...Okay... so maybe I know how to use colored pencils. Anyway, I have a picture of a wolf and a girl in my Elfwood gallery, and one day a girl e-mailed and asked me to draw one for her. I dawdled on it cuz I was busy with school... and the girl kept e-mailing me about it. She worked the idea into my brain so well that when I sat down to do some new art for Katsucon, I ended up with this... and when I sent it to her, she didn't even e-mail back to say thanks. Moral of the story: Elfwood users scare me.

So yeah... this turned out really nice. At first I was disappointed cuz the wolf didn't look natural enough, then I decided I was using the wrong approach in coloring him... and when I scanned the image, the sky was so light you could hardly tell it was there. I ended up changing the color of the wolf and darkening everything else. No complaints, though. The drawing is much stronger this way.
