Phew, finally done!

I've been working on this for longer than I should have, I was expirimenting with certain stuff. I'm also trying to strengthen my BG skills.

That's my fursona, Ramala, the pic is displaying one out of many recent emotions I've been going through. It's more symbolic than anything obvious, so if you don't get it, I can't blame you. If you bug me, I might explain.

P.S. Yesh, I wanted the water "still" from the first place, I'm not just lazy.

EDIT: Since a few of yeh have asked, I'll explain a little bit. This paticular picture literally "reflects" me looking back at who I was years ago in wonder of how I could change so much. The water is still, as in dead... unreachable, cold, and long ago. Almost like a different world, a completely different person staring back. I left the colour choices completely to my emotion, lot's of thing in the pic depict things abstractly. I left the face of the relfection out on purpose, to let you imagine if it's same expression as mine... or different? I left it for you to decide.

takashari Says:

o_o That's amazing. I really like how you've done the reflection, and the curls in Ramala's hairfur, and the windblown feeling the rest of her puffed fur is giving off.
It really is a beautiful picture.

This is such a great concept, Ramala is just such a gorgeous character. I've always loved her yellow-golden eyes, they are so lovely, and look just splendid in this piccy.
