Artist's Comments

Commission for the lovely :iconinuyashaluva:; 'tis Duke, her Arcanine character. ^w^

If you're wondering, I based the ring of fire thingy after fire twirlers which really makes no sense if you think about it, because Duke can't possibly be twirling fire without any thumbs or strings. I chalk it up to Arkanine awesomeness. 8D

Much thanks to :icontoushin: for helping me with the background (you know you did, Tou, don't deny it!)! <3

Gwaahh, well you already know I love this but..I'm gonna tell you again. XD

I LOVEEEE how you color. I really like the paintery/lineless look, you pull it off so well. Especially on the collar. And I just..adore your shading. Its rather different, which is why I think it appeals to me so much. X3

The firering is just..so awesome. It goes so well with him and I just love the idea. 8> And again, I love how you colored it. It has a nice flare to it that really makes it look firey ya~ XD And I love that BG as well.

Thank you again! I just adore this ever so much! X3 -makes desktop- :love: :glomp: :heart: :+fav:

:hug: :heart:

Actually, this was pretty much a trial run for me. The lineless.... whoaman. It was, simultaneously, harder and easier than I expected it to be. o____o The last time I tried lineless, I ruined the picture so completely I never posted it up anywhere. D8

:heart: I'm glad you like it! ^w^
