Description
Sorry for the PNG format; I felt it warranted it. o.o;Commission Information
This is a full stylized digital drawing, with a base price of around $30-40 for this level of detail.

Yay, I'm actually somewhat content with this! I was completely hating on the background until I finished the character; I think he really made it okay. e__e; But it is a much more simplistic background than I usually like, because it is a stylized piece. I really don't like the totem pole, though, as far as composition and flow goes; it's so darn rigid and, iono, vertical. >_>; It's distracting. I should have some somethin to ounteract it, but I couldn't figure out what. Suggest something if you want, but I ain't changing it at this point. o__o
Unfortunately, I feel the colours make it feel warmer and more tropical than it should. Bah. >___>; But anything cooler made Iquiak look just plain weird, sadly.
Anyhow. Iquiak belongs to . Go love on her for the spiffy character design; I think he's sexy.
TOTEMPOLESSUCKASS. kthxbye.
Done on Adobe Photoshop CS1. Clocked at 7-8 hours.

He is so gosh-darn pretty, Nylak. Your coloring style is worth dying for. I really like how you did the beach, too!
I'll take this as a tribute to the good ol' PNW. Thank you very much, Nylak. And thank you, Youkou, for commissioning it. xD

The texture of the fur on his chest... wow.
And not to mention everything else. The choices of color for highlights and shading make it all come together so smooth like.
The only thing that bothers me is the front left paw.
Shouldn't the 'wrist' be a little bit higher?
Mind you, I don't know much about canine anatomy and nowhere near anything species specific.
Still, everything's so smooooth I love it.

Beautiful! I love the colors, the sunset, and my favorite of all - - the shine on his coat! I should work on my digital art... if you have any tips that could help me, I would appreciate it.

You know what, I don't think it looks that tropical. For me it looks like a really cool morning at the beach...like the water would be ice cold and the wind would have a bite. I dunno, maybe that's just me!
Your shading = the awesomest thing evah!
