Description

Yesh, yesh...I know - another Sooka picture! *shot*

I really only did this to practice doing a more active pose as well as attempting to do a proper background instead of my usual lazy, half-assed ones.

Anyways, the scene was sort of inspired by the fire scene from the Lion King 2...for those of you familiar with it. X3 Nothing much else to say other than that! Oh, oh...! And yesh, Sooka's tattoo is activation. She's using her walking on water ability - although she probably won't be getting very far; she's not the best at using her powers. She prefers to use her teeth and claws when in trouble.

Wow, you are so great at backgrounds, what are you talking about. You can't say you are not good without trying first! Geez woman, get a hold of yourself! *slaps some sense into you* Anyway, this is amazing! Like always xD Love the pose, the long legs, the long tail and her expression. It really captures the moment in which she is taken by surprise and is shocked by what she sees. Wonderful execution

I-I'm not very good at them...I was just trying something new. I'm horrible with perspective, so I make everything flat. *shot* Eep, but thank you so much!! I really liked getting to do her pose since it was "in action" and pretty new to me. >.< Thank you so much for all your lovely encouragement, Yolly-pie~!! <3

Of course! And I mean everything I say. It was new and you might not feel comfortable drawing such scenes but trust me, it came out wonderfully <3

Thank you very much, Miss Frosty!! ;w; I actually put effort into a background for once! XD I wanted to do an active pose since I've seen all the lovely poses you give your cat. :3

Heckles yeah, you nailed the background & effects just as promised! The smoke & embers combine decisively to imply the rushing flames, though they may be a fair distance off, would be enough to scorch le kitty cat~ And, also, Sooka here's got the whole 'freak-out' down pat. XD Ohhh yes~

Lucky gal, to be a Water Triber & to be able to pad around on the lake. ;] Perhapsh she oughta parlay that into a career in EPICRY. @w@

Nyaaa, Darky I likes this I do~ You should feel gewd about it, yah? =3 Yah! Yesh indeed. ;w; YSBFF~

Thank you, thank you, thank you Tek~!! Andddd thank you for helping me out when I was still doing those embers and the smoke. I really appreciate your input - it helped me a lot to make the background! :3

Ahh yes...One of the many perks to being a Water Triber~! Although, truth be told...Sooka really sucks at using her powers. XD She'll take a few steps on that lake and then fall in. *facepalm*

Wonderful foreground rocks! The coloration and flaking is perfect; just like rocks I've seen lakeside.
Very nice smoke and cloud effects too!

Interesting tail Sooka has there. Did you have fun with that?

Thank you!! I spent a lot of time on those rocks. I've never done a real background before, but your insistence that I was just being lazy really made me feel like I should try. XD So...I applied all I know about painting to this so I could at least try and make a semi-nice background. Digital painting is a lot different from painting on a canvas unfortunately though. O.o

Ahh yes...Sooka has an unusually long tail. X3 It's part of her character design. :3

And I was right too! That's a -wonderful- background!!

Yeah; I remember Sooka's tail from her character sheet. I just want to pull yours about it.
