Description
A borzoi asks a harpy for directions -[EDIT] Finished all the details and made this more presentable haha Thanks for all the love guys; I didn't think this would get so much attention XD [/EDIT]
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Couldn't sleep; so I painted a pic C:
About 3 hours in CS3 - random reference pics were used for both, but mostly for fur direction etc
Inspired by this beautiful piece here ; i loved the isolation and overcast fog is my favorite weather

Nice, very nice. I've got to ask though, is this borzoi the dog breed or borzoi, some kind of supernatural creature I'm unaware of?

I love this, it's so moody and beautiful. Just makes me think of lonely marshes and echoing bird calls and hidden splashes of things unseen in the waters... Oooh, I can almost feel the mist on mah face!
