This wolf was made using eyes and a base from DrakonicKnight, I modified the eye area to expand the range of vision as much as possible as per client request. This was an artistic liberty commission with the criteria being a male wolf showing signs of advanced age, I approved the characterized bushy brows and beard before applying them.
Claws and paw pads bought from DVC, I personally dislike the palm-pad style of paw pads but will do them upon request as seen here :)
Tons of airbrushing and detail went into this! <3 horsehair whiskers, white eyelashes, layer upon layer of color <3
I have decided that from now on I will be using a purchased base for feline and canine commissions as there are just so many great ones to choose from out there and I love supporting my peers, also honestly I have felt my skillset in making head frames was always best suited to okapi and ibex and other animals bases don't exist of, by using a pre-crafted base for felines and canines I can get right to the fun part, that being fur and paint and whiskers, and WOW did I have fun putting tons of extra detail into this one :) <3
