Mechanical commission: Dinosnake.
I'd like to think I'm fairly experienced with most forms of vehicular drawings, but
dinosnake's request was definitely a new one: a motorcycle.
Fortunately he had plenty of refs of his own machine (some verra nice photos in there )so it was fairly easy once I got enough angles of it. Actually, one of the more difficult aspects of the drawing was his avatar, as apparently hybrids aren't something I'm too practiced at either (in this case reptile/wolf). I actually fretted a good amount on the character art when it turned out it wasn't particularly large relative to the entire drawing, so not a huge amount of detail was needed. @.@
Overall I think it came out fairly successfully. Once again, the wheels ended up being the most difficult part; the rest of the motorcycle body was surprisingly easily geometric. I'm afraid I didn't have the room to draw everything at sufficient resolution to get all of Snake's physical specifics down...the scales/markings/fur tufts should be a lot more elaborate, but I did what I could.

Thanks for everything you've done! It's just AMAZING You captured me and the bike perfectly, I really don't know how you did it. At times I really felt that was torturing you with this project
When you sent me the second proof, which had more details filled in, I actually gasped at the amount of work you did on the disk carriers, the calipers, the engine and the wheel area including the axle holders. You really nailed the bike perfectly. It's a shame you had to hide all that detail work you did on the bike behind the dumb lunk in the picture I should commission you for another image, this time we me leaning on the seat from behind the bike (you can use the current bike layer) so that all the amazing work you did will finally show through!
This is the kind of thing that's perfect for the me-vs-fursona meme going around, isn't it? If only I did things like that
Thanks again!!

Glad you like :-D And you did nothing of the sort, I'm a detail freak so I like to get things right.
Um. Yeah. That stuff XD Heh, I really should learn more about the terminology. And oh right, thanks to the wonders of layers, if yer interested I believe I *can* have the fully rendered bike shown separate from your character.
Hee, as shown above, you should XD
Yer welcome, was a pleasure workin' with you.
