Toryu-Mau: … Woah, she looks ready to throw people out of cars… chill, M8. >)’:^[

Toryu-Mau: … Prepare to Cry~! Repeatedly~! D^’:(<
Also, those earflaps on the sallet helm is a nice touch, M8. >):^]

Toryu-Mau: … Welcome back~! ( Waves Overenthusiastically ) c^:(<
So... the Cooleg years have come, eh? Choose wisely, M8. >):^]
Also, [S] Katia - Pretend to Be the Parrot… . >)X^D

Toryu-Mau: … ( Insert Obligatory Fire Nation Meme ) >):^D

Toryu-Mau: … That is one CLEAN hand, M8. Even with the ultra high resolution I’m not seeing a single grain of dust. >):^D
Yup, hygiene is a virtue, y’all. And remember to use hand sanitizer after returning from public places, gotta keep the plague at bay, eh? >);^]

And … No Katia, this one is Platonic. >):^<

Toryu-Mau: … Hm… Not sure which medium this was drawn in… Would love to know the process of its creation, and some context for these characters. >):^]

Toryu-Mau: … Noice~ M8! ( Thumbs up ) >):^D

Toryu-Mau: … Is that an FN FAL She has slung as the main arm? >):^?

Toryu-Mau: … I was only gone for Two Days, and the junior members are already posting LUDE material.
Can’t take my eyes off this place for any length of time without supervision, I tell ya. >),:^/
And everyone needs to remember that characters are practically children an author gives birth to through literary labour, and seeing them portrayed in explicit manners without first being consulted on the matter and receiving consent from the author who has sired the character in question to do so is… Downright Heartbreaking. >):’^c

Toryu-Mau: … Woah, Katia… you look… more Daedric then last time, M8! D^:(<
Or is this your Atronach side being a bit too literal? >):^?

Toryu-Mau: … Yup, immediately recognizable as Nick. Sure looks cute in this style. c^:(<
The eye color seems to be have been lost to stylistic transition though. Pity, that. >):^<

Toryu-Mau: ( Becomes visibly nervous and fidgety )
… Uh… hehe, so… what are your thoughts on the Wild Hunt, fellows?

Toryu-Mau: … Ah, I see this one recognizes the importance of fur patterns in making Khajiit characters recognizably distinct. >):^D
And… Blue eyes…? Is he… you know… Hybrid? >);^]

Toryu-Mau: … Remember the 250,000 brave souls who perished to secure freedom for their youth.
Never forget, and Press F to Respect. ( Salutes ) >):’^]

Toryu-Mau: … I’m back from Forest Retreat, M8s~! ( Barrels through the door, braids tangled up with leaves and twigs ) >):^]
How’s everyone doing~♫ ( Does the Jazz hands ) c^:(<
I see there hasn’t been any fire hazards while I was gone? Excellent~ >):^]
Me? I watched a 1930’s movie called “Hell’s Angels” on a projector there, and remembered DG wanted a drawing of Pilot Katia, so here it is M8~! >);^D

Toryu-Mau: … A Booru M8 told me he was thinking about leaving because the harsh vibes at the Booru lately was crippling his spirit, and I could see it was ruining his well being… . >):^c

… Thinking as hard as I did, I could not come up with a better solution for him then to step away and let time heal things, so I told him to go back IRL to be with family. >):^[

I’ll be on hiatus for a while too, but don’t worry, I just need some time to think… and my presence would just make it hard for him to leave.

… I’ll be back by the time everyone misses me, ok? c^:(<
I know this place tends to spiral into Negaverse when I’m not around to radiate some wholesome aura and spread cheerful fun loving antics. >);^]

Toryu-Mau: @Jadezzar: ... Cheers, for future brilliance, M8. >):^]

Toryu-Mau: ... There's Aways that one person who cries at open mic night... . >):^c
( Pats back to console. <> )

Toryu-Mau: ... So... It's a Fanart, of a Fanfic, of a fancomic, of a Videogame Adaptation, of a Tabletop Role Playing Game, drawn in the signature style of a studio that is located across the Pacific Ocean, and referencing said fancomic and the studio's most recent project... .
META. >)B^]

Toryu-Mau: ... If you qualified for MSS at Air Force, that must mean you have a very steady hand and sharp eyes for detail, which are excellent quality for an artist. c^:(< ( I may be slightly jelly since I was born without either of those qualities, though. >):^< )
... I'll bet the food at MEPS mess hall was the blandest thing ya ever had~ >):^P Better get used to eating low sodium mass building diet M8, because that's all ye get at bases. Airmen needs to be trim to fit those metal wings, after all. >);^]
Keep in mind, "Aim High", and if you ever find yourself behind the trigger, remember why you were allowed to do so. To Protect, and Serve. >):^D

Toryu-Mau: @DOOMGUY11: ... The only aspect of war I can appreciate is the accelerated technological advancement. >):^|
People tend to get smarter faster when they don't have a guarantee they'll wake up alive the next day... . >):^/
I mean... Cell phone, personal computers, shelf stable preserved foods... these were all originally classified military technology before mass industrialization happened and made them cheap to make.
... So as much as I disdain the concept of War, Some good does comes out of it.
Still, doesn't come even close to making up for all the suffering it brings about, though. >):^c

Toryu-Mau: @LastNightTrain: ... A new contender enters the fray~!
Let's see you SHINE~! >):^D

Toryu-Mau: … Only a select few will understand the reference, and even fewer will understand all of the references.
But to those of you who do, this one will not be held responsible for the subsequent liquefaction of corporeal form from FEELS ATTACK! (Winks at Sashimi and bluedraggy ) >);^]

Toryu-Mau: @DOOMGUY11: ... Ey~! These positive vibes are contagious, eh? >);^]
Spread it like a plague, M8~! C^:(<

Toryu-Mau: ... Competitive E-Sports scene has too much pressure involved for me to step into, M8. >):^c
As you can probably tell by now, this one is pacifist at the core, and prefer the slower paced meticulous strategies involved with long term siege warfare. And Traps. All of the Traps. Mazes filled to the ceilings with Traps is !FUN! ... Well, they had the choice to just walk away, but came in anyway despite the warning sign, so... Oh, well. ( Giggles nonchalantly ) >):^}

Toryu-Mau: @Jadezzar: ... Another round of bugger pointing, M8? Here I go~ >):^D
... the waist section between torso and pelvis is too short, and the forearm needs to be extended and straightened out, so try moving the elbows back further to make room for it. >):^o
The hands would look more natural if the current location of the fingertips were replaced with knuckles, and extend the fingers out from that point. >):^/
And the bases of the ear could be moved closer the the center of the head sphere and overlapped inside the outline of the head to give it more three dimensional pop. >):^]
Adding a slight fold to the top of the ear and a tuft of hair at the center of the ear's base that connects to the head will also help define three dimensional planes.c^:(<
Move the eyes forward to touch the front of the face, since Khajiit are predatory creatures, and thus has their eyes set close together at the front of their face for better motion tracking. >)B^]
And lastly, the snouts could be squashed a bit shorter, felines tend to have much shorter snouts then canines do. >):^<

... Yup, that should do for today. Now, Go~ ART Moar~! >):^D

Toryu-Mau: @DOOMGUY11: Oi, Two timing is illegal in this city~ Stahp Right There, Criminal Scum~! ( Proceeds to run around the entire outer perimeter of town trying to katch innocent by-standing Khajiits ) D^:(<

Toryu-Mau: @CandyDragon: ( Throws down a rope for CD to climb up )
... Ya alright down there, M8? The excavator was too heavy to hoist down! >):^c
Been down there a few days now, I hear? >):^?

Toryu-Mau: ... As am I, it simply takes a while to climb over the hills that are these chapter borders. ( Sweats profusely, propped against a walking stick ) >)':^]

Toryu-Mau: ... THIS ONE DOES NOT COMPREHEND. EXTRAPOLATE~! D^:<(

Toryu-Mau: ... Alright! Who put these thumbtacks on the chair?! GRAhlgh~!!! D^:(<

Toryu-Mau: @DOOMGUY11: ... As would I, M8. And wear it proudly too. c^:(<

Toryu-Mau: ... Woah, that's... A lot of aliasing on the perimeters. >):^o
Is it a stylistic choice, or was the painting scaled up from being super tiny? >):^?

Toryu-Mau: @bluedraggy: ... One of the boons of being a traditionalist~ Metallic Markers~ ♪
Digital medium just don't have the same tactile feel to it, and turns out too sharp and clean for me to feel comfortable with. >):^/
I Need my daily dose of ART ASMR from holding actual physical paintings in my hands, eh?
It's like... Zen, except this is actually productive and results in something that can be shared with others. c^:(<

Toryu-Mau: @Jadezzar: ... Don't be afraid to "Break a few eggs" M8.
A lot of times it is more productive to discontinue a piece that is derailing away from the original vision and start a brand new one. >):^]

Toryu-Mau: @DOOMGUY11: ... I sent ya a short tutorial on the subject, M8. It's pretty simple. >):^]

Toryu-Mau: @AMKitsune: ... Oh yeah... there's that, but I like to be the helpful helper and preset it so Booru M8's don't have to wrestle with the UI. c^:(<

Toryu-Mau: ... Katia the Wanderable and Quill Dodger~! >):^D
Beware, ne'er do wells~ Justice cometh swiftly as the Nightingale~! D^:(<

Toryu-Mau: ... Tribute to one of the best cartoon to grace us this decade, and to the artist I respect a great deal. Cheers, mr. McCracken. ( Raises tea cup respectfully ) >):^]

Toryu-Mau: @LuminosityXVII: ... But... Lucky number~ ( Pouts ) >):^<

Toryu-Mau: @LuminosityXVII: ... The prismatic creatures hold power~! There's a reason some cultures venerate them as Deities, M8. >):^D
Or they are just pretty, either of those two reasons are good enough to fan chase after. c^:(<

Toryu-Mau: @DOOMGUY11: ... ( Runs around in circles, even more confused ) ~ >):^? ~

Toryu-Mau: ... The Power~ is in your hands~! ( Raises pencil like the Excalibur ) >):^D

PS: ... Try resizing the picture's height to under 777 pixels, so the picture can be seen in one screen, eh? it's kind of troublesome to scroll around on a huge picture, M8.
MS Paint can do resizes just fine, so no need to get a Photoshop just for this one thing either. >):^]

Toryu-Mau: @Jadezzar: ... Here's your dose of art vaccine from me~ ( Wields a syringe menacingly ) >);^D
The fingers have been traced thinner then they should be, and the joint locations on the arm is off, due to straying too far from the original sketch. >):^/
And keep in mind that tails have skeletal structure inside that cannot bend at a sharp angle... Poor Jadezzar possibly got bone fracture from zigzagging his tail in this manner. >):^c Try evening out the angles by altering Katia's tail to match the curls, eh?
That's about it from me, M8. Hope it helps. c^:(<
I'm a traditionalist, so digital art is outside of my sphere of influence... Perhaps bluedraggy could point the way to digital coloring? But not about line art, BD specializes in coloring specifically.
Maybe Radian or Roninsmall could give some pointers on line art, but they are super busy so I wouldn't bug 'em, M8.

Toryu-Mau: ... It always confuses me whether a Quad is a bike or a car? Or is it a cart? but Cart is a car, isn't it? Or is it something else entirely? So confused~ sand halp~! >)X^?

Toryu-Mau: ... And so at long last, Peace was had at the Booru... and on that day the wholesome aura was so powerful that it burned the iris of one TM... ( Gives a thumbs up, and slides off the chair and under the desk to rest ) >)B'^]

Toryu-Mau: @bluedraggy: ... Yes, YES! My nefarious and entirely selfish schemes to make everyone smile is starting to take effect~ ♪ ( Laughs maniacally )

Toryu-Mau: … Be the functional one and stop fires before it begins, M8s! ( Strikes a PSA pose, pointing at the audience. ) >):^D

Shout out to Lumin for inspiring this little venture~ c^:(<

Toryu-Mau: ... Sometimes, the booru leaves me with more questions then answers.
This is one of those times. >):^/

Toryu-Mau: @LuminosityXVII: ... Scourge Sisters, Eh? That's one way this could turn out if the stars align. >):^]
