Artist's Comments

Traditional piece in pen and ink. This animal is called the "Okapi". I sketched this animal at the Wild Animal Park. The next day I made it into an ink drawing.
It scanned a bit rough. The lines are a lot more smooth in person.

I love it.
I love the Okapi's stripped bum too. x3

I actually thought this was a digital work. That proves that there is barely a difference noticable between traditional inking and your digital inking.
Really great illustration. Personally I think you left a bit too much blank, but the details are great, and the style is very nice.

I love your style Jana! I like the way you've done the trees, the bark looks great and just accentuating some of the leaves works really well, and saves time I would imagine ;) Those Okapi look like really gentle animals.

Gosh, the cuteness! :aww:
I see your style is getting more and more precise and controlled. Knowing how you obsess over details, the time when there will be no dot out of place is near :laughing: Nice drawing. For some reason, I like the crow a lot, too.
