More from teiirka
The motes of time, having failed to coalesce, drift back into the etherial and disappear, unable to again be called to the physical world till their true time. Hours of concentration, of reaching out with her very soul that threatened to snap the fragile cords that make body and spirit one, wasted. A slight but incessant sound had found it's way into her sanctum and had broken the trance required to perform the calling.
She is not happy.
"If it's that same damn pizza delivery guy come to the wrong address again", she thought, "I will sprinkle his diced heart on the pizza…. and refuse to pay the additional topping cost ! "
11 x 14 color pencil
I kind of overstepped my comfort zone on this one and took way longer than I had planned. Learned a lot though, do's and don'ts.
I'll probably go back in and touch up a few things as I spot something. Shot with camera but colors are pretty close but I will we post when I get a better scan.
I know there are anatomy and other problems but I would still like to get critique to point out the problems so I may be able to do better on the next one.
This will probably be for sale in the AC art show…if I don't leave my portfolio case in the front yard like I did for MFF.
Thanks to all who tool the time to critique this piece during its creation. It's far from perfect but far better than it would have been without your help : )

I have no idea what to even ask for something like this. I was going to stick it in the AC art show and see what happens but who knows.
Been talking to another artist about adding a solid color BG. He did a quick photoshop fill with a medium green to match the green used and it does make the picture "POP".
It's not going anywhere for a while. ;

You did a wonderful job and I hope you won't change anything as you already consider it finished. If there's still something you might be unhappy with - keep it in mind and try to avoid that mistake in the next piece you create. :) (I'm just trying to get you to draw more pieces, but oh well ...)
Thanks :) I did go back and finish a couple things but they were things I did really forget to do. Didn't take long though.
Now I'm working on an art trade and my first commission. Commission will take some time too. He likes Detail.
Yes, I need to do more simpler pics and I started sketching something "simple" a couple days ago. Ended up being a two character sketch with the most complex anatomy and detailyet. I can't help it, it just happens. I guess I think to much when I do these things although the concept sketch flowed out in just a few minutes. Oh, and while I was doing a cleaned up version I outlined a short story to go with it. If I knew how to type, I would write almost as much as I draw. I have a bunch of shorts outlined along with three novel series. Most done in long hand.(Faster). Probably will only finish some of the shorts though.
I will try and squeeze in a quickie like Nattaraexa-Enchantress. That took only 5 days sketch to finish. Thats fast for me.

Oh, that tends to happen to me as well ... I used to forget coloring some details and stuff, only realizing it after I uploaded a piece ...
I'm looking forward to see more works from you. :) And I can't wait to see the two character sketch you've been talking about. Details are always a wonderful thing, but sometimes it's not so easy to keep them at a paintable level. :)
Writing is always tricky ... I'm only working on a graphic novel, but a real novel does have way more things to pay attention to in that regard.
In any case - good luck, I'll keep watching and even commenting at times. :)

Thanks! I'm thinking a day or two on the sketch work, (off and on), a week to do her and a week to do the BG. Most of my drawing is done late evenings because of long hours at work. Nattaraexa was done, sketch to finish, in five days because I wasn't working on a special after hours project at the time.
btw, in regards to the story, I feel really bad about the pizza guy too, but what I was kind of implying at the end was that the tigress had lost a little bit of her soul, (or perhaps brought back something unwanted), while trying to see the future and being brought back to fast thanks to the pizza guy. Almost wrote up a little bit more at the end. A news headline about a serial killer praying on pizza delivery people, each a different species.

In the various stories I have outlined or have in some stage of completion, I have nothing dark or dark humor like this, just standard action/adventure/romance. The story was just an offshoot of an attempt to be a little funny.
In the story Talimandia is from, A trilogy if I ever could find the time, is a respected and often feared seer and accomplished horseman with no tendency to eat sentient life forms and there are no pizza delivery guys in sight.

Yyeeesss, a fluke....or the product of a sleep deprived artist who was drawing late one evening when, all of a sudden, a few pieces of a twisted tale appeared in his head along with a voice saying, TYPE THIS, and despite having to get up at 5:30 to go to work, typed nearly the Whole thing by 2:00 AM.
I wish I had the time, I love to write but unfortunately I don't have the time for even my own stories let alone my art which is the most important to me. I have talked to one writer who was interested in a colab. I have three trilogies outlined and a bunch of short stories in various stages of completion. I can handle the shorts myself but not the novels. It would help if I knew how to type, I'm faster with longhand.
Stories come easily for me and just seem to flow in detail with little effort. I also find it much easier to draw if I have a story to go with the pic. Most of my pieces are from a short or novel.
Perhaps I may consider a story commission if done in conjunction with an art commission at some point. Did you have a story in mind if you don't mind me asking?

Well, I would usually give the writer a piece of artwork that I commissioned from before and ask them to write a short story based on the artwork, after giving them some details of what I'd like to see in the story.
Here are some examples of what I mean
A picture is worth a thousand words... --> http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7393386/
Chapter 1: Playing God --> http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7393386/
Chapter 2: Escape to Freedom --> http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7625076/
Those two chapter stories are somewhat different from what I normally post. I have three (3) short stories (that are my usually forte) to post up with pics. I'm just editing said three stories before I put them up on my FA.

in after everybody else:
beautiful piece, I like her anatomy (are we perfect? no. so why should she?), her gear, the sparse BG (though TristanAlexander is right, a full BG would have made her stick out more), and her expression/body language.
the only thing that I could add would be that I think her tail root sits a tiny bit too low. could be the perspective, though.
I'd have said somethign earlier, but I'm way behind my inbox, so I was too late anyway. :)
