Description ACEO trade with ~whitediaraikia of their lynx character, Kirsch. I had a lot of trouble drawing this character for some reason. This came out as my fourth re-draw before I came up with something I liked! But, I do like the way it finally came out! I fail at cog wheels though.

Check out ~whitediaraikia 's half here --->

Kirsch belongs to ~whitediaraikia

Hi!

I was being a creeper and stalking #ArtistTradingCards ' gallery for some people to trade with, and this card really caught my eye.

Would you be interested in doing a trade with me? The ATC info is in the ATC folder in my gallery. I do both custom and have four premade.

Hope you're interested!

I have a ton of trades going currently so I am afraid I will have to decline for the time being But I would love to trade in the future if you would like? I will probably be back open in a month or two for more trades outside the group ones I do every month

Do you use a template to get those gears?
They looked too perfect to be done by hand.
I happen to love you methods of coloring not only the character,
but the backgrounds.
shh..
dont tell me the secret..
it will spoil desert for me.

When I see gears usually I think Steampunk, and seeing a tiger to go along with that even better. as well think that the half a face out side the image works as if it can be mirrored, as well when it comes to the background that looks like moistened parchment, all the same nice work.

OMG This is truely amazing! I love everything about this! Here's another long comment, I have to be quick because I'm doing Valentines now.
The first thing that caught my eye was Kirsch, not the background. You drew him in a background that makes him stand out more, which is excellent. I love the patterns of this character. It fits him so well. I also adore the concept of only half of his face is on the ACEO. I gives the bckground to be visible to the viewer, too.
I like how you did the fur and how you shaded each piece of fur well. Fur is usually hard of me to shade, since I don't draw each piece out like you do. Excelent job with that!
I think you did a fine job with the cog wheels. I'm not so good at drawing gears either, so you're not alone. XD Another thing that caught my eye was the rusty background. I was all, . It was an amazing idea to do a rusty background with cogs and a red and white character. It fits it so freaking much.
Amazing job with this ACEO and keep up the marvelous work.

Oh, no. I'm not that good of a writer. XD But thank you, anyway.
I should do more critiques? Maybe. I could probably do a journal for it (like you did ^^) once I have enough time (which is in, forever? XD).
