This is a commissioned piece that I did in 2006. I took photos as I worked, keeping the customer informed of my progress. I'm combinign the WIP photos taken for the client so you can follow the progress as a tutorial. The portrait of Orion and Yuki is an example of how I combine photos. I have included the reference photos used, step by step drawing instructions and a little about taking photos of animals.
Although I had many to refer to...the three photos below were the main reference photos used for this drawing.
