"This is a ENO doublenest, come join me." *invites with a toenudge* :}

I'm fiddling with the submission off and on, seeing if I can get the right color profile to show. Done by commission of  toeclaws and uh... I'm not sure, it suddenly felt done to me, even though there's sooooo much about digital painting I don't know, and could add still. Sketched and planned traditionally, digitally painted in Photoshop.

I can't believe in the end this is only three layers we're looking at, though I have like 10 in the file, just 7 are turned off.

....Guys and ladies I wishI could enjoy this as much as you all surely will. I wish I could. I can't believe I could make something this neat and cheery in the middle of some very stressing horn-pulling times. I really WISH I was in this beach, away from family (as much as it hurts to admit/want it). I dunno. Maybe I'll be better later. Maybe I just ran out of steam on it. I like it though, mostly. It's good digital paint practice.

...Like my clawtips? :> I like my fat tail and THICK CALVES---oh yeah, I remember now. I was going to make a joke about teasing George Takei 'cuz he said something about the hawtness of guy firm strong calves haha. ONE COOL THING ABOUT THIS IS though that since I went on my trip, I've been running and parkouring so much that my body ACTUALLY MATCHES THIS REALLY CLOSE, especially in the feet, calves, and tummy (I still like to eat too much!) So I guess that's a bit of happy. Really I have ALL happy at all parts of this pic, just that, real life and psychologic things are dulling most of it down. Sucks. I guess when my life begins, I'll live in full color like this pic.

Enjoy! Done in like waaaay too many hours (like what, 20?) in Photoshop.
....how am I ever going to make a living from illustration when I paint this slow *cries*

EDIT: Got the colors looking right with an Apple RGB profile, at least on my machine! The colors should look VERY saturated to the point of being almost annoying, especially in the teals, blues, and neon yellow and greens. If things look bad, let me know!

EDIT 2: AUGH I think FA hates color profiles, or not all browsers load them. So you just won't see this pic as it was originally intended. Which suuuucks. :/ Augh x.x *whiiiine*
