Description And this is why I never submit anything traditional. I can't get a proper scan of it without having to butcher it just to make it look remotely like it. It's MUCH better in real life. Anyway, ~Xaqariah asked for a picture of Misora playing in a summertime field as his contest prize, so here it is. I honestly wish my scanner wasn't such a douche.

I really love how you do your fur textures, digitally or traditionally.
Really great work, I like how 'soft' this looks with the lighter coloring. Nice looking anatomy and posing and really great colors and shading.

So beautiful, the fur and mane look really lovely. I like your traditional art, shame scanners can be so evil sometimes.

Indeed. >.< What's sad is this scanner isn't all that old and shouldn't give me so many troubles, but I guess that's the curse of all scanners, eh?

I can still see the amount of detail you put into it Misora, regardless of how much your scanner butchered it A scanner will always make any white left on a picture look brighter, and dim the rest of it, losing the darker details of the piece. Might want to tweak your scanning settings, or possibly restore the detail via photoshop with simple tools, like burn/dodge and saturation.

Great piece though

Oh, wow!

This is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for all of the work you put into this.

This is a fun pic. I love the details, even if the scanner "butchered" it, as you say...
(I know how that goes) It still looks awesome.

I really like how fluffy she looks.

Red-Dragon-88 [2008-06-21 00:08:58 +0000 UTC]

I have to agree on the scanners, the scanner alone always butchers the drawings, especially the good ones. Cute drawing though btw.
