Description

You're a good soldier

Choosing your battles

Pick yourself up and dust yourself off and back in the saddle

You're on the front line

Everyone's watching

You know it's serious we're getting closer, this isn't over


The pressure's on

You feel it

But you've got it all

Believe it


When you fall get up oh oh

And if you fall get up eh eh

Tsamina mina zangalewa

'Cause this is Africa
...

Ayyy art trade w this super cool person: of her fursona Maliah!
Hyena's are one of my favourite animals(I've got like 50 different favourites before you ask :') ) but they're really bloody hard to draw! I drew 3 different sketches, not including this one, of Maliah and all of them looked so weird aaaa. Haha I'm glad it turned out all right in the end though.
Hope you like it Mary and you'll do great in those exams! <3

STOP PRESSURING ME I DON'T THINK THEY'RE THAT GREAT

But what I tend to do is draw the outline of the trunk and branches, colour them, then add a new layer for the leaves in one shade of green then add some dark splashes where there are shadows and some light patches where the light is. Idk I'm actuallly quite lazy when I draw trees haha

Aaaa that looks amazing for someone who says they can't draw trees! I'm loving the leaves!

If you want some tips I could probably offer a few:
I'd make the leaves shorter and more round and maybe add some little patches of blue in between the leaves to make it look like the sky's shining through
kinda like this, sorry for using your drawing! sta.sh/01m06rw62htq

Omg so many nostalgia from that song! :'D

aAAHH- IT'S SO GOOD! >V< I didn't think you'd draw her :'D

I love her running pose and how you colored her fur! (You're so good with watercolor- ;oΒ 
The background as well, especially the grass!

*gASP* You love hyenas!? Hell yeah! Welcome to the club! :'D *high-five*

ayyyyyy, love me some shakira :^D

Ahh thank you!! <3 Haha I only have one canine character so I need more reasons to draw 'em XD

Yeah I was proud of the pose, thanks again! (I wouldn't be able to survive without that brush tbh, pretty much 90% of everything in my drawings is done with that xD)

Mmhm, striped hyenas are my favourite! (^u^)/)

Maliah's hips don't lie

You should do more canine characters!

And a fursona as well!!! QuQ

Yes, you're great at it xD

Ikr? I love them!
I'm not the only one... :'D

pfft xD

Ye I should, wait actually I lied I have two, damn I've got too many characters x.x

I don't know what my fursona would look like, even though Maytine has her own story she's the one with the personality most similar to mine and she's based on two of my favourite animals... I think about making one a lot though, they'd probably be some sort of vulture/deer thing :')

This is my favourite video about them:Β www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIjgIQ…
I'd love to see them in the wild even though they're super frigging dangerous haha XD

x3

So as long as you don't have a fursona, she's like one?
Maybe your fursona could change forms? :3

Ooh! I've seen that one before!
This one is adorable, I love how hyenas have a playful and soft side:

Yeah she's the closest thing to a fursona I've got haha x3
Maybe! I think I might actually design them tonight, talking about it with you's made me want to make one now xD

Ahhhh what a cutie!Β

Maytine's a grump too, maybe that's why we're friends, we're grumps together huehue
CRI, I'VE GOT TOO MANY ALREADY

I'd love to get close to one if they're wasn't a chance I'd get bitten or killed, like I'd love to be like a big cat whisperer or something but it just seems too dangerous most of the time ;;

May's probably a rage-quitter, she'll give up in like 2 mins or break something... XD

Yeah, May could be Arin and Bloody, Jontron xD (I prefer Jon than Danny .v.)
Bloody is the typical that critiques and always comments
