bluedraggy: Ended up going with the shiny version, and copped out on the water and just put in a photo. But I likey! And if she has certain bazooka-like attributes, I can at least say I stayed with the original linework. Amazing what shading can do.
bluedraggy: Just FYI - I'm working on a colored version. I feel pretty confident Rick2Tails will be fine with it. I'm floating two versions of it out there right now to see if I should go with my patented Sweaty Quill Weave with the bazooka boobs or stick with the every-so-slightly more modest non-sweaty version. (okay - not sweat. Shiny scales then. Same end result!)
bluedraggy: I dunno, did I overdo the highlighting on Hussy Quill-Weave? Should I have gone with a grey dress? Would that have been funnier?
But I also realized a couple other things. Weedum-Ja IS a Pilgrim. And in addition to the scandalous headfin rings, she's a cross-dresser too. Methinks ye might best look to yon-self good pilgrim!
bluedraggy: If you fill a glass with nitroglycerin it will stop cats from doing this. Through natural selection though, not any individual cat. Of course, the same would probably be true for people filling glasses with nitroglycerin. On second thought, natural selection is probably not the best way to go.
bluedraggy: I dunno - the fin-adornment rings on Mrs. Puritan Lizard seem awfully risque to me. Fortunately with her eye configuration she probably can't see them herself. I think I see another color job in my future though. Good, sensible, non-offensive colors of course.
There is just no way that the amount of time I spent on this doesn't indicate a serious problem. Have a colored sweaty Quill-Weave sunning herself on a rock. Kaz drew for Johnny Cheesedog and I wanted to do it up right. This one's for you JC!
And Cider did a "where did the summer go?" bikini pic recently so this fits in with that too.
bluedraggy: I know - the background really sucks. That's why I don't do draws. But I like the rest pretty well. There may have been the LITTLEST sense of urgency with finishing though because the next one in the series is my absolute favorite Rajirra ever - but I'll leave it to Sashimi to post the drawing for that one.
bluedraggy: Oh! Sashimi, the colored version is awaiting your approval in a Private Message. If it looks good, post away! I see some little nitpicky issues with it but I don't think anyone would really notice them. I was thinking of saying "tail where?" but really it's not at all a problem as it's very likely out of the scene anyway.
bluedraggy: Do you have any idea what it's like to be write fanfiction and then have the author of the original read your fanfiction? I was in heaven last night! And just after I'd complained about his Morrowind streams too. I felt like a bastard, but a happy bastard! Thanks Kaz!!!
bluedraggy: One of the stories from last night wasn't here so I'm putting it here. I scanned for typos, did some slight editing. This is part 1 of a 2 parter. I've got one that's 14 parts and of course I wasn't going to upload them all, but with only 2 I guess I'll do that here. After I correct, insert BBCode, etc.
bluedraggy: Honestly, not really. Mostly it's just imagining what a typical day for QW must be like, post-Katia. Oh, and because illustrations are always better: https://bdfanfic.tumblr.com/post/166054009518/a-day-in-the-life-of-an-argonian-writer (plus I actually did spell check on it!)
bluedraggy: Very evocative. What, no sunglasses at night Chat Noir? It's weird, that Dodger fic of mine was sort of Noir based in Oblivion setting. I named a character after Veronica Lake actress from The Blue Dahlia. Seems connecting Prequel to Noir isn't such a unique idea after all. Keep em coming!
bluedraggy: AMKitsune or any other mod around, would you be able to overwrite this submission with this: http://d.facdn.net/art/bluedraggy/1506989351/1506989351.bluedraggy_commission_-_sashimi_01_-_webfinalfinalfinal.png please please pretty please? I stupidly painted over the signature and DrawPanther's been so nice about it I really HAVE to get that fixed!
bluedraggy: Wow! I got a comment from the artist himself! Unfortunately I inadvertently colored over his signature. NOT kosher. I'll fix that and ask AMKitsune if he can update it when done. DrawPanther is sooo cool though. I should rename myself Majestic Buckets. And I can confirm more is forthcoming. Damn Sashimi, you're building up so much anticipation for your fanfiction it's gonna be #1 on the bestseller list!
bluedraggy: Yup, you're right Raydio. I revisited it, improved both the water and the sky, doing exactly what you suggested. No need to update the entry here, but for Sashimi at least, here's a "final-final" version. Probably. https://media.tumblr.com/c711826995327f31eb43299fe1078862/tumblr_inline_ox5aam6cMT1sn6wro_raw.png
bluedraggy: I don't think I'm at Radian's level yet - but as long as I feel I'm getting better with every one of these, I'll keep plugging away. Of course, I see all the things I could have improved. But I'm also proud of it. I knew after 4 nights of working on it, I was going to get burnt out so I called it done last night. Honestly, I can't wait for the next one Sashimi! (water sucks, sky is practically a 10 year old's version. But I did like the dappling of the sun through the trees. Eyes of course. I dunno why but I simply like the way I do em. There's a certain furry porn artist that is immediately recognizable by his eye style. I wouldn't call mine "patented" because they're so simple, but I like em. And the bucket. That's primo bucket coloring right there.
bluedraggy: True story: when I graduated high school, I won the Math and Science awards. (small school tho, not bragging.) My art teacher told me I would have won that too, but they gave it to someone else since I already won those others. Still pisses me off to this day. A featured masterpiece is just that, regardless of how much Radian looks like Meryl Streep. :)
bluedraggy: I finished this yesterday and wanted to highlight it, but it's a pretty long-form fanfiction so I thought I'd just put up the first 'chapter' and link the rest at the bottom of it. Seems like the way to go for long ones like this. I'm relatively proud of it, even if I did use every cliche in the book and Dodger's personality isn't exactly canon. I also stole a LOT of Kaz-art for illustrations on the tumblr page. But hey, it's SFW! That's like, a first for me!
bluedraggy: Honestly, it's rare that I read one of these from start to finish, but this one I did and was quite glad of it! Might be our QW+KM fantasy, but the style is just right. Even typos I only spotted one of (But things have seem brighter). Good work SuperMighthena! It will help keep the warm and fuzzies while Katia gets into another terrible situation in Kaz' sadistic canon.
bluedraggy: Thanks, and no problem Raydio. It's better than I could ever do (and frankly better than some commissions I've gotten) so yeah, I'm happy with it! Fortunately she only has to reach for Kaz talent, not Makkon. :)
bluedraggy: More from Anscer. A couple weird Katias and a Your_Weird_OC character named Kitty from my Dodger fanfic. She's about 17, Anscer came up with the ringlet hair, and her headcanon is she's "not gifted in the chest department". Not sure if posting Weird OCs alone is verboten here, but there's a couple Katias so it oughta slide too. She's doing a full-scale 'commission' with her for me, and Dodger's in it, so when it's done that should fly too.

I feel like there's something not good about this - but sometimes you just gotta walk away and say, "Yeah, I know. Not my best work."
Radian's gonna rake me over the coals for this one. :) It's not THAT bad, but I do feel like I did something wrong.
