Description The young Eevee was walking in the forest
It was a night
darker than any it has experienced thus far.
The eevee could not see a thing.
It was pitch black.
The heart of darkness.

But then, the eevee heard a sound.
Like a glimpes of hope in a deadly silence.
Flowing water.
It ran to the sound,
letting nothing stop its way to its source.
The eevee tripped to a root,
but it stood up.
It bumped to a tree,
but kept running.

Then, finally, its feet touched the water.
On that moment,
a glimpse of light appeared.
The breaking of a new dawn
painted the forest and the river
into a marvelous golden color.
The birds were singing
and morning mist covered the surface of the water.
Rays of the rising sun
smiling at the little pokemon through the leaves.

The eevee stood in the water,
unalbe to take its eyes of this magnificent sight.
It got to wintess Mother Nature's kindom
in its full pride.

"There was something mystical in that moment"
it said afterwards.
"A true wonder of the nature."

That's a really nice story, with an equally nice pic to go with it! Sincerely, it's beautiful! ^^ I just love the water effects and colors. This almost seems like a painting!

Wonderful job, Rai! You certainly broke your art block in a great way. ^^

This is so good I can hear music in the background!

possibly the music from Ordon Forest in LoZ TP .

The background alone is breath-taking, not to mention the light effect!

The reflections in the water is superb, and you nailed evee's reflection as well (hard to do!).

The poem is great considering English isn't your first language.

I like the shapes in the background too. Is that a person's head and the Loch Ness monster?

Thank you very much *^^*

I was listening to Celtic music, when I did this

Tha BG's reference was a photo I had as my desktop BG ^^

The reflection wasn't actually that hard :3 Just copy the eevee, flip it over and distort is, so it looks like in water ^^

Thanks =n.n= It's been long since I added a story to a pic :3

What? XD There are no other characters than Eevee :3 If I guess, what you are looking for, it is supposed to be a rock XD

Holy Jesus, bro. I didn't comprehend what exactly I was seeing at first, because the sheer awesomeness of this drawing i think fried some brain cells.

So, so wonderful.

Wow! This is superb!

Just one question, is this all digitally made or did you scan something first?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

FireRai In reply to ArwingPilot114 [2010-02-20 10:21:51 +0000 UTC]

I usually do the character lineart (and sometimes background) traditionally with pen and paper, but as I don't have scanner right now, this is 100% digitally made :3
I did use a photo for reference in the BG n.n
Thank you very much n.n

When you feel like spitting your breakfast out in sheer amazement upon what you have drawn, you go and make a simply breath-taking story-line.
I read that three times, it's beautiful Rai-Rai!

There was absolutely no grammar error in that story either, I was quite brainless to critique "Geo's story" when you made it such a long time ago!

You really blew me away with this one. This was what you were making when I interrupted you on msn last night O-O...Arceus have pity on my soul.

The background is just amazing. What tool did you use, if you don't mind me asking?
The Eevee is the cutest little bundle of fluff and the lighting - this has got to be one of my all-time favourites on the whole of Deviantart.
Believe me, I take my all-time favourites list very very seriously and with great pride, they need tons of effort to make it into that catergory o' mine =3
You are an amazing person Rai - not just in your endless talents but also your personality and amazing helping abilities.
I know for a fact thaqt your msn conversations have changed my thinking patterns - for the better
Not one single downside to this picture; and I have just looked as closely as I can to find one!
