I've been having these dreams at night of thick, dark forests and full mooned skies. The chirping of crickets, or perhaps crisp snow against paw pads. The thrill of the hunt, the thrill of the run, breath like steam and hot and cold all at once. The iron taste of blood and the elation of a nocturnal soul, as well as the pursuit of camaraderie delving far beyond societal superficialities, straight into wild hearts.

Shasalis has the same dreams at night.

Allow me to clarify, since it seems to have become necessary of late: Shasalis is not an avatar of myself. He's an entity unto his own and our differences are innumerable. At the very heart of things, however, I fancy our souls are akin, and so it is that he so easily aids me in expressive artwork. He is Shasalis, and I am me, and we listen to the same tune.

That is freaking-fantastic work! You always seem to outdo yourself everytime. Great job on this piece. The lighting effects are great too.

Gom Jabbar Says:

This gets my walrus of approval.
Nice work with the background there and the blood. One with the way the clouds are illuminated and the second with how the blood seems well... blood like.
B.t.w.: you do realise that the side he is exposing in this picture should be mostly shadowed by the moon?
This would be of course boring but I'm wondering if you just took the artistic liberty of rendering it this way or did you miss this. :3

Tau22 Says:

WOW! That is great, creepy and even a bit scary.
Faved!

Nicely done.

The only things that seem to stand out as having the possibility of improvement are the "wing muscles" and the clouds - to the left and right of the moon, the lighting appears inconsistent, and the wings appear a little lumpy... it seems as if a set of longer muscles may be more functional on the wing. I particularly like the way that the trees appear, and the subtle gradation on the lower muscles of the arms and legs.

That blood looks far to real...

the blood=mature label

VERY well done just not something that interest

Kerrigore Says:

How I do love the movement of the blood in this picture and the lighting here. The only issue I have are those wing muscles but I think an effective critique was already previously stated so I won't bother with that. At any rate, gorgeously gorey.

OkamiZaku Says:

Great job, I'm surprised you did some of this in Flash.

LadyVenomMyotismon Says:

@__@ W-wow...That is a friggin' masterpiece...so ridiculously sexy.
The blood is amazing, along with the moon shining down on him.
Sexy lighting...>w<; I just cant stop staring at this.

Munkee Says:

Do you have any plans to stop being so fucking amazing all the damn time?
