decided to make a second thread because the old one is… tatzelwurm-long. And the artworks here are not ebay pieces but more artshow/show pieces. I will also plan to print these, either single or portfoliowise..
Feedback is very appreciated as I have been sitting with my nose an inch away from the paper, I am as good as blind and commentless on these now. I am yet trying to find the right way to express myself in artwork. Furry, the main subject in some of them (due to artshows) is not what will be my forever focus, but aquarell … I start to like the stuff, its become obediant to me finally 🙂
these for today are done on A4-A3, watercolors.

I hope to have a wolf and a dragon done by tomorrow.
They are all for an artshow this may, thanks to previous experience I started early (I know my snail butt), yet twice as many to come still :/

if you wonder why these look all to the right, I ws miffed at myself for drawing onesided, heads to the left, as it is easyer for a right-hander. Now I am onesided the other way round. cool, eh?

😯 Wow! Those are great! I especially like the first two! I don’t suppose they would be for sale (I need that gryphon!)?

[wolflodge100]

They are all nice but my favorite is the fox.

[Maria]

Your style is unmistakable, Aky. Love them all, but I like the fox best too, I think.

[Elena]

Gorgeous Akeyla!

The fox is my fave (go figure) 😛 *Must have…..

[lamortefille]

The fox is great, but I love the ibex/antelope(?) with the human eye – like it’s a shape shifter.

[gryphondreamer]

i love the gryphon too. but they are all delightful to look at. you are very talented with watercolors.

first of all, thanks for the replies 🙂 am a tad to busy these days, no real time for art even if its ticktock.

Before I go to replies, here the current WIP.
He is not in the right pose but I left him like that because it makes him look cute-naughty, or as said in German, schelmisch. Still more work to do on the scales. The yellow “frame” is tape bway

@Saydee: I need the gryphon for an artshow (MMC/Mephit Mini Con in early May), I will set him for 25 Euros (about 33$) starting bid, framed in glass. If you are interested please drop me a mail/PM, I can see what I can do, perhaps reserve it 🙂
I plan to make prints of all, though I first have to find a good scanner and printer. WHat you see on screen isnt half IRL. Its a certain natural glow of Caran DAche that gives them their true beauty, and most of that is lost in the scan.

@lamortefille: thanks 🙂 actually , its a furry creature for a furry artshow. It has no real animal its fully based on, its just a mixed love for equids and horns 😉 Furry stands as for humanized animals, she would look similar full body view to this lady:

I love the 3rd pic!!! Fox is second, though. 😀

[Maria]

That dragon watercolor sure is nice, Aky. 😀

[Mobius]

Those are gorgeous. 😀 Lovely work.

[Akeyla]

thanks all!
here’s how far I got this weekend(and last)

pictures of them framed. Since I did not scan them I will sell them at MMC with the rights (the new ones).
we’ve had minor problems this weekend because a canalisation pipe nuked and our holidayhouse was flooded in poop (4 inches high). For months, meaning the chairscarpetstableswalls were coated in mold.
And I was the one to discover it last friday 11pm with my honey. Overwhelming sight.

[Maria]
