Tis the mighty & affectionate Boa Constrictor.
Wasn't sure if I should put in more time on this one, but in retrospect, I'm glad I did.

Looks good Ken. It looks a lot better with the shadows and reflections.
Agree with Mark, love the shadow and reflections!
The shading and highlights help a ton... it was a nice drawing to start with, but it looks great in the second version. Nice stuff, Ken. But he's lucky I don't have my shovel.
Very nice characterization! Cool drawing, Ken.
Thanks for your comments guys! Glad I took the time to make the revision. Shane, I forgot you're like the Terminator of all snake life. Hope he's cunning... er... smart enough to avoid your personal space.
Good stuff! both are really nice, so i choose not to choose one over the other :)
Man what cool art work. I really like how you showed the two versions. Thanks for sharing
oooo great colors and character Ken. The extra time poped it out nicely!
ya dito!! the coloring looks excellent!!
Nice! I think either version holds up on it's own, but the rendering you did on the second one is impressive.
Hey Ken,
Thanks for stopping by:)
Great coloring on this one and the Space Pirate is awesome! Love the design and the coloring is top notch too.
Great job.
Hans
N...i...c...e !!!
I'm not an artist. . .but I love the snake--my spouse has a boa he keeps in his science classroom. . .I don't care for snakes at all, but I liked the one you drew.
R--
Great to hear from you guys; thanks for coming around. It's always good to hear that my work doesn't suck as badly as I suspect it might. :)
Anne Onymous... cool name! The thought of owning any pet that can beat me in a wrestling match makes me think twice about bringing it into my house.
Stay cool everyone. August is upon us!
Your boa has such a friendly way about him. I think I'll curl up with him on the front porch for a nice Sunday afternoon naaaaaaaarrrrrggggghhhhhhMMMMPPPPHHHHHH!!!!!.........
Beautiful Artworks!
That's real cool! I like it.
It looks awesome! Love the highlights ~ I love all reptiles, so, even better! ;)
Thanks for the comments on my bloggity blog too! You're the sweetest! ;)
wow wow! Nice blog full of art! I really like your style.
I definitly think the highlights help, but I have to admit, cel shading also looks good
Hey Ken, thanks for the comment! I like your illustration style. And your coloring definitely puts mine to shame, keep doing what you're doing, dude!
I enjoy the highlights as well.
Thanks for all your comments guys! It's great to hear from you. Seeing your icons reminds me I need to go back and see what you guys have been working on-- so much art, so little time.
I just absolutely love your coloring.. great work!
