.:EDIT:.

edited the water ^^ much better now, although when trying to get the reflections right it kept fucking up >>

This is my half of an art trade with karrawong on deviantart she asked for her character flora ^^ hope you like it

i resketched the original sketch i did because i wasn't feelin' it XD then i had this idea in my head a while ago and though to myself "i wont be able to pull that off" but after i sketched it out i was like 0.o "huh? this might actually be possible XD" so yeah ^^

after spending like 6hrs on the mountains i then struggled with the clouds x.x simplest thing ever... dont judge me XD i couldn't get the colours right XD hehe

Originally the character's wing was going to be in the water gliding across but~ my drawing experience when it comes to water failed me and i couldn't work out how to make it look decent XD so~ i left it out ^^; i may edit later on though =P IF i work out how to do it.

ALSO!! im re-established my old shading style XD i didn't like having to draw a fur guide every time but i didn't want to spend ages on it XD thus this one was born ^^ the fur's still there and it looks AWESOME!! :D

I also used no ref for this ^^ i glanced at photos of lakes, mountains and clouds though ^^ n some pictures of wolves to get the back feet right
