Description OMG this was harder than hell to finish! FULL-VIEW!!! D:<

This is a sketch that was merely done to test some ideas on Yume's designs that turned into a HUGE project that took about 5hrs to simply colour. Man, I have never ever coloured something in OpenCanvas before like this....O: I really do like the outcome, but it requires tons of patience; not my thing right now. Before some of you freak out on me - this is not OFFICIAL yet. Since Yume has no internet capabilities right now, I havn't gotten his ok or opinion on the change just yet. Instead of being a fox that's almost identical to 'Nuka, he's a Koala and Cat mix breed. And yes, that is a sort of tattoo thing on his shoulders. 'Nuka has a matching set of feathered wings on hers. B]

What the heck is this? Chibi? =/ Cause it's all wonky to me.

[Materials - Only 1,10,12] <-- Plz Click here for info.
[Dimensions] 600x1200 canvas, 17 multiply layers only.
[Completion] All done - 4hrs finished August 12th, 2006 .

I've already told you this, but man I love Yume's design xD He's so cute as a leopard. I love how you draw leopard ears.
Coloring= love. It's smooth and subtle and pretty. Clothing folds are very nice, lineart is nice, and Yume himself is cute.

:/ Mer - you're not the first to think that actually. I've been acused of copying it when I hadn't seen the original art till afterwards - so it's not going to stay that way for long. I want to say "thanks" but I'm not sure if it's the tattoo that's 'awesome' or the pic.

lol both. XD i love your coloring especially. :3 Eh, it happens considering "original" is hard to find these days because we are all influenced by many people o.o anyway, keep it up, nuka.

Cute as a teddy bear

Nice coloring work and nice work in his pose, especially with his body at a three quarter angle, and his face to the viewer!!

And his facial expression, as well as the design of his pants are pretty nice too

There is a loooooooong story behind it involving cosplay and such tho. You can find it either in my LiveJournal or [here] for the moment. (along with another journal or two. lol)

Deafblood [2006-08-13 16:20:58 +0000 UTC]

Teenage style? He looks like one. Um, no offense?
But then pose is simple yet sweet, and the colouring was definately worth it. I just love that background.

Wow, this looks awesome.

I really love his tail, and the wings/tattoo in his back are lovely. I like how they contrast with 'Nuka's.

His hair and ears are great, too.

Keep up the lovely artwork, Nanuka

If you're using the 1.1 version of OC, it can be very very annoying. Especially when it comes to doing backgrounds of any kind, since all the layers are set to multiply unlike the settings you have in PS. D:

Anyway, I think you've done a lovely job on this actually. The CG paint looking style really works for your style. I also have to say I love the pose on this. It's SO cute. And I like the fact the breed is a bit different. My question for you would be- does it fit his personality? XD Course you don't go by personality when picking anthro breeds do you? I'm not sure really. Cuz a fox fits you pretty well I think.

Anyways, lovely job on this hun! I can't wait to see a finalized design for Yume. I'm a bit confuzzled on how to draw him now, if I were going to try to lol. I've thought about it but... not sure if/when I'll get to it. o_O; with school eating my time away. grrr... >_>

Anyway!

Nanuka In reply to Horus-Goddess [2006-08-13 20:22:34 +0000 UTC]

x3 Thanks Marie. I've become very attached to the style of colouring too. If it didn't take so dang long, I'd work with it more often. And yea, I consider personalities and fave animals when making fursonas for people. His first choice was a bird...and I was like "D: NO" so we've discussed it recently. Hopefully he likes this, cause I sure do!

Horus-Goddess In reply to Nanuka [2006-08-13 20:35:21 +0000 UTC]

lol. You could make a mix of a bird and something else- that might be cool. But it's up to you. :3 I think it'd be pretty cool. If birds weren't so hard to make anthro (using human-like faces anyway), I'd probably draw my Horus-Goddess fusona more lol.

Alaurei [2006-08-13 06:51:05 +0000 UTC]

I like it! Your coloring on the computer has improved so much and so quickly. This was an OC? Jeeeze. I can't believe it. I know he'll like it. This is great, I can't wait for you to get a reference for him so that I can draw you twoooos! Come on. :3 You're so cute together. Great work! I love the shading you did here, is it new? Seems diff for some reason...

Nanuka In reply to Alaurei [2006-08-13 20:23:47 +0000 UTC]

^__^ Thanks alot! The shading isn't entirely new, it's a mix of old and new. Cause I shade with the actual colour and then a new layer with a lower opacity of black. :3

I still love it Nuka :3. I just absolutely LOVE the faded in colored blotches that make up his fur. Hell I can tell that would have taken forevers D:. Again I love the little dot designs on his tail and face <3
