What's better than 24? (Birthday)
25!!!
And do you know what my Birthday Wish was? My one and only desire was to get this picture done, because this isn't for me. This is MY gift for all the friends I could squeeze into it! You guys are seriously the best things in my life! I could sit like normal and ask for stuff as per the norm, but for this year, if only this once, I wanted to give a gift instead of get one. Whether you're a new watcher, and old friend, as passer by, a single time commenter, all of you mean so much to me! Your support for my art, my stories, or your faith in me as a friend are what give my life substance!! Your kindness, your presence, our conversations be they a single comment a week or a daily fixture all inspire me to try to be the best me I can be, and be even better the next day!
So here's to all of you for sticking around and here's to hoping that you're here for another 25! And if you're not in the picture take heart, it's not that we're not friends, I just ran out of room and ran out of time to add anyone else because I wanted to get this done today.

That little grin of hers is one of my favorite parts of the picture actually! lol seems your charming no matter what picture you pop up in!!
lol and please it's the least I can do! You're very nice to me in kind and you've even done giftart for a character I've not even finished! Your generosity, company, and friendship are all wonderful additions to my day! I'm just glad you liked the picture!
And thank you so much for the fave!

Hey thanks a lot man! Sorry that I didn't manage to fit you into the picture, but I consider you a very good friend too! I hope there aren't any hard feelings for that. If I had more time I would've gotten you, Ronnie, two of my other friends, and so many more on here!
And thus he opened his greaser arms and spawned all the creatures of the Earth. Lol that's what it looks like to me, like you're fricken Gehn creating a world. https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.co.....2d65266558.jpg
Look at all the fuzzy little creatures around you hehe, it's quite adorable. Then you've got a chibi little Cindi flung up over you lol, she looks pretty confused. Are.. those bubbles over her head??
Is that airplane someone's character? XD
I love how you look in this, lol you look so pleased. Happy birthday man, when I was done there I didn't know you were so close to your birthday. I'm interested about your style, why do you only ink some things in your drawings and not others?

XD oh wow! Now there's a unique comparison! Thank you! lol honestly it's more like I just kinda tossed everyone up into the air and this is the moment before they all start coming back down.
lol now she was an absolute nightmare to get the face right on without making her look creepy! XD and I wanted to show off that she's gone from a big pile on hug with everyone else, to being airborne all of a sudden. Those are supposed to be more of a more comic-y way of conveying her surprise, I've also seen a similar effect given by putting lines next to the side of the person's head.
X'D No dude, that's actually kind of a nod to the blue cabbit under it as my friend Nicholai is way into planes! In his character's storyline he's the owner of PAW Airlines (the livery on the plane in the picture though isn't his, it's more based on Virgin Airlines)
Why thank you! I was actually trying to give myself the look of a Rankin-Bass style cartoon with this because I wanted my humans to be just as cartoon-y and lively as the furs I draw to keep them evened out visually. Well normally after a talk with my friend Sal, I ink the majority and leave some things that I don't want to bring prominence to un-inked to help give the illusion of depth. And I wish I could say that that's mainly the case here, but for here I'd say it was more a matter of time constraints. Though now that you mention it I do notice I have a favoring of partially inking over full inking in my own works. A perfect example of that are http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22980939/ and http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22458286/

The fact that I got this done in time and everyone seemed to enjoy it ensured that I had a terrific birthday! I'm really glad no one minded me spontaneously drawing their character without asking ^^' I just wanted it to be a surprise and can assure I won't make a habit of it! But thank you very much and I really appreciate the fave! Thank you ^w^
Well in that case I'm very glad you enjoyed it! For as much as your work makes me smile, if I could return that even for a fraction of a second I'd be honored ^w^ I'm just sorry I didn't put in the stripes on your tail. I was using a silly picture of Tater and it had the spots instead of the stripes ^^'
lol it's the least I can do for how nice you are to me! XD And I cannot tell you how many times I've listened to ACDC's "It's a long way to the top" while I was drawing and coloring your bagpipes and sona. I physically can no longer look at that picture of her without hearing that bagpipe solo!! And thank you very much! The fact I got this done on time and you enjoyed it ensure that my birthday was indeed a very happy one! Thank you so much for the fave!
lol my friend it was no trouble at all! I WANTED to make you guys a gift, lol that's why I didn't mention it was near my Birthday. I'm really happy you enjoyed the picture though, that means a lot to me and thanks a lot for the fave! I really appreciate it ^w^ And you're so nice!! Honestly your picture deserve the high praise! You're an incredibly talented, sweet, and kind person whom I'm very honored to have met!
