For Akkarri, his winged kitsune angel enchants a scroll. Maybe it has a poem that will inspire someone to create, or maybe it's just a generic resurrection scroll. Those things come in handy sometimes.

I'll be happy to! I draw on paper that was designed to take acrylics, although that's mainly because it's one of the thickest weight papers I can find that isn't illustration board, which is as thick as cardboard and really expensive. This is a bit cheaper and I know someone on ebay who will cut it into postcard sized pieces for me.
The actual brand of paper is this stuff: http://bit.ly/151uxyx

I love when people ask me about stuff like this!
Quick thing about the paper, I draw on the back which doesn't have the toothy texture. So if you get some and don't like the canvas texture of the front, just draw on the back ;)
I draw in layers. First I get my rough shapes down in a non photo blue pencil, then I tighten it up with graphite. The end result is that my sketches look like this: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3699072/
Then I ink my pencils with a technical pen (the .5 size one of these: http://bit.ly/16nBE4I just inking to DickBlick since they have them for show) but only in very simple lines. Enough that I have the basic linework inked.
After that I erase my pencils. The technical pen seems to be able to handle erasing and doesn't smear or fade too much as long as I give it a few seconds to dry, so after inking the basic lines it's still pretty solid.
After that I ink the lines with a brushpen to make them look less flat and more alive. My current favorite is the KaiMei Sumi Hair Brush: http://amzn.to/16nCQFj But I also use lots of other pens. I don't use the copics to ink with since the ink fades when I erase and their brushpens don't have an actual bristle brush tip to them.
And after that I color!
