Description
For ~NewShineHer character Kri'Kahli and =cloudrunner64 's character Nalani.
Reference: [link]
As a quick note.. it's been roughly 3 years since I've drawn anything traditionally so I found myself wanting to use quite a few digital options like file>save and move object or resize etc.. it was quite interesting having to remind myself that those were not options with traditional media and then I'd just laugh at myself. None the less, working on the grey horse was very difficult for me and I'm honestly not pleased with how it turned out. I hope that ~NewShine can forgive it's many flaws however.

Three years, and you can still crank something like this out?! You should be SOOOO proud of yourself!
I bet your hand was killing you though, being so out of practice and all!

I had to take a lot of breaks to prevent my carpal tunnel from flaring up. But it was a lot like riding a bike.. you get back on and just ride.. I just had to remember that I couldn't do the things I was used to with digital work.

I think you did a great job with their coats, too. Both of them are really challenging to get traditionally so I think you did a great job there. :3 Go you! Thank you! Now I shall go sit on Shiny for doing this. xD

I had a lot of fun working with Nalani's orange since it's such a vibrant color and it's not one I've worked with much before. Kri's was very challenging for me though since grey is a color I've usually tried to avoid and I feel this really shows it, I wish I could have done a better job.

I hate changing back to traditional after using digital for a while too! I think it looks great regardless of the media-change
