Red panda WIP7

I have no idea what to do with perspective when it comes to the background so I am just going to feel it out. I am not sure if the edge of a bed would be visible from such as angle, and if it is I am afraid of making something like the edge of a bed look odd. In my head the model is rather small maybe under 5 feet so my idea is to just make big pil...

Red panda WIP6

A good start for the head I think, feels very smooth so far.

Hope you like!

Red panda stream

Streaming!

Stream Redpanda.

I will be streaming work on the red panda today around 4 EST!

Sabertooth WIP2

Just a little more refining and the all important framing. Still not super sure about the sketch yet so to avoid lingering il do just as planed and start working on the red panda as far as color goes.

I just really want those legs and paws to pop but I still want to give the impression of a semi anthro creature that can run on all fours. I f...

Saber tooth WIP1

Here is the main idea. I am going through some sort of weird stage where I am really unsure where I want to take most of my work. I often tell my self I just need to push myself a little more and that I am just making excuses but I think I am really hitting a speed bump mentally. I don't thinks its burnout because I have been pacing myself and I am...

Red panda WIP5

Once again leaving this WIP for the 5$ tier as the project is taking a while and I am still unsure what I want to do with it. Going to be lightly working and tweaking the image a little here and there but in the meantime working on another sketch. this one will be unlike the griffon as I feel I could finish it but I want to give this image time so ...

This months prospects.

This month I am going to try to aim for at least 3 images or 4 if I get the chance. my current project is proving to be a little difficult for me so to avoid to much anticipation I might post a WIP for the 5$ tier so those that pledged that amount at least know what's in the works. I might also start working on another sketch if the current project...

Species Poll

Large animals won the last poll. I am in the mood to work on an extinct creature, so here are some creatures that are no longer with us. 200lb+ average.

Red panda WIP4

Might not seem much of a difference but most of the time spent on this image has been these little tiny things that have bothered me. I would go back and forth between older and newer iterations with little changes like a larger paw or a smaller rear and spend a literal hour resizing and reshaping various small parts to figure out the perspective. ...

Size Poll

While the month draws to a close I am taking it easy and thinking that 3 images is good for this months quota, however I will still be working on my current image to finish it early next month. I might also work on another sketch or plan out another project so while I work Il do some of these polls.

This one is about size when it comes to th...

Red panda WIP3

Going to count this one as a the 3rd work in progress, as it is part of the process. still want to fix the prospective on this one just a bit. I jumped the gun and deleted the older image because I did not like it at first, now I go back to it on here and decide I actually like it again. God dammit. going to recover the image just to have the pose ...

Project update.

Suppose the end of the month has me with a little less focus, I am going to be attempting another Red panda sketch with another angle. if not to use it for the main project, at least to get more practice in. wanted to end this month with a 4th project but I may instead finish this one very early next month.

Red panda WIP2

This is often part of my workflow, I often do this sort thig. I save every so often so I have multiple iterations of the same project as it progresses. Sometimes I spend hours just on the crevasse of leg or tiny placement of the head. often what happens is that I go back a few files to see how much the sketch has changed and if I like the more orig...

Red Panda WIP1

General Idea for now, still not too sure about the pose over all when it comes to prescriptive, as its not a completely top down shot but a slightly lower angle one. I might have to change some things.

let me know what you think!

Red panda up next!

 My next image is going to be a red panda. a fit athletic build in a provocative pose shot from a rear angle. I plan on working on a difficult angle on a soft bed so its going to take a bit to get a sketch I like down. I thought of a north american badger at first, then a raccoon however I want to get used to more saturated colors that critter...

Male pine marten

Here it is! tell me what cha' think.

I feel like I did not make him as shy as I wanted to, but I am hoping it comes across at least a little. he does have nice biceps though!

Pine Marten WIP 6

Need to add some of the seams of the couch as well as really get into little lighting details and fur details. of course the tail too! Let me know what you think!

Marten stream

Streaming!

5PM EST

Pine Marten WIP 5

I was going to leave this WIP for after the stream but I got pretty motivated today. Next WIP will be after the stream tomorrow EST, for now I rest.

Pine Marten WIP 4

Wanted to have part of the subject, couch, and back ground ready to go, that way I have a better feel for the overall tone of the image.

Going to have at him a little more tonight but before the next WIP I am going to stream some work.

Pine Marten WIP3

Prepping this one right now. going to be working on many layers so this one is going to be pretty complex but I hope to have more fun than trouble.

Female body type poll

Wanted to have atleast one WIP a day but for the moment I am trying to rap my head around working with leather and backgrounds to get ready to tackle that couch in my current project.

Some one try and break the tie in the previous poll!

Pine marten WIP2

A cleaner sketch but I still want to pick at the sketch a little more until I am completely happy with what I have and I can see what to do next in my head.

Female body language poll

Here is a poll for a female project. going to keep this one going for a bit just like the last poll. Will most likely work on a sketch in unison with my current project. 

Pine marten WIP1

A lower rez chicken skratch sketch. even so it took me a while to get to this point as the pose is proving very difficult. Alot is going to change to be sure.

any thoughts on anatomy or perhaps something that you might see off that I don't would be super helpful! 

Next project ideas

not going to make a pole for this one just want to hear what sort of creatures you all want to see to give myself an idea.

The polls that won are a shy pose with a toned and fit body, and I already have a plan to work on a partial shot of a model reclining on a sofa.

being a more gracile morphology I will be working with I am looking ...

Witch rat.

Had such a rough time with this one. I struggled greatly to continue in fact, but I also learned a lot about lighting and exposure. Dimly lit photos tend to have lighter blacks. kinda counter intuitive but true!

really gave this one feral top to bottom proportions but gave her some shapely shoulders and large hips as well and a nice plump bo...

Up coming male poll (body type)

I plan to do these very same polls with the female after this. hope this is fun.

A shy pose won the last Poll.

Body type might change some of the species I work with. 

Skinny might be something like a civet or ferret, toned and skiny might be something like a med sized wild cat, Very Fit might be something like a large cat or h...
