Fox Connection

Description

This picture features my red fox OCs Silvia (above) and Byron (below).  While Silvia's coat is the common red fox color morph, Byron exhibits the cross fox pattern.  These foxes, present-day persons who become their respective fursonas, belong to the story I'm writing.  This conceptual artwork explores themes relating to who these characters are and what means the most to them.  If you're interested in learning more about their story, check out my "Transpecies" gallery folder here (foxstory.deviantart.com/galler…). I'm also looking for critique readers on my latest version of the manuscript's first act.

The outlined chemical structures (hydrogen not shown, all other elements represented by their bonds) are those of the hormones oxytocin (left) and vasopressin (right).  The central double helix is that of DNA.  The feature just to the left of the candle flame is an 8 cell embryo.  The bottom ground area uses a texture from textures.com.  In this picture, I specifically used a painterly workflow with lots of blending and most features all on the same layer.  This digital painting took about 15 hours from start to finish in Photoshop CS4.

Comments and critique are greatly appreciated.

I like the inclusion of wind turbines and solar panels behind Silvia.  Is Byron supposed to be like a Fallen Angel character or more like an Angel of Death?  Haven't read any of it yet, so apologies if my impression is way off.
