Wow, those are some great drawings, HF. The RPGT one is my favorite.

Thanks. :3 That one was the one I spent the most time on...and probably the most fun to do.

I didn't mean for this pic to be so detailed when I started it. <_>

It was going to be just a random dragon. But then...then my mind went, "well, it can't just be floating there. Add a background!" So I did. And then I thought..."this would look even better with shading and highlighting."

And, two hours and forty-five minutes after I started, at close to ten thirty at night, I finished.

I think the background is the best part of the pic...dunno why...might be just the whole "moon over the mountains" thing...

Halloween is coming closer, and that means time to start practicing with fake blood and makeup! This is just one idea, but I love it. Crying blood adds 100 creepiness points as is. But a small blonde girl with green eyes, black lipstick, wearing a red dress, with kickass vampire teeth on top of it all "crying" blood? That's pretty damn creepy. I'm going costume shopping this weekend and I'm gonna see if I can use a brand of really nice fake blood I've been after near my eyes.

Anyway. I am actually pretty proud of this drawing. :3 I love how the blood turned out.

interesting. get some white lenses and make the hair look stringy and dishevelled [and dry looking] and you have a costume that will scare the sweets out of the houses you visit :P


was checking out the older art and realised Selena looks like she faceplanted into a blender XD

i think i figured out what looks wrong about the scars though: might want to dull the colour saturation a bit. choose a shade of pink closer to grey. that way they are still pink like old scars would be on her, but they aren't neon pink. more realistic...

SS: lawl. XD That's what I was going for. XP

KP: The hair style sounds like me when I've just rolled out of bed. XD There's a place somewhere around here that sells white lenses cheaper than online, but I dunno where it is. A friend of mine does though.

As for Selena; lmao. I'll keep that in mind for future pics.

Small picture is small. Sadface.

Oh well. :<

This was originally for art class - a project where we had to take three animals, mash them together, and make it work. I love big cats, so naturally, I picked my three favorites - leopard, tiger, and lion. :3

There's another one like this coming, a female version, as soon as I finish the markings.

looks good. though IMO, the neck needs to be slimmed down a bit [from the throat end rather than the back of the neck] and the front legs need to be bulked up a tiny bit near the top. made wider. to give the impression of muscle. aside from that, the only thing i think needs adjusting is the 'ankle' positions between the two hind legs. one seems to have it way higher up the leg than the other.

the claws would look cooler if they were curved slightly more. maybe given a kind of 'root'. that in turn could also assist if you're thinking of giving them a seperate colour. still. these are just suggestions...

Yeah, I see what you mean. It's difficult to get the legs to cooperate with me though, seeing as I'm more used to head shots than full-body pics. A bit more practice and I should be doing better.
