Colored sketch gift for a Zoroark friend! His left hand took forever for me to get looking something like correct aughhh! But practice is practice.
I'm considering offering the same kind of half-body sketch for free soon, as long as what's asked for isn't too outrageously complex. Let me know if you'd be interested. Just don't expect it to be done too fast, considering the time of year, and I'd be working on it parallel to my day job and a new refsheet for my fursona.
Thanks for the advice. I get it and I agree, paw-like hands can look better in many cases, but every time I've tried to draw them rather than hands it just ends up not looking right too, or not really fitting in with the style of the piece given I lean towards more detailed and "realistic" body proportions. Well, there is one exception, a kemono style thing I nearly finished from earlier this year, the only time I've been able to make something look good in such a style!
I've done as many personal as commission things this year, but haven't been sure about posting them here, so not neglecting creating for its own sake.
I had a quick look through your posts, I'd consider it though will likely need to ask you for more details on any of your characters I draw if I get around to it. Thanks for the thoughtful comment!
