Artist's Comments

*has a battle with DA submission categories* I swear they're different everytime.
So - this thing is a horse/wolf/lion/deer...thing. Inspired by lots of random creature artwork I've seen here on DA as well as my fondness for chucking together animal bits and seeing what happens.
First real attempt at cell shading (-ish) since I first opened up photoshop and went 'oooooh'.
Took something like 3hours with wacom bamboo.

It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me.

^-^ thanks for the fav. Now that you meantion pokemon I can't help but think of suicune (my fav of the three lengenday cats) though it's possibly the blue that adds to that.
Speaking of which, the blue was practically an accident, I imagined more earthy neutral tones when I first thought of it and stripes instead of spots but I just went with whatever when I was doing it. ^-^
thnx again

Yea, you're right, it looks a bit like Suicune :) I think it would be cool, no matter colours and pattern:hug: np

whaddayoumean by freehand? I had a rough sketch in pencil, scanned it in then went over it (whilst correcting apalling -sp?- mistakes) in photoshop with a nice smooth brush; quite possibly the basic brush.
