Description heyo guys!!

This was a super long overdue picture ;-; I'm so sorry Ribera I didn't mean to take forever to draw it. Life get's busy I guess, but its finally done!! I hope Rib looks right proportionally the tail area was definitely the hardest to sketch properly to make look right. 

I finally built up the courage to ask if I could do some fan art of Ribera a long while ago; I was really intimidated and worried in case he said no but thought I'd give it at least a shot to ask finally. Ribera was definitely one of my inspirations growing up as a digital artist the past few years, I was always in awe of each pic I saw come out and always wanted to draw Rib but never thought I'd ever do the character justice. But I've grown a lot as an artist and I think now was a great time to finally ask and try my hand at him! The background was the cause of the delay, I really couldn't think of anything that seemed appropriate to the scene but my friend CavemanBoo said something like a meet and greet like at comicon and it just seem perfect for the scene. 

Set the scene: Orcis decides that if he get's in a little early he might be able to score himself a quick signature as he's never been to a convention before and was really worried of missing out!!

I'm overall happy I finally got it done and got to draw Rib he was a lot of fun to test my skill at (especially them legs ;-; so much erasing haha)!!! Hope you guys like it too!

Wow!

First, i must apologize for not commenting on this earlier. I haven't been on dA for ages, so i'm sorry for missing this! >_<

Thank you so much! This made my day! Your coloring is so smooth and soft. You also utilize textures really well. (that is something i need to get bettar at)
Your character is pretty cool i must say. Maybe i could draw him sometime if that's alright with you?

Again, thank you so much for this. This really put a smile to my face.

Ah it's okay man I figured since you've been going through a lot of stuff, you might not even be back for a long time. I'm more sorry that I didn't finish it much much earlier than when I had asked your permission.

Wow that does mean a lot, thanx for the critique I really really appreciate those kind words from you (eh you manage to draw amazing pics anyways!!!). I wanted to draw it for ya, since well you've been feeling a little down (plus always wanted to try draw Rib he's so cool!! xD). I'm glad it brightened your day up a little.

I would be so freaking honored if you if decided to draw Orcis. There's absolutely no way I could say no, to someone who I've always looked up to and inspired me to draw digitally. So thank you for all you've done, even though you may not think it's much it certainly pushed me to try be slightly as good as you.

It's no problem at all, I'm very glad you liked it! As do your pictures when I see them too!!
