Description
Secret gift for Ashley and Grace.It's hard to believe it's been almost 5 years since we've met. Even though we've never seen each other in real life, you're two of my greatest friends. I
you both!Now this WAS supposed to be done for Ashley and Grace's birthday last year. I've stopped trying now...
We three have our birthdays on September so I thought it would be nice to do something with our 3 characters.
I'm not in time this year either...
Anyway, here we have my dear Polaris(the gryphon) and the awesome The Wanderer(unicorn) and Wing(wolf) who are both made of pure fantastic-ness
Though this looks simpler than my other works, it took as long to make.
And I wanted to make it simple.
The Wanderer doesn't have wings, but Polaris and Wing do, so they can give her some help flying, what are friends for?
No criticism on this one! Thank you.
I hope you both like it!

Aww Gracey, I'm so glad you like it! It's so good to see you're back! I missed you so much!
Btw I've seen your email, I just didn't have time to reply. I can send you the full size of this without the watermark if you want!
Me, the best? Nop, you must be mistaken, YOU are the best!
Geez, I really missed! I was so worried 
Just kidding of course, real life is much more important.
Anyway, You're welcome and thank you so much for both the comment and 
*luffs*
And you must have so many comments from me in your message center XD I thought it would be fun to spam your page haha.

As much as I love your watermark, that would be great!
You wouldn't mind if I printed it out and just kept in in my art folder as well, would you?
I'm sorry for making you worry! I just hope that you're doing alright now.
And yes indeed I had many comments from both you and Arc! You guys are crazy! But in a good way of course

Okay, I'll send it to you, I just won't be able to do it before Monday because I'm spending Christmas at my uncle's and I don't have the file here.

Thanks! I got the e-mail, but for some reason my e-mail isn't letting me send my reply... :/ It's been sitting in my outbox for two days so I'm going to have to bother my dad into fixing it. I just didn't want you to think I was ignoring you

Oh my gosh! This is so beautiful! Your colouring is so soft, and I love how the dark blue stands out on your gryphon character, and the markings on the wolf are also so nicely done! Oh! And the horse is awesome too, as always!!

Each character is so distinct. I love how you've outlined them, it makes them not blend into the background.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I was unsure about the outline. I didn't want to outline each of them separately, especially because my lineart work is awful, I always mess up something or things... But I like how this one worked out ^^
Thank you hun!
