It's utterly lovely.

I like this. It reminds me strongly of the style used in old children's books, illustrations for fairy tales...the REAL fairy tales, the ones that rarely end well or in General Audience Rated ways. It has a thick, solid, touchable look to it...as if I could reach into the screen and pull it out, and turn the page to see where the story goes.

I think my only beef with it is that it looks more like a wolf than coyote. XD Frankly I like wolves better anyways, so I guess I can't complain!

Coyote is floofed out with a winter coat...yeah...winter coat. There's a general trend for when I paint something that it bulks up from the original line drawing. I need to start taking that into account.

I dunno, I kinda like how solid your works look. :3

Must beg you for a trade one'a these days. XD

There could be Gallows in your future. *Grins*

It is good- of course I'm living in Ice Hell at the moment, so what touches me personally is the feeling of cold, the way you have captured the bleakness. Perhaps when it is getting lighter outside instead of darker-- I'm writing shortly after sunset-- the coyote's fortitude in facing the surroundings would be my first and strongest impression.

Call it the dis-enchanted forest. *Grins*

Thanks! Much appreciated.

that looked like a photo in the thumbnail! o.o

Really? Thanks!

very kewl effect..very dark for winter ^ ^

I like him a lot.

He is a she, but thanks. :)

Ok, her. =P She's very pretty. But she looks so sad.

Be careful. Coyotes are clever.

That's super work, Mulefoot! I love the texture. It's amazing what you can accomplish with ink washes.

Thanks. Ive been kind of afraid to try it. Don't know why it took me so long.

Oh this turned out really nice Muley! I wasn't sure what it would look like or what your visual representation of the idea would be and so I find myself very pleasantly surprised.

Glad you like it. Its a new kind of thing for me.

Dreams are odd sometimes. One can dream of something they've never came across or done. It's...wierd.

But this is really neat! I really adore coyotes and seeing one drawn in your style is a treat for me xD I love how raggy and somewhat weak the 'yote looks. The bit of detail in the tree is a great touch too <3 Awesome job with watercolors! And "ink washes" aha <3

Thank you very much. It was a bit of a spiritual piece for me.

I think the background is wonderful. Like looking into a fog.
