Zhyaril for :iconfictionist: :)

Sam is the whole reason I started loving Drafts. She has so many of them and she draws them so beautifully... And I'm tired of those stick thin little pretty things you see everywhere, you know?

I love Zhy. He's a complex character and I tried to capture some essence of that complexity in his face. Maybe I'm a softy for characters that are intensely loved by their owners/creators. It always shows. Kudos, Sam :heart:

I needed to take a little break from commissions ^^;

Originally this was going to be a scene from our RP, with my character Ezebo all bloody in the snow and stuff, but Zhy pretty much dominated the image anyway so he gets his own little picture all to himself :XD: Hope you're happy Zhy.

Anywho. Total time is all warped because I really drew 2 horses and a much bigger scene that completely failed. So I'm going to estimate I spent aobut 2 hours on Zhyaril and probably 30 minutes on the background (can't you tell? haha). Snow is my next challenge to conquer :| Otherwise, this was incredibly fun! I think my shading has improved :)
