Description
12" x 16.5" on board. He's modeled after a foo dog (shishi) from a temple in Nikko , Japan that I came across. He looks alot cooler up close in real life...the gold really pops out.$60 plus shipping...

oh wow, this is simply beautiful! 
I just love the colour choice and the highlights as well. Overall, the pose is dynamic, and its just a pleasing image to look at.
I particularly love the reddish shading tones used in the blue of the skin on the Foo Dog.

Wow, 60 dollars... it must be really awesome... would it go well hanging on a wall?
Might I add this is definatly an awesome looking picture, why I put it in my FAVs before thinking of what I should type to you.

Yeah $60 whole dollars. I charge so much for stuff I just poop out! No,hanging it on a wall would be very bad. I would hide it in your couch cushions or just tape it to the floor.

Here is a little tip when talking to professionals, especially if you ever would like to work in this industry.
Don't be an asshat.
Also realize that once you reach a certain level of sucess and quality, art does indeed exceed a $5 sketch of someone's character that you drew at the food court.

I like the style that's done in; it really seems to do justice for this kind of thing. And the clouds are neat, too.
