DO NOT USE THIS IMAGE WITHOUT MY PERMISSION!!!!!

SORRY. Due to people who like to take without asking, I made it into a low resolution with a huge ass watermark because people keep on stealing this godforsaken image.


wallpaper version ----> [link]

Tutorial can be found here ---> [link]

This picture is no way connected to the web-browser Fire Fox, its not for Fire Fox, I did not get inspired by it, and it doesn't look like anything like it. If I hear anything about the stupid web browser I will scream, and curse lots.

Meet my version of "the god of fire' Ooooo how hokey!
This is a character I have had for over...like....6 years, well, because he's from my story for one...and two...I just like foxes...an orange...and I've always had a fettish for glowy pendants...and twine...just never could draw them good until now...and yeah.
The twine and swirlys on his body were heavily influenced by old austrailian and native paintings...becasue well...I don't feel like explaining.
Anyhows!

There is a bunch of symbolism in this! Well not alot, but you get the idea at least...he's bascially "bound and bleeding for the tradition to keep the light alive." roughly yeah...

The crazy swirly glow things...move and glow like fire...
Done in Open canvas and colored in Photoshop7

I love the circular flow of this work. The tail mimics the wings and vice versa. Heh. The warm colors are very well chosen. Best of all, there's a beautiful balance of the piece by adding the pendant and the glow around it. This is the best use of the twirl effect I've ever seen. Very well done!
