I've been wondering why this piece get so little attention while I consider this as one of my best work in the 2005. Not to mention it started as a sketch by a bigname named  frisket17

When I attended Anthrocon 2004, I got to met the ever so lovely  frisket17 . Since she's some awesome with canine characters, I had her to draw a sketch of my wolf guy Bai Ming. Since I just graduated from the Digital Animation class and I learned a lot about colouring in digital forms (majorly Photoshop), I thought I should start putting this to good use. My greatest inspiration in the colouring style is the production arts of the Xbox RPG game, Jade Empire. I couldn't help but fall in love with the soft feel of these digital paintings.

And yes, I notified her about me doing a digital paint upon the sketch she did and I'll notify her the completion of this as soon as I am done this message.

In case you are wondering what kinda sword/sabre Bai wields, its a Yang style Tai-ji (Tai chi) sabre/sword. http://www.taichilink.co.uk/images/.....re_enlarge.jpg
