Someone New Has Arrived [WIP]

My first post is my first WIP I'm sharing with you guys, for everyone apart of the paw, tuft and nub club's! :P  A SUPER detailed commission for Kodalynx on FA that I honestly can't wait to finish up! I don't draw too many crazy illustrative pieces with backgrounds and all, but I love when I get the opportunity to do so! Allows me to experiment and gets me out of my comfort zone. My goal with this piece is to make the background it's own character as well. I want to bring it to life while also putting the two characters in the spotlight as well. 

More WIPs to come! I have two other commissions left to do for August, so those WIPs will be posted tomorrow, and the finished pieces to come after (posted on here and my main galleries) 

EDIT: Oh geez, rumaging around on my work computer, and forgot about these images too! So for those who haven't commissioned me before, I tend to send off 2-4 different variations of poses for the client to choose from, that is later taken to be cleaned up. I really like giving as much variety as possible..even if they have requested a specific pose, i'll still give them a few different variants of that pose to choose from.

Koda wanted these guys specifically looking at the viewer, as if the viewer has just wandered into the scene and caught them washing up in a private oasis. The pose the character on the right of 'A' is a pose Koda had suggested, so I made sure to include that one, while also adding other variants of that characters posing in the other two WIPs. As a result we concluded with combining poses from two different WIPs, which was posted earlier on. Sorry for forgetting that, guys! Didn't want to make a new post for just these either, so hopefully you guys are notified that this ones been edited to include these images!
