First BIG pencil drawing I've done in a long time, and I have been meaning to get more into scenery. Here's the colored version done by mah lovely artbuddy 0RosesDeathRoses0 did HERE ( I’m happy I had the chance to color your beautiful piece @misplaced-aquarius Please check their work out! – @0rosesdeathroses0 on Tumblr ), go see them for the result and lots of lovely Enki and Enkivaldr art <3 Would this ship name be RagEnkiMus?

Locking in really does pay off. Rendering and lighting often spook me and I try to cell-shade more often, but doing this traditional-ish method with no blending, just colors and hues and making the middle of the picture more-or-less their light source. Also painting pallets and details I haven't gotten to with this tablet was so satisfying! (PS. I think O'saa's jacket is made of some sort of silk fabric and fur patches, very important to know for texture). I also weirdly adore how hurt Stitches looks around her cheeks, since she's actively trying to sew her mouth closed when you encounter her. It'd be more red than her scalp. Honestly I could ramble about each of them. Who's your favorite? I've got 8 expressions left and I will FINALLY have completed this challenge! :D

Ragnvaldr, and his sisters, when they were young.
