One of the other big commissions I had, this one belonging to http://www.furaffinity.net/user/rainerfenixhart

Emotional piece as he told me the story of it. I attempted to reflect that in the atmosphere with color and texture.

I haven't colored like this in a while I want to say. It is like an evolved version of my old way back when I used to draw more tauren, etc. Fur is a thing, you know. Also that armor was a beast.

Title is from the song "I Dreamed a Dream" which I ended up listening to quite a few times to get all bawl fest while working on this. Not sure how many other artists tend to do that but I want something really sad (or insert some other emotion here) i'll listen to something that pulls on the heart strings in that manner.

In any event, recollecting.

The Tauren Death Knight, Shim, having found her daughter, Xhaana, slain during a particular battle at Thunder Bluff.

My apologies if I didn't get all the details right in the description there of the scene, but I wanted to leave it loose considering it isn't my story to tell in words, just the image.

Also, I MISS MY IVORYHOOF! Tauren females are forever my favrit. The fluffs!
