Description I realized I never had an updated sheet of her up here. The character sheet of her in the gallery is ancient. So im uploading this. (had to adjust the colors so it looked OK on web. So it should look decent in the browser but not in photoshop).

My grasp on anatomy has really improved in the last few years. If you'd like to compare this to the old image of her, it's [link] . I find it fitting that drawings from the past looked puppy-like. They all look much more adult now as I improve!

In other news, the comic will be published on Nov. 14. Erin and I will be selling signed issues at Furfest (www.furfest.org) along with figures.

More details regarding online sales of the comic will be posted once I hammer out details.

o.O
And with the anatomy change comes a new and improved font, I see.

Hey, someone may have said this already...

But you *should* be able to fix your Photoshop/browser color problems like this.

When you create a new image, go to
View > Proof Setup and check the Monitor RGB.
Then go to View again and this time, click Proof Colors so it's checked.

This will make it so Photoshop will show the colors as they actually will look on a browser. However, annoyingly enough, the color picker doesn't really reflect that; but I find it's easier than having to tweak all the colors all over again.

To MAKE SURE the colors stay the same, when you go to save your image, UNCHECK "Embed Color Profile".

I hope that helps

Additionally, try this:

"You need to to go to: Edit>>Colour Setings and change your RGB space to 'sRGB IEC61966-2.1' and that should solve your problem."

Actually I always work in prepress color settings because I find it more important that the colors reflect more closely what it would look like printed rather than web. Since I make art for print & not simply to "put up", changing my color settings to web isnt wise when i can just fudge that
But thanks for the tips!

Why do the colours change when you post it to the web?

(this is Piano from BBA by the way, I changed accounts.)

you're improving a lot, constantly. But your style remains consistant. It's amazing. Such an awesome character, too.

Cuz my photoshop color settings are set to Us Prepress so that it looks good when I print the image. Its complicated, but its something i COULD avoid, but i'd sacrifice print accuracy
