| 4 Sep 2005 | Rickard KJ Fornstedt | The feather-ear ring makes him look very human or civilized. Even though the pose is an important factor, I still believe that the ear ring is the most important detail stop him from looking like a normal animal. Cool little fellow!  Emma JC Nilsson replies: "I was debating if I should make him wear clothes or not, but in the end I only gave him the earring. I think the fingers give away that he's an anthro, but some think it just make him look like some kind of monkey. o.o, I guess it might." | |
| 6 Sep 2005 | Reck | Hey cool picture again. It must of took a while for all the detail. I like the earing too. it makes it look a little different which is good of cource.  Emma JC Nilsson replies: "Yeah, I worked on this one for a while. The spots were the most time-consuming part, but also the easiest. Funny how the simplest of things can take the longest. =)" | |
| 25 Sep 2005 | Jennifer Russo | It's good to see something really original in your gallery... You should try to do more characters like this, with creative compositions, poses, and subjects. I love the way you get so much glossiness with your shading style. Beautiful!  Emma JC Nilsson replies: "Thank you! I'm satisfied with the result of this one, especially the hands. Generally, I really suck at drawing fingers, but this one I'm pleased with. I'm glad you think Thirkin is original, actually, I don't remember how I came up with the idea. I think I was just fascinated with anthros as I had just learned about them, and I happened to like genets, so... =)" | |
| 20 Mar 2006 | Alisha 'Dragon Grrl' Giroux | ooh. I like him ^_^ I especially love the flow-y tail!  Emma JC Nilsson replies: "Yay for long, fluffy tails! ^_^ I want a pet genet..." | |
| 30 Apr 2006 | lilly101 | How many more pics like thirkin "did you make?" sorry i forgot that part. | |
| 30 Apr 2006 | lilly101 | Wow! =) she/he is so cool! You are a great artist!!!! How many more pics like thirkin? Will you tell me how to find them??????  Emma JC Nilsson replies: "Thank you. =) Thirkin is a male. I haven't done many anthro-pictures at all, I'm afraid, I usally do humanoids with just ears and tail, like nekos. There is another kind of anthro-being here on elfwood, check it out if you like. It's called 'Lorian'." | |
| 13 Aug 2006 | Samuel E Martens | I love this one. The earring adds a nice touch. I never saw an animal with an earring before. Obviously sentient, Thirkin looks like he’s thinking. Love the tail too!  Emma JC Nilsson replies: "The earring is there to make it clear that Thirkin is an anthro and not an ordinary animal. Finishing the picture, I thought he looked too much like a lemur, or something. =/ Thirkin is smart and he might be pondering some slightly wicked plan... =)" | |
| 16 Dec 2006 | Martha 'Kestrel' Perotto-Wills | An anthro GENNET, huh? Ya don't see many of those around.  Emma JC Nilsson replies: "What can I say..? ^.^ I just love little nocturnal predators with spotted fur and bad temper. How can you not?" | |
