Commissioned portrait from Baxil of his character, Hessus, a tiger therianthrope in the Tomorrowlands stories.

I didn't know who the character really was when I painted this, not even his name (it was finished so quickly- it was one of those pictures that just falls out and there it is) but as I found out afterwards, the picture fit Hessus perfectly, in his story and in that particular moment Hessus was having a very bad day. (As were the people who made it that way for him.)

Character of Hessus copyright to Tad "Baxil" Ramspott.

I love tigers...so naturally...it's an automatic for this picture.
I like how you blended the tiger's form with the fire...
Try to add some smoke to the background and don't have EVERYTHING on fire. Fire doesn't exist without smoke. Also, things burn faster than others...such as grass compared to a tree. So maybe have some areas of burnt ground rather than complete flame.
Of course these are just suggestions...but I love what you have here as it is. Awesome job!!!
