I know anthro art gets a bum rap in the pony fandom, but DCL is such an amazing artist!
He created this picture for me and I gotta say, if you guys want to ask him for commissions, he WILL get you your money worth.
It should be kept in mind, he's frequently porny, but he can do more reserved stuff on request. His Tumblr is NSFW.

Likely because a good chunk of it is either porny or so outrageously proportioned that it doubles as subliminal advertising for the National Chiropractic Association (I feel my back twinging in sympathy after taking a quick shufti through the Tumblr and seeing some of the "unreserved" works. Ouch!)
That being said, I really like how DCL captured Taxi's likeness, especially her eyes! Quite arresting. Her quietly amused, "you think you're all that but I know how to cripple you with a teacozy and my toe" half-smirk is a nice touch as well.
Ooooh. Nice.
2476255 Its very nice to see this kind of art, anthro art as a general rule, yeah, its got more letters than the alphabet wants to admit at times for some things.. But overall, so many good artists get buried under that stigma.

?
Not quite sure how to parse that...
I certainly agree there. One of my most favourite MLP artists is best known for her anthro work.
2476387 The kinder way of saying that may artist draw the anthro ladies well beyond, what gravity and spines could ever dream of holding.
2476391 Im still pretty guilty of that. rather blatantly even. A crime im not even ashamed of.
still, i try VERY hard to be a artist above the dime a dozen in regards to detail and effort, it still hurts me when ever I have to think that my work gets passed up purely for its content, though i wont pretend that my quality of work demands any special treatment...
....yet
2476426 Compared to what is out there, you are fine, really. But thanks for keeping up the amazing artwork, seriously. I could heap more praise on you, but rather, im going to wish you a great night, and good week too.

fuck anyone who doesn't love anthro
the art work is amazing, and i do like good anthro, your's tops many i had seen
Anthro is hit-or-miss, I think, but I'd call this one a hit, if only for the eyes.
THEY'RE LOOKING AT ME.
I like the eyes, they're very well done.
Personally, I don't really like anthro. Just make them a human already if that's what you want.
