Here I was thinking that the coloring would be easier than the lineart.

HELL NO it wasn't! X-x Definitely fooled me ;

I'm sorry, but I simply cannot work on this any longer. I'm stuck with this picture, the grass especially was just not clicking with me.

I know the stock photos suck, but I couldn't find any other way. Cel shading is not my strong point, no matter how much I looked at Tree's art, and the grass....the damn grass...just looked bad when it was all GREEN.
Must be the angle, I don't have anything else going on in the bg to help take the emphasis off the grass ><

So this is what you get. I'm sorry. If I ever get a nice printer, I'll probably print out the lineart and use pencils on it. I wish I could have done it that way instead, it'd be so much easier

Though....I actually DO like how the wolf's fur came out. Of course I had to make it harder on myself and give him a mixed coat ; I'm an idiot, yes. But, I like the result. Just that part though

Oh well. If you guys feel like critiquing, or have any digital painting tips, then feel free to write it all down. They most likely will help me in the future since I'm an amateur with digital coloring...

Good job with the coloring though...i'm attempting to color a picture in PS, and it's working out harder than i expected.

Fenrir Kar Says:

I have to say...this has got to be a bagillion times better then I could have ever hoped for...this looks more like commissioned work then a request...I can't tell you how grateful I am! ^^ It came out so perfectly.

Tree Says:

Everything looks great! what are you talking about!? The grass looks real, the wolves colors looks awesome, and how you added the dirt everywhere having the idea that he was struggling works nicely for this piece.

Eccentric Says:

I'm not a digital champion either so I don't have any critiques on this I like it, believe it or not, even the gras!
I didn't notice it was a photo at first And the mud on the wolf looks realistic, good job!
