Mellow winterby ~Wursu

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Animals

Running wild and free where you belong - a way to achieve peace and harmony in your soul.

This is a piece of giftart for a really good friend who's also a young and VERY talanted artist: *Khangaki. <3 *hugcuddles* I've been wanting to do something for you for ages (especually since I said I was gonna do you some giftart and send it too you with the velour paper, but then realized I didn't had time to and I didn't wanted you to wait for the papers for too long so all I did was a little watercolour doodle while I actually planned to do something bigger and better xD)

I really really loved working on this.

I wasn't aiming for loads of detail - I was trying to capture the feeling the photo I used as reference gave me, and the light and the motion and the body-structure of the tiger. Compared to some other works of mine, this doesn't have a lot of fur detail, but there's enough (it would be rather messy if I added more anyway, beeing a full-body shot and all) :3 And I am simply incredibly happy with how it turned out! It looks just excatly as I wanted it to look. I hope you like it as much as I do, Khagi! <3

I used a photoreference for this (since I can't draw a tiger by heart to save my life xD). The program used to do it was Photoshop Elements 3.0, and I used a wacom tablet. I am not sure of how long it took, around 5-8 hours maybe? wild guess xD It was also drawn MUCH bigger than this then rezised. And YES, the background is SUPPOSED to be all blurry and stuff. xD
