Another human/morph team. One of my favorites, Shepard based off on of my first superhero characters and his albino/blind German Shepard Seek. Copyright Shawntae Howard.

My scanner mangles markers. The colours are much better in the original. Amara and a Pseudorealistic Amara. It just isn't the same :)

Japanese Bobtail: my half of a (long overdue) trade with Starfallz. She asked for "something Japanese", and I wanted to try something different, so I went for a very stylized, graphic, almost cut-paper-like look, and took many liberties with the clothing, etc. I wanted a bit of the paper to show through, too. The cleavage wasn't done to be "sexy"; I liked the white space of her chest, but it looked too empty otherwise. Gouache and colored pencil on toned paper.

For Meg Giles! I love her prehistoric cats, and had been reading a great book with new theories on prehistoric big cat reconstruction (calling for a longer, more leonine face) so I drew Meg as such - but with her tiger colors (I still love the "classic style" smilodons too, though). *sigh* SO many people I want/need to do gift art for, still... Pencil, parchment background, color in Photoshop 7.

DemonDreamer's Kareena: a detail of the mask, which was VERY fun to paint. Gouache on black illustration board.

Kareena, property of the fantastic DemonDreamer at the VCL (see her archive there for a description of the character). She's a brown-hyena-like creature with one glass eye and one real one, and I drew her as more human than my usual (thus, longer fingers & legs, etc.). Thanks to Nat G. for her image-adjustment tips! Gouache on black illustration board, slightly smaller than 8-1/2" x 11".

Swiftred! I drew her as a more quadrupedal werewolf - still looks a bit feline, though. All details and ornamentation per description; drawn in the Fall of 2002. (Swiftred - THANK YOU! Do you want this in color?) Pencil on cardstock.

In my opinion, final fantasy character designs are SO cluttered and over the top. Not all of them of course but a lot. Well,I wanted to do something like that...I wanted to make a character with a hodge podge of make no sense accessories and no sense of culture. The feather is a weapon. Ultra paper cut of doooom! :3 He looks kinda feminie doesnt he? Ink in a friend's sketchbook.

A color prelim for a futire piece. She is about to plant the seedling into the womb of earth within the ring of stones.

"Flora and Fauna" My half of a trade with the amazing Neoecco. This is her Stargazer character, a race of fling 'phins. I tried to symbolize the connection to terra with the plants. Some of the plants are real, others are not. Prismacolors and white gel pen on Canson, color Moonstone.

"Weresquirrel" Food for werewolf and wereyote. All manner of graphite in my sketchbook.

Following Amara's example! Here's Ly in realistic and cartoony mode. Uh... with Jedi Ly looking on. At both of them. At the same time. Because she's... special.
