I promise I'll get these filled out a bit better once I upload stuff to photobucket. In the meantime, a lot of it will be linked to my deviantART gallery pages until then. And then it'll be both (since photobucket will have the smaller size and resolution versions and DA will have the bigger, better quality versions).
Most of my artwork is of females (and a lot of those are catgirls. Yes, I'm a furry. ******** you blaugh ) Random question, though... Why are people so retarded about furries? Yeah, there's some freaky creepy ones that are quite nasty. But you know what? There's that type of person in every single group out there. So shut it. And look at the artwork instead, foo!

Part 1 - You just read it Part 2 - Guys! Woot! Part 3 - Gaia specific artwork Part 4 - Feeeeemales Part 5 - Other
NOTE! I'm trying to figure out how to thumbnail, or at least size down the images a lot with BBCode. No luck at the moment. So my apologies for the size of the posts. I'll also eventually finish uploading all the images portrayed here to photobucket since Elftown killed the quality of the images when it comes to remote linking.

FAQ
* What program(s) do you use? I use adobe photoshop CS2
* Do you use a tablet? If so, which one? Yep, I use a Wacom tablet. They're very good and you don't have to get a large one for it to work out well. I'd really recommend a smaller tablet if you wish to save money (I use a small tablet) but still get excellent quality
* Do you take commissions / have an art shop? Not generally, no. I'm a very lazy person and when I try to draw something that I wasn't just feeling tons of inspiration on, I can't get it to work right and I just... don't have any fun with it. I also get easily distracted. Even artwork I'm completely inspired on has a 67% fatality rate. IE I start another piece of work or get distracted by a video game before it's done and it sits there forever unfinished sweatdrop
* How do you get so good?? I think "good" is really a subjective term that varies from person to person. But, ignoring that.... It's just practice. I know we all hate hearing that. But it's the truth. You may not be as good as you want to be now, but keep at it and you'll start getting there. Patience and perseverance. Tutorials tend to help as well. No, I can't give you pointers. But I can give out some links to some totally awesome tutorials that I've used to help me along smile

heart Superbe!
You are amazing. The time you put in each drawings to go down to the details (I can tell you handpainted those scales, hair and feathers) really shows through, and I adore the softness of the shading you use on the skin and clothes. *_*
I'd molest Copycat on the spot and would want to see Iridessa move, to see if the scales shines and wings as brilliantly as the jewels and eyes would. You really make great textures and interesting looking characters that make me feel they are more than meets the eye. Thank you for showing us these; I can't wait to see more! (Yes, I've already stalked your galleries.)
As a note, I never figured out how to do thumbnails on gaia either. So I just made mine on photoshop by copy-pasting things into a set file and saving the file as different names for each. D= If you figure out anything, tell me too?

That's one of the problems I have >_< I know there are artistic ways to trick the eye into seeing more detail than there is. So you don't have to draw out each feather, each scale, etc... But every time I try that, it looks terrible in my eyes. Which is why I haven't drawn more of my naga like I meant to sweatdrop
Or more of Iridessa. I love kobolds so much, lol!
