7 Nov 2003	Lunar Pup	Loading... Very interesting,i love the idea and i especially love the baby reaching towards the moon.Lovely colors,her arm is a little hard to make out ,but i guess that is the point of leopards having spots,to blend.Right?OOhh i just love dat baby! Saber Alexander Orion McConnell replies: "Thank you for the kind comments! I was pleased with how this one came out. Her arm did end up a little diffiult to see, but I coudln't fix it too well without messing up the picture. Thanks again!"
24 Jan 2004	Elf Ranger	Loading... What inspired this picture? It's nice though... I really like the cub! Saber Alexander Orion McConnell replies: "Thanks! Glad you like. I like pictures of dark blue skies and ltos of stars, and I wanted to try my hand at a snow leopard. As for the pregnancy, that just was a last minute idea, not sure what inspired it. It just popped into my head!"
20 Feb 2004	Katie (Quezy) Finn	Loading... WOW! this is SO awesome!!! wow.. the shading is beautiful! ^^ i LOVE snow leopards, i just can't draw them -.- drat. suuuuch a pretty pic!!! Saber Alexander Orion McConnell replies: "Thank you very much! It was my first attempt at them, the more feral kind, at any rate."
8 Aug 2004	Yolaron	Loading... That's good. Very good. The expressions on both the faces are very well done. Keep doing this kind of thing! Saber Alexander Orion McConnell replies: "This was actually fairly different from what I normally do. Backgrounds are not good points with me, I'm afraid. but I do like dark skies and stars and moons!"
22 Sep 2004	Megs 'Gothic Tigress' Lune	Loading... Aw! So sweet! I luv the eyes on the two of them...green eyes is a fave of mine. I like how you added the bracelots/jewelry to the mother's tail also, not to mention the colors of the jewelry so it stands out more, along with the cubbackpack... Luverly job! Saber Alexander Orion McConnell replies: "Color is a thing that I pay a lot of attention to. I like colors. :grins: This one was hard for me, as it is not a kind of picture I have drawn a lot; it took a while to get right. And I like green eyes, too! Especially since green is my favorite color."
