Description Another doodle, this time of DeCry. You can tell I was getting more and more frustrated with it as you go down the picture... the eye and head look pretty good... and the tail looks like absolute ASS.

No pun intended.

Mechanical pencil on Strathmore bristol, 11"x14". About seven hours. I was up till about 5AM drawing this bitch!

These are my favorite ones of yours, the pencil medium on subjects with backgrounds... Love the textures.

If I worked my entire life on a single picture... it would not look this good. You are a goddess.

The more I see your art, the more impressed I become. You've tremendous skill -- After all people who do not understand how color/values work, cannot use pencil/graphite as a medium. You've a very strong grasp of it and it shows ... Beautiful work

I'm just going to have to agrue with you here. I don't think your tail looks like ass. It definatly looks like a horse type tail to me! Ass tails are long with hair on the end. XD

The head does look fantastic. I also like the eye and those paws. Lovely texture for the fur, as well. Grand work. n_n
