Adorable

Looks amazong!! Def going to have to commission you once I have my Sona's visual..!~

A challenge it may have been, but a fantastic job you did of it ^^

... Wow. I like images with rain in them, and I think you did a great job. Beautiful Kitty too.

I love the setting in this. The lighting is perfect, and the mood gives that of a calm and sweet feel to it. Makes me feel at ease as if i actually were enjoying a nice rainstorm myself~

It is starting to look as though more people are depicting rain in a positive mannor. This makes me rather happy, because rain is a rather beautiful thing and i am getting tired of people referring to cloudy skies and rainy days as a bad thing. Where i live, i can't even go outside unless it has been cloudy all day or while it is raining because it is so hot that it is dangerous for those with health conditions. Not to mention that the heat makes me feel disgusting the moment i set foot outside. Also uhm we kinda need rain to end this drought. Makes me laugh when people compain about the rain when it is literally the bringer of life and savior from death in such situations.

Aww thank you! Yeah the rain can be both sad and fun. I've had magical moments in the rain.. but then sad ones too. You need rain to give life to the world. So it's important.

Very~
We are desperately in need of more rain, too. =[
Like, sith drought conditions and everything, when the water levels get low (we get our wter from open lakes and ponds in the area), the water starts to smell like sediment. It's pretty gross when you take a shower and smell that. D= luckily, we never drink it straight from tap, we always filter it first.

I am honestly surprised more of the world doesn't harvest rain water for drinking. =|

That is so hard to read. The month of July, where I live, was the wettest month every in my cities History. We got 8 inches of rain from one storm alone. And we had maaaaaaaaaany storms. Wish we could store the water and send to places that need it.

Yes. Gosh, that would solve so many problems aroundnthe world, especially considering clean drinking water is becoming a global issue. X.x

this, all of your comment, just this. "i am getting tired of people referring to cloudy skies and rainy days as a bad thing" omg me too, rain is the most wonderful thing on the earth

Isn't it though?! ;;
In my favs, i think there is a piece you'd like of a dark leopard girl enjoying the rain in the nude. You should take a look! ( i won't post the link here out of respect for kayiko~)

I checked it out, it's very beautiful

I hope to find more pieces such as this one as well as the one i recommended~ more rain appreciation. ^^

This piece actually looks quite beautiful, I cant wait to see the piece you are working on for me and Sledge~

I'm working on it next.

love the wet effects so much, very well done!

Really beautiful

turned out so lovely :) absolutely adorable :) thank you!

aww, I love this! how wonderful to see more art from you, sweetie ^___^

I love the fact that, as a viewer, I can FEEL the cool rain drops falling... and hear the little ducklings splashing about. X3

Thank you sweety!

Awww...turned out impressively lovely. :3

the picture and everything in it are looking lovely.

So beautiful, very precious :3

SO. FUCKING. CUTE!

wow its super cute

di came out great stephi :)

D'AWWW!!! This is absolutely adorable! You did awesome, Kayiko!

I really love it, I just wish the watermark was more out of the way. Ruins it just a little. But still favved :3

Wow what an incredible piece. I almost never fav art but this is just so amazing. The coloring is so beautiful I love the one apprehensive baby duck to the far left.

haha thanks!

Looks pretty damn good to me... cutest bunch of baby ducks I'VE ever seen. ^w^

That one on the left is up to something. >> I'd keep an eye on him.

Love the techniques and texture contrasts going on here; the ripples on the puddles are really nice! :3

Thanks. They were a pain. and almost drew me crazy

Yeah. I notice this when I wash my cats.

OMG the baby ducks ;A; soooo cute. and I love pics with rain

Oh my god, this is so adorable. The art ia amazingly detailed, too. Great job! :O

Wonderful!

this is quite beautiful. your wet fuur is quite impressive if you were wondering. I really love this concept, and its amazing the way you pulled it off ^_^

Thank you! I wasn't sure I pulled it off. (i still think she looks like a wet balloon. lol) But thank you!

hmm the tail is just right, i'll find a photo in a minute

http://oi43.tinypic.com/29c45xd.jpg slow mo rain, looks like speed you are going for (not in my gallery cuz i don't think its a very good photo lol) but as you see, water will bounce. I think you did a wonderful job, just would have to say ducks repel water completely, whereas fur would tend to soak it in more so less water would be visible on the body itself when running down, but there would be prominent dripping at a lot of places. idk it looks really good without being too complicated.

Wow.. Thank you for the kind comment and insight.

you certainly deserve it wish i would have commented sooner, but am working through my submissions from oldest to newest since i haven't looked at them for a month lol. I wish I had a photo scanned in of my wet dog to help out a little more. oop just found that there are two rain photos in my gallery, but don't think the shutter speed was fast enough to capture the rain like that deck pic http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9809315/ http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9826672/ I hope I've helped in some way, thanks for reading and actually caring.

its ok. .i have cats and they get wet. So I know how their fur is. Thank you again.

^^
