I did say there was a Facebook version the main card hehehehe. The others are variations of this. Though in saying that, the Tumblr version will be much sexier and hotter than even the DA Nude *chortles*

You have a Facebook? Why didn't anyone tell me? And you mean to say there's a more saucy version of what's already on dA?

Claudija In reply to MartynThings [2013-12-18 22:12:20 +0000 UTC]

there is indeedy but it's only found on my Tumblr due to content. We're forbidden to show any fluid of any kind so being that Luciana is a squirter (during orgasm the fox's nectar sprays like a jet instead of the more normal method). Loulabelle isn't unknown to squirt herself. Also the Tumblr version has all clothing removed and additional mistletoe that is not found here I just have to finish up Luci's orgasm before it can be posted up *chuckles*

Hehehe, here are the complete collections of the Card:-

Loulabelle Francesca LáCharalé - claudijatzandrapova.tumblr.com…
Luciana Sylvana Monteiro - claudijatzandrapova.tumblr.com…
Completed cards in preview, FB, DA and Tumblr Editions - claudijatzandrapova.tumblr.com…

Each one shows how I developed the cards and even previews as well as shows in the last link: the Tumblr-Exclusive Version that will not be anywhere else. You're kinda right as DA used to let us do a lot more than we can now but it's being watched by Government everywhere and with some of us getting our art inspiring Hollywood.... we're being given stricter restrictions on what we can and cannot post up. Bit of a mare but oh wells... price of fame noes? *giggles*

Oh boy, I would not have the patience to do all that. My last pic took me an hour to do and I was tired afterwards. I'll never know how you do it.

Claudija In reply to MartynThings [2013-12-21 15:14:05 +0000 UTC]

Awww, the biggest part of any work of mine is the sketch. That's the skeleton and if you mess that up then everything goes to pot. Let's take Loulabelle on the card, she had to be resized as she's smaller than Luciana in all regards, I noted it on her profile here..... yet if left as was, she'd appear to be twice Luciana's size hehehe. She had a resize to put her in line with the fox.

Luciana:- 6ft tall, 38e-25-36
Loulabelle:- 5ft 7, 38C-25-36

So she can't be bigger than Luci hehe. But yes, sketches take the longest for me and I can spend days on the lineart alone as that inked drawing will be the core of my completed work and should it not be anything short of perfect for me: my end result will be unable to make it work hehe.

Once my sketch is in and done, it then gets made into the penned lineart that I sometimes show off here to give people an idea what things look like at start. Then we get into the flats that only take about an hour at most so total time so far is roughly on average: four hours. That's just linework and flat layers. Colouring takes about five hours so we have about 9 total hours to get from sketch to the painting you see on here. For some specials like the Seasonal Greetings card, the extra additions take me up to about two-three hours to decide and then do hehehe. So about half a day a piece of work that you guys get to enjoy, comment on and collect. And because you lot mean so much to me, the Temporary Gallery has each stage on display for you to see them at your own pace and try it for yourselves along with my tutorial on how it's all done and put together hehe

Claudija In reply to MartynThings [2013-12-22 02:07:34 +0000 UTC]

hehehe sorry I get carried away *giggles* but my art is something that takes a long time to really do right: so don't be ashamed that you were knackered after an hour hon, you still make the cutest characters if you ask me. Fi in particular looked so sweet with her little pigtails *noddles sweetly*

Yeah, I've done two pictures since and the feedback has been a little scarce with the exception of the one person who likes everything I do but he's just a friend. Maybe I should reassess my artstyle again...

Claudija In reply to MartynThings [2013-12-23 12:10:08 +0000 UTC]

well I think it's cute, especially as it's on a stylus on a game screen: I'm not too comfortable drawing onto an LCD for some odd reason... all my work is hand-drawn in pencil then it's inked before scanning - long way yus but it just seems to look neater and cleaner at the end. Drawing right onto the screen weirds me out *giggles cutely*

MartynThings In reply to Claudija [2013-12-23 12:44:45 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, my drawings don't seem so doodley on it as it is on paper. I really want to get an XL model so I can have a larger screen to work off but, well, you know what unemployment is like!


I decided to put my stuff on hold as the feedback isn't as good as it is previously and I never place in contests so I thinki i'll put things on hiatus for now. Need to reassess how I do things first...

Well sometimes we need a break *noddles*. Mine was forced... two friends bitching at one another in a drama fest drove me nuts to the point I started hating what I did... poor Sasha Bunny fell victim to it all and my boss released me as my work had gone from the high-class he knew me capable of: to barely better than a four-year-old kid. Then the two pushed me over the edge, I threw my graphics tablet and pen at the wall and left art for nearly a year. Felicia the Catwoman (red fur w/ purple hair), was my return to art trying to see if that old spark, the old flame was there. So basically don't take a year out hehehe it doesn't always work *giggles*. Some took what they thought would be a break and have never drawn again, others took a break and forgot how to draw: then got frustrated as part of them still could do the pre-break art but the hand wasn't talking to the brain hehe. Me? Well Luci and Loula are a lot more like the quality I gave to my Sexyfur works: which means I'm slowly but surely, getting back what was there naturally prior to the whole drama fest hehehe

Wow, sosounds like quite a backstory. Would hate to be in those situations. Glad to see it came to a nice end. Sometimes you have to upend the teatable and try again with a clean slate. I'll pop back to see other artists stuff but not comment. Just frustrating not getting respnses I would like.

BTW, I accidentally deleted the last message lol oops. Haha nude year. I'm sure we'll speak before then

*noddles*, it also happens sometimes that an artist of any kind: "reinvents" themselves meaning they take a totally new direction with what they create. I mean Miley Cyrus for example, went from clean-cut all-American sweetheart to almost a slut hehehe not all re-inventions work but usually it does hehe. Just remember, enjoy whatever you do no matter what as the moment you stop enjoying it is the time you need the change *sagely nod*

See? Even other people do Fi better!


Wow, never thought i'd be compared to Miley 'I'm a grown up so now I have act like an idiot' Cyrus. That is true. Like I said, I chose not to ditch the whole style but just go for whatever I feel like drawing. Take a little more note of my previous works rather than the modern 'must do a skeleton for reference style. Nothing is perfect but i would love to develop it. My colouring and shading is never great which is annoying but..well, who knows.


I recently went to a cosplay dinner on Sunday. i didn't cospla but it was awesome to bowl and have pizza with a few distance friends. i know i'm not like close friends with them but it makes me appreciate friendships and how i'd like to develop them more. The sad thing was I got off the train from Cambridge and it just occured to me that my life is really dull and mundane. I really need to get to know those people more and meet up more...

it's okay you haven't got to share anything if you rather not: just you know you have someone *points at self* who is willing to listen and offer what advice they have if you feel you need someone just to talk to. All of us need someone to talk to now and again *smiles cutely*
