Holy crap! I'm in love with all of them, but that pigeon just blows my mind!

[moonvoice]

I drew it because I saw a pair on the corner of the street behind us the other day. They are SO amazing looking.

[ariestess]

I am in love with these, pretty much in the order you posted them here. How colorful!

[moonvoice]

Hee, thank you! :D

[shatterpath]

Your backgrounds are, as always, spectacular. The colors of teh creatures are marvelous too!

[moonvoice]

Thank you so much! :D

[white_rabbit]

Oh, MY. I still love Koi, but coloured, Crested Pigeon is just so very striking to me right now. :D

[moonvoice]

Crested pigeons are amazeballs, it is true.

Wow!

[ysabetwordsmith]

It looks like you juiced a rainbow to make these. I am yet again in awe.

Re: Wow!

[moonvoice]

I had a lot of fun colouring these! :D

[silverjackal]

I could bask in the koi's blues. :) (Really -- the day just went spectacularly pear shaped on me, and it's a serious problem that needs to be addressed at work. But I look at your koi and feel better.) I also really like the background for the wallaby, and those fuzzy ears are particularly charming!

[moonvoice]

I knew how the Koi would look as I did it, and pretty much hung onto that the whole way through, and am so happy with the final product. :D

I'm sorry to hear your day went so pear-shaped at work though. When there's already so much stress in other areas too! Wishing you much luck there and that things go as smoothly as possible (especially where previously they haven't!)

[silverjackal]

Thanks! :)

Unfortunately nothing will be resolved quickly or easily, but I'm trying to not let it gnaw at me. In the bigger picture, it's not such a big deal. Particularly when there are lovely Koi to look at.

[amalnahurriyeh]

ZOMG. The koi. I love him!

[moonvoice]

Koi are win! :D

[sidheblessed]

I am in love with the koi! It's so bright and just feels so koi. Love love love it.

[moonvoice]

Hee thank you! The koi loves you too. :D

[lupagreenwolf]

Holy COW! The colors on all three of these really pop! I think I love the koi the most, though it's damned hard to choose. How do you choose your favorites?

[moonvoice]

I go by feel, usually, it's a pretty organic process. Though I'm a sucker for certain colours, like blue-based reds (which are heavily used in the Crested Pigeon; and that Red Riding Hood icon!)

[snowynight]

They're all beautiful. It's hard to choose.

[moonvoice]

Thank you. I'm glad you like them. :)

[paleo]

Wow. I'm rather dumbstruck at how amazing all three are. Looking at the Koi, I can hear the gentle lapping of my grandmother's koi pond which is making me tear up just a bit, but it's a happy bittersweet feeling.

[moonvoice]

Aw, that's awesome about the connection you feel to koi. They are such amazing, graceful fishies.

[gone_fishing]

Oh, wow. *loves*

[moonvoice]

Thank you! :D

[elialshadowpine]

Oh wow! Those are beautiful. I love them all but the pigeon is especially gorgeous. I love the color. It is vibrant and just *pops*.

[outlineofash]

The colors for Koi... wow! I can't stop staring. I feel like I could swim in those blues... :D

[gemfyre]

Mernine! :) :) :)

[burningbright]

Feeeeeeesh! :D

The other two are awesome as well, but that fish!!! With his whiskers and bright vivid colors and shiiiiny scales.
