Ria is a harmless looking little thing, well under four feet tall and cute in a raccoonish way. Since she's little more than an enormously expandable stomach with legs, though, she's not harmless at all, and quite a few males get a lot more than they bargain for when they meet her. She has the ability to expand her body, which looks as though she's being inflated. It's actually the other way around: the expansion creates a powerful suction and if you are too close to any of her three major bodily openings this can happen to you, too. She is a rarity among my preds in that she can eat creatures much larger than she is, though it takes her a -very- long time to digest such large meals.

Color version of a 2003 pencil pic. I was going to color an UB pic also featuring Ria, but I got distracted by Second Life, so we get the quicker one to color. 83

Remember when I suggested a drawing yesterday? This one would have been my second suggestion.

Ria is one of my favorite characters of yours (right next to IT) - she cute, small and obviously harmless, very charming and a real seductress. Because she does not speak a common language (other than racoonish) the force of her obvious and direct suggestions to mate do hit you directly like a hammer. Instinct versus intellect - I just love it when intellect looses.

It is only too late when you realize WHY she was so eager to drag you away to a more private place.

Could you tell a little more about that new coloring technique of yours?

What I found was that by using a "multiply" layer on top of the existing pencils I could color right over them. Further layers on top of this, either Soft Light, Overlay or Normal, are used for highlights, shadows and detailing. I've used layers for shading for a while, but I only recently realized they could be used to color over an existing pencil drawing.

Just shows that Ria is what keeps the Praka population in check.

Along with lions, and tigers, and bears, and dragons, and....
