I finally worked my way up to my more recent work, yay! This is one of my favs. I was inspired to work on it, I suppose. A LOT of people on DA asked me if it was a nine tails. No, it's not. It's only got seven tails, for one. It does, however, share a common root--the kitsune. In some versions, the kitsunes are all nine-tailed and friendly guys. In some, they are nasty tempered and awful, starting out with one tail and growing them one by one, until they reach nine, upon which they become enlightened and friendly.
Anyway, this one only has seven, and is a force to be reckoned with!
Prints avaliable! Note me if interested. :3

THis is simply amazing. THis kitsune looks quite formidible, frightening even, as it makes its way, then spots the viewr.. It's stark, almost glowing pure white eyes give it an unearthly, almost borderline demonic look matched well by it's snarl. The kitsune-bi, the foxfire that appears here and there around it also convey further it's unearthly nature, though it gives it a more celestial feeling. That sort of makes it a set of contradictions, that tie-in to a beautiful, dangerious being.
Amazing colors. Your lighting is just consistently spot on, and amazingly dynamic.
Awesome kitsune. I love the foxfire around it. Very well done ^.-.^
From what I hear the kitsune's tails split until he has nine at which point the earthly world can no longer support it's powerful presence and he moves on to a supernatural world. But that's how I heard the legend, no doubt there's variations.
The art looks good though, it has a lot of depth, I like it a lot!

LMAO I knew it was you but this confirms it. I saw this exact picture on the DA and I was like this artist's style reminds of my favourite seven tales picture on Devian Art. Could be the sam artist.
Now I know (knowing is half the battle G.I.Joe, )
Love that print. It was my desktop for a while.
You really do have an excellent understanding of lighting. Are my post starting to get annoying yet? lol At least you reduce the frequency of your daily submissions. Okay I going to shut up right… about………………………………………………………… NOW! *Runs, off to hide at his page*

Simpley gorgeous work! how could i not fave this ! yoru coloreing and expression is amazeing
*partial to kitsune art* Wonderfully done on this one^^ I love the balls of blue fire around him and the glowing effect. The shading and lighting is really nice too.^^
H— j— wh— GODS. <3<3<3 The light-and-shadow play, the expression, the modelling, the faint glow emanating from his coat, the use of lighting to convey texture, the sense of movement, the...the...gods of hell this is truly dumbfounding. *bows*
I love it!!
Awesome job on the color and expressions. I really like the little wisps around it

Being a kitsune myself *waves his measly five tails* I'm required to insta-fave this and watch you. Your talent is phenomanal, and very well done ^-^
My teacher onece made a face like that when a student swore at her...
ha I love it and I'm not even bothered by the photoshop brush. FAV!
Again, gorgeous rendering. n_n Lovely, powerful choice of lighting as well. <3
Very amazing work. I love the shading and coloring you use for it. Completely awesome!
Amazing, looks a little like Ninetales, beautiful and entrancing, great work, fav!
Wow O_O this is absolutly amazing O_O I feel very inadiquate right now
Positively ghoulish. Especially in the facial expression which really is half of the picture, in my opinion.
Unbelieveably cool!
But don't just take my word for it --- you've got almost 400 favorites.

Kitsune! Kitsune! Wow I really like this one ^^ Especially the fox fire around it. Great job ^^
In a word "Wow!". :o

I saw this one on DA. I always loved this one. The expression is so awesome...and the backgroound makes it like it's in space flying almost or jumping. ^^
I am most struck by those muscles in the thigh. Really lovely.
That's really impressive! The lighting in it is very interesting. Especially the soft effect of the little blue flames.
*wags*
*wags*
Utterly and absolutely gorgeous. I have nothing to say except that this picture is absolutely amazingly spifftacularly spiffy! *stares in awe*
omg....i NEED my TABLET now.....i am so behind the power curve on art....
Holy fucking crap! That's incredible. Scariest fox spirit I've ever seen depicted.
WHOA!!!!!!!! I'M ASTONISHED! HOLY CRAP!! This is INCREDIBLY good!
The strongly-rendered, almost three-dimensional features of the head and neck remind me of details found in Virgil Finlay's drawings -- and I mean that as high praise. A fascinating creature!

This is absolutely beautiful! I love the lighting in this piece and the fox spirit is awesomely done!
*charmed* I can't help loving the kitsune kind, and with this you have just made my love for them eternal. *bows* Gorgeous, excellent, just lovely...
(on a side note, folklore about kitsunes also includes some versions that they only have one tail for their whole lives and just like to work hard and live alone, cooking oden. Another version tells that there are different kinds of kitsunes, for one a pipe fox spirit that usually manifests the shape of a limbless flying snakeish fox, and occasionally transforms into a nine tailed fox. Yet another one would say that a kitsune grows a tail one per century lived, or one per good deed to humanity done, and does not nescessarily have an evil or mischievous nature. Some versions again tell that all kitsune are evil and just want to charm males by taking the form of gorgeous young women, taking them to bed and devouring their soul by possessing them.)

I do Love it though as to kitsune, it depends where they are from as to whether they are friendly or not. ie the Inari type....
Cheers! mo taihen keikko de gasu!
