Description
My half of an overdue art trade with *IsisMasshiro .

You know, this trade was sort of "special" to me, since Isis was one of the first canine artist I discovered trough internet. I remember wandering trough her artwork, thinking what my characters would look if they were drawn by her. I was over the moon when she accepted to trade with me.
Her suggestion for the character of the picture was Herättäjä (Eye Opener in english), one of the main protagonists in her short web comic with the same name. Herättäjä's appearance changes between three different forms, but he's usually seen as a black labrador retriever.

I noticed that Isis portrays him as rather slim and lean doggie, so I tried to avoid making him look too labradoriously chubby. Perhaps I got carried away with that. And now the skinny lab is skinny. Also the spine is a bit inaccurate ashd. But I really like how his paws turned out huhuhu.

Herättäjä the comic [link] (partially translated in english, but the last pages are currently available only in finnish. It's still definitely worth of checking out)

Her part, which is made of awesomeness [link]

Black Staedtler pigment liner, Faber-Castell colored pencils, coffee, white gouache
Have you guys ever noticed how wonderful coffee paintings smell like?

Hope you like it Isis!
