Sexy ransom.

are you gonna show the finished verswion on your FA when it's done

yep!

Is this for the certain project your doing?

yessum, it's the cover

How much of it are you planning to colour?

lol. . . well, the whole thing, silly :p

Whelp.

All traditional then?

yep

well already the cover is quite impressive and you had already really impressed me with red devil

love it.

Foxwistle - always love your work babe

The painting version is so much better than the scrap! The grin, the eyes, the body... Everything. Just wow!

I love your traditional media artwork.

somehow i never realized ransom was this sexy

I like how he has a suggestion of maleness down in his groin. Many artists like to make their males look neutered.

A very nice picture.

Looks awesome~

Is this going to be a mini-comic? Or, are you keeping this one a surprise? ;3

In all your drawings of ransom he has different colors why?

Between the two digital pieces, it has to do with the lighting. One takes place in a cool night setting, the other is lit by warm firelight.

However, in this case, it's because it's traditional media, and it's difficult to match a digital pallet with paint.

Uber nice X333 Faved

This isn't completely related to the piece at hand, however, when working in digital medium, do you still have a similar process? I.e: would you put down lighter/less saturated base colors with all the markings, and do all the shading, highlighting and fur defining in color, or do you have a different method or combination of methods for digital work? ouo I do see the benefits of working in full-color from the get-go without using the greyscaling method and adding color and depth on the shading with an overlay layer, but how would you approach characters with relatively detailed markings?

I finally have time to sit down and do some proper art beyond sketching and quick flats, and I've long wanted to properly do painterly/detailed fur, and it looks like I finally have the free time to learn to do it properly ^u^ Thank you very much in advance.

I'd say I use some of the same methodology, but physical media works a lot differently than digital media. I prefer to work from shadow to light digitally, but often with traditional, you have to start with lighter colors and apply the shadows as you go. I go with something of a middle-ground with traditional media by using acrylic, which can layer over an image to add highlights afterwards.

Wow Rukis this is just stunning! It is always fun to see great artists repping traditional media:D Can't wait to see the finished piece!!

I have this very weird feeling that Ransom may just happen to be hotter than Amon. Reading through the chapters has made me really fond of him, even if he is a jerk most of the time.

Verry nice ;)

This would be a fun thing to livestream. I know how you feel about being on camera, and it'd probably be less than trivial to set up, but it would be a lot of fun to see something like this come together. IDK.

I have a question-

Your style is arguably very much on the realistic end of the slider, if we imagine a slider that goes from realistic to cartoony (I know realistic is tentative, seeing as furries are fantasy characters).

Is there any reason why you go for the more realistic-looking side of things?

personal preference. . . I just really like the look of realistic anthros
