Finally! Ouch my wrist. I'm so going to spend the money on a tablet or Wacom if I'm going to do another one of these again. Well I may do another, I'll have to see. I threw the line version into scraps and replacing it with this one. I wanted to finish it up before I started my move to the new place this weekend. I wasn't going to be sure if or when I'll get internet over there.

This is pretty much a first from me. The original sketch work was done by  dingopatagonico, I just offered to color it up for him. As I was working on it, I originally though I'd do it in flat colors. Then, I started messing around with shading and figured that it looked nicer so I went with it. The shading might be a little off, but hey, I think it looks good. Talk about a pain.

I couldn't really think of a background. I thought maybe the hills of his home town but then I would have needed to enlarged the canvas and I wasn't too sure what to put in the foreground where he was standing. I also thought of coating him in light layer of snowflakes, because it seemed cute. Though, they don't really get snow over where he is. Further out, (40-60km) from the city they do though from what he's told me. Apparently dingos hate cold weather or something, hence the look he's giving.

Also thanks for those that had helped me on various bits along the way.

Oh ya, I think your eyes were suppose to be a light brown. I half forgot and half thought it looked better with the black instead. It would have been a little difficult to get the brown fitted in there. Enjoy!
