My half of a trade with my friend Crypsis/Sinereous!
This piece took me quite a while and I went way overboard but frankly I am glad that I did, since I learned a LOT and had so much fun. Also just happy to sit and do something really nice for them, since so much of my artistic drive is inspired by their works and how incredible they are at their craft, I guess it's also a hat-tip <3
ANYWAYS for info incase anyone wanted this was done almost entirely in SAI, with edits and blurs/effects done in an ancient version of Gimp. Time taken is.... unknown. I worked on it for a good amount of hours though on and off between other projects! Hope perhaps next year to DOUBLE in skill at environmental illustration //flex!!!!

Woah! I'm so not used to seeing such environments in your works but, this really
looks amazing! It's a great start too. I do encourage you practice more and do further
studies on it too!
The only thing I found to be a bit of an issue was how well the Sphinx blended in with the
environment (o.o). At first glance I noticed the forested land and the face of Sphinx. I couldn't
find the rest of the body until after a few moments I found the rear legs which made me
connect it to the rest of the body, torso and all. That was a pretty neat idea to emulate
camouflage so I guess at the end of the day I applaud you. XDD
Keep up the good work, and keep on designing cool stuff!

It's a rare thing for me, but I've been working slowly on it and if you compare it to older attempts, I've made HUGE leaps and I acknowledge this and hope to keep progressing. Treat the background like it's own character is the trick!
And that's actually secretly something I intended. This sphinx is partly inspired by overgrowth and decay alongside the more ornamental parts so if it's slightly hard to spot, that's good! Though I think next time I'll try to make a liiiiiittle bit more of a differentiation, just to see if it looks nicer
Thank you so much again!
