(Krystal was initially on my list of references too, but I dropped her after being unable to identify any signature details to incorporate into the design.)

If all nine tails are seen then the situation must truly be life or death -- and the kitsune may even be already plotting a curse to use as its last resort.

Streaming down its back are eight distinct "tassels" of fur that provide defense against predators, but which can also be fanned out as a display or warning. Combined with the fox's abilities, it can project an appearance of nine full tails, but only one tail is actually the real thing.
8x5", inverse colored pencil.
The smaller image at bottom was inspired by this asset I found while searching for reference material early on. (I even used it as a placeholder in composition until my version was drawn.)]]>Lucent Moonfox by Stratadrakeurn:uuid:8a74c37c-436b-c96b-aa7a-60aeae1c36692022-10-21T18:05:27-07:00He's done! And right on time, too.
A Lucent Moonfox has modest abilities, such as conjuring foxfire or creating illusions. The latter includes being able to change what appearance he projects -- technically this means he can appear perfectly human, but he generally refuses to let his true nature be hidden under disguise.
The armor pads are a clue to which art prompt inspired this idea. It is actually like the 4th or 5th attempt at placing some kind of clothing/dress on him (most of which I couldn't make work with this composition).
8x5", inverse colored pencil (first time using that technique in literal years).]]>Lucent Nine-tail Fox WIP by Stratadrakeurn:uuid:407b38e4-b403-3bc7-4e84-f674c24b3de22022-10-15T21:24:57-07:00Second drawing for my little art prompt -- the same fox, but now invoking his full kitsune powers.
Hope that you never have to see more than one tail. If all nine come out, it is already too late.

This fox has abilities such as illusions (this is technically not his true form) and foxfire, which also grow stronger under moonlight.

I have used this creature design in a few of my stories (one of my main characters is one, in fact). An "alce" or "spined gryphon", the signature flares on the shoulders of this wingless, four-legged avian could be either decorative feathers or hardened spines depending on which story it is.
(No my art is not dead, it was exactly where I left it! ...but I did need to get a new scanner, and one does not "simply" shake off several years' worth of rust.)

Holy crap, I finally have artwork to submit. O_O It's only been forever. Ha ha! Anyway I actually wasn't going to do as much with this drawing as I did... but it just kept growing. Originally it was just Zelda posing with her sword, but then idea after idea kept coming and well here we are. I have never attempted a nouveau drawing before... so I have to admit I wasn't really sure where to start, but I came up with a design and stuck with it. I think I might even do one for Link and Ganon as well, that might be fun!]]>Boo-Boo's Be Gone by crocdragon89urn:uuid:ca1e9b1d-c41b-b20b-5641-f7c07a7cb0ff2013-08-29T19:13:02-07:00So uh, I did a thing. After like, what, a year or two since I last posted here?
Anyway, Out of boredom I was browsing one of my old sketchbooks and I stumbled upon this sketch I had done in '05. I don't think I ever posted it here. Well, I decided to redo it and I don't think it looks too bad, but uh, yeah.
Croc must've said something to Constanza (the one being all pouty and huffy in the back), and rightfully got his butt kicked, and by a girl no less. lololol. I kid. And so her little sister Isabella plans to heal him with her magical healing powers (No, she has none. I'm just being stupid.)
Sooo. Yeah. Old art made new...ish.
Also, that's a crap ton of green. ]]>Absol Rumor... by Stratadrakeurn:uuid:21bc9c65-c572-4a6f-8155-28730036f0c92013-08-09T05:34:10-07:00According to rumors, Absol is getting a "mega evolution" in Pokemon X/Y.
And according to the latest images, it apparently looks like THIS.
I like Absol plenty much as-is and would never accept him getting an evo, but . . . I gotta admit it -- I love this new design just as much. (And there's always room for some Okami swirls....)

Character: Aang
Medium: Pencil, paper, photoshop
Time Taken: 6-8 hours
Oh look, another drawing!! I have to admit I am surprised it took me this long to submit some Avatar fanart... It's one of my favorite shows! So I decides I would start by following the Avatar cycle. Expect to see a Water: Katara next!
I actually had a difficult time coming up with a pose for Aang. I guess Air isn't my element. I really wanted a swirling motion to illustrate the Airbending style. I finally settled on on this post though. I also wanted to experiment with color a bit on this one. I chose a blue background and I thought it might be neat to have orange and yellow near the base of the tornado, as if Aang were moving so fast he was a blur.
Enjoy!]]>Shadows of the Temple by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:2ffaaf5e-7b13-1693-97ba-f25a1b8e3d142012-08-05T14:42:17-07:00Holy crap! Is this a drawing?? Why yes it is!
Series: Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time
Character: Link, Navi, & some Wolfos.
This piece belongs with the other two Zelda pieces I added forever ago. Now I have done one of each of the three tunics! Yays! Now what will I do. :P
Actually, this piece was an experiment for me. I wanted to try and make a picture that was done fast (well faster than I usually color) but still have the amount of quality I require from myself. I was faster for sure, and I am very pleased with the overall result. I do feel though that with practice I can do much better and be much faster.
So hopefully this will be the first of many new drawings to come. I hope you enjoy.]]>Elder Kitan by Stratadrakeurn:uuid:69c95d5a-cfbb-b5d3-dda3-33afa255879e2012-06-10T18:14:58-07:00"What are you talking about? I do not have three tails!"
(...sure, go ahead and keep telling yourself that.)
----
Anyway, this is Kitan as he appears in my 2011 Nanowrimo novel. He doesn't particularly like being called an Elder, and he absolutely refuses to let anyone talk about his tail(s) in front of him. But he still has the best nose of any character in the setting, quick feet to keep him alive, and is second in authority only to Rava.

Some people suggested I try another human for my next speedpaint so... here's what I've got. It doesn't... quite look like Loki but... good practice and it's close enough! XD Never drawn him before so it was a challenge. :)

So here's me making an attempt at what their official designs look like. (Somebody leaked scans of a CoroCoro magazine article onto the Internet, which included a two-page spread revealing their new forms)
Alt-form Landorus almost reminds me of Raikou for some reason....]]>My Boys by kobayashiurn:uuid:aa3f2e6a-8156-77e5-dae0-a7d844cc5a332012-01-11T18:58:19-08:00A little drawing I did of myself with my three rat boys, Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato. =3]]>Sceptile and family by Stratadrakeurn:uuid:5a23e6ee-9633-4179-30d4-907c139cfcba2011-09-09T19:16:15-07:00Completed drawing of the full Treecko-Grovyle-Sceptile evolutionary line.

(Original here)
This is my take on said gryphon -- no digital skills required, just print a copy, redraw into my sketchbook and color in.
I chose tiger stripes because (1) tigers are awesome, and (2) I had already printed several tiger photos for reference on a different gryphon.

I'm quite positive most if not all of you have forgotten him. I can't say I blame any of you since it's literally been years since I ever posted anything with him.
Bruno is a bounty hunter who also happens to be a werewolf. A German werewolf. Except he's not your ordinary bounty hunter. Instead of going after people who skip out on court dates and what not, he goes after supernatural creatures who do have a price on their head. Not just him, but a few other people he works with. They're part of an organization called the DAPCU, which stands for Department of Abnormal Phenomena Containment Unit.
Anyway, I was going through my gallery here and saw the old pictures of Bruno I had done, mainly this one http://www.fanart-central.net/pic-505013.html and I look at this. I have come along way from where I first started, and it feels good man :D
For now enjoy the hulking man beast that is Bruno.]]>Various Jason Doodles by crocdragon89urn:uuid:d3daace4-5472-785b-54af-7f2aa4047ae42011-06-07T15:52:51-07:00What's this? A post after all these months (and quite possibly years?) Why yes, yes it is.
A lot has been going on, mainly more character development and what not. Croc has changed quite a bit, so much so he's no longer a wolf but a pitbull, but he's still part crocodile, and still short tempered. And his name i actually Jason, Croc is just a nickname, hence the title being 'various Jason doodles'. I should also mention the demon fox possessing his body. That would be Amanojaku, a mischievous demon banned from the demon world and sentenced to Jason's body as punishment for pulling a prank on one of the much bigger and more powerful demons of his world. Jason just doesn't have much luck it seems. :V
I was trying to draw Jason with a more cheery attitude, hence the 3 doodles atop the page. The rest were recent. I also tried making him look more Asian. I'm getting better at it, I think.
The last doodles on the bottom left are of Jason at his new job. He's a bouncer for a popular night club called Casa Del Gato (House of The Cat.) It's basically a club where people can dance, drink and watch girls strip. Which is why I've bulked him up a bit more. He was already intimidating, but with added muscle, it increases his intimidation. The girl pressin' her boobs against Jason is a character belonging to
Cleveartois93 over on FA.
Also, if you haven't noticed, I've made Jason's underbelly darker. I literally grabbed a picture of a Crocodile off Google, used the color picker from Photoshop to copy the color, and viola. I think it looks better, but that's just me.
Enjoy]]>Scar by Greykittyurn:uuid:10509aca-1292-6da6-c901-2d9b648d9dcb2011-04-27T13:42:40-07:00haven't drawn him in ages, so ... yeah. one of my fav villains. :D]]>Free Falling by kobayashiurn:uuid:2d2f8c88-215c-0088-517f-eca85e4b58432011-04-13T17:24:47-07:00Chibi of Aang from Avatar falling happily through the sky!

Characters: Link & Lizalfos
Used: Pen & Paper, and Photoshop CS3
Time Taken: 20 - 30hours (I blame the lava....)
Okay so I decided I wanted to do a set of three pictures, with the color themed after Link's other tunics. Obviously, this is the red one. :P I decided I wanted to have Link fighting a lizalfos with a lava fall in the background. Big mistake there, the lava probably took more time than anything else on the picture. It's good experience though right?
I tried a few new techniques on the lizalfos' skin and I was pretty pleased with the result. I will have to remember it if I ever draw more of them. I also noticed that there are very few references for lizalfos, so I changed the design slightly. I think he actually came out looking pretty scary!]]>Sketch - Flareon by Stratadrakeurn:uuid:21145a9c-d207-d56f-1ba6-b41b511455e62011-03-08T14:23:00-08:00Random anthropomorphic Flareon suggested in part by FurAffinity user KitRuppel.

Yay another weekly challenge out on time. This one was a lot of fun for me, I found myself having a tough time pulling away from it. Shadow Link is one of my favorite bosses, too bad the poor guy is stuck in the most dreadful dungeons in the entire game. :P
I actually had the idea for this picture a few years ago but I never drew it because I was pretty uncomfortable with drawing perspective. I still am a little nervous about making it accurate, but I am better than I used to be. I also feel like you don't improve if you don't challenge yourself.
I did a lot of research on water texture and actually just ended up drawing my own. It was helpful to have them as a reference though.]]>
