This is my entry for JBD #387, it looks terrible because it was rushed ^^'
As I ran all I could see was flames and ash. All I could smell was the burning trees. My lungs burned and I was heaving but I couldn't stop, the danger of death impends. After what seemed life forever, I'd finally escaped the death trap that was my forest. I cam to a stop atop a hill that overlooked the burning trees. A wave of nostalgia passed over me an I felt like my heart had been ripped out of me. I turned away, looking at my home turn to ash was too unbearable a deed. I looked up and there were fireflies all around me. Their light luminous and so wonderful. For the first time that day I smiled, for their light gave me hope. That hope ignited the last bit of will left in me. I followed the fireflies; I did not know where I was going, but I knew it would get better for when there is darkness there is always light.
Okay this drawing was so fu to do, because the color palette was so beautiful! And I immediately knew what I was going to draw the instant I saw her! I must say, even if I don't win her, it was wonderful drawing her!
(I'll post a flat color later, because it's hard to see her markings/colors with all the shading. Also, this took me about an hour and a half to do.)
On a different note, I'm back from hiatus! It's lovely to be back c:
