Aw it's so nice, I love the coloring and the tiger!

I love the detail in this

Awsome

Absolutely breath taking ^^

Stunning, Blotch. I love the detail and the colors. Beautiful work. ^^

I wonder who he killed?

Maybe it's berry blood.

You know, those berries can be mighty juicy.

Moguli

Looks like a Blotch version of Shere Khan

Beautiful and an excellent quote.

What a scene. Beautifully rendered as always.

nice face he did XD

you make tigers look so awesome! 8D

Nice drawing, make me think about a adventure movie! :)

OMFG

Blood!! X3

As always, gorgeous!

An incredible pic to represent a strong quote

Very well done!

Great work !

Bad ass work there *thumbs up* Thats a favorite for sure

i forgot to add this... I love tigers <3 *squeals happily*

I love the Eyes of the tiger.

love the expression on his face, the ritual idea makes me want to know more of him :)

I think it's a her, not a him. :)

if it weren't for the tag you'd never know

I think it is Shere Khan, a male who is after Mowgli.

It says "Female."

Oh, I didn't see that. OK. But the story of the Jungle Book doesn't really have a female tiger in it, if I remember. Oh well, its a great picture anyway.

Shere Khan also wasn't an anthro tiger. ;]
The quote is an inspiration. I like Kipling a lot.

Ah, So do I "Open the old cigar-box, get me a Cuba stout-for things are running crossways, and Maggie and I are out". The Betrothed-Rudyard Kipling

Very cute tiger, and wonderful painting :)

Oh why, why can't we humans understand that second line p_q

Chrizt! The water and blood details are awesome! As the rest of the picture! Dang nice work, keep it up!

Amazing work! Love the detail an the expression :D

She's lovely. I always enjoy your painting style.

dude thats awesome.

"uhmmm, the statue is drooling on my knife...anybody has idea why?"

dude....if you read this...as always..you only draw for the best and reach farther..

Nice work. Why doesn't he use his claws and pointy teeth to hunt?

Because then he'd just get more muck on his pretty, pretty fur. And assorted grime really adds up when you have to wash yourself with your tongue.

Ah bollocks, double post....

Awesome

Beautiful pic!

Wow looks very beautiful

Nice picture again.

Nice ^_^

I just have to say that his expression is one of the cuttest looks I've ever seen :)

If I was washing a bloody blade and that was staring at me I would be freak out. But, that's my paranoia playing tricks on me again. Nice art by the way! I love the expression on the tiger's face! ^^

that tiger looks cute

awesome. Nice find on the quote too.

Interesting ritual the tiger must do to clean the knife. Nicely done, Blotch! ;)

It should be expected that you two are fans of Kipling, and rightly so.

The expression is wonderful, the details are gorgeous, the background is"wtf, insane!"
Lovely as always

Very wonderful.

The Jackal may follow the Tiger, but, Cub, when thy whiskers are grown,
Remember the Wolf is a Hunter -- go forth and get food of thine own.

Such an epic work, I always did like Kipling.

Outstanding. I love the way you two capture emotion in your artwork. The art you bring forth is simply amazing, and this is another fine example of it.

*wags*

The tiger looks so cute! The coloring in magnificent!

OxO
What does he hunt? Other furries?

I like the expression on the tiger's face, and how he just stairs directly into the statue's eyes.

So purrrrty!! *favs*

Wonderful.
Because you can never have enough comments like that :)

Her expression is one of mixed reverence and curiosity. I love it. :)

I can't help but think of Raj now every time I see one of your tigers.

Neat picture though.. love the leaves on the statue.

wow

I love the roots in the b/g as well as the flowery mane on the statue... Yes of coarse she is ridiculously cute with her expression as well ^__^

this is great, i love you clean work.

Great job as always. The muted background really lets the main figures stand out and you did an excelt job on the whiskers, a detail that NOONE ever adds in. The face does look a bit male, I would have expected an heaver upper eyelid line for a female, but I love the rootwork on the ruins.

Very nice, Blotch, I love it... first time I'm seeing your work, what media do you use, if I may ask? I really love this one in particular, moody, his expression leaves me to wonder what's on his mind.

Beautiful, how long'd you take for this?

Thanks! :]
I use mostly watercolour with the occational bit of acrylic. I think it took about 5 hours to paint, maybe an hour to draw and ink.

Look at all the comments you're getting, oh my goodness you must feel happy, haha. I envy you.

Watercolour? Really? Wow, incredible! And you finish things up with acrylics? I never really understood how that is done, seems so complicated, well you're very good at it, of course every artist doesn't feel a 100% satisfied with things, but rest assured, at least I am really touched and impressed by your works.

Five hours, my my, how long've you been doing this?

whiskers

wow.... that's beautiful. I'm speachless

I like how he's making eye contact with the statue.. That's really cool.

so much details! beautiful!

Extraordinary work.

Gorgeous! Your making me excited for RMFC in May!

i think its the backgrounds that give these so much richness, sort of like Frazetta or Heavymetal magazine 'Ranx-Xerox' artist

That is soo awesome. I am glad that I watch you.

OMG HAWTS! This is gold, once again Blotch! you should do more tribal art too!

amazing detail . ya did a great job on this one

This is what I watched you for... it's beautiful and loosk furry! <3

Please tell me, do you sell prints? I'm too poor to buy your originals, but I would be so happy to have your work framed and up on the wall, and this pic is one of the many that I would love to have!

Powerful

Perhaps one of these days, you'll let me commission you as well. I met you at the last FA:U, and you were picking and choosing from the people who approached; I guess you were going by who you liked the look of or something. :P

Another awesomely done image.

*is the hundred-thousandth person to say this, but still*

Wonderful, beautiful work, Blotch.

damn, how did u get so good?

WOW so cool ^.^
>HUGS< thanks ya'll

Kipling love.

Ye may kill for yourselves, and your mates, and your cubs as they need, and ye can; But kill not for pleasure of killing, and seven times never kill man. Rudyard Kipling, The Law of the Jungle

Sweet love the job u did. :)

cute eyes... ^^

Am I the only one who initially thought Blotch went emo and the tiger was cutting himself? Yes? Oh, sorry.

phantastische Arbeit!!! Ich liebe Ihrem Zaunübertritt sein so gutes...!!! * faved *

Oh man... please tell me you plan on selling prints of this at some point. Excuse the pun but "I'd kill to have it"!

Fantastic. I love the contemplative-type look on his face.

Your work is stunning as always

Gorgeous work per usual. <3

I am going agree with many of those who already posted and say it is a beautiful work of art with wonderful detail. You can see the time and efferent but into this peace of art work. I for one love the detail especial when I noticed the arm band that covers the tiger strip and the stripe looks as though the arm band is pressing into the arm giving the picture real depth in such a small area.

that's so cool man....

that tigers face is absolutly the perfect expression, and done so well!
i love it so :-

Rudyard Kipling would be honored.

Let me just say that you have a beautiful style

Beautiful, and quite intense. :X)

Keep peace with Lords of the Jungle --

You two just seem to out do yourselves with each new picture. :)

Much more than excellent! I love this picture. It's great, I congratulate you, you are a teacher.

Mucho más que excelente! Me encanta este dibujo. Es genial, te felicito, eres un maestro.

awesome putting in favorites now!

this is so pretty, and quite impressive I might add

Happy Eid? XD

Beautiful work here, as always :) I love the rendering on the fur.

Now this is the Law of the Jungle,
as old and as true as the sky;
And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper,
but the Wolf that shall break it must die.

blotch,,,,,i dont know how you do it old boy,,,,,,but damn,,,,,

Amazing work. I love the detail <3

Beautiful <3

Awesome as ever! My only criticism, compared to everything else in the pic, the eyes seem a tiny bit too 'toony', if you know what I mean. They jumped out at me and seemed to clash with the rest of the style a little bit, but only a little bit.

Blinding, disturbing, inscrutable and eloquent; ineluctably wrong in all the right ways. My new favourite Blotchism.

watercolor.... damn your good!

Oh.... This is amazing. It's got everything I like. Tigers, tribal stuff, relics, and jungles.

DO YOU WANT CUT YOU DICK??

I really like the expressions in this one.

thats incredible, makes my art look shite, hehe
but then again youve had a buhzillion more years practice then i have and im still a pup

awesome pic

So pretty! ^^ I like his eyes. :3

That's beautiful - I love your detail and you perfectly capture the tiger's expression!

Beautiful...

Absolutely LOVE the feel and emotion of this. I'm pretty sure I commented about it with you here, but thought I'd say it again just in case. Amazing stuff.

Really gorgeous. I love the depth of the background in this piece- you really get the impression that it's a big, wide open space. Nicely done.

beautiful simply beautiful.

This is amazing. The color work, the amount of detail as well. Also, the tiger's expression is very well read. I personally think it coincides nicely with the title. He looks very appreciative. This is wonderful.

What media did you use? Pencil?

im a fan of an actual story behind the picture so fav'd

Faved and I'd buy the print.

OMG luffs this picture ... your art has so much detail and it just frikkin rawks!!!!!

I'm so happy that I got it at the art show at EF

Don't mind me, just wading through my pile of watches...

Such awesome work, I love it! :D It's like Gargoyle and Tiger are comparing hunting strategies. ;)

I like the realistic fig trees all growing everyware...

This is stunning, gorgeous colors and rich textures! The imaginary really transports me to another world

It has so much atmosphere, I wonder what kind of a ritual is it..

looks more like drool than water

I like the atmosphere and the expression on this characters face. It gives the audience a "?" on their minds saying what and why is she doing this makes more us in fact more enticed to finding out more about this. In general I love the piece, this is somehow very poetic of you to make and that I appreciate or in fact WE appreciate this work of yours. Very simple and yet deep in meaning. Best work for dramatization so far Blotch. Good Job
