Real talk: stripetail is one of the best clients. You should see this guy's response to a call for reference material. It almost brought a tear to my eye, I was so happy.
Thanks again!

I completely dig the pose. You captured it masterfully. I am really fond of the way you did the hind paws. So many artists either leave them vague, blur them out in a pose like this, or just get them wrong. In this picture they look real enough to touch.
Overall, a beautiful picture. Bravo!

Kicky claws! Hands and feet are often afterthoughts. I'm especially curious in how they're rendered in humanoid form. We use them to interact and manipulate our surroundings, so they have to be dexterous and useful in anthro form. Digitigrade legs are even more interesting since they'd have to be beefed up going from quadriped weight distribution to biped. Feet would need to be bigger to distribute the weight. Now I'm being a nerd.
The prints cam out wonderfully

Daaaamn, I absolutely how you barely leave anything without having less detail.
It's pretty common to see artists put less amount of time and detail working on certain body parts, but depending on the artist it comes off visible in different ways (ammount of detail, the relation of how "expressive" said part is, etc). You just make every part have extremely detailed and expressive, making it flow perfectly well with the rest of the body, the tail having this "pulled aback and going forward" movement that fits the movement the char is making, I see quite some people have gone into the hands and feet since, dang they are calling for the viewers attention here c:
Also, I freaking adore how you use the "paint" like colouring to make the actual strokes which it was coloured, to actually work as "movement lines" of sort, having em also work with the movement of the body, that's something it's extremely rare to see c:
