More digital practice. There's also approximately one billion things I want to do with color and don't know how, so I've been practicing.
Doing the same thing I usually do, which is naked characters in settings that usually require clothing. I’ve been sorta tying this into me recent get-back-into-INA kick, where though the characters are a bit more back to human shape, the raccoons probably wouldn’t be that large. In either case, the internal workings of the setting (in situations of peace anyway) make for this kind of fun paradise-on-earth scenario, which I’m sure anyone who’s been an idealistic teenager also made for themselves.

Alright, here's everything I've got. Obligatory disclaimer: probably not all of these will be useful to you, and some will be stuff you've already learned (or possibly already seen). That said:

and if you don't have it yet, get James Gurney's "Color and Light." It's so worth it.
I also made up my own quickie cheat sheet on color stuff, if I can find it I'll send it your way.

Probably the best advice I can give is to keep in mind that there are multiple stages that add up to the end result of human visual perception. There's the way light interacts with matter (falloff, transmission, reflection, absorption, subsurface scattering, etc), the things the eye itself does in response to light (like the Purkinje effect, rod/cone response peaks, scotopic vision, iris contraction and how it affects perceived brightness, etc), and finally what the brain does to parse visual input (chromatic adaptation, perceptual color, and so on). The best colorists I've encountered can switch easily between rendering reality in accurate terms with true colors, to rendering subjective scenes with completely false colors -- but still maintaing the internal schemes of those colors as accurate and "real." oCeLoT is a great artist to study in this regard.
It's complicated stuff, and as I'm sure you've already discovered, you can get way down the rabbit hole with it. But it's still worth learning, because once you "get" it, you can not only create really great stuff, it also changes how you perceive color itself, in art and in the real world.

Yeah, everyone has created her own ideal world. I'll admit, the fantasy picture of a world of naked furries is amusing, and the sort of thing I don't mind seeing more of. Since I prefer Reality-TFs stories where reality is zapping people into naked furries who retroactively have always been that way, meaning culture and technology changing to suit.
No sense of modesty, and having the fur and biology where suffering from the elements in typical temperatures is a non-issues.
You ever done addventure/chain/group/round robin, type stories?

I like this kinda world. It just makes sense a furred animal would not want something as combersom and warm as clothing (except in really cold climates). It is interesting seeing how this kinda world could have grown to be thst way as well. Also it is interesting in figuring out how predators get their protien when their neighbors are historically their prey. Always cool thought experiments ^.^
Probably from nonsapient versions of the taxonomic family.
The just as interesting one thought experiment would be if a branch of a previously strictly vegetarian family would evolve and yield a sapient, omnivorous genus (due to the higher caloric values capable in omnivorous diets).

Whenever I see these pictures from your pantsless furry universe, I cringe a little when I see them sitting on busy public seats. I don't think I'd like to sit naked on some chairs in the airport that 20,000 other naked people of various hygiene status have sat on.
Wouldn't be very excited about the airplane seats either.

That's awesome!
And yeah, I know about the idealism. So many scenarios are military and I don't have the heart to kill furry types off in endless conflict, which leaves a lot of slice-of-life stuff. And as long as you're there, may as well give everyone universal basic income and health care...

I'm trying to think if I know any resources that could help an artist like you! 0.0 but everything I know is like amurture art skills, and you are like professional level XD at least to me I view you as like god status artist. @.@ I really love the lighting in this situation though!
I do know stuff about lighting though! (More of a film type thing though) for. More dramatic/realistic shading look I would add more hard lighting in the back ground, and then give the characters soft shadowing along with the hard shadows they already have. :3 does that help? ^^; I don't draw a whole lot, but a film, and stuff.

I love the concept and idea! Naked furries is how it should be! Thank you for making my day a little brighter and more awesome.
Love the shading and color work. I know you say you want to do more and I hope you never stop improving. You're art and comics are awesome!
Also, I could see things go this way in real life if the TSA doesn't change. Lol. (Sure that joke's been made already.)
Can't wait to see what you do next.

Fur covers the important bits, IMHO.
It is nowhere near lewd.
Now, that said, a male, with a sheath, wouldn't have the benefits of clothing to hide certain pop-up problems. Becoming sexually aroused in public would likely be a -huge- stigma. Something stigmatized to the point that just thinking about the reaction the public would have would be sufficient to make certain problems go away rather quickly =~.^=
In the world I tinker with, there is no public stigma on 'nudity' ('in the fur' as they refer to it), but the stigma is certainly on any visible (or scented) arousal. Some still wear clothing, or at least some article of clothing hitched about the waist including a hitch over their tail. A post-human world, some of those 'human norms' are maintained by a segment of the society. A world where clothing isn't entirely gone, but there are certainly those who choose to wear none.

I'd say so, for sure. A simple belief in the fact that there is nothing inherently 'dirty' in one's form. In fact, to many indiginous tribes who were discovered by the western world, who lived in a naturally nudist society. Well, they would often react rather... disfavourably to this western belief that to be without clothing was somehow 'dirty'. For in such cultures great pride was taken in the cleanliness of one's body. This western outsider's view that they were somehow 'dirty' was rather insulting, to say the least. I'd think in a furred anthro world, a similar belief would happen quite naturally. A belief that ones cleanliness would be best proven by being on display. That one should be proud of how clean their body is. I mean, clothing on fur hides it, and how well groomed it is (or isn't). Could be a bit of a status symbol that one's fur is well kept and always in place, and not dishevelled. Would also make proving the lack of any skin defect incredibly easy. Also makes searching for fleas easier. And again, without sexual arousal, the important bits are hidden by fur. Same way in a nudist colonies where the stigma is on any outwardly visible arousal. Again, the males get it the hardest in such a society, for it is much harder for them to hide even the beginning stages of arousal.
