Description
I just wanted to give this some closure and a happy ending!Yarifeth is new to shadow spells, and whenever she gets upset, she goes into shadowform without realizing it. But Meiles has something that should cheer her up!
I loooooove the Obsidian Hatchling, it's so cuuuuuuuute. Especially when on a leash!
Now I'm not entirely sure whether he's doing it because he's being nice, or because he loves her, or because he's not going to get any tonight if he doesn't fix the situation
This is a follow up to
and
I hate drawing backgrounds and I kinda suck at them, so I thought I'd force myself to practice today. Getting there, but still lots and lots of room for improvement. I need to buy myself a book on painting digital backgrounds!

I'm just adoring this whole little story...so super cute. <3 The background looks great as well. The shadow effect is really neat, too!

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the mini-series

I love the dark aura! I didn't suspect her to be shadow spec for one second

Haha well she was holy before she started traveling him. Which is why she still can't control her shadowform

oh noes! Mieles corrupted poor innocent Yari!

aww how sweet of him to try to cheer her up even though he might just be wanting some boinking.
Meiles and Yarifeth must be one of the cutest couples i have seen so far.
really nice job i envy your skills on making backgrounds and how you draw Meiles.
Do you use any references when you make him or do you simply have a picture of him in your head?
again brilliant job hope to see more cute and funny art about them soon.

Thank you very much! I am very pleasantly surprised that people are liking them
I used a reference the first time I drew him just to get used to the troll features, and then after that, I used references less and less until I finally drew him completely from my head. That way it evolves the way I drew him into my style instead of just a copy of how Blizzard does them.
Meiles looks butt ugly the first time I drew him since it was my first time drawing trolls! Yarifeth look bad too, because I haven't fully developed how I wanted to draw her yet at the time

Very nice
maybe you should put up those old sketches so we can see what they advanced from till now.
I think that would be fun
i love the coloring of Meiles to be honest are you using adobe photo shop or corel painter essentials on him?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Heh I didn't actually do sketches, I just dove right into a full color piece
Ew ew ew, so ugly!
I use Adobe Photoshop CS5
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oo didn't know corel had updated to 9 i only got version 3 xD
i don't think your older sketches of them were to bad but the beauty lies in the eye of the beholder
hm... are those two gonna have children at some point do you think?
i would love to see a troll/blood elf hybrid
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha I don't know! I'm personally not so sure if their species is close enough in genetic make-up to breed, and I don't think Yari is ready for motherhood. I think the couple are happy enough just keeping pets! I'm thinking their kids might just end up looking like night elves anyway, haha.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hehe true true Yari looks waay to young for kids at the moment.
i do not know either if their genetics are close but that doesn't stop me make hybrids tbh
yeah maybe like night elf with green eyes or very short trolls
How long will yari be able to keep that hatchling i wonder too.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahaha well I use incompatible genetics as a quick birth control tool
Considering the hatchling as teeth and horns and that Meiles probably gave his cat a spanking after the gnome incident, it should survive fairly long this time! ...I hope! XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol i can picture yari play with that hatchling and meiles joining in.
then seeing the cat in the background with a bubble saying resist resist resist. xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
... id still like to see yari walking down the street with a gnome on a leash...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha yeah I got a couple other people wanting to see that gnome on a leash! Maybe I'll pull back in time just a little bit and do that
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Awww! I'm glad you have this a happy ending
And I'd like to note that I feel like your pictures have been looking really...Sharp lately
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hehe thanks, I'm constantly trying new things and out improving my technique, so hopefully my progression shows.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Maybe it's a combo of all of them. And your backgrounds aren't bad, I can't even do them yet.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha perhaps, but I think the sex is first and foremost
Well.. I guess my backgrounds aren't horrible, but they're nothing great, so I'm definitely not satisfied ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
d'awwww. That's just plain frickin' adorable. And you're right, they needed a happy ending to this little set. Very cute.

Haha thank you, I'm glad you liked it

If that is Nagrand (and I think it is), you did a wonderful job!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It is indeed Nagrand!
It's such a ghost of itself now, isn't it? I remember the days of Halaa Basin and the mad PvPing in there. Now it's so quiet and deserted.

Haha now we can enjoy the beauty of the landscape without worrying so badly about being ganked... except by those of the opposite faction who are working for their talbuks...

Wahahaha I did that! I was like, "GET THE HELL AWAY FROM MY OGRES" *gank* XD

Why do I get the feeling he's doing it for the last reason? XD
Either way, awsome pic <3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahahaha I think that, too XDDDDD
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
B'aw. But why is Yari upset? And what...happened t the gnome? o.0
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
She's upset because Meiles' pet ate her gnome! : [link]
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hee-hee! I haven't seen the obsidian hatchling yet - it looks a little like the Leaping hatchling that is hard to find in the Barrens. He's very cute! 
Is Yarifeth a priest then? Gee, she could've rezzed her pet gnome.
And if there is a book out there for how to do digital backgrounds, please share the title! I'm still trying to learn how to do them.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You buy it from the pet shop in Dalaran! I walk around mine with a red ribbon leash. It's just D'AAAAAW cute. Whenever my nephew's watching me play he always asks me to take him out XD
Yes, she's a priest, but you can't res if there's no corpse! Or if the corpse is all chewed up! Remember that quest in Northrend where you have to kill Vyrkul and then dismember their bodies? Yummy
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cool on the pet shop. I've never gotten to Dalaran, not yet. My highest level character is my death knight Rontuaru and she's level 65. I did get to the bio-domes in Outland and got her a blue dragonhawk hatchling, it's so cute! And as an Alliance person, I don't think the vendors in Eversong Woods would have sold her one. So you can get a leash that goes on the pet? That's awesome! 
Hee, now see, the DK would have just rezzed the poor gnome as a ghoul. Problem solved!
I haven't gotten any of my characters to Northrend, so I haven't done any of the quests out there. I'm looking forward to it.

Hahaha undead gnome pet! Oooh but Yarifeth doesn't like the undead! She's always a nervous wreck when she goes to UC (which reminds me, I have a sketch of that I have to work on, hehe!)
Yeah, you can buy a leash, and you can buy pet food that makes your pet love you and a pet grooming kit that makes your pet sparkly
Hehe well only 5 levels to Northrend! Good luck
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hee! Why do I have this vision of Meiles taking Yari shopping in Undercity and she spends the whole time creeped-out? Poor girl. She could hang out with Herumor, my belf DK... she looks a bit more presentable than the usual Forsaken.
Cool on the leash and gear! Gotta try it!
Have you gotten release 4 running yet? We just got all the patches tonight and I'm still trying to figure out where to put the talent points, etc.
But dual-spec only costs 100 gold now!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Durrr I'm still downloading the patch! It's taking foreverrrrr!
WTF only 100g??? And just a couple months ago I blew 1000g on a tanking spec that I'll probably never use again because I am such a shitty ass tank!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Patch means flaky WoW for awhile... plus all my add-ons got broken. Need to see if new versions are out there. 
Oh no, you're the second person who said they spent the 1000g recently for dual-spec. 
I'm still trying to figure out what I'm doing with the Death Knight's rotations.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I got my DK's builds and rotations here: [link]
For DPS spec I use the blood spec that dips into unholy for the ghoul... only because I think the ghouls are adorable (shut up!). Although the DPS I get from that is less than spectacular, but we'll see how it does in end game. If it's still lackluster I'll try a different build.
But oh wait.. we have new talents now, don't we? OBSCOLENCE!! Dammit.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Alas, no more mixed builds for now. But... I'm working it out with my death knight. Blood is fun.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I haven't touched my DK yet... I think the ghoul is adorable, though, so I think I might have to go unholy D:
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I haven't tried unholy yet on any of my DKs, but I'm tempted for my Horde Belf DK, Herumor. She'd get into causing mayhem with various undead pets.

Hahahaha xD I love the obsidians look all "....dude." xDDD
