When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
Artist's Comments
An otter girl, a quick sketch on 9x12 bristol for the Anthrocon 2006 art show.
I actually had fun doing this one, it wasn't meant to be perfect or flawless but just fun and a little break from building stress..and it certainly achieved that. Yes I am putting a lot of my pencil work in my scraps..not because I view them as scraps but because sometimes the work I secretly love I like to hide away where less scrutinizing eyes are likely to see. I am not perfect and sometimes all the criticism I get on some pieces actually gets me quite down..seems silly but sometimes I still feel quite small in the big ocean of deviant.. Plus I actually value the comments and faves I receive on my scraps more than on my deviations..its simple..you actually took the time to look at all the art I do..and I am humbled and honored by that. Thank you to you all! tools: mechanical pencil on bristol time  3 hours maybe? Comments
 Yay otter!
 She looks wonderful... nice fur texture and anatomy an' stuff. I was just going to say... if THIS is in Scraps, I should give my skills a major overhaul!  Excellent work, and mechanical pencils rule.-- "I look at animation as a gift from God. We're helping the public see the beauty of God's creation." - Glen Keane  Very pretty. I adore the pose, and her expression. The yin-yang with paw prints was really clever, too! But I think the prints should be in the repective places of the circles in the symbol itself. The hair in this looks a little stringy as well, so i'm going to assume that's how you wanted it in the Fifth Element picture. Her face looks a little off, though, the {her} right lip looks a bit bigger than the left, but it good also just be my perception.
I think my favorite part would have to be the wee crown on her head, and the wall. Your work always looks like it must have taken a lot of patience.  -- N E W ★ A C C O U N T  Very beautiful
 This is so beautiful! I love the background, the ying and yang with paws is awesome! And also I like how you made the fur and that bracelet thingy on its hand
 --     ~*~~**m.c.flem**~~*~ I make tattoos, tribals mainly, if you like that kind of art, visit my gallery, thank you!  the yin/yang idea is beautiful, and the otter is so cute xD nice sketch
-- No, miss... I'm not a good man... but not even one of the worst.  3 hours !? omg awesome *___*"""
WHY in scraps!? XD I want your abilites XD -- Call me Hound plz :3  Amazing, i love otters and the you've really captured this one! Also the background is lush! x *fave*
-- ********Ceiling cat is watching you!******** Avatar by giorgos93 [link]  It's extemely well doner but you put down advanced criticism so you must obviously want some. All in all it's a good work but the effect of light is too well done, I would fill in the light space with a little more then those little spirels and also I am not too sure about those little curls on the bottom of the otter's ponytail. But I'm no art expert, this is just my opinion, it's still a great piece of artwork. The fur texture is great.
-- *~*My best friend is the voice in my head*~*  I would LOVE to see how this turns out colored
-- My name's kent, and I approve this message.  just beautiful, u should b so proud
 -- This is your official inivation to dance. |
