WAIT ISN’T THIS ONE OF THOSE THINGS WHERE MAMA TIGERS PRETEND TO GET SCARED BY THEIR BABIES TO TEACH THEIR BABIES HOW TO HUNT AND GIVE THEM CONFIDENCE
Like you can see Mama Tiger has her ears pointed back to where Baby is so clearly she knows her baby’s back there and is listening in that direction
GOD THIS IS SO CUTE

SUCH A FEROCIOUS SMOL
I love how the cub jolts a little when mom overreacts, as if thinking “Shit, are you ok??”
show of hands!!!
yep! I blame you entirely. They’re amazing.

Loreena McKennitt is awesome! Do you know Corvus Corax? Less ballad-y and more medieval-y but similar feel 🙂
ooh – I do not know them, but I’ll put them on my “to listen” list!

‘Warring on Paper” (Commission)
If you’re wondering where I disappeared to in the last couple of weeks, I’ve been working on this painting commission between several wildfires. It depicts a fictitious naval battle in the early 1800s between the USS Ohio, HMS Prussianti, HMS Duke of Kent, and La Vestale. The Duke of Kent and the Prussianti–listed as an unnamed 160-gun ship of the line–were drafted by the British navy but never built, so for this painting I had the interesting task of studying both the drawings and other contemporary ships of the line to flesh out their details. The client was especially helpful in providing the plans, models, diagrams, and other historical information to help this painting take shape.
As of 12/19/17 I am still currently closed for commissions so that I can
work through my queue, so follow or check back often to find out when I
will reopen for a new commission batch! Critters, portraits, machines
& more will be available.More info available at wings-and-strings.tumblr.com/commissions;
Inquiries can be sent to WingsAndStringsCommissions@gmail.com
