Artist's Comments

Ref used from the amazing gallery of ~alannahILY
Here's the original: [link] and check out the rest of her gallery. :)

Yeahhh... Well, lets just say that my printer prints all pics much more darker than what they really are, so the ref was too dark. And as I was painting the bg, I got fed up with it and just went crazy. I actually laughed when I just a moment ago saw what the original bg looked like, 'cause I had gotten used to the darker version, so I didn't remember what the original looked like.. :P

Btw my scanner didn't mess this one up as badly as some of the other ones in my gallery. :>

Water colors, white gel pen.

Critiques

First of all I thought it was a photo in the thumbview... then I thought you added an aquarell effect in Photoshop in fullview... and then I was so stunned that you painted this by hand! :O
I'm really impressed how detailed the wood and the fur of the tiger appears while you did it with watercolors!
Only the nature background and especially the grid seem a bit flat to me.
The shadow of the paw could have been better when you smoothed it out more (I know this must have been very difficult but you'll do it better next time! :D)

Overall I'm really impressed and with more practice you'll make more stunning pieces with watercolor! Keep up the excellent work!

Ah,
I really like it :D
I like how you've done the background darker anyway, it makes the tiger stand out nicely :) You've made her look nice and fluffy like she was too:D
Well done! :D :thumbsup:

thanks :D well yeah, I guess it does give some contrast..
I really tried to make the fur fluffy, 'cause usually when I paint or draw fur, it's just not fluffy enough. :P
thanks again :)
