Welcome to the Art Of The Paw And Fang!


Established as a club on March 8th, 2004. Our focus is on being a community where Advanced, experienced and gifted artists share quality wolf artwork. What do we mean by quality? It might sound unfair, but you have to submit work that has obvious noticeable effort and ability, we will be picking up on things like Anatomy, Golden Sections, Quality of lines, Backgrounds and over all feel.
Why do we have this?So that watching our group means each deviation will be something worth viewing. Joining our group means you have the confidence and talent to meet our goals. If you think your good enough, you're encouraged to join!

JOINING
:bulletgreen: 1. In your request, give us the links to 3 pieces that are representative of your work. Choose carefully and follow the standards for submitted work below.
:bulletgreen: 2. Wait for group acceptance. Sometimes our Alphas can take a few days to make a decision. Upon acceptance you may place our icon in your Deviant Journal if you wish.
:bulletgreen: 3. Member artwork submissions are also subject to Alpha scrutiny.

WE DO NOT ACCEPT:
:bulletblue: 1. Notebook "I did this in math class" doodles; WHY? Because if you don't care enough to place your work on decent white paper, then why should viewers take the time to look at it. Notebook lines take away from the quality of the image and render it base. For more commentary on notebook doodles, look at the journal of ~Keyoyia at [link] . I think most would find it helpful.
:bulletblue: 2. Messy Sketches; WHY? Because this is a gallery geared towards more finished work. Graphite works are more than welcome, as are inks that will be colored at a later date because they have the look of being finished and are interesting enough as they are to be artwork on their own.
:bulletgreen: 3. Admins reserve the right to decline posting artwork that they feel is not suitable or finished enough to be posted. Hopefully this will give all of us the incentive to do our best and give wolves the beautiful representation such magnificent creatures deserve.

SUBMISSION STANDARDS: Deviant Art Rules Apply:
:bulletblue: 1. Submissions must be your work.
:bulletblue: 2. We accept wolves, wolf-like dogs such as huskies malamutes and other Nordic breeds, coyotes wild breeds and mixes of all of these are welcome. Anthros, weres, and feral morphs are also all welcome. Hybrids should contain noticeable wolf anatomy. Alphas can decide acceptance on a case by case basis.
:bulletblue: 3. Gore is welcome (if your 18 or over).
:bulletblue: 4. Nudity is welcome (if your 18 or over).
:bulletblue: 5. Hate pieces and or slander of views beliefs or others are not welcome and will be screened out. Art may not "bash" any religion, race or sexual preference. Take yours squabbles elsewhere. Alphas have full authority to decline anything they deem necessary to maintain group harmony.
:bulletblue: 6. Fan Art of characters is welcome (Balto, White Fang, etc.) as long as you credit your sources per Deviant Art rules. Copyright laws will be upheld. Document all inspirations correctly.
:bulletblue: 7. Photography is not allowed. It may be art but it is not the artwork themed in this club. By and large we do not accept photo-manipulation, unless its digital or tradionally created work blended into a photographed background. You must show some effort with this, don't just slap your drawing on a photo.
:bulletblue: 8. Literature and poetry is not allowed. Although poetry can be beautiful and art as well, this is a visually based art club. There are many other poetry themed clubs out there. But if you have artwork with poetry on it, or in its description, that is allowed.
:bulletblue: 9. Limit your submissions to 1 or 2 at a time. Why? We promote quality over quantity and less is more. Consider what the watchers want to see.
:bulletblue: 10. Submit Line-Art to the Character Sheets, Tutorials, Comics and Misc Folder. For further on folders see our journal entry: [link] Icons may also be submitted to the MISC folder, however, substantial effort must be evident.
:bulletred: Our Alphas retain the right to decline any submission or membership application when it is deemed in the benefit of the club to do so. Submissions or members that portray the club or the subject matter of the club ( I.E. wolves ) in denigration and besmirchment will be dealt with accordingly.

I am best at drawing:
-wolves
-dragons
-my little ponies

I can draw other things, and anything similar to those. I've tried furries and they don't usually turn out the best but I can always try. I will draw mature content if you like. My little ponies are better in my digital art which I'm not doing commissions of at the moment. I'd like to get some more practice. 

I cannot draw humans :( sorry




Approximate prices (just colored pencils, no paints yet)

Coloured
-Regular full body drawing, no background 50 pts

-full body drawing with simple one colour background 60 pts

-full body full background 100pts





Sketch
-full body no background 20 pts

-full body with background 40 pts





Extras
Wings or any other large accessories or details 5 pts

Extra character 20 pts





Sorry some of the examples aren't the best but it's the best I've got for now. 

Note me and we can work out a price. I will have it done as soon as possible. I don't plan on actually shipping the art but if you want me to I can and it will be extra points. I expect the payment before I start the drawing.  I would prefer a picture reference and possibly the pose you would like. Please try to spread the word about me. It would be greatly appreciated.

Two questions, will you take arctic foxes? Will you take anthro art? Just needed to ask. The best of where my level is at fit into those categories along with one with my wolf fursona.
Reply
:iconcolliwolf:
we take anthro, as far as foxes are concerned I suspect it's more along the lines of a case by case basis.

Not to sound nebulous, but sometimes the lines blur. Take for example maned wolves as they can resemble red foxes especially in art.

Um are German Shepards ok? They are sorta wolf like, but I thought it was best to ask :)
Reply
:iconcolliwolf:
I would have to see them. We take Nordic Breads and hybrids if they are noticeably wolf. A rule of thumb might be a German Shepherd / Wolf Hybrid should be 51% wolf. But in any case, your better requesting membership and placing your submissions in the text of your acceptance message.
