Well then I guess this is somewhat of a momentous occasion for myself and my art dabbling: my first (albeit slightly overdue) request, from none other than the squeaky and excitable, yet kind and supportive Volt Ashkore. Volt's original request was: "Can you draw us both inflating each other?" Anyone whose ever glanced past my userpage probably could tell you it takes little provocation to have me draw squeaky dragons; however, considering Volt's constant support through all my arty dabblings, I feel a bit giftart is somewhat overdue.

Now that original request premise was fine on its own, but it immediately brought to mind a favorite squeaky theme: the "pump-off" (or inflate-off) - a no-holds barred inflation extravaganza between two contestants; the winner is the one to keep pumping the longest! Of course matches sometimes proceed until one contestant drops their pump or can no longer use it, until one contestant yields (squeaks-out?) or of course, until one goes bang!

While Volt toyed about with inflation before, I think his overconfidence got the best of him when he challenged a master of squeaky inflation. Things began promising enough - with both dragons quickly bloating up - but it would not be long before the contest proved one-sided. No longer able to bend his legs, let alone reach Zael's pump, the contest ended quickly...but Zael wasn't ready to call it quits until his friend learned a lesson!

If other peeps are interested in requests, maybe shoot me a note. I don't plan to do too many (still very time consuming), but a fun idea is always great practice. Otherwise comments and constructive feedback are always appreciated!
