This is a concept redux of an old picture I did. The idea of a smaller character manipulating a bigger one appeals to me, at some level. Besides, fox plus tiger? What's not to like?
[Also, this is a tester for me, seeing in what manner I like to ink best. I'm really digging this Sakura Pigma Micron 08 (.50mm) archival ink pen. It's very smooth and I can do little fur wisps and textures and such. It's just a little -too- enthusiatic to go on the paper, and I have to digitally delete overeager lines sometimes!]

Is this a reference to that one picture you did with the fox and the brawny otter? The one where the otter is lifting the fox up on his shoulders so he can see the moon? Either way, the inking is done well. The hair on the fox looks kinda stringy to me. Outline it more as a mass rather than drawing in the lines. Then toss the shading in for the light. Been working on hair myself. Messy stuff.
His thighs have a weird tension too, liek they should be pressing against each other instead of overlapping. Those stripes are very uniform, though that may be your style. Some variation might be more visually engaging. The tiger looks like you, facially though I do not recognize the fox. Never minding the fact that you can't trust foxes. I would advise against letting any ride on your shoulders. Hands are looking sharper, at least the tigers are.
Ink more.

The hair of the IRL fox is kind of thin/fluffy, so I thought a minimalist approach would work better... oh well.
His thighs are pressing together and overlapping, though. See how his left foot is arched up and there's more tension in the right knee? And how his left shoulder is tilting down? He's trying to compensate for having a wiggly vulpine climbing all over him. Fail artist is full of fail.
The face looking like mine I can only attribute to my predisposition to draw all faces the same. .__.;; Though on the stripes, tigers and zebras and other animals (humans) are bilaterally similar. I was led to believe that they're more-or-less identical from one side to the other? I might be wrong about that... damnit.
