Artist's Comments
4/5
Gift for  Description: I only have one more to upload after this, and I'll be getting that up tomorrow. So sorry for all the activity lately. After that piece I'll be slumping back into inactivity, artwise, again. So here's ~Sakura-Phoenix's Sojiro. I guess Kaytal was supposed to be with her, but, well, I ...didn't really want to draw Kaytal for some reason. Just Sojiro. First off, Sojiro has a beautiful name. Raxxie took an instant liking to that and this character, despite it apparently being based off of pokemon. (Umbreon, Espeon, I believe.) So, this is what I tried to do. You tell me how close I got it. I wanted to make Sojiro look a little masculine, but still have enough resemblance to a female to somewhat look like one. (She is female, by the way.) I wanted to make her like a feline, but not overly so. Look good to you...? Unlike my last piece, I am very pleased with this piece. And I personally think the paws are what look best, face aside. Which reminds me. I didn't know what her pawcolor was (again), so I improvised. White looks good against those colors, no? The light source is coming from the left. Don't ask me why or how, I don't really know. Raxxie merely felt like shading this one however she felt like it. And for those of you who are curious, I made a few quick tutorials (what I call quickie-tuts) on two of the things you guys seem to like best from me. Paw Quickie-Tut Pixel Fur Quickie-Tut See? So now you know my secrets. Not too terribly hard, huh? Reference I can't wait 'til tomorrow so I can tell you all why I'm gifting you.   I think it's a good reason, at least... I don't know. Let's see if you guys think so too when I tell ya.Copyright Information: The character, names (Sojiro, Kaytal), design, ideas, and all other related content is respectively copyright © ~Sakura-Phoenix.

Sojiro? I love that name so much O w O'' and it is hard for me to like names...for example: I dont really like all the names I gave to my chars...just some. That is why I take so long to name a char x D
Oh I though so it was basead on Burak, Umbreon. Because of colors and markings, but your friend added some different features like the double tail. And being in your style it looks less the pokemon Burak, since your style is more realistic ^ ^ prettyyyy♥
You didnt like your last picture? wow, I wonder why...I loved that one the most so far!o . O And yeah, white looks good for her pawcolor. If you made that yellow we would confuse with the claws. And black would hide that detail. Cant think of another color that would suit. Maybe a light light yellow, but I think white is just great ^ ^
And hahaha I already saw the tutorials, good ones. Now we know how you are able to make such awesome effect of fur...and those amazing paws * - * but still, I think nobody can copy the style you have. Because when you draw you put a bit of yourself in it♥ the artist's soul!heheh

I adore the way you do the for and paws, and the anatomy is perfect! The arch in the neck does add a bit of a feline note. You did a really great job with this!
XD It's fine that you didn't add Kaytal--He's a bit of a grump anyway and would have ruined the picture with his sour temper
Thank you again so much and I'm glad you're happy with it! I do applaud the work on those paws and how nicely those colors work together

What's a burak? -pokemon ignorant-
The double-tail comes from the espeon, I believe.
Aww, you think my style is realistic! Whoot! What a compliment indeed! That's actually the "style" I'm trying to go for. Whoot whoot whoot!
Hmmm... I don't think I liked my last picture because I'm not really a wolf/dog person at all. I'm a cat person. A major cat person, and so I love to draw them better. Dogs scare me. I mean, they really scare me. -runs away- D:
Exactly! Gee, Naha. You have a way of trespassing into my brain. xD;
You have a point...
By the way, I'm going to seriously comment on your deviations. Checking all my messages is the next project after I get this one done. >:] Thank you for alllll the lovely comments. You truly are one awesome person, you know? xDD

xD! Aww, what mean words for little Kaytal. XDD -pokes him-
Actually, I picked up on her "sleekness." That's the reason why her black fur is shaded with blues instead of grays. Blue, for some odd reason, when paired with black, makes a slimmer feel... or at least in my opinion. If you've noticed she's not quite as fluffy as some of the other things I've done. :3 -coughThawcoughcough-

I would love to see more of your art! I didnt know you had a photobucket account ^ ^
Oh Burak is the japanese name for Umbreon x D when I played gold and silver, my pokemons had the japanese names...so I know a few.
ahh I get it! maybe I liked that because Im of the wolf person kind x D I have 3 dogs here too....by what you say you might have cats there heheh. I wonder why they scareyou....did one ever hurt you? some can be scary > . o
Dont worry about that! ^ ^ take your time, never is late for me...and you always make wonderfull coments to me! some I still need to reply hehehe x D Im happy you liked my comments! I tried my best to write them more elaborated, Im practicing heheh
