Description Illustration from my own storyline. Mayte doing what she does best, taming large serpents
This took longer than it looks and longer than it should of done ._. Regardless, I at least like the water.

I somehow missed viewing this in full view despite seeing the thumbnail a while ago.. but I like it!

Although, I don't envy her for tackling something with fangs that large <3

Teehee, thank ye! I wanted the eel thing to be huge really, like, much bigger, but I'm poop at perspective and stuff, so I don't think it would have looked right ._. Wah.

The colours are fantastic.
She looks very at peace; does she find release in the subduing?

The water is pretty much perfect

Hehe, thanks! Referencing is useful after all, need to do more of it =/ Yay droplets. Maybe even more fun to painty than the fire was!
But yeah, she needs to try and spiritually connect with the dragonkin she's trying to tame, kinda like a meditation, or else it won't work, and she'd prolleh get eaten

Ah, I see

I'd love to see more water. I really liked the white highlights.

It's reminding me of FFXIII actually. There's a spear-wielding woman in said game who tames a dragon-like beast at one point in the story. She's a LOT less meditative though.

Hehe, I'd like to do more water too, alas, priorities ._. Need to get a move on for exhibition. Don't feel like there's time for fun and games at the moment

I know what you mean.. I'm doing fun and games as practice myself to get back into the 'proper' work, and things are still going wrong on me sometimes, which is sucky

Urf, guess we just gotta keep thinking "it'll all be worth it in the end - seeing them all hung nicely!"

I know what you mean.
I don't know if I'll get to see mine with everyone else's, or if I'll be submitting later on. . it's a bit upsetting. Either way though I really hope yours look lovely

Aww, I'm sure you'll be better enough by then, or they'll make some sort of allowance! Should be fine, I mean, can't let you miss out on it can they =/

Nah.. well I don't want to miss out but .. :/

It's more that I couldn't work for a while, then I had a hard time getting back into it and no people around of the right age to use as reference either, and a hard time going out.. and now this week I'm ok but a month behind. So, a bit concerned really

Great work with the detailed shading on Mayte there, the fur looks awesome. That background, particularly the water, is epic as well. It's very styled, but looks realisitc at the same time.
This is so cool. I hope you post something more soon!

Hehe, thank you! The water and splashes were the only bit I referenced, so they prolleh turned out to be the best bit ._. Must reference more often, but that's quite hard with anthros. XD
Glad you like it! Gotta finish a commission next, so more should indeed be soon!
