Description This has to be the brightest image I've ever drawn xD and I actually toned the sky down a bit. Interesting.

Anyway...it happened again. I saw an adopt design and had to have it. But I think you guys will agree that this one...this one is just me. I was tempted to give her a horn, but you know, not everything has to be a unicorn.

So, this is Alandi Nuvola. She's probably going to be going into my story (her powers being obvious: clouds) and...well, probably being a main character just because she's so awesome. Her cloud markings shift and move across her coat, so they are never exactly the same. Her mane and tail are very light and mist-like, often trailing some sort of misty cloud material when she's moving.

Didn't want to get TOO detailed with this because I wanted to focus to be on her markings. So!

Credits:
Art is mine. Alandi's name is subject to change...I'm not sure it suits her. Feel free to give suggestions! Thanks to ~NewShine , her name is now Nuvola!

Oh, shame on me Ref is from *Breathless-dk !

Wowww gorgeous! I love that idea of markings, how they are always moving. That must make her lots of fun to draw You don't have to worry about tediously reproducing the same cloud pattern every time!

Cloudrunner64 In reply to casca-x [2011-05-07 21:11:48 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Yeah, that's handy for not having to try and replicate the same cloud pattern all the time. Plus, you can change them up depending on her mood. BIG CLOUDS LITTLE CLOUDS SKINNY CLOUDS LIGHTNING CLOUDS ZAP
Hehe.

Oh yes, this is most definitely the best drawing I think I've seen you do so far. Excellent positioning of the horse. It makes her seem almost angelic, even without the added affect of her coloring and the atmosphere which by the way is very well done.

Aww, thank you! <33 I really liked the floating sort of pose...it just fit the cloud idea so well. Thanks so much.

Cloudrunner64 In reply to Dollyrawr [2011-04-28 19:00:00 +0000 UTC]

Yaaaaay I'm glad you like her! And honestly, the second I saw her, I could just see the clouds blowing across her coat xD It's just so perfect for me. Oh yeah, glad you like the hair--the first time it was too solid, and didn't follow the curve of her neck at all. Totally worth the redo.

This is pretty darn amazing. O.o WOW.

I kind of like her without a horn, actually. It seems to sharp and pointy for a being who is associated with clouds. I also LOVE how her clouds shift... which kind of brings up an interesting association in my head... but anyway.

Hm. I agree, I think Alandi doesn't suit her. Like a horn, it just seems to "fixed". I thought of something like Aloo ("aloof" XD--well, clouds kinda are... except you. ) Or Alooway or something dorky. Anyway. Will quit babbling.

But this is epic. <3

Cloudrunner64 In reply to Tweede-Kans [2011-04-28 19:08:41 +0000 UTC]

Thank you <3

True! I actually hadn't thought about the sharpness. You are right, it wouldn't fit her at all.

And you're right about the name. That's why it bugs me, it's too solid. What do you think about Nuvola? It's Italian for Cloud. ~NewShine was giving me name suggestions

I feel like killing you right now.
But I won't, because I can totally see why you wanted this one

She's gorgeous and you did really well on that pose! BUT WHY IS THAT EYE HIDDEN AGAIN, MISS CLOUD? D< I wanted to see her eye color
Ok, now seriously, beautiful work, I love it <3

DEATH. DESTRUCTION. DOOOOOM.
Hehe. Yeah. She's just too...perfect. xD

Thank you! AND. BECAUSE. For some reason I couldn't get the shape right and it angered me. xD When I give her a proper reference you'll get to see her eyes. Probably.

Hehe. Thanks so much bby
