*growf*

JUNE! Cripe, this year's just flying by. And another late paw-mail. Once again, I didn't have a lot of time to work on it until this morning. So another sort of FYI to mention about the paw-mails - sometimes folks ask why a certain picture isn't in them. Well first off, I may be good at spotting paws on FA, DA, and other sites, but I'm by no means all-seeing, so I miss plenty! Sometimes it's as simple as that. Other times it comes down to this being a list of footpaw/feet pictures that I personally thought were good, so adding a personal preference to it does make it a much more picky list given I'm pretty choosy. There are some personal turn-offs as well that can automatically disqualify a picture from my wanting to put it on the list. For example - paws that are semen-covered = NOPE! While NSFW stuff is pretty common in these Paw-mails, I actually prefer (when possible) tame versions of pictures over NSFW because the focus is (and should be) the paws more so that what else is being shown. If there is a more naughty version, I'll usually mention such in the description. Sometimes it can also come down to the style of the foot - if it's a very human-style foot, then I tend to hold it to my ridiculously high standards where only about 5% of human feet are nice, so most of those don't make it. Or if the drawing style is overly sketchy/rough, then again it's not really a good enough quality picture for the list. So... again, this is all personal preference on my part. So if you do wish to submit (e-mail or PM or whatever) some potential things for the list, go for it! Just understand I may or may not add them depending on whether I feel they're up to par for the sort of thing that this list includes. :)

That said, ShadowWolf has generously helped with this list by providing a bunch of links indicated below. Thank you very much Shadow - greatly appreciate your help. ^_^


Open For Commissions:

NauticalDog: (info here - http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6775089) ND's taking emergency commissions to help cover the costs of special formula for her new baby. So... not only a talented artist, but a very worthy cause! These openings are for G-rated art only, but she does a wide variety of stuff, and as you can see on the page, her prices are crazy reasonable. While paw stuff is not her mainstay, she does draw nice ones, and can also do a heck of a nice icon or character bust too. Go check it out!

Volac: (info here - http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6775352/). Volac is opening up her June slots. At the time of first starting this Paw-mail she had openings (just 3 slots) but they are full for now. However, I'll still leave this here because this month's theme is "Taurs" and she will offer a 10% discount if that's what you want for a commission should she open up some more slots soon. ;)

Most Pawesome Picture:

Artist: CariFoxLeopard
Character: Nicole, owned by Akari (https://www.furaffinity.net/user/akari./)

Picture: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16717042/ (sfw-ish, f, TCO!)

Why: This is just a fantastic picture. Rather than being nude or overly suggestive, this is a pretty tame picture which helps draw attention to the cool tribal-like outfit of the character, the jewellery, the markings and all the character and pose elements. Her tail even arcs around to lead your eyes back to the paws. The whole thing is just very, very beautiful.


Pulsar:

Eeeeee! Huge plantigrade Avian footpaws! That is so cute - and a cute story of how a more simple picture inspired this one. I really love the look on his face too - like he's just overjoyed when someone asks if they can see his soles. :)


VampireKitty:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16684431/ (sfw, m/f)

Very cute scene of Michelle trying to brush-straight Rhys' hair (which is an epic task, at best). Rhys' feet are kicked up behind her, looking all cute. As Vampy points out, she may not notice them yet, but she will eventually when he starts rubbing them on her back 'cause she's taking too long. :P


Volac:
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16703621/ (nsfw, m x 4, charr!)

Because charr! I mean.... jeeze, do I even need to explain here!? Charr everywhere! And Loki-charr is getting a face-full of Rytlock Brimstone's awesome toes. :3


Iggi:
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16702270/ (nsfw, f-h)

The beautiful Artica post-matting, it seems. Both awesome footpaws are up in the air to enjoy (and few, if any, draw them better than Ms. Iggi). ^_^


ManlyShark:
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16697487/ (nsfw, m/m)

Now see there - you don't have to ATTACK Bowser to win, you just have to charm him! Awesome idea for a picture featuring a very dear friend Sarkiran riding the King of Kings in the world of video games. Nice footpaw view of Bowser.


Incorgnito: (haha... awesome alias)
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16697342/ (nsfw, m)

It's the always sexy ShadowWolf! This time he's in feral form and... clearly demonstrating one of the advantages of this form. Nice view of both footpaws, and I particularly like that left one up in the air like that - SO inviting.


Foxypaws:
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16695492/ (nsfw-ish, m/m/m)

*snickers* I don't think Smawgy's quite as much a fan of the scent of Maxx's huge soles as Foxy.


F-R95:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16711571/ (nsfw, f/m, macro)

Tongue-hug! Admittedly... that would probably feel awesome. As this pretty lady hugs at the huge macro tongue, we get an awesome look at her footpaws. I like too that the image includes just enough of the macro's maw to see that he's smiling.


EC-Major:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16708509/ (nsfw, f)

YAY - part two of this image: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/15524767/. Amazingly detailed and wonderful looking sole and toe pads on this unique wolf-gryphon hybrid.


Teaselbone:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16717778/ (nsfw, f/m)

Renamon! Awww, this is just sweet - Renamon has long been a favourite of Teasel's, so this is a very heartwarming picture to see him do. :) Also - single BEST use of a keyhole sweater I've ever seen. XD Nice little peek at both Teasel's and Rena's feet.

SayUncle:

A cool griffin character showing a good bit of footpaw!


Blindman12:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16686971/ (nsfw, m/m, charr!)

Because charr. This lucky dragon gets to taste and adore a big charr paw. LUCKY!


WFA:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16695001/ (nsfw, m/m)

Teren getting ridden by Tephros in this awesome pic by the super-talented WFA. Even cell shaded, it's got such great anatomy details. And of course, both characters are showing off some very nice footpaws.


NX-3000:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16695257/ (nsfw, m/m)

Two dragons mating in the woods - I find this one pretty unique in that the soles are very different from what you'd normally see.


Yosha:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16580952/ (nsfw-ish, m/m)

Yum. :3 So... yeah, I don't think I need to go into detail about why Shadow and I both love this one. XD


Freelapse:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16700313/ (nsfw, f)

A very tight PoV that pretty much shows all the goods off on this female, with the right footpaw up very close to the viewer.


Buyobutt:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16686824/ (nsfw-ish, m)

Cute and pretty unique looking bear dude with really great looking footpaws! There is also a NSFW version without the undies if you follow the links.


Psy101:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16699274/ (sfw, m)

A very sly looking fox character in a nice pose that shows both sole pads and the side of his footpaws.


DaggerLeonelli:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16694781/ (sfw, m)

Very cute chibi version of Nasido the gryphon! Those paws are just adorable.


Teskine:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/14452244/ (nsfw-ish, f, TCO!)

Neat macro fluffy dragon who's about to stomp something (or someone). Pretty unique looking sole on her.


Evalion:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/16706708/ (nsfw, m/m)

Given the contents of his locker, I'd say this is probably a normal thing for this dragon. XD Nice look at his grass-covered soles.


And that's it for today! Have a good week everyone, and see you for the Friday Paw-Mail which will have a Character highlight (and SUCH a good one at that). :3
