Freebie Friday: @CreativeSoul's Tiger!

@creativesoul
I am so so so so so sorry that I've taken so long on this! After you told me that tigers were really special to you, I went into all-out perfection mode. I had to make it amazing because they're special to you!

I dunno if I accomplished amazing, but after a lot of work, I'm finally satisfied with it.

I hope you like it!

It's not that good... ^^;; But I did work hard on it, and I am satisfied with how it turned out.

I'm so sorry it took me three freaking weeks to get it done. I just couldn't recreate the deleted file and leave it at that. Not after finding out how much tigers mean to you. <3

The texture is from the background, because I tried to make it a grassy background.

Glad you like it!

I just realized I screwed up one of the layers, though. I forgot to move the layer with the eyebrows up to the top at the end. Ugh.

I'd say it's the best one I've seen you do so far :)

Why thank you very much!

Not bad for being drawn on a really shitty nearly dead Galaxy Note II, eh? I'm trying to improve all-around. Which I actually am. I always hoped that maybe I would be halfway decent at digital art, since I can't really do anything decent by hand with analog materials.

I've been wanting to buy a drawing tablet for a long time, but (aside from financial issues) I haven't because I didn't think I could justify it.

But doing Freebie Fridays like this, and watching myself improve so much over a few weeks, I feel like the purchase of a drawing tablet would be completely justified.

When we can afford it, I mean.

Unfortunately, all the art I do on my phone looks really washed out on my laptop. So getting a drawing tablet, I wouldn't be able to see the colors properly on my laptop screen while working on it.

So...I'm trying to see if I can adjust the saturation. If not, I'll have to add "get another laptop as soon as possible" to the list of things I need to get.

But, I think as long as I have the ability to keep practicing and I keep improving, I may very well be able to make a living off digital art. I'm a roleplayer (haven't really roleplayed in years, but it's still in my soul) and roleplayers will pay a ton to have someone draw their characters for them. So I hope i can get into that niche.

Sorry, I'm rambling. I'm just feeling really good about my art lately.
