Zargothrax: I had this drawing 98% finished for more than half a year. I wanted to add more realistic fur, better shadows, etc., but as time went on, I had to realize, that my workflow isn't really compatible with what I had back then. So I just did the essential changes. I could have sat down and started to redraw a bunch of stuff, but I think it's better this way. It's still my most complex painting here by a long-shot. Also I feel like this is the perfect post to claim upload number 6666, could not let that slip.
The image itself depicts how Gaius sees Katia.

somethingsomething: It looks really good! The shadows look great and the small flames from the fire add to the feel of the piece.

Tabby_Catface: Holy shit dude Ok, this is glorious, but is it just me, or her shadow is breaking laws of geometry a little

Zargothrax: @Tabby_Catface: Thank you! And yeah I know. Made the shadows a long time ago. Also if you look closely the blood doesn't have a shadow either. But I felt like this was left unposted for far too long already. As I said, I could've started repairing everything wrong with this painting, but I didn't feel like it, as this is just far overdue already.

@somethingsomething: Thanks! Actually the fire and the embers were the main thing that I added now, not half a year ago. (the other was just reworking the shadows on the fur)

KuroNeko: Damn Katia, can you tone down the edge a bit, you're giving us daedra worshiper a bad reputation Now, wich one of you kids want some horrible diseases?

But seriously this is really cool, with the style of clothes and the shading you used it kinds of reminds me of a renaissance painting. Nicely done

lapma: I kinda dont know what to say, It is just awesome.

Zargothrax: @KuroNeko: @lapma: Thanks!
