Scratchboard and Ink

The client asked for a tiger coming out of the dark and he wanted him to be menacing - snarling even. You see he was in Vietnam and he said tigers were the thing that scared him the most when he was in the jungle at night. He wanted a picture to remind himself of that terrible beautiful creature that haunted his dreams....... tall order, right?? We settled on this pose since I didn't have any snarling references and I think he was happy in the end.

Got my tiger back from the client last week and had a professional photo taken of it. Now I can offer prints here and through my website. I have four maybe five more to collect and then I'm all caught up. Time consuming and expensive project!

Just like all of your other sratchart workes, fantastic detail and composition. I really love the colors and I agree, it can be hard to do and phtograph. I must say though you photograph your scratchart well - much better than I can!

The pose is really nice and I love his eyes and the lighting. The only thing that stands out too much for me is the leg that is out in front, I think it might be the shap. It's hard to tell, but my eyes go there when I'm not looking at his wonderful eyes! You always seem to do well with eyes, they are never flat and dull.
