AHHHHHH this felt so good to draw, I had fun. xD I'm trying to beat the crap out of my art block by drawing something kinda loose and colorful without dwelling on details so much, though this still does have some details of course, especially in the foreground, because it just doesn't feel right if I don't put detail in. My main focus on this was [extreme?] lighting and color balance however. There are still plenty of things in this that I could probably touch up on, but this was mainly done for fun and to try to break out of an art block, so after working on it all day off and on, I'm at the point where I can call it done, or just about done in case I decide to go back and refine anything. It's way past bedtime anyways, and we have to get up early tomorrow for easter, so I probably just screwed myself over by staying up so late, buuuut. I like how this came out so it's not all bad. xD

For those of you that don't know, these are my characters, Rook (foreground) and Flasiere (background). I wouldn't be surprised if most of you didn't know them since I haven't drawn Rook in forever, and this is the first picture of Flasiere I've submitted other than her ref and a character compilation... which was a long time ago.
So yeah, Rook caught a fish, and as he looks up he sees Flasiere approaching the lake he's in. I'll leave the rest to your imagination. P: (But no, they're not going to fight or anything, neither one of these characters are very aggressive, if anything it'd be more caution from meeting for the first time or something c: )

I was kinda inspired by *griffsnuff and the way she uses color in her pics when I made this, though I didn't refer to her pics while drawing this, it was more in the back of my head if anything xD
I didn't use any refs for this picture actually o-o Sometimes I like just working from my head to see what I know.

This was my first time trying a serious pic with corel painter too, I didn't have it on this computer for the longest time and not long ago I finally found the CD to install it. I like it. ouo I find the brushes more... balanced than SAI, though for the majority of this picture I had to have the opacity way down low to about 1 or 2, and then keep building from there. I think I may do more pictures like this. :3

...Dangit I'm so tired that I'm rambling :I I'd better wrap this up before this ends up too long... or am I too late? Dx
