Just while I think of it, a tip for anyone uploading
pictures. I have found that sometime the high colour
version results in a smaller file than a 256 colour version
- even for lineart pics! WEEEEIRD! Go figure. Also pays
to reduce your DPI from scanning resolution (typically 300)
to screen res of 72 dpi as this saves quite a bit of space.
 Ensuring the picture is small enough (which these two are)
to fit on a 1024x768 screen is also a good idea. :-) On
to the reviews.

Damn - NICE work! These are some good pics MMM! You've
drawn ZZ quite a bit by the look of the smoothness of your
lines. You've captured her pointed muzzle and hair shape
really well. Val I'd suggest her face needs to be little
broader and the white on her muzzle a little less (white
finishes closer to her nose), but still quite
recogniseable. A good pic. I wonder who they were
featuring in the movie with, since Val doesn't go for the
girl-on-girl thing, meaning there was at least one male
envolved! Some LUCKY fur out there!

Love the shot at Lockheed as well. I had seen a
documentary ages ago about Lockheed-Skunkworks during WWII
developing technologies and I was thinking at the time it
would be very cool if JMH could get sponsorship from them,
but apparently they were not too keen to have an
association from what Jim has suggested in previous posts.
You've drawn the sisters really well, the picture depth and
proportions are very good, with a good grade of lines.

I can see you are an artist with skill - As co-moderator
I'm very pleased to accept your contributions to the group
on Jim's behalf. I hope he'll get time to comment on them
when he gets back on line next; they are a very fine
tribute.

If you are up for commissions or art trades, mail me off
group. I'm frequently looking for quality artists to work
with, learn from etc. Helps me help others that way too.

Scrapper, Black Dragon, quite impressed by these posts!
(And that's saying something!)
