Artist's Comments

This piece sadly was giving me a tough fight as the paper did like neither the water colours nor the masking liquid. *sighs* It's just a little something... nothing special, but I wanted to share it anyhow since it's the first Bloodi drawing of 2009... and the year's already half over. ;__;

Back then Bloodi used to have his spiked collar and people seemed to rather like it, so I thought I let it put him back on. You know... for sentimental reasons. ;) While we moved beyond the spiked collar I do think I will resume adding slight hilights of lilac and blue to his fur... I like that.

So there you go... have some big black hunk of Bloodhound. :)


P.S: No, he's NOT picking his nose! Xp

It's nice to have Bloodi back. He's a great character, I like him! I remember the first time I saw him. The lilac and blue look good with the fur, though, it lighten him up.

Yeah, I miss my puppy, too. ;__;

The lilac and blue was something I used to do around 2001-2002, but I really like how it looks. Not to mention they're my favourite colours. ^^

I like the splattery background. Was that added digitally or is the piece like that in real life?

Your rendering of the fur and other details is very good. I'm not sure about the anatomy, though - his legs look uncomfortably placed (they appear to be all in the same plane) and his raised arm is hard to read. Was this referenced from a photo?

Thank goodness he's back. I thought he was gone for a while! At least he's back though.
And yeah, blue's my favorite colour, too! ^-^

It's entirely done in real media.

I used several pieces as guidelines, but no exact references. This was meant to be a small thing only, something to draw my own character at least once a year...

This right here, is what I love seeing from you: artwork that you have done for yourself.

The background provides a good compliment to his fur. I really like the iridescent quality you have given to his black fur.

When I am not so dependent anymore on the money I earn through commissions and cons, I promise you, there will be more! I miss taking care of my brain babies. ;__;

I love spiked collars, my zombie chimaera character has one e___e it looks real nice XDDD

anyway, very nice colouring, I really enjoy looking at the way you draw/colour fur <3 i stick to stuff without colour 99% of the time so I envy other people, lulz.
