Description For
You have blundered into Skrekrill territory, and some Gunna toughs have spotted you. What will you do?
"Do you really think that little Grandesque rat went in here?" demanded Fennis.
“There’s no mistake!” declared Skae as she adopted a battle stance, “My ears heard cries coming from this crevice, I am certain of it!”
While the two griffins continued to inspect the craggy hole, a small form hurriedly fled towards the Grandesque border, unnoticed on silent wingbeats.
--------------------------------------------------------
I procrastinated way too much on this thing
There was much more I wanted to write into the story, but I guess this will do.
Reva's ventriloquism saves the day!
(I know that ventriloquism is more 'speaking with one's stomach' than it is 'throwing one's voice', but let's pretend for a bit that it is....)

Decided to try a different compostion by not having my character be the main focus of the picture. I think it worked out well


Thanks to and for letting me borrow the Skrekrills Fennis and Skae , respectively.
Reva (that itty bitty little brownish shape to the far right) belongs to me.

Ha ha, neat idea! I like the unexpected focus. I didn't notice wee Reva until I read your comments! Very cool composition, as if we are in the crevice.

Skae looks so INTENSE.

wow, I really thought this was watercolor and I had to stare at the image category for a minute to be sure. Awesome work! I love The expressions and how well the image connects to the story. Great Stuff.

Thanks so much for the kind words!

Does it really look that much like watercolor?? ...maybe it's the texture on the rocks......

I love the pose! The wings look really good and so does the shading on the rocks.

Very nicely done piece I think my only crit would really be to add abit more colour to the rocks like a slightly brownish cast to it or spots of green to indicate moss. It'll take abit of time to get it right but you'll love the result
as for the texture - have you tried using rock salt with water colour before? (I'm asuming this is a watercolour piece) if you get it right you can give a nice rocky texture to it too but go nuts and experiment its fun
(salt crystals are better for rocky texture than the grinded stuff)

I tried to find a nice example but it seems not that many do rock painting tutorials

Thank you very much for the crit! I'm not a watercolor artist (this is 100% digital, actually), but I'm sure that salt tip will come in handy someday!
Regarding the lack of moss, the terrain is more or less inspired by volcanic rock fields; there isn't particularly much moss found there....
