Description
By-the-hour commission for Utunu of FA of his African Wild Dog character! This one presented more of a challenge than I anticipated. I spent more time on it than I thought I would. However, I had a BLAST working in those spotty markings, getting them to look like the coat of an African Hunting Dog, and compliment his body shape as well. Super fun one!12 hours 45 minutes in Photoshop with an Intuos 3 tablet

I think it's the detail on the fur and the pose itself that gives this piece such sense of motion!

As always, the coloring and textures are absolutely stunning (on top of perfect anatomy, of course!) and are made so much better with the pinpoint, methodical lighting. It illuminates such amazing detail, and that perspective makes it jump out so well!!

This is an absolutely amazing picture. In fact, all your pictures are amazing, but this is the first one I've found so that's why I'm telling you here. You are a brilliant artist. An epic artist, in every sense of the word.
Just...wow. I'm speechless.
