All colored! Juno's doing a little pavement surfing in her hometown. She better be careful or she'll get a scrape. Another one, I mean.

This was a beautiful opportunity to try out some new techniques, including a brush for roughing up the wall in the background. Pretty much since the end of last year, I've been more thoughtful about aspect ratios -- not that it makes or breaks a piece, but I like the process of deciding on an aspect ratio (like 2:3 for upright portraits) and making the scene fit into it.

Your work is always so incredible. I love this, inspires me to work in more skate stuff.

DeltaRedWolf

These are so lovely, Kal!! It's cool to see both versions. She's a very brave fox for skating nude! I love the little detail of the band-aid <3

Kiko

Your techniques are always great to see. Experimenting is great for expanding horizons and skill

Kalahari

It definitely is. Sometimes I have a habit of experimenting too much and taking WAY too long to finish a piece :P

Kalahari

If she stays at low speed she'll be fine. Probably.

Kalahari

That's really awesome if it does. I've been motivated to get more into poi spinning thanks to sketching it out a bunch.

Kalahari

She does wear the skater style well... I can't decide which one is canon >.>

I really like the shading on her tail fur! Looks so soft and fluffy! Maybe she needs to learn how to fall and break the fall with her tail for a softer landing! XD I also feel like these pieces would be perfect for a postcard!

Keleaux

She looks better clothed

Admiral Storm

That is some lovely work! Love the shading and the design of both of her outfits in these images!

Bex

Yeah, there's just something different about this one, in a positive skill way 😛. With her outfit, I feel the "physics" of the clothes adds more fluidity and movement. Idk how to explain it, but like the weight of the folds in the pants and the shading makes it feel like she's going somewhere. I like how her shoes and headphones match. For someone's not usually wearing clothes, Juno is still fashion-forward 😁. Like the background details too! The fence and trees

I still very much love the way you depict casual nudity, it just feels so natural.

Skyler

I love how this turned out. So like her, chilled and relax with a hit of sassy. ^^

“Another scrape”! Perfect for the nude one!

Skater Juno :D! You know, having a tail as fluffy as hers must really cause a lot of balance issues at times. Though something tells me she doesn't mind!

Keleaux

I hate that Juno isn’t real. She seems like a tomboy

Kalahari

If she learns how to use it to her advantage, she could probably do some impressive stunts...

Kalahari

That's the fun thing about clothes, using them to shape the flow and color harmony of an image. It's a little harder to do that with full nudity since it's kind of locked into the character's own build and coloration. But it makes me think about some middle ground with partial clothing or sizeable accessories...

Bex

True, some accessories could show movement, like long necklaces or a flowy scarf 🙂.

Really amazing art! That's so awesome. Seeing her like that. Bandaids really do add to the punk appeal.
