Dumpling

Thanks! It’s been a journey but not a bad one by any means

Hehe and almost all of him fits on the canvas ! A bit less paw pad is on there than I’d like but it’s a worthy sacrifice

Thanks! I’m happy with how it’s turned out especially for its size

We’re pretty close to a good check point~ just depends on how much coffee I can get after work at this point lol

Thanks! I still don’t think I have the best stroke economy BUT I’ve gotten incredibly good at hiding that fact. Kinda like how a “a grinder and paint will make you the welder you ain’t “ type deal

Thanks ! I’m happy with how it’s come out for the most part it’s more or less at the 25% mark depending how much or how little i move the goal post in the future 🤣

Thanks! It’s almost at the first layer milestone :D I can’t wait to look at it for 7 days and let it dry before I start rendering deeper and fixing some errors

Time to finish up the main blocks for the background ! We’re getting pretty close to the end of the first layer !

36 “ x 48” , I’m happy with how things have turned out but I’m losing out on quality from lack of some tooling 😅 I got one more canvas this big but idk if I’ll touch another monster this size this year

Well I would have liked to have kept the momentum going but the joys of life got in the way , thankfully not for too long though

And it shall be a reoccurring character ! For I have many works too heated and spicy for the palette of the algorithm!

I lik how it’s coming out so far , imho I wish I spent more money on a wider variety of brushes, in certain parts of the background feel a little muddy to me , but I need to give my self some grace since 95% of all the pieces I work on are the size of a note card rather than half my apts wall

Enough to give you whiplash , but you certainly won’t here me complaining

I thought about blocking in a canvas version of a fig leaf and just sticking it to the actual canvas with like a magnet but, it’s not worth the risk to damage the final piece for the sake of frivolous censorship.

Oh that’s a little sticker I made in like 30 mins to temper the heat of the original work :3 it’s not on the physical piece I just don’t want to post anything that’s too spicy for the algorithm. The full version of dumpy in all his glory will get posted on my FA eventually

Back on the oil painting grind !

Face is blocked in !

Thanks! And your too kind :) i personally dont see too much over lap with my furry stuff but my portraits do look a little similar to his !

It’s log render time ! The power of a good block out

Hehe if there’s no tumb on my man I don’t want him. I don’t believe in cutting season , only bulking nuclear winter .

The shadow side of dumpling face is mostly added

Woof woof , biceps and triceps

I have unlocked the greatest potential of the fig leaf , the times of strategic cropping are a bygone era now

Leggies and tumby

Hehe love handles or in his case “power “ handles . It’s like a built in weightlifters belt :3

So far so good ! I’ll be poking on it more during the week!

I am cautiously optimistic

More background , though I’d like to add a river when it’s dried . Plug for scale ~

Woof the browns coming in — that tumb got me feeling sweaty , good thing that definitely permanent fig leaf keeps the spice tempered

Oof sundays are never long enough
