Exploring Tiger Lands

How useless. How worthless. You say there cannot be peace? You have too little faith in man.

Your name

Awesome! I love these looks into the past and other cultures. I wonder what the swirly crystal holders are? maby a symbol of high status?

Lexio

She could be less clothed, Imo~

Duster

Sweet goodness gracious Tom you knocked this out of the park! The attention to detail in every facet of this picture-the lighting, the humans, the tigress, the background-each and every one is dripping with personality and splendor. Excellent work dude!

Conrad Sarto

Looks amazing!

Richy Dash

This was beautiful before the coloring. Now it is beyond beautiful.

Dragonlicious

Reminds me of the Lewis and Clark expedition.

Fire Flight

My trouble is, how do you date a tiger Keidran; we know from Flora that they are *also* gouge-us and gorge-'em!? (Or at least, they prefer raw meat.) / "Things that Tom inspires me to think of."

Torbjörn Larsson

So ... much ... color ... / The regional heatwave has bleached everything else, too!

Torbjörn Larsson

That is not considered a fair question I think (but I could be wrong) since it is the artist/suggestion mark. It is like asking da Vinci if he could paint a Mona Lisa without adding his name on (and then it would be anonymous and cheap).

Torbjörn Larsson

The background <3 Good job with the humans! And she is gorgeous! One of your best yet.

Ordithus

Oh my, imagine if she is, and is where Flora's "Human fascination" (shall we say) comes from?

steelabjur

I wonder which of these two will end up staying with the tigers? (Because didn't there used to be three until one stayed with the snow leopards?)

McClaw

Tigers are carnivorous predators. She's probably wearing the fur of an actual animal, not another keidran. Also notice the feathers around the shoulders of her cloak.

Travis9x

Clever. Maybe there's a reason why she's their guide

Quite Possibly a Sombrero

I like you. Make more words.

Quite Possibly a Sombrero

Now to wait for more sketch requests of these three in the "Tiger Lands Chronicles", and hopefully in similar vein to the Snow Leopard Town and Alternate Future Therie & Daniels or even the Cat-Nora Saga.

Customaera

It begins always with explorers ; then armies comes later and claims the land for themselves . Finishes by destruction and slavery for anthros ...............

Panther

I always love the color art Tom completes. They’re always so detailed and beautiful.

DarthKeidran

So she’s about to enter heat you say. I’m sure those two will be fine. It’s not like anyone died from Snu-Snu enacted by a single individual, though if they enter that town…

DarthKeidran

Siri: getting directions to Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood (I’m a Mac, and while Apple Maps are improving, direction wise, google is still currently marginally better, though, Apple is catching up fast.

DarthKeidran

She kinda looks like Flora's mother maybe she is Flora's ancestor

katadom

I say she’s taller then them

Trollman906

Jesus, the tiger lady looks like she'd be like 8 feet tall when standing straight up

"Okay. So if we go this way for about another day, we'll reach my village. Are you two really sure you still want to go there?" "Considering it's where all of our supplies are being kept after they were stolen in that ambush at that... rather conveniently named pass? Yes." "I mean, I'd consider it more like gently, permanently borrowed in exchange for fair passage through Tiger lands, but sure. A word of warning, though; At the pace we're going, we're likely to arrive in the village right at the height of the Spring Sowing Festival." "Spring Sowing? Sounds like fun! What could be so bad about an agricultural festival?" "Agriculture is only a small part of it. It also marks the start of mating season. It's a fertility rite, and for guests, participation is traditionally... mandatory."

Roughlandin

Just perfect! ♥️

The Sexy Beast

Something's really messing with my head with this image and I cannot for the life of me figure out if the tiger would be shorter or taller than the explorers if they were all standing at their full height. It's really bothering me.

Patrick Johnson

I second that! Short comics portraying the everyday lives of various Keidran cultures would be extremely fun to watch.

Iago24

Request for Tom, can we get a higher res copy of this image without the text at the bottom for backgrounds? Please.

Neverborn

It would be so amazing if Tom would create a side comic about these three intrepid explorers! It could take place not long after humans arrived on the continent and give background on early human/keidran interactions. We might get to see why they don’t often get along and provide in general a great story to read.

Galadhrim

What to say ? Just PERFECT !!!!

Martin

Beautiful

Wolf guy

The best color art in the last few months! Great work!

Ellarihan

Super

Jirka Suchy

Ahhhhhhh it’s so FREAKING GOOOOOOOD!!!!

metalman20

It is such a good picture this....Aaaaaaand saved!

CrimsonQuill086

I concur. You can tell in both the sketch and ink phases that Tom put a significant amount of effort into this piece.

noxamillion

Tiger Land is known as "The Happiest Place On Earth".

SCD

What do you mean? You disagree on this sketch getting colored?

noxamillion

It is fitting that the <b>objectively</b> best sketch of July gets first place in the color vote. Things are just here.

noxamillion

They're trying to find the ruins of La-Mulana.

SCD

So that thing over her chest... could she be straight up wearing another person?

ChampionOfBagels

So colorful! <3

Natani Wolf

Oh my... It's gorgeous

AstroChaos

The colors are just purrfect!

Leonard Browntail

*Google*: So you want to go to Tiger Land? Me: YES!

I'm completely out of step with the Twokinds community on this choice.

MoppyPuppy

HOLY S**T IT SO MUCH BETTER!

Wow this actually looks beautiful now that its colored.
