Vincent de Valmont: Furry Liaisons

Share

Vincent de(of) Valmont is the name of the red panda that is hiding behind the tree and beckons you to follow him for the next 6 months. At least hoping you will remain aware of him for that time, as he finds himself in several misadventures in which of course only an animal could survive.


Les Liaisons Dangereuses by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos was, (first published in four volumes by Durand Neveu from March 23, 1782.) ,one of my many favorite classics and the viscount of Valmont was one of my most favorite characters, that and the widow of course. I am sure that is why Pierre wrote the story. He wanted you to like the characters, sit in their positions and despite whatever conventions you may have had for unlovely things, these two were to remain lovely to you. For me they have. The Viscount is the only character reference I am making from the story mind you, can't be too greedy and start giving furry avatars to every character: I am sure you all can do that on your own time. I just wanted to borrow the viscount's nature as a man and apply it readily at times to my charming friend here: Vincent.


This page will serve as the cover art for the next segments to follow, featuring Vincent as he takes a long walk to the heart of the woods and finds....wonderful...goodies waiting for him.

Viscount, interesting, the second time I ever hear that word is here, first time being in a manga I just started reading: Black Butler. Good manga too.

I think I'd have taken this for a larger dog rather than a red panda if the description didn't say otherwise, but solid design, even if the forms all come together in a way that they almost get difficult to distinguish between, tail and leg and all. Chest's almost like an extra face btw. :)

Also feel the speech bubble text could've been a bit more optimized to the bubble - some of it's crammed together a bit. But still readable, and definitely more fitting than a standard font. Keep it up!

I do see the second face you were talking about. LOL that is pretty funny. I have seen better renditions of a red panda than the one I decided to make and I can see the wolf-dog thing too..that is what I get for not fluffing him out a bit of making the ears kind of pull back. More white around the collar or something. But when you look at a real red panda it could be a confused for a raccoon, large fox, dog-cat.
I want to check out Black Butler: Sounds good. Viscount idea will come into focus later..I will be sure to go more into depth into that and why I chose it. I had thought about optimizing the bubble but felt it would have felt 'unfinished,' when compared to the rest of the line work in the image. As far as the stickers..no word bubbles..unless I have him saying something extremely rude.

nice art
