http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmHere’s the kirin I painted for Serenity. It was based on the idea of the Paw kirin I painted for Kujacker. She wanted a crescent moon and blue. I’m finding the blue is giving the impression of night, with the moon and the stars on the scales. Though I’m not satisfied with the pictures: they’re making the blue come out too much in the fur. It’s really a lot more subtle than that…

http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmI like how you made the crescents a little different in size: it’s a nice touch. One could be the moon near the horizon–where it looks larger–and the other the moon high in the sky. 🙂 So was lapping the right moon slightly onto the belly scales: it looks as if you took advantage of the shape of a couple of scales at the edge of the belly? Great idea! Overall this ki-rin is a fine presentation of the theme and I bet Serenity is tickled pink by it! 🙂

Yes, yes I am tickled about it! “Tribal 2” is the trade piece for the KiRin!!! 😀

Actually, it was an accident 😀 But I was glad the line ended up there!

A convenient accident, then. 🙂 The curve of the crescents is flawless; I could never manage something that smooth. Me and symmetry don’t seem to get along very well. 😉
