Description EDIT: Fixed the flames and breath which should have been blowing in the wind. Also blurred the treeline.

My contribution to this years Anthro Calendar of which I am proud to say I am Producer! It's a lot of hard work, and at times I get frustrated and stressed, but it's worth the end result.

The 2011 year features extinct species of anthros and I chose to do the dire wolf - canines are my forte after all.

I was going to give the guy in the foreground some braids and hair flowing down his back but after painting them in I realised they just add clutter to the image.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE show your support of this calendar by preording - the artists put so much effort into each piece and for such a small price of $22 you can own a beautiful collection of images that would cost over $150 if purchased as individual prints. PLUS it's useful!

Dude, I love shots like this, where you're looking past the one person's hip... The other wolf's pose is pretty awesome too. Very cool image.

The composition here is EPIC. I love paintings where you feel like you're in the middle of the action. The fur texture and atmosphere with the cold fog on the ground are also great.

I agree with BubbleWolf, this is super atmospheric and has a definite solidarity to it. Very effective use of framing and a wonderfully dark and dramatic colour scheme!

A really atmospheric and solid image, I love the weight and aura the wolves give off!

I hope your very proud of the job you've done as an artist and producer of the calendar, because you very well should be !

$22 is the actual price of the calendar. $27 and $30 is the price including shipping to the appropriate location.

Y'know, it's very hard to tell the difference between anthro Wolves and Werewolves?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Ashalind In reply to Spuderific [2010-08-02 22:28:18 +0000 UTC]

Probably because the difference is not in appearance but in the presence or lack of a transformation.

Spuderific In reply to Ashalind [2010-08-03 00:50:03 +0000 UTC]

That and Werewolves seem to usually have a scarier appearance

Very beautiful. Looks like something out of a Werewolf: The Apocalypse handbook.
