This is the holy tiger of evanescence.

I spend countless hours to draw this picture... I hope you like it :D

I wanted the tiger, especially his head, to pop out and be the focus of this picture. The strawberries are growing out of the tendrils, that are coming from the touch of the tigers paw and the ground. The tiger is the holy God of Evanescence, which means, where he goes there is life for a short time, in this case the strawberries on the ground of the forest, before they wilt and are gone. Evanescence for me means leaving life, which happens with time, so the clock around the tigers neck also has a meaning.
... sorry for my crappy English ^^'

This picture is done absolutely wonderful! The background technique is very unique. The painting technique that you did it is very professional and it looks so realistic that it looks like it's been doing in 3-D style. The cell shading is very original and the background that you did it is absolutely amazing. Background is done very professional, the picture is done very beautiful. The brightness and the light that you made it on the sky and on the tiger is very beautiful and it looks incredible. The details are done very well. Everything is perfect and it can see every detail that you put it. The atmosphere is done perfect the contrast is going from high light green to middle dark green. And The fur that you do on him it looks absolutely amazing. I just simply don't know which words for this I should find. When I'm watching this, there's nothing more for me to say accept, that you are truly natural talent. All congratulation on this to you. Keep up with you're good work on this.

This is absolutely beautiful. It shows amazing color contrast and jaw dropping detail. For example adding turquoise stripes and the
necklace was very creative! You used the up most human imagination to create fictional qualities inside the picture. You took the concept of a tiger and added beast like concepts. The horns, human-like hair, and the vines sprouting like an aura around his right paw is magnificent. Another thing to add is your adequate addition of the fog/mist in the background. Your picture gives the user an all to real image that makes feel like your actually in the picture!

great work!

I think this is my all-time favorite picture that you've done. Everything is so brilliantly detailed and carefully balanced. It seems so mystical and otherworldly. The tiger's main is beautifully done, especially.
