Artist's Comments

The best photo I managed to take of it. Had to crop it a little, too.
This is from June 2007, and it was my final etching project in the previous school year. Didn't know much about anteater anatomy back then :D

I think this is my favourite piece I ever did in the traditional printing class. Far from being perfect but it was the first plate where I actually experimented with other techniques as well.

Good times.

Daily DeviationThe suggester certainly had a lot to say about ~riftryu's expressive mating season, and with good reason. "It shows so much movement, an amazing perspective and absolutely stunning details. There is a lot of skill, concentration and patience needed to create a piece such as this! One can see the amazing difference between foreground and background, it is so utterly unique and neatly done." (Suggested by *AlectorFencer and Featured by ^oilsoaked)

Peachy keen!
:aww:
This is awesome for an etch! Good impressions of the sky and the rotary motion! You wield gradations well.
The white blotches puzzle me a bit, but I perhaps those rotating things aren't balls but fire baskets or something? Looks cool anyway.

The anteaters suffer from melding with the totempole at various places, and the pole looks flat and its perspective is off in the middle part.
Woah! What an amazing drawing! I can't describe how amazing I find this picture and how powerful and strong you made everything. The perspective is stunning too.

Die Manie ist ein seelischer Zustand, in dem der Unterschied zwischen Idealbild und Ich aufgehoben scheint.
It looks more like a race of anteater people than just straight-up anteaters, which, in my opinion, makes this stronger piece, since the female almost looks magical with those whirling things of light on the sides. You should think about doing concept art!
