The Result of Tara Putting Butt to Chair, Pencil to Paper, Pen to Tablet, and/or Mouth to Food.

I definitely take that as a compliment.

Also, that fox needs a name. Wink wink nudge nudge wink kick punch scream wink.

Cornelius? Jerry? Earl? Erma?

I'm not really sure what names fit foxes...

re: I don't know if the fox is female or male, but Charlotte was the first name that popped into my head, followed by Becca.

Tara, I love you.

I love that fox.

Please make more fox.

I will make more fox, yes.

Fox is boy. Boy fox.

I thought of Noah and a friend of mine suggested Wicks.

He's so cute!

I like the name Rosenfeld. My son likes Sam. Or Brewster.

These are adorable. What are you making them in?

Fuck buying her a scanner. Somebody hook her up with a modern computer and a recent version of Photoshop! Quick!

If worse comes to worse, I'll get it taken care of when I'm a billionaire.

I do have a modern computer! A very good computer. I've got an even better one on the way. >:3

And getting a new version of Photoshop won't do much. The real problem here is that I dunno anything about using Photoshop or how to paint on the computer. Gotta get on that ASAP. When it comes to new art programs, I've been considering Sai. A lot of my favourite artists give it endless praise.

I STILL WANT A SCANNER THOUGH GOD DAMN IT WHAT DO I DO WITH ALL OF THIS WATERCOLOUR ART

Oh snap. I hope I didn't just make Tara mad :P I'm sure your computer is very nice. I'll never talk smack about it again.

YES I'M VERY MAD

LOOK

LOOK AT HOW MAD I AM URURUGUHRUGHASDKJ;Sasdfasd

awesomeness, Tara! :)

Say, is Whiskers a good name for the fox?

Not bad, but not as good as Fluffy.

For fox sake! Why is it so difficult to think of a name? Anyway, very good drawings, Tara. Fame could be just around the corner.

I'm gonna hold off on more serious art until my new computer arrives so for the next while, continue to enjoy silly happy fun times:

A request from a friend
http://i44.tinypic.com/nv8xp0.png

Having a hard time choosing a name for that fox. So many wonderful suggestions. ; n ;

Felix would be good because it's a cat name and foxes are very cat like.

Viktor the Fox.
Marcus the Fox.
Bobby the Fox.
William the Fox.
P.J. the Fox.
Nutsy the Fox.
Sir Chumbly the Fox
Peter the Fox
Funky the Fox
Fred the Fox
George the Fox, aka Foxy George
Gerald the Fox
and finally, McGillis the Fox

MY LIST IS LONG ENOUGH, STOP MAKING THIS HARDER THAN IT ALREADY IS BUT ALSO THANK YOU

AND

Photography is art, so here's a buncha stuff from my hiking trip today/yesterday!

First off, banana slugs for Zeebs~ ♥

I like P.J the fox

Thank you for the banana slugs~

Yeah, something about that name jumped out at me too, for some reason. But what exactly does the 'P.J' stand for?

I think 'Peter Jackson' is taken.

P.J. = Percy-Joe

I like McGillis because he looks Scottish to me

Nah man, s'all good. She was super friendly. Kind of lethargic, actually. I think she just came out of hibernation recently. I was more worried about the horse flies than the bees!

I AM THE BEE WHISPERER

Banana slugs are cool. We have a few types out here.

Hmm, I vote Cornelius. It sounds the most like an explorers name lol.

I think Darwin would be a cool name. Darwin Foxly, or something like that.

There's an obvious link between the name Darwin and animals, so it fits well. And I guess you could say that Darwin was an explorer of the animal kingdom.

Cornelius is nice.

There should be another character in there, like a badger or something, who always calls the fox "Captain" because he has shell shock and is deluded into thinking that the fox fought in the war with him.

It's all about establishing the proper profiles.

Lovin dis stuff!

I've barely done anything and you're all coming up with a character just because of possible names! I love you guys.

I was indeed thinking of other characters. I had a crow in mind, one that was in a dream, actually. Might do something else instead, we'll see.

Everyone is loving Cornelius but I'm still partial to Wicks because the friend who suggested it was also the inspiration for this fox. It's short and quick and sly yet quirky. Maybe his full name will be Cornelius Wicks and his crow/badger/other friend will use "Cornelius" when he wants to be a bother.

That's cute.

His mom can yell "Cornelius!" when he's in trouble. :P

HE WON'T HAVE PARENTS WHERE HE'S GOING

/cue depressing music

So far, any story revolving around him is just about generic adventures in the woods. Something fun and simple for me to doodle. No family (and no friends unless I stick that second character in there), and I'm leaning towards mostly no dialogue. Like the fishing picture, but hopefully I'll get around to making more panels and having comic strips instead of one big drawing.

That's a shame. I was thinking that the story could revolve around his attempt to come to terms with his negligent mom, absent father and always more popular than him older brother while working as a hotel maintenance engineer in Boston. I was picturing at least four or five trade paper-backs worth of serious graphic novel material with social commentary on the state of the proletariat in light of the fact that the ruling elite really don't have that much of a choice about how to best conduct foreign policy with the people only being willing to support war when they believe that it will make them feel better.

I guess a fox could hang out in the woods though. Seems weird but you could probably make it work.

I know it's totally weird EVERYONE IS GOING TO HATE IT UGH sob

Like what kind of fox hangs out in the woods? COME ON, TARA.

Don't beat yourself up, Tara. I, for one, love the fox in the woods idea. True artists are always trying new things, instead of sticking to the same old cliches. You should be proud of your originality.

OHWAIT A CREEPER MONSTER FELLA
http://i43.tinypic.com/20aw4d2.png

Also, a gorilla/sloth/bear! ♥~~~
http://i43.tinypic.com/hvndwg.png

and me
http://i42.tinypic.com/cnha8.png

aaaaaaand my new avatar was made by me. Snails!~

One of the fox's friends should be a snail who is on a long, arduous journey of traveling some trivial distance. Despite his resolve, he never gets to his destination, nor even seems to make any progress since they always find him in exactly the same spot. The joke being that snails are very slow.

I like the creeper monster fellow and the gorrila/sloth/bear that also has a slightly lionish face.

HELP

BANANA SLUG COLOUR OR LEOPARD SLUG COLOUR?

http://i42.tinypic.com/fcoh14.png

Looks like a good duo. I'd have to see the background to pick though if you only want one. So I guess I'm not much help. But a tetrapod slug is an awesome idea.

Ain't no background. Just doodled him up and couldn't decide on his colouration. He'll be adventuring with the fox fella at some point so I'm thinking I'll go with the leopard slug colouration since the fox is already yellow/orange.

And thaaaaaank ya kindly~

You said what I was thinking. But I personally prefer banana slug.

I LOVE that slug. Either one. But I agree the leopard slug colour might work better.

leopard slug all the way.

So from that b&w monster thing I drew a while back, came this:

http://i39.tinypic.com/2qu3eaq.png

Not a very original design but oh my god I love him~ adorabubu~ kawaii~ etc.

gorillla/sloth/bear!!! and slugs made me so happy immediately. Im talking gasp and giggles like a kid.

And although both are handsome (as far as snails go?) but i feel compelled to say leopard slug for the win.

So good!

Thanks duuuude~~ ♥

My goodness Tara, this thread is so wonderful, your art is brilliant! I want to see more of this fox :D

Bearilloth

It's about to get 10x more bootyful (and bootylicious) because I drew Garrus from Mass Effect
