*growf*

YAY Friday - and more yay than usual for me as I have today off! Actually, yesterday, today and all of next week. :P Part of it will be spent at some family get-together's this weekend, and visiting my brother (who's not been to Ontario for 5 years). The rest is just much-needed down time. Rather hoping that I get some time to write as such.

Tuesday's Paw-Post, I hope, should be on time. I'll be away all weekend and busy Monday, so I don't know what sort of time I'll have to work on it right up until Monday evening, so if for some reason there is just not enough time to get it out, or I end up needing to use Tuesday as a "rain day" for the events planned on Monday, then I may need to cancel the Paw-Post for that day. I hope not, but won't really know for sure until I'm right up to it.

Okay, let's get going...

Open For Commissions

 VampireKitty: (info - https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6960998/) Has some slots open for sketch commissions. VK is a wonderful lady to work with, and as you can see in my gallery, or hers, or many others who have commissioned her; the art is amazing. :3 Not just good at paws, but brilliant at emotion in any piece she does, and I love how much more that adds to a picture. :) Go grab a slot!

 Lunalei: (info - https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6960346/) August slot openings are available. Nice clean lines, gorgeous shading work, and while not primarily focused on paws, she does draw nice ones (and as per her Artist Highlight from a while back) is happy to do so. :)

 TalksToDogs: (info -https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6964243/) Open again for more commissions. Talented lady who does traditional art and happens to be darn good at paws.

 Harlem: (info - https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6964464/) Open for one flat-coloured picture and a number of sketch slots. While not specifically paw-centric, he does churn out some great paw stuff. :)

 Rokemi: (info - https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6965488/) Some badge and pin-up slots open. Unique style (and great with paws).

Most Pawesome Picture
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17396036/ (sfw-ish, m/m, charr!)

Artist: Skye (https://www.furaffinity.net/user/skye)

Characters:
Loki Roland - https://www.furaffinity.net/user/zarus195/
MuddyCharr - https://www.furaffinity.net/user/biglovingwolf

Why: Because Charr. This is part 2 of a series of Loki loving on the huge footpaws of his wonderful mate. Three things really work for me in this one: 1) Charr (duh), 'cause they have such huge, amazing footpaws. 2) Loki's incredibly happy expression, and 3) the implied simplicity of a moment that is just all about paws and their love for each other. It's just a completely paw-centric moment, and one done out of love and appreciation for feet. :) That made it an easy choice for today.


YaioFairy:

This probably started as one wanting to have a shower and - bam, fun stuff. :P A nice view of both of their footpaws to be had in this scene.


VoondahbaYosh:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17372284/ (nsfw, m/m)

Crackers the mouse riding his friend Ruddrbtt. The PoV offering a nice look at both of their soles (nice shading detail in particular on Cracker).


Freckles:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17375961/ (nsfw, m)

Awesome Lion-taur character here with his huge hind-paws up in the air and showing off some very nice sole pads. :) No complaints about the rest of him either. :3


Black_Chaos666:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17377820/ (nsfw, m/m, charr!)

Because charr. Two of them. Ferros and Kayroo offer up a nice tease to any passer-bys. Very sexy looking males, and a decent view of their big (potentially needy) feet. :3


KolbeJack:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17378789/ (sfw, m/f)

A touching couples/cuddling picture in which we get a lovely look at the one's sole pads. :) I think it's neat that the character attached to those nice feet is so colourful, yet, not in an overly saturated way. You don't see that much.


Zen:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17380220/ (sfw, m)

*laughs* Oh wow, this is cute - The Beast in need of a bit of help to get that pesky thorn out of his gorgeous sole pads. :3 Been quite a while since Zen's done a paw-centric pic, and what an amusing way to roar back into the mix. XD


TheWildCoon:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17380525/ (sfw-ish, m)

I really enjoy how anthro-bears carry over the fully-soled footpaws of the real animals they're based on. Big, wide, and beefy footpaws are a nice tease with the way this guy's propped them up for some attention.


Slyus:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17381539/ (nsfw, m/m)

Cheetapaws and EvraMalygos having some fun (perhaps a birthday treat for Evra). We get a nice look at the unique soles of Evra here, as well as a bit of a look at the nice tops of Cheetapaw's foot as well.


Kyma:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17381602/ (nsfw, m/m)

A beautifully shaded/lit picture of Furryfoxfur and Fuzzyfox enjoying a bit of time surrounded by nature. A nice view of the paws whilst romping.


ZP92:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17382982/ (nsfw-ish, f)

What an awesome PoV in this one! While human-like in design, the larger toes and massive wrinkle detail in this ladies mid sole really make this a fantastic picture. The somewhat taboo-ish theme adds a bit as well. ;)


3DiNoZ:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17387891/ (nsfw, m)

DarkShine is a hybrid lion of sorts, showing off some very big and cool looking paws here (among other things) in a beautifully shaded and lit picture.


GothWolf:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17387872/ (sfw-ish, m)

Benoit in one very obvious (and thus wonderful) Paw-tease. Thos speckled pads sure make it a fun and sexy bit of sole to stare at. :)


RossCiaco:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17385337/ (sfw, m)

Whoahhoho... now THAT is a character with some trippy colours! This is Ravr, a sabre, and doing a cool leaping/slash pose that shows off his big feet beautifully. Huge sole pads and toes on this guy - I particularly like the angle of his right footpaw in this.


Footpaws:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17396333/ (nsfw-ish, m/m/m)

Haha... so... Conner the raccoon's escape didn't -quite- go to plan here. Oh well - means we get a heck of a view as those cute soles of his are ah.... rewarded for his troubles.


Reivagan:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17396768/ (nsfw, m, ref.)

An amazingly detailed ref sheet for YuunDaisuke's character Abis Sedjet Basten. The sheet has some very nice shots detailing the footpaws of this gorgeous character. The race is Altinian - one of YuunDaisuke's creation, where being barefoot is actually quite common. :3


Vallhund:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17397348/ (nsfw, m, TCO!)

One very unique looking Roo character in a pose that puts those HUGE footpaws RIGHT in your face... or as close as a computer screen allows anyway. :P


Lukos:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/17397714/ (nsfw, m)

Renki sometimes finds himself in curious situations. Seems he's discovered some hungry tentacles. At least we get a nice look at his toes while he tries to figure out if this is a good or bad thing. XD


Restif:
http://www.deviantart.com/art/Lynet.....lirt-553633628 (sfw, f, art-human)

Graaaahh... this was a close runner up for Most Pawesome (even if... not really a paw). Here we see Lynette, very, very obviously propping up her foot as a tease. The expression totally sells it as such, and Lynette has such perfect feet (she's my favourite of Restif's digital creations). Heh, to me, the only downside is that they're slightly dirty, but then, some people like that so a good call on his part to go with a light dusting of dirt. Anyway, a very good example of a perfect human female foot here, methinks.


Xainy:
https://www.weasyl.com/submission/1.....-thinkin-about (sfw, m/m)

DannyDummel and Nulizz's characters having a fun talk in a grassy field, both showing off their cute paws to whomever might walk up on them. I like how light-hearted and fun this feels - both smiling away, talking with their gazed locked on the other. Very nice. :)

Character Summary (by YaioFairy):
Drood is a very horny bastard and likes sex in all ways it comes! He's easy going in general and gets along with everyone. He is also a bit of an attention seeker and loves the lime light ;) In creating Drood, I wanted a creature that wasn't really a known species. To me, he is kind of a demon cat/lion. He is based off of the World of warcraft druids (as you can tell I'm so creative with names haha). His color scheme was inspired by the cat villain, Cat R Waul, from Fivel goes West. I've always loved paws that are lighter on the underside for some reason, I guess I feel it brings out the paw pads more and you can see more details of the paw with the lighter color. I kind of feel it also puts emphasis on his paws- which really hits the spot for me!

Commenting on Images:
(YaioFairy) I like everything XD I especially love punny comments

Some Q&A

(TC) Drood is a very playful looking guy who happens to show off those footpaws quite a bit. He seems to know the're an item of interest, so does he enjoy teasing folks with them?

(YaioFairy) Oh yes he loves to whore his paws out :) He also likes to play with paws in return.

(TC) What does Drood think of footpaws anyway - are they an item of interest to him as well, or is it more about being playful with his towards others?

(YaioFairy) He knows that they can be a very sensual spot easily overlooked. He likes to touch em, lick em, etc. And enjoys having the same done to his paws. And even during just regular sex you can see the paws still very active, curling toes or sprawling them out as a response to pleasure.

(TC) What's with Drood's glowy eyes?

(YaioFairy) Well he is a feline afterall :) The glowly eyes intimidate his foes and also help him see at night! And of course add that hint of mischievousness that is so evident in him :3

(TC) Does he have any hobbies or favourite things he likes doing? (answer can be sfw or nsfw)

(YaioFairy) Drood pretty much....is just a huge pervert. Everything is all about sexy stuff ;) Sometimes its about being submissive or dominant. He's a switch. I used to draw him in pain a lot in early pictures where he was receiving anal because he was a noob at it and couldn't take the cock! He's really gotten the hang of it now though and it doesn't hurt him as much anymore.

(TC) What are some of Drood's favourite qualities in people? And what things does he -not- like in people?

(YaioFairy) He likes people who will play with him and dislikes those who thinks hes a weirdo X3 He'd prolly try to claw at the meanies!

(TC) Drood seems to have an anthro and feral form - does he shape shift?

(YaioFairy) Yes he shapeshifts into feral forms. He actually also has a tauren form (which is female) and a male bear form as well. I've kind of been in the works of creating more forms that are not in the WoW universe, like perhaps a dragon form- just haven't really gotten around to it yet ;)

And that's it! Thank you to YaioFairy for a cool look at Drood and his lovely feet. :) Have a good weekend everyone!
