Once again, the time of year had come for my friend (Who wishes to remain anonymous) to grace me with his overly generous support of my artistic endeavors by paying far over my asking price for a commission! For the past few years this has become sort of a yearly gift and tradition, which I’ve always looked forward too! Not just for the monetary support, but more so, the enjoyable experience of working with him and getting the chance to push my abilities further because of the extra time I’m able to invest into the project!
This years Commission was no different from its predecessors. Not only was it a Futuristic Themed piece, which is extremely rare from me (I joke of it likely looking completely out of place in my gallery), but also a piece with a complete Environment/Background. Throwing in my typical illustrative story style approach to the portrayal, a very dynamic view angle, and adding in my recent experimental Digital post work techniques all into the mix, I think I’ve ended up with quite the end result!

The Character portrayed here is a Felinoid Space Traveler who’s ship has been stopped by mysterious strangers. Are they friend or foe? Either or, it’s best to be prepared for anything!

The commissioner came up with the Title “All or Nothing Diplomacy”(Which is great because I’m Horrible when it comes to Titles!lol) and the backstory/setting, but left the specifics and details up to me, which in my case makes things a little more difficult, for the way I work, the more specific something is the better off I am. ^_

In the end another wonderful Project and a fun challenge! I hope you all enjoy this piece as much as my other works, even with its non medieval theme! ^_

To the commissioner, as always, it was a wonderfully fun challenge, and a real pleasure to work on, and to work with you again! Can’t wait for our next project together and a huge thank you again, you have no idea how much your support helps me! Until Next Year! :D
