Description Sparks seem to fly as the wolf with the silken fur glides through the grass, letting the moon light her path. While running through a brief clearing, she feels a sense of elation when considering all that she has accomplished in the past few sunrises.
Dapadel breaks from her trance- like state to see little glimmers of light bouncing around her fur, reminding her of that one, lonely night....



Dapadel is one of my OC's that I haven't drawn yet. She is an ancient wolf, however she is still very alive and well for her age. Her shady history gives her a very bubbly personality on the outside, however she is really a rather secretive and anti- social character. In this picture, she is on her way back to her mate Strongwind after a long journey to a place she considers her fortress. Dapadel doesn't feel like elaborating on the details of her journey too much; she prefers to keep a lot of the things she does under wraps.

Well, I enjoyed doing this photomanip the most out of all of the ones I've done. The little sparkles around her legs and swirling around her & the constellation of her in the sky were extremely fun to do, and I feel like they add a little pizzazz Although this photomanipulation is probably one of the manips with the lesser layers, I feel like I did a whole lot more editing than I usually do.



GIMP 2.6 let me create this photo!
I had around 25 layers, and it took me around 15 hours (not all at once)
The Sky and Moon is from *venomxbaby , as well as the grass

Ikrr!!! Now, I take iron supplements and my mom feeds me a lot more spinach and stuff to help boost my immune system, so I'm getting better slowly!
But I'm kinda scared because my mom has Polycistic Ovarian Syndrome, and its hereditary

Yes! She is a personal fitness trainer for a living, so she keeps her symptoms at bay. And she is a vegan

Alright! That sounds better!
Try not to worry about getting it then, don't worry about what could be. Worry about what is (at least in this situation)
Concentrate on getting better and let God take care of the rest

On a less-deep note, I've been wanting to ask you if you still plan on trying to do some writing for your OC's?
