A large full illustration commission for Reuxlette, of her gloriously tailed character enjoying a chill clear autumn day! I took a bit more of a direct painting approach for a lot of this, relying less on layers set to multiply and overlay to get my desired colors. You can see a WIP walk-through in my tumblr here - http://eskiworks.tumblr.com/post/44645183874

Woooow this is so gorgeous~ The colors, and the amount of detail you put into everything is always so admirable!
Just beautiful, I love how you worked out the blue/autumn red contrast, so hard to get looking right and not brazen or patriotic. Stunning...
I do have to make the time to watch yoru streams more often so I can feed on your brain meats See how these techniques work. As it is I am so under prepared for any sort of color.
Absolutely gorgeous, from the colours and post of the character to the mountains and leaves in the background.
Autumn is my favorite season :3
I would absolutely love to see an HD version of this; I'm extremely interested in how you got such a smooth, painted look. The background is phenomenal
One of your best pieces. And I always loved Reuxlette's works too. I wish I could find where she's most active. I'll just have to keep looking.
Gorgeous! I love your digital painting style, and I think the mountains in this piece look spectacular.
Your backgrounds and compositions have just gotten more and more amazing, I've seen your work grow from the colored pencil days of DA (around 03' or so) to your transition into digital and you have taken to it like water. I think you've found your niche, I don't mean that as flattery as I am very biased being partial to traditional media myself ;)

I like what your digital painting has become in the more recent years.
