BONUS TIMELAPSE! https://i.imgur.com/3X7L3yg.mp4

The end of this month (Around May 28th I believe) is my 2 year art anniversary! In light of this, I wanted to make something nice for the community who have given me so much love and support throughout my learning process, /r/FurryArtSchool and its respective Discord server! I've been hanging around on the server since it opened and have come to meet some absolutely wonderful people on there who have been so supportive over these two years.

Recently (About a week or two ago), I started learning to how do more painting-styled art, meaning no line art at all! It's been super fun and quite the challenge. I was doing daily livestreamed (in the voice chat channel) speed-paints for some friends on the server where I'd do a 1-2 hour painting of their character for them as a gift, which was super fun. I've wanted to do a large group drawing for a long time but was super scared to try it, since drawing even one full body can be quite the challenge :D Doing these paintings and seeing how many I was doing got me the confidence to give this piece a shot.

It also forced me to try a lot more species and character types that I'm not used to at all such as Aria the Gazelle coming through the door, Virlym, the blue Lizard Rogue seated in the middle, or Regulus, the dragon behind the counter! It was a very mixed bag so it feels good to have gone out of my comfort zone a bit with this :)
