That's a tough one, since you're already doing such a variety of subjects and backgrounds. Perhaps you could work on your color technique, a little -- most of your output is excellent monochrome pencil.

Thank you! And oh yes, painting more is definitely on my plans, lately I am having to focus on pencil work because it is being hard to find 3-5 hours in a row to paint ^^; but I hope to change that for the coming weeks. There is actually one experiment I am doing that consists of making a pencil sketch and painting over with watercolors, will share the results as soon as I finish it =).

I would like to see your hand at water color, or maybe even acrylic.

Watercolor and acrylic paintings incoming :)

A good technique I've used is mixing medias! I like to start with a base of watercolor and let that dry then go on top of it with colored pencils. This is how I create my most complex illustrations like this one: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22294499/

It provides much color coverage for those pesky white flecks that happen when using only colored pencil.

One more thing I can tell you about is cold press or hot press watercolor paper. Cold press is best for larger amounts of color application over bigger surfaces and is usually more of a rough texture. I have fallen in love with hot press watercolor paper for small, but detailed pieces. I found you typically have to re-wet your brush more on hot press but results are this for a 4x4inch pic : http://www.furaffinity.net/view/27125024/

Also I want to see more of your beautiful raccoon sona

Ooooooooo that is beautiful, gotta fave :D

Thank you very much for the suggestions, that is what I've been doing on my latest paintings, before I used to apply diluted acrylics and pencils on top but the watercolors work much much better with the pencils, I admire your patience to get this much coloring with the pencils after applying the watercolors, I usually go quite lazy when the pencil coloring phase comes ^^;.

I didn't know that these watercolor papers behaved this way, really never stopped to think about it but it makes perfect sense, here where I live we have quite a limited range of papers and supplies to choose so I couldn't experiment a lot on this field. The papers I usually work are bristol, a very porous cream toned one I have for ages and recycled paper, haven't played much with watercolor paper as I wanted ^^;.

My lady might appear in future drawings, she definitely deserves a bit more attention from my part, stay tuned =).

Oh? I'm sorry to hear that you have limited resources there! I like to shop on the web if I can't find something local.

This is my favorite website for art materials :D their prices are lower than stores and they almost always have a coupon available for more sales:

Yes, here it is quite hard to get the good materials, the ones I have, I bought when I wasn't in Brazil so I try my best to save them, but running out will eventually happen. Currently I am on a quest to find a place that sells bristol as it is my favorite paper for painting with acrylics ^^;.

Thank you very much for the link, gosh look at all the pretty supplies ^.^, will see if they can ship where I live, if so you probably just saved my art life x3.

I really hope they can ship to your location!

And no problem :3 artists gotta stick together!

Hmm, would be cool if you could try like monochrome pencil small comics or something, even just a few panels. I wouldn't complain at all if you did more canids (wolves, foxes, etc.) or even felines (tigers, leopards, or lions), or maybe try some more mythical characters such as dragons? Just throwing out some ideas

Will need to reset my mind's password because you definitely logged in it x3, been considering the idea of making a comic for a while, but for now I don't have a clue on what to do ^^;, I am up for suggestions if you have any ideas you would like to share =).

I am in the process of creating a story where the main character is a snow leopard and there are plenty foxes and wolves as well so you will be well served xD.

There is also one dragon scene I did an initial sketched that I hope to take forward on the coming months, please stay tuned =).

Lol, hey great minds think alike! I’ve been working on learning to draw myself as that’s would I eventually like to do, but I’ve heard comics are a pain! As far as ideas, what’s your favorite themes or plots for a story? Could take some simple concepts from maybe a story you wrote or draw for and turn it into a comic like say a love story or moral one or even could do short panels like say once a week building up a story in a comic about something you like or a story you like to tell like, say that story about the snow leopard you mentioned.

I would like to eventually draw a comic telling the story of my character in a tribal setting and his life and adventures living in the woods and the hardships and challenges he faces. I’m already in the process of writing the story but comics truly add to the allure of the story with visual references while still delivering a story, making it more lively.

So yeah just something you’re passionate about or a theme you love. Could be a drama, love story, adventure tale, fantasy, tribal or even a moral story.

all of that, and also you could maybe theme every day, like fox friday and somesuch. :)

That would be a dream if I could have the time to draw everyday ^^;, but who knows, Friday foxy sounds appealing, Wednesday weasel might be another take too or to make  Andibi happy, Wednesdeer x3

sounds like a plan. :D

^w^
Any suggestions for me fellow?
