Painting of Ninetales that I did to practice painting in greyscale. I then made the normal version and the shiny version using the overlay layer settings. Here is the shiny version! I think I prefer to paint directly in color, but this was a fun exercise nonetheless. Gives you more options sometimes. More fur experiment again as well, still trying to nail down something I like.
Ninetales is my favorite Pokemon, btw.
Normal version: link coming soon
