	Ferrets by Jirashi

My ferret gang, as depicted by Jirashi over on Median Art Swap.

He went ahead gave Sky and Mo masks, though technically they don't wear them, but that's ok. He did a great job of giving them that super heroisc look.

Though these four are far from super heroes :)

Still, I love it. I've been lucky that everyone is willing to draw all four so far.

	Ferrets by ArtemisPanthar

I haven't done what I have been wanting to do with these guys yet, but one of these days I will.

These are my four ferret characters as depicted by Artemispanthar, she did a Don Quixote theme using all four of them.

What she says:

It's the ferret gang playing out "Don Quixote". I do need to admit, however, that I know pretty much nothing about Don Quixote and based this entirely on an episode of Quantum Leap XD (I'm a total Quantum Leap nerd).
Mo is Don Quixote, Beet is...Don's sidekick guy, Sky is that woman who's name I can't remember, and Vi is the camera ferret =D

She also gave me drawings of each of them individually.

Beethoven

Mozart

Tchkaivsky

Vivaldi

Her artistic style suits these guys very much :)

	Nighthawk by Iseepurplehair

Nighthawk, by Iseepurplehair over on Char Shuffle. She admitted that Nighthawk didn't want to be drawn, but she found a way to draw him anyway.

Everyone who has drawn him has a completely different look for him while keeping him in character (well, just make sure you draw the black and red streaked hair, tan skin and the tatoos and he remains pretty recognizeable) and I love it!

	Dazz

Dazz, who belongs to Rhari, done for the FuroticXchange. I chose to go boodwah, so there is a little breast in this one, but overall I tried to keep it tasteful. Some art through this exchange can get pretty lude.

I love Fedorahs. I know somebody who did a shoot in a Fedorah and so I went with the theme using that as my inspiration. Overall I like how it came out, though it looked a little different on the computer screen I did it on. I might have to go back and tweak with the color some more.

	WolfenAshes

WolfenAshes, for the rejectXchange. I volunteered to mod this round and sort of gave myself this character, who's bloody and all about the gore. Loved drawing this, though if I were to change anything I would have made her tail stick out a little more and have a larger trail of bloody pawprints.

I guess I'm a bit of a fan of blood. Yay blood.

	Claire Haliquoer

This is Claire, done for Aerinl for Char Shuffle. She's a sculptor with a porcupine Daemon. I like the softness of this, but there are about a billion other things wrong with it, and now that I look at it, it bugs me that it's on a slant.

Oh well, she retains my style if nothing else.

	Laken Steeljaw

This is Laken Steeljaw, who is the anthropomorphic self of her owner, done for the Median Art Swap on LJ land. She has an anthro and normal self, and when people give me an anthro character, I often times will draw both.

	Vlad and Niko

These were done for Ankewehner in the mrcaex (Monthly Random Character Art Exchange), where I am given a list of characters and am given the opportunity to pick who I draw, leaving it as a bit of a surprise for my chosen one.

Unfortunately, I overburdoned myself with exchanges in March and got in over my head, so the first one I did was of Vlad, who is an imp who is also a mechanic for an interdimensional portal. I had all sorts of ideas for this, but in the end he came out ho hum. Again overburdened myself.

This is Niko, who is a dimension jumper and since I have a few characters that do this I was drawn to her so I drew her on a creature I made up. That mount is mine, his name is Brillo, and now i think I'll be forced to write a story about him because I predict he is a sentient creature capable of abstract thought.

The first two were late, I also submitted this sketch to appease my chosen until I could get the real arts done.

	Fisher by Calzephyr

Fisher, done in EquineXchange by Calzephyr. She had done art for me before, in the guise of my horse Dodger for this same community.

She offered to send the original to me, I really need to take her up on that offer. She did a fantastic job.

	Nighthawk by Pandora Dragon

Nighthawk, done for the Art Exchange by Pandora Dragon for March 2008.

Nighthawk is in his half wolf form, where he is merged with a Shadow Wolf. This is a great depiction of him actually, probably the closest anybody has drawn him to what I have in my head, and better then my own depictions even!

His merged wolf from is probably the hardest for me to do.

	Wish You were Here by Kalumu

It's Parker, drawn by the amazingly awesome and talented Kalumu for Char Shuffle. This girl's work never ceases to amaze me, though she's self conscious about her people. I don't know whatever for, I think they look fine.

I wish I had her patience.

Parker enjoying the beach scene while he entertains two classic pin-up chicks and gets roasted by the sun. It appears he doesn't mind.

	Blaze

(click to view)
I adopted Jet's character Blaze when she got no art for February. I went nuts on the wings. The drawing started out small enough, but I had to keep expanding it go get the wings to look right. I was unhappy with it before, but I rather like how it turned out.

Blaze is usually an anthro horse that likes to surf. So I took a shot at that. I think I did a fair job. I messed up the wing however.

My coloring skills are getting better.

	Creature by Leah

It's a Creature! Drawn by Leah Freenote in the Reject Exchange.

:)

Labels: Creature, rejectXchange


	Garret

It's Garret, drawn for Killerdetergent when they recieved no art for January. I volunteered to draw her character and she asked me to draw her Spirit Animal, a Polar Bear.

I've had a few comments about making him appear depressed. Oops, his eyes are supposed to be hazel.

	Nighthawk by Akuyume

It's Spider Nighthawk, done in the Monthly Random Character Art Exchange in LJ land. The artist Akuyume (I have no website to credit other then her LJ) saw him as Spidery and tried to depict it as such, though she thinks he came off a little cheesy. Granted, I can see that particular pose as a little difficult to pull off in real life but it fits Nighthawk's character. He's quite an accomplished sneak.

	Ali

This is Ali, done for Blue Snowangel in the EquineXchange. She's an anthro, though I admit I'm a bit leary about Anthros so I vouched to do two images to make up for the shoddy job I would undoubtedly do with the anthro version of her. Actually, the Anthro came out better then the normal image did.

I have a picture of me in the pose shown above and wanted to do something with it, so I put Ali into it. It works up until her head, which I'm not very satisfied with. I toyed with redoing it, but it didn't work out so I left it.

I took an image of a draft horse for this, and it came out alright, I like the shadows but overall the anthro came out better.

Both backgrounds consist of me copping out. I swear one of these days I'll focus on the background.

	Rylia

This is Rylia, a dragon/elf hybrid done for talakestreal in Char Shuffle art exchange. She was adopted out from February, and I picked her up, though I really was never given the green light to go ahead and draw, but I had an idea and I went with it, waiting a bit in case somebody else had picked up on her as well.

I found the above pose and really liked it, picturing it with this character and decided it was the pose I wanted to use. The angle of the head is a bit different for me so it was a challenge, though I shortened that back leg a bit much due to me drawing it to the edge of the page (grr, hate when I do that). It didn't look so bad when I drew it, but now that it is on the computer and colored, it's starting to bug me, so the only way I can really see hwo to fix it is to go back in and put more shadows on the leg to give it the appearance of foreshortening I guess. Still, I like how it turned out.

This is the image I was drawing when I decided to adopt her, seeing how I could get her bloody massive wings into the image, but alas, I had trouble figuring out what to do with her body as you can kind of see the outline of her body in the sketch marks of the wings. This is a bonus, throw away image really. Nothing spectacular in the slightest.

	Kirin Argyle

Kirin Argyle belongs to Meradragon and I did this for the community Char Shuffle. I had this book with a bunch of pictures of the figure in movement and there was this one that I really liked. Since Kirin is an assassin, I kind of wanted to put him into a sneaky pose. The pose was difficult to pull off, and I'm not sure I did, but I'm glad he came out as well as he did.

The background is a massive cop out, because I can't bring myself to draw backgrounds. I think I need to go back and put more shadows into that right arm, because it doesn't show foreshortening as well as I would like it too. Overall I'm pleased with how it turned out.

	Ceril

I think the point of this picture is the pose and the method I went to create it, because it's a bit different then my previous arts. Anyway, this is Ceril, who belongs to the Orange Tabby and I did this for the ArtXchange.

I actually have a picture of myself in this pose and I really liked how it was cropped and everything. I made an attempt to tweak with the lineart coloration as well, but I don't think I will ever get away from my sketchy quality of art. Maybe I should just embrace it?

	Fransuá Lupé

This is the French Wolf, or Fransuá Lupé as his owner terms him. He belongs to vauvakolibri and he is a Wolf who goes nuts for French Food. I thought the idea behind him was rather cute, but I couldn't seem to get myself away from this overly sketchy style to draw him without directly mimicking the original artist, and the point of these exchanges is to get other people's interpretations of your characters *sighs*. Anyway, this didn't come out all that great, so I ended up doing a lot of little sketches of the little french wolf, including one where he is questioning the Frenchness of French Fries.

Eh, I guess it's alright. Nothing fantabulous by any means.

	Parker by Ulario

It's a Parker, done by the talented Ulario for the March XketchXchange. She titled this Beefcake, as she got the athletic side of Parker down very well. I really never saw him as that stocky, but that's ok, I love it when people bring their own interpretation to a character and it definitely fits him :)

He would definitely wear a baseball cap. Why hadn't I thought of that?

	Nighthawk by Gryphowizardgirl

This is a long one, so click to view it.

This was done by Gryphowizardgirl for the SketchXchange over in LJ Land. Yes, it be Nighthawk, or rather just a quick sketch of him. This was actually done for the February Exchange.

	Ali's Birthday Bash

This is a portion of the full piece (click to view) as it is rather large. This is Magic and Snow, involved in a birthday bash for Ali the unicorn. This was done as gift art for everybody involved in March's EquineXchange by Blue Snowangel, even though it was HER birthday. I actually submitted several characters that month, and she decided to do both Magic and Snow. I likes muchly :)

Ironically enough, I got Blue Snowangel for my exchange this month, so I did my own interpretation of Ali.

	Asiri

I did an image entirely in Photoshop! No trace of this image was done on paper, and this is good news for me because I usually SUCK at drawing things exclusively in Photoshop.

Anyway, this is Asari, the Hyena, done in the Reject Xchange, which is an exchange after my heart because I've been recently rejected because I can't draw anatomy apparently. But whatever, she belongs to Asiri. The pose is somewhat Boodwah (sp?), I'm a sucker for tasteful nudiy, I hate all out porn.

But I've been having issues with anthros lately, as I actually started with the sketch below. I like how it turned out, but it is extremely sketchy and didn't take all that long for me to do, so I vouched to do another with a bit more time involved. Which is the sketch above.

	Parker by The Lest

This is Parker, done by The Lest in the LJ ArtXchange community.

It was a valentine's day theme, and Parker is a Satyr so he is a sexual character and I let the artist have fun with it. They had him recieve a lot of valentines day gifts as well, including fuzzy handcuffs. Haha! This is actually rather appropriate for him actually.

	Violet and Dido by Tearsforaunicrn

One of the worksafe pics of Violet, this was done for the LapineXchange by tearsforaunicrn over on LJ.

Violet is a rabbit that is somewhat twisted, I really love Emily's style when drawing rabbits and think this came out great. Love it!

	Jake and Morton

This is Jake and Morton, Jake is an earth elemental or something like that who is essentially ageless and Morton is a hybrid dog human science experiment that has gone horribly awry. Fortunately for him, he doesn't really remember anything that led to him losing his left arm or what not. I just see him as a tortured character and I love tortured characters.

They both belong to tangledsilence and I drew this as a part of the ArtXchange

	Fisher by Boss Hoss

This is Fisher, done by BossHoss in the EquineXchange over at LJ. He's not really an anthro character but I gave the artist the option so she put him in a running outfit. My first thought when I saw it was that she made him gay, but I got a laugh out of it. Fisher does like to run. This isn't really an accurate portrayal of him seeing he isn't an anthro character but I still like it, I enjoy seeing people's various interpretations of characters I submit, when they get them right and even when they deviate from the picture in my head.

So it might not be the best reference pic for Fisher, but I still enjoys it muchly :)

	Creature and Splash by BagShotRow

Creature and Splash done through the SketchXchange by BagShotRow. I absolutely loved this, the look on Creature's face is priceless, Creature and Splash are done perfectly, he nailed their personalities down pat.

	Enzo Niviani

Done for the SketchXchange over on LJ, this is Enzo and he belongs to Edge Chan. I did him in colored pencil as opposed to Photoshop, which is evident that I don't do much in Colored Pencil, but honestly I should do more.

I don't think it is done, I'll probably update this soon with a version that is more colored as I'm not sure about it yet.

	ThunderClaws Commission

This was a commission for me to do a friend (and a reader of my comic) Thunderclaws in the form of an ardie with wolflike coloring. This is what I came up with.

I should go back and touch it up, because now it's bothering me because I can see things wrong with it. Doh!

	Dido

This is a flash animation I did for TearsforaUnicrn, this is her character Dido.

Nothing horribly snazzy, I tried something new and this is what I came up with.

	Spitter by Wolfmare

This was done in the now unfortunately defunct UngulateXchange, which is an exchange dealing with hooved beasts, by Wolfmare. I could have submitted a horse, but I submitted a character that has yet to be seen instead. I didn't give her a lot to go by, unfortunately, so she did well considering what she had.

This is an idea I've been working in my head about four ferrets and their Llama Sensei Spitter. It is a total farce on Ninja Turtles.

	Nighthawk by Lupie Stardust

His hands! Holy crap his hands are so freakin' awesome!

Well, this is Nighthawk, done for the LJ community Char Shuffle by Lupie Stardust, and this girl rocks at drawing hands!

Nighthawk is a minor character in my webcomic, but he's amassed a sizeable backstory elsewhere. He's also one of the characters I contribute to humanoid art exchanges. I'll be doing a lot more with him most likely.

Nighthawk is slightly smitten with a girl named Rose, but he's not actually much of a romantic. The poor guy is tortured in more ways then one. The artist got his personality down perfectly, becuase Nighthawk would totally do something like this.

	Splash by Ishaway

The only thing I can suggest with this piece is that it might be a bit more appropriate if it were reversed, so that the flame unicorn is in the reflection.

Anyway, this is a piece done in the EquineXchange by Ishaway of Splash in both her regular and flame form.

Splash is named for the element of Water, but she can draw from fire as well.

	Magic by DaughterofTwilight

This was done for the Equine Exchange on LJ, it's Magic, looking rather huggable if I might say so myself.

This was done by DaughterofTwilight, who I've gotten art from as SpiketheGoddess in the past.

	Splash by Shekeira

This is Splash, done for the Halloween Equine Exchange over on LJ. This was done for me by Shekeira.

Splash isn't very fond of Halloween, and she must have seen the comic where she got scared out of her wits and used it for reference. I loved it!

	Violet by Yatenstar


	This is actually a bit of a guilt trip on my part. This was a straight up trade I agreed to do with a girl. In fact, I agreed to do a few trades at this time, and several of them fell through where I drew their art but they never drew art for me. Yatenstar actually did her part, but I never contributed my art. I really need to get on that. Anyway, this is Violet, a rather violent and sadistic rabbit, depicted in probably the cutest fashion she's ever been seen in. \ Decemberish, 2005?? I can't remember, I just know that my art is long overdue.
