Description This was fun. Did this off the top of my head, pose and all. This picture is a lot like my sketches. The only difference is that it is on card stock. This 3x3 picture is a part of a project I'm working on. When I'm done, I'll put together 6 pictures to make a display.

Oh, and I don't expect most of you to understand the relationship between the title and the picture. Its a secret between me and a friend!

Also, there is a complement picture for this called Reverberation, which is off Aerisis. This will go in a different display of her own.

You use big words. Makes me think. I like thinking. Makes me happy. I'm going to use this word in the next paper the teacher assigns. This is such a gorgeous picture too! I love how crisp this seems while still looking natural. Eclipsis's wings look great. They seem so detailed, but kind of minimalistic all at once like those old ink on rice paper scrolls. I love the pose too and how the tails are held. I don't see any glaring flaws. The hind leg seems held strangely, but I'm not sure if that's a flaw or if it's just in motion. Overall, this is such a great piece.

I don't know about that leg either. I think the size creates an illusion that it was well done, because I did use very simplistic strokes to make it. (zig zags for the feathers) Hmm... minimalistic... I'm kinda new to that term. I've heard of it but don't actually know what it is.

Wow, this looks amazing! And you only did this on a 3x3 cardstock! Wow, you've put so many little details into it! I expecially love the shadows!

Yah, its small, but I fear that its too big for the picture frame I was hoping to put it in.

Yay for spur-of-the-moment/ different poses. The fur here looks beautful, so soft and real O_O Wings, what a wonderful gift. You draw those quite well, too, especially considering the space you have to work with.

the pose rox, he looks so aggresive like an 'i'm the boss, don't mess with me' look. i luv the way u do ur pencil work, the textures are amazing and how the little details in the feathers come out. ^_^

keep up the good work

Wow! That looks very well drawn! I think this is your personal best, in my opinion. ^ ^
The wing is magnificent.. and you can see like.. every little feather in there! That's amazing time and effort!
For some reason it kinda looks like a mix of your character and Koishii! Or something.. that's what I see at least. XD;;

The standing pose... looks so huge and like.. gives this aggressive look. ^ ^
Great job on this, Eclipsis!

The feathers are an illusion of strokes. I'm still baffled at my "mistake".

Well, Koishii gave me the idea to put wings on him in the first place. It was a long time ago and all it was was a doodle on something she mailed me.

Thank you very much. I like this too.

Wow! You sure are talented with your pencils! I love how deep and full you make your pictures. Really, a huge step above most straight pencil art. Great job on the textures and pose. Also, the starry background is very well done. Good stuff! Keep it coming.
