I thought i'd submit this as a preview to the amazing
malkyru .
Malky, You remember how I said I might redo my half of the trade? well, this is probably gonna be it, and the other stuff I drew will just be added perks, haha. xD Besides, it's the least I can do considering you make IK look like a celebrity with all the art you've made of her.
Let me know what you think, guys! You like it?
Also, Malkyru:
Let me know if I got everything right. Also, I'm really conflicted about how to proceed. the hind legs look smaller, but it could just be blamed on the angle. I can't really make much change unless more of his body is cropped out (This image literally covers a full sheet o' paper. x_x), or I could just leave it like it is. I'd like everyone's opinion on this, but ultimately i'm gonna listen to Malky.
LOL, and no worries- i'm gonna be erasing the enamoured Icykat in the top right. xD
This will be scrapped when the final is uploaded.
Malkyru belongs to the charming, talented and all-around amazing
malkyru ,
art belongs to my head, as that's where it came from.

LOL THAT ENAMORED IK OMG I'm kind of sad you will be erasing it.
AND GAWD YOU FLATTER ME SO. @______@
Dude, the inking you're doing is SUPER NICE. You have such a great grasp of line weight. What kind of pen are you using???
And the angle is great, as well as the mood.
And omg his tongue XD
And the way you do his hands is ace.
And the eyeless socket looks good!
This only thing is that his feet are longer, and I draw them pretty big to balance the short legs out. I'd say they actually could almost fill the length of the bottom and left side edge of the paper considering the proportions you already have. You would just have the angle the lge down more.
Gawd, I feel like a nit-picky ass. You don't have to change it if it's too annoying. It really looks super sexy as is.
My god, I'm gonna love this when it's all done, hell I love it now.
You freakin' rock to be giving me all this art T_T you are a cherished member of my art family.

lol, if you want I can keep her in there! xD I just wasn't sure whether she'd be a mood killer, y'know? If you want her there, she can stay. Might erase the name, though. Unless you want that in there too? Lemme know; it's your picture after all. n_n
And it's funny that you should mention the lineart, mann. This picture has given me so much grief because of the lines. I love inking in pictures, but I use Micron pens. And I usually use size .005 or 01 for basic lineart (I think I used 05 for the 'mane' though), and then to thicken lines or for the finer details, like the bits of fur, eyes or chin stubble I use the smallest size it gets, which is .005.
Problem is, I went to work lastnight to try and finish the lineart, and both of my .005 pens went dry. come to find out my 01 pen exploded in the car. xD
So i'ma have to hop off to the store and get me some more so I can finish this! I was so mad at my pens lastnight, haha.
Glad you like the socket! Depending on how I colour this it'll look better, I promise. And the tongue. |D I cant remember where I saw it, but I think you said that his mouthparts, like his lips and tongue, were sort of relative to bear anatomy. And bears have long ass tongues, so. xD
And yeah, The feet. I can never draw them big enough, mann. I had a feeling though, I just didn't know whether I ought to change it. But I will! I want to get him right.

Oh man, I'm so glad you remembered that his lips and tongue were bear-like. Most people don't pay attention to those kind of nuances. I have a list of all the relevant animal anatomy in one of the links I provided on my profile page, but I don't know if anyone would read that painful list, which is understandable.
Oh man, micron pen horror stories. I'm not surprised. But I have ball point pen horror stories to match!
I've been likin' them sharpie pens though. I found a whole pack for a $1 at walmart in a clearance section, while they are normally close to $7.
And IK does kind of throw off the mood. But it would be cute to do something like that where Malky is in the same style XP
The name can stay or go depending on how you feel about it. It doesn't matter to me either way.
Man, I can't get over how emotionally agonized Malky looks... it's so perfect XD

I'm not usually great at remembering things, either. but I am pretty anal about getting someone else's character right.. Or at least looking okay. xD For some reason the bear details just stuck in my head.. Maybe because I love bears so much anyway, who knows, haha.
Yeah, Microns usually treat me nice, but lately i've noticed that I only really like the .005's. The larger sizes tend to bleed on me and make the lineart look patchy. With the mane, I used 05 which is fairly thick, but I had to reline both edges due to ink bleeding. Not complaining though, Because reinking allowed me to thicken parts and make it look better.
I htink I've used a sharpie pen before! Maybe I should invest in one of those, too. ^^
Yeah dude, I can totally draw malky and IK in that style for you. In fact, I have a few sketches of Mallky all toony-fied already. |D I just dont wanna throw off the emotion in the picture here is all.
I'm glad you don't mind. I'm not sure if Malky ever gets really low, but I figured a tormented expression paired with a missing eye would be nice.

It's more than nice, it's perfect. I used to draw Malky like that A LOT. Only recently he's been cheery because I've been cheery.
And it would be so cute if you did a toony kind of thing. I didn't know you had toony Malky's XD That's awesome.
I have microns, too, but I'm not sure I like them >_< I should use them more just because they cost money XP
