Description Yay pallanophs!!

My entry for 's contest.

Illustrate a scene from her novel in progress:
[link]  

I've done scene #3 here , Nharath is absolutely one of my favourite characters of hers, and as I'm not wonderful at drawings humans, I had to at least practice and include Adelaide here as well. I wish I had spent alittle more time on the planning and sketches here, but I feared I'd never get it finished
If anything particularity bugs me, I might edit in a few days, I'm alittle worried about the colours burning to be honest. I still have not managed to fix my computer's settings

That. Is. Amazing. The fur, the trees, the menace of a worryingly large and angry animal stalking slowly towards a small girl... Excellent job!

Omg. This is stunning. I can't stop looking at all the details.
The colors look fine to me... I often worry about that myself :/ I'm on a laptop and so sometimes the colors change when I tilt the screen back and forth >_> Then I go to school and use the desktops and all my colors are weird D:

Wow, that's so beautiful! I love the setting and lighting, and the details especially on the trunk are amazing! And I think Adelaide is quite pretty, I really like her face. I'm glad you made it, I've been curious about your entry.

Thank you so much!
I'm glad you think Adalaide turned out alright too. Humans are such a challenge for me.

pallanoph [2011-11-30 11:22:23 +0000 UTC]

Oh my... This turned out gorgeous! The lighting, the colors! All perfect. Do I even need to mention how stunning the textures are? Everything stands out in it's own way, and the atmospheric perspective really brings this scene to life. Both Adelaide and Nharath look perfect! (Ohmygoodness the beech tree! *dies happily*)

I do almost want to see some grass and debris coming up around Nharath's paws so he feels just a bit more grounded. Minor detail, easily overlooked!

Eeee! Thanks so very much for participating in this contest! I'll go put it in the submissions folder.

Eeee, thank you!
And you're right, I'll probably add some grass there for him
Thank you!

And if you draw one of those arrows sticking out of the Pallanoph's butt, it's a whole different picture
