Description Jimmy, for a trade with the most delightful ! Her hair was fun to paint, and the ear fluff. I get the sense that Jimmy is a very adventurous character, I think that is what I like best about her.

Edited: toned down the shadow a bit.

Oh, Squeek! I cannot TELL you how much I adore this! I agree with ZeroWiseman, at first glance I had to check if this was digital or not-- it is so smooth but has such a painterly, traditional feel. I love the blending of color and texture in her hair and ears especially, and her fabulously wrinkly shirt! I have always admired how you do clothing folds, they always look so thick and lustrous. And I am officially awestruck and envious of your use of that gorgeous textured background-- you really made her look like she's in that space, and not just layered on top of it; I think it's just the right touch of shading you did that completes that feel. This is really just so beautiful, I keep scrolling up to look at it
I love that, despite your busy schedule, you pull out all the stops and present me with something as lovely and super polished as this! You are kind of an artist superwoman, miss lady. You got Jimmy So Well. I love this. I love YOU. Can I use the word love enough in this comment? Yes. No. Lovelovelovelovelove
Thank you so much, lovely Beth! Trading with you is always the most supreme of pleasures, but this really takes the cake. I think I need to print this out on nice photo paper so I can hug it and rub it against my face.
I need to hustle my butt on your half-- it has been too long in the sketch phase.

This is so awesome, I just dig your use of textures and the way you shade. I feel very drawn to the feel of the hair and fur. I like how you shaded her inner ears and shirt. The folds and lighting look very accurate for the material.
I actually had to look at the category to see it was digital, it looks so real and has such a traditional feel to it... That's amazing work!

Thank you! Textures = love. It feels great to be putting more time into digital art again, and getting comfortable using the Intuos4. The touch ring and buttons are so worth the upgrade I made from my old 2.

I just want to say that looking at your art is very inspiring to me to try to work out some texture experiments. It looks so fantastic.
