Looks like Finn has discovered someone sleeping in her territory. Normally she'd tear them limb from limb, but there's something different about this one....

This is a scene from Sirenth, yet another story of mine with alot of characters but no real plot as of now. Thane (the elf pictured here) is probably the most developed so far, though that's not saying much. His past is all worked out and I've got a good idea of his current situation, which is more than I can say for most of the other characters.

This has been sitting in my sketchbook for a few months and I picked at it every once in a while but didn't think it finished enough until recently. Finn is a bit out of scale, she should be bigger, but paper space was limited and I haven't quite mastered actually drawing with the tablet yet. For the grass, originally I had painted every single blade separately, but in the end it looked pretty crappy, so I chose one part that I liked, duplicated it a few times, then messed with the size and rearranged it. It's kind of cheating, but it looks alot better than when I had done all of it by hand. This was a big project for me, and any tips on how it could be better are appreciated :D

Pretty...:)

Those lines on her chest look a little out of place, and something about the angle of her foot bugs me, maybe a bit too extreme, but I like it!

(and duplicating your grass isn't cheating, it's time saving! :D It's nice grass too.)
aww! that's all wicked awesome! yeah!
(reminds me of a dream...hmmm...)
i love it!

Ohhhh, this looks fantastic! I like the creatury thing, she's so cool! (Finn, you said?) I just can't get over what an awesome design she is. Ohh, you and your crazyawesome imagination, Britt.

I think it looks great, no crits. Wow. It's so pretty! :aww: Oh, wait, I've thought of something. Thane doesn't have eyelashes. You don't usually seem to draw eyelashes so that could just be a stylistic choice (or it has something to do with Thane being an elf...?) but I thought I'd mention it. It's one of those things that I occasionally forget to colour in. ;P

My signature could beat up your signature.

I don't usually draw individual eyelashes, especially on boys. Sometimes on a portrait of a female character I'll do a few lashes, but I haven't figured out yet how to draw them on guys so that they don't look girly (and I was kind of afraid people would already mistake Thane for a girl).

Thanks for commenting :D

Very detailed, and beautiful. I love the design on the Lunan. Those certainly are a different creature. What is their nature?

Thanks! :)

Lunans are usually quite vicious, they'll eat just about anything that bleeds. They live and hunt in packs of about 10 that are led by one alpha lunan, usually a female. They're about the size of a small pony, but they're masters of stealth- their prey often doesn't know it's being hunted until they launch the attack. They can run as fast as a greyhound, but they usually don't have to because they're so good at sneaking up on their food. Lunans are completely mute and it's widely believed that they communicate via telepathy. It's also common belief that they are somehow affiliated with the dead.
To sum it all up, they're basically really big, really creepy, and really mean wolves. :nod:

Awesome. You answered pretty much any question I would have about them. Except one. Are they highly entelligent? Or do they follow along the lines of a wolf there as well. Thank you for the excellent answer
