The original drawing I did for the Draw It Again Challenge (hosted by @jillustrations ) was something I sketched in 2011, right after high school, while I was abroad in Europe. I uploaded it later the next year after I scanned and colored it.

I don't remember much about it besides wanting to draw something cool so YEAH. Sexy Elf girl on a weird wolf like steed...

I didn't want to change the poses when I was reworking it, besides adjusting the legs so they weren't awkward.

The lineart is usually when I add a bunch of details...which is what I did.

Added colors based on the original piece. I also brought the tails to the front on a suggestion from a friend.

This is how I do my values sometimes. But it's a lot more work so I don't do it very often. (I then put this layer on multiply over the colors.)

And then I added glow stuff. Woooo.

(And I accidentally used the wrong saved file for the comparison so no glow in the comparison, whooops.)

Thanks for reading!!!
