Just lovely, but looking at the background makes me think of climbing out of the water and then getting hit with one of those unpleasantly cold breezes T_T

Wonder what kind of coffee she drinks?

Mmm, nice nice nice. Textured without being overwhelming. Almost makes morning look appealing. ;P Lovely understated California vibe (even though she must be on the east coast if the sun's over the sea, heh heh)

I'm almost always amazed at how relatively natural you manage to get the colours, such as the gradual shading of the sky. Beautiful.

I love red pandas and that's why I made my own. She has black hair though.

That's why I love this pic.

Awesome job! We never really see that many Red Pandas around. And great job with the sunset and backround. Nice touch with the cofee too. That reminds me, I never had startbucks before.

Absolutely gorgeous! The pose is so natural, and like others have noted, the coffee is such a nice touch. I can't get over how lush the fur looks, and how well the colors stand out. :)

Starbucks and a red panda in the same picture! I just have to fave! XD this is awesome. I love the pose and how you can feel the weather... somehow. Remind me of Ocean Beach in San Francisco...but cleaner. XD

starbucks has good hot tcoco for a cold morning, but i think she may need more clothes for the storm that is coming in...

aramis-dagaz ~aramis-dagaz

The glasses look lovely on her, her fur pattern does a good job guiding the eye along her modest but no less beautiful curves, especially along her shoulder and neck, but I think the best part is simply seeing a beautiful lady look so content as she enjoys gazing upon the landscape. Lovely work as always, Kacey.

Kacey, you are amazing. Someday, if I ever get rich, I'm going to commission a couple of pics from you. I absolutely love this piece. Astonishing detail and completely true to life.

Fav'd and saved.

Rimbaum ~rimbaum

Anthro Artist

For some reason, the part that I like the most about this picture is the texturing and shading on her tail fur. It's subtle enough to not be overwhelming with all the fur that she does have, but distinct enough that it stands out.

Love the pose, and the background is amazing! If her hair were a tiny bit shorter, but still up, I'd expect her to be holding a staff/sword type weapon.

I'll repeat what I said on Da. Sexy lady on a beautiful day, and I also like the background and the effects to show off the sun(set/rise). I like her beautiful eyes. Amazing work.

Nicely done, but the more I look at it, the more I think there's something wrong with the anatomy of the legs, particularily the one in the front.

Hehehe.. I bought one of the last five prints of this at Further Confusion this year and I am quite pleased with it despite not having hung it up yet, I consider it too awesome of a picture to just let it sit out on some boring wall and let it collect dust and whatnot since my room is a dust magnet. XD

By the way, much love to you and all your awesoness Kacey!
