*throws some confettis at your face*

Here you go to Jennifer Deese, who wrote the 100th comment on my gallery! She asked for a purple fox and some stars...

This is what I came up with, I hope you like it, although I'm certain it's not quite how you might have imagined it when you tried to draw that yourself :p (Aww and I finished it before I saw your comment on the number of tails... :/ )

SO yay me for accomplishing this challenge! It's my first fox ever  ;  I had a pencil-drawn reference for the anatomy and such, but this pic is done entirely by MEY in photoshop CS2 ; a full 2 days of work and frustration, with an adesso tablet. I luv purple ! lol... So comment on it people, I want to know what you think about the fur and everything...there are too  many errors in there, I know, but is it still nice? Please Critic!! 

  Cheers Everybodeh!

P.S.: YES I play too much Assassin's Creed :p

It’s really professional looking! The drop shadow on the sphere beneath the fox helps round out the dimensionality of the piece. The details on the fox are perfect. I hope you plan on going into illustration work at some point. I haven’t a clue how to even open the photoshop on my new computer, let alone create something this complex. Hats off!!! (loud cheers from the crowd) Love the soft, diffused quality of the nebula. I swear you’ve hidden imagery in the nebula... have you?
You rock!
Peace,
Joel

:-) Katherine Deros replies: "Hehe !! *blushes* so much praise 18 Glad you like it, I guess XD No, there’s nothing particular about the nebula...Not intentionally at least ^.^ THANK YOU so MUCH!!! <3"

Go purple! First time drawing a fox?! Amazing! You did a great job shading the fur, it looks real! My favorite is the face and tail. I just noticed that one of the clouds almost looks like a wolf howling at the moon (or maybe it’s just me ... [chuckles])

:-) Katherine Deros replies: "I think I can see the wolf thingy in there... Somehow... If I try very hard... 1 lolz"
