UPDATED
Sooooo....a while back for Christmas my epic boyfriend bought me a Wacom tablet and I've been wanting to use that magic and spice this picture up but have been completely swamped in commissions and other things. But I FINALLY got around to updating this picture...so here you have it.

Here's a before and after comparison

The detail shots have also been updated (see link below)

And I used a texture for the water from cgtextures.com

I dream...
...that more people will grow protective of life rather than destructive towards it...that they will gain more appreciation for life rather than taking it for granted...and that they will treasure life rather than throw it away...

This picture means a lot to me and I really hope it is a dream that many others share as well

I used a texture for the tree bark from [link]
The rest was sketched in pencil, scanned, and then completely repainted in Adobe Photoshop...using...A MOUSE. LOL I definitely need a wacom tablet...

This is reduced to about 15% of the original size, so a lot of detail was lost You can see some detail shots here
