So, I have to write a series of short stories for my class at Uni, that I can handle, but I also have to illustrate them.
One of the short stories is about a wolf that swallowed the moon. I had to design a front cover for the story and I was wondering whether you'd be able to tell me if it was sucky or not!
I don't usually draw animals too well, so please don't laugh!

I like it, nice colors. <3 That reminds me of the legend of Skoll and Hati, two wolves who are related to Fenrir. They chase after the moon and sun deities, Sol and Mani, and that causes day and night to occur in Norse mythology. Eventually, in the Ragnarok, they catch and devour the sun and moon deities, which only adds to the chaos of the Ragnarok. /random xD

Yeah, stories like that were kind of my inspiration xD The background is actual a shot of an odd textile material, I have a load of them on a disc called "Japanese textiles" lol.
Thank you for the nice comment ^^

Oooooh, I really like it. X3 Especially the colors. It makes the moon look really bright. The pattern is neat too- It looks like the whole thing would make a really good desktop background. XD

I have the other image, the body shot as my background, haha. I thought that the background gave it a little bit of a zelda: twilight princess feel. Which was kind of the style I was going for.
