Untitled Tiger Project Part 1

Drip. Drip.

The strange feeling came over the tigress Penumbra once again. Her paws tingled, her charcoal hair rose as if electrified, and her body felt faintly as if it were being constricted by the air around her. She flicked her ears in irritation, but she was too used to the phenomenon to express actual alarm. She didn't even bother to raise her head off of her single broad foreleg. The sensation would pass, as it always did, and she paid little mind to it.

It was the water leaking from the rusted pipe above her head that caught her interest, though. She had been absent-mindedly watching the pure water fall

A Measure of Scrutinyby *MoonsongWolf

Traditional Art / Drawings / Animals

What do you think he's looking for?

*Enaxn's "surprise" commission of her Maltese tiger character Switchback. I definitely can't complain about drawing him again... I love tigers!

The background was reffed off of an ancient (+25 years old) photo that my grandfather took of a white lion at Lowrey Park Zoo in Florida. I didn't ref the cat directly, though, other than the general pose, because lions look nothing like tigers.

Medium: coloured pencil and white acrylic ink

My my I like the composition in this picture the most. Is he an albino?

*MoonsongWolf Jan 23, 2009

He's a Maltese tiger, which is a tiger that has a bluish colour where the orange normally is. It's a beautiful colouration that has been reported in wild tigers but has never been scientifically documented. I always keep hoping that one is going to turn up some day.

This looks so beautiful! I really loved the amber eyes, they are so lovely! And of course, the colour of the character, make no mistake, is the thing I love the most about it! Impressive work
