[Updated - 7/26/2018] (Edited image due to original upload both being exported in the wrong color space and without an ICC profile being embedded. This resulted in the colors being faded, washed out, and incorrectly displayed on other computers; not how I created them. More information can be found in this journal post.)

Decided I wanted to have an avatar of a drawing over on FA instead of my logo like I have here (since the icons are a bigger resolution than here on DA). So I decided on making the one and only Ti'maar to represent me! XD ...He's so adorable hahaSpent all afternoon today on this (I got carried away lol). But worth it to see that face! XD__________May be hard to tell, but this is also a color experiment I have been wanting to do for a very long time! Pretty much no relation in this attempt to my previous digital coloring method haha.As I have discussed in the past, the way I color has become far too cumbersome and difficult to get more realistic colors with (it has really been holding me back skill wise last few months) So this does away with all of the layers, and now I only have like 5 color layers. (grouped only by material like clothes and fur here instead of my usual dozens upon dozens of layers and folders XD ) Now with this method I color now straight onto the one layer all the shadows, colors, and everything else! It is quite a bit more challenging this way, but I vastly prefer the results now that I know what I am doing (mostly) and it is actually more fun! XD So I be coloring with this method from now on(I'm actually super excited to see where it goes XD )__________Also here is an alternate version with his tongue poking outDecided against using it early on, but it is fun enough to share! XD__________Let me know what you think, especially of the new coloring method!Comments, critiques, and suggestions welcomed!Thanks! ^^
