- Did this un for Peter LaVerdiere. A cool fellow oo that I should have drawn a long time ago. I did it in the mighty Bic Medium tip ball point and colored it with colored pencils. He likes the boots, which strangely enough, we have near identical pairs... Peteroo is © Peter LaVerdiere.
- Well, I decided to try another version of that weird and funky black-and-white skunk pic that everyone liked so much (bwskunk.gif), but this time use all my new art toys. Yay! The background is even MORE annoying than before!
- I remember being in the school band, such a gratification to go to a home game and honestly say that "I'm with the band". Downsides is having to wake up really early for marching practice, if not then it's for symphonic rehearsals. The pic shown is one of those times. :P
- Ooooh, my first real attempt at using color pencils! I like the results given it's a first time try! :)
- Nightdancer, a black and silver vixen runs like heck from a big and toothy, fuzzy thing I'm tired of cliched 'dragon chases adventurer' pictures. Just to let you know, she got out safe and sound, tho to this day, she won't enter a broom closet at gunpoint..
- This is a lame attempt at a spin off. I love Dobbs Lupo, but this turned into more of a Peanuts strip than I could stand.
- This incomplete comic was self edited from the run by myself due to less than enough issues to show it in. People actually tell me this happens (without the crashing bit, though). My art draws closer to reality every day...
- This was drawn months after the last one was published. It was just my effort to revisit the characters and not lose touch with them. Sadly, this was my last attempt at making any continuations on the storyline. Who knows when/if i will ever get back to it.
- This is the final endcap to the Roatrip series. It was the end of the semester and one of the last semesters I spent in college. I was feeling really nostalgic so i did this little number. Alas, it went unpublished, bumped by stupid comics drawn by stupid people.
- Everyone say Muppet Babies! Ok, that done, I'd like to mention some people think they are cute. It's probably those big wet eyes... :)
- Marilamb Munroe. I have no shame. I've also got a colored version of her in a red dress - after all, the movie is "Woman in a Red Dress" - but she really looks better in green.
- Just a fem wolf celebrating the arrival of spring with a dance, clad in naught but flowers. Cute, ain't she? A very successful mixed media - ink pen with pencil fur lines.
- A portrait of a plushie... Todd is actually a Beanie Baby fox, whom the company saw fit to name "Sly." I disagreed and gave him a new name. The Fox and the Hound, anyone? This was done before I gave him his hoop earring.
- A study of one of my many characters. Lessee, she's a kangaroo, and, uh, she's terrified/horrified/surprised... And her name is Violet.
- The pretty Elyssa kitty biting Growltiger's Tail. YEowCH!!! Elyssa is © her player. Growltiger is © David Pickett
- A pic of Trotfox. Just... trottin along :) trotfox is © his player.
- Wabbit. Wabbit. hoppy hoppy.
- Yours truly, in a handsome, professional window-like pose :) hawwww hawwwwww :D Dandy is © Marco Morales
- WATCH OUT! :D I must've been cranky that day. Dandy is © Marco Morales
- Joining the marching band bandwagon. Something tells me the sousaphone is not quite right for me. (Note: NOT based on personal experience.)
- This is a picture of Trisa, she was stood up again from a date. Drawn with Pen and Ink. Long live B&W. My first scan using a new scanner. :) Trisa © Colleen aka Me!
- This is one of my fav furry characters that I created this year. He has a human form also. He's part vampire part red fox morph...don't ask :)
- *chuckle* Never was in marching band, fellow furs.. but was in the high school orchestra. Piano (and keyboards in general) have been my favorite for years, and though I didn't get to play much in HS, (got roped into cello) my time in Jazz Band in Jr. College was *heaven*! Nowadays all I have time to do is tinker with funky old jazz riffs on my synthesizer. :) But I still have fun!
- Abe 'Screw Up' Groter made an E-mail request to me about hand-coloring pictures, and how I do it. So here's an outline of the steps I take in coloring art by hand, using my B&W drawing of SilvaVixen ( who's © Emily Stoll) as an example. Hope this info helps you, Abe! :)
- This one I did in a special way, for two very special furs! Here's Trixi, Tet, and little Allie, in true loving family fur fashion! A special request made by Trixi herself.. hope you like it! :) Tet © Ryan Dewalt, Trixi © Candy Lewin, and Allie... well, I guess he's © Trixi and Tet, eh? :) This one was *fun* to do!!
- Another pic of that Nimh mousette. Her name is Julia Mousimo. I like the way this one turned out MUCH BETTER!
