This has to be of my biggest and most proud of pics I have!!! And of course, with the help of Quill, the duck, who helped with the positioning of the characters here.
The whole idea began as a celebration of the collaboration that Quill, the duck, has with me by helping me sort out some of the infos with commissions, as well as communicating with the clients and such. If you have gotten a pic from me recently, probably you've been talking with him for details and what not!
So, with this idea in mind, he suggested a "little" fun pic where friends gathered together to celebrate the occasion, with us both as the main treat ^^
This picture came out as a YCH I made available a while ago through FurAffinity, and the winners were:
Gorf, who got the rear of the cat ;P, Raz Raccoon, putting some of his stuff on the duck's beak, Tale the Duck! a good friend who managed to grab Quill in a friendly squeeze, Vestinock, the pink tiger getting the most out of the duck, Alta with his cute bun behind Ventus, the Lukario, and Senky! my beautiful fluffy dragon friend having to be bitten by me ^^
Thank you all for making this picture possible! it was a crazy job on composition, and I'm very happy with how the eyes flow from character to character, while keeping the strongest focus onto the duck.
Hope to get this one printed maybe offer it at conventions, show it at an artshow , who knows!

This first sketch shows the positioning suggested by Quill , for which I reworked and played with to make the picture more iconic and the bodies more entangled with each other.

Later on I went crazy and did a huge composition with many bodies!

So much happening at once! I still feel the urge of making something huge like this one day

I kept developing the idea into a more intimate and less crowded event ^^;
