Description
ThunderstormBuilding in tempo
Cymbals crash in crescendo
Quiet then applause
Dark sky dropping low
Garish light flashing within
Rumble dies away
Black bodies of cloud
Pierced by swords of purest light
Bellowing their strength
~Haiku by an unknown author.
I really let loose and belted my freaky colors out there! And I loved it!
Here, the god of lightning (the dragon) and the god of thunder (the wolf) are locked in their never-ending combat in the clouds. It is said that claps of thunder and bolts of lighting are the result of these two gods battling it out in the sky. This little mytho is my own concept, just for fun.

OH GOSH Matt? XD
Aww he's such a sweetheart, but I think he has some sort of social disorder? I don;t know if he can help it~ he's very bright and kind though!
He was in my ENV class two semesters ago.

Jade seems really cool albeit a little shy. I assume you and her are old friends, correct?

Oh yeah, LOL I've known her since 8th grade!! We hang out all the time, she's like. my sister. XD
But yeah she's kinda shy sometimes, so it's good she has my bouncy assertiveness to even things out.

This is beautiful. The clouds in the background remind me of clouds around sunset after a thunderstorm.
I hope that doesn't sound too weird.

So interesting, that you should use dragon and wolf... though in the legends I know, the wolf is the companion of the dragon. *smiles*

I need to get more textures, these are incredible 
I love it, (a-duh.)

I find it's not so much what textures you use, but HOW you use them; it takes a long time to get used to relaxing, and trying to get that traditional look in a digital setting; but it's worth it!
Thank you!
