throw some bricks in this glass house of mine and say that you should draw more props/backgrounds for your inked/coloured one shots. And yes, I know I am one to be saying that. xD
11)Stop drawing ________________! -Seriously? Why did they include this question, we are not the art police!
OTHER:
13)When I think of your art I think -Oh God why can't I draw like this?!
14)If I had to describe your work I'd say -That your the best TF scribbler about, for what that's worth x-D and you draw supremely characterful stylish critters.
Oh, lord, welcome to my life. I think this perpetually. About so. many. people.
AND YES BACKGROUNDS. I know, fen :P Sometimes it's not even laziness, it's just unoriginality. Which is no excuse. And is pretty much the same thing as laziness. BUT STILL BACKGROUNDS FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUU--
I like it when you draw more.
I love your line weights and color use. Your body proportions with curves and non-comic thickness to characters make them pop out of the page. Another thing I like is your use of special effect lines lines in colors and shapes.
If I had to ask you to draw less, it would be foxes and cats. Except you do cats so well! And cats are like my second favorite animal.
When I think of your art I think 'professional comic artist' and 'fresh'.
And yes, I think we can agree that I draw too many damn foxgirls. Most of the time, I'm like, torn. The masses demand foxgirls! And yet...
Also, "professional comic artist" made me blush. <3
*hides*
Oh, hush. The only reason I didn't absolutely /bury/ you in fannish praise was because I already exhausted that reserve when I first talked to Soty. x-D
It's not a freakish lack of taste on our part that we all like you very much, rather; you really nail a whole bunch of things people have named here, colour, character design, expression, suggestions of background, the physicality of transformation. You've got a style of your own and we dearly look forward to your updates. Simple as that. =-P
Holy shit check out this guy's retro clean line book covers I am captivated by them.

I love Kate Beaton's work so much and these surreal book comics are my faves.
Oh and.... why don't you have a seat right over there?
COMEDY FUCKING GOLD.
PRO:
1)I like when you draw Women! You have an uncanny ability to capture the female form in unique and personalized ways. You draw Real Body types and you make them attractive. It's just so refreshing to see somebody not using cookie-cutter bodies. (And I admire you for it)
2)I wish you drew more. (That's really all I can say about it. I like just about everything you touch so the only thing I can really say is that I want more of it)
3)I wish you drew more fanart of these series/characters: Pokemon! Pokemon are just so much more interesting (and cute) than normal animals. They're a great subject for transformationmorphs. Aside from that I'd also like to see some Warcraft-related material from you, but I gather it's not really your thing. (I just think you'd be incredible at drawing the troll or orc females and making them look both attractive and accurate)
4)I wish you did more original art of these characters: Theresa McBride and Ginger. The Former because there seems to be a lot more to her character we're not seeing in just her one pinup and the latter because I think she's really cute and deserves some actual combat shots with interaction with other characters. She seems to just be attacking the air a lot.
5)I love how you draw Women (but I think we covered that) So I'll say shading and colour. You have a remarkable way with textures and colours and highlights I wish I could grasp. I've been studying your art for some time now trying to learn your secrets, and I believe I've learned a lot from you.
6)If you were to do a comic of/about something Warcraft-related I would be soooo happy! It's a long shot, but you never know.
7)If I could get you to draw anything I'd get you to draw My troll Jyati:
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/2371816/ (shown here half-transformed)
8)My favorite part of your work is the unique shape and personality you bring into every character
CON:
10)I wish you drew less Commissions.
Frankly I find your personal projects, characters and ideas far more interesting and fun than your commissions. I know it's not exactly the profitable thing to do, but I'd be very happy if you had more time to focus on your own ideas instead of other people's.
OTHER:
13)When I think of your art I think "This is what I'd like to be able to draw like"
14)If I had to describe your work I'd say: "Some of the most unique and creative characters in all of furaffinity, coloured with detail and care and with an incredible eye for shading. She makes all women look beautiful."
