Proud Like A God

<sub>Have you ever had a dream?
or is life just a trip?
a trip without chances
a chance to grow up quick

Open your eyes, open your mind
proud like a god, don't pretend to be blind
trapped in yourself, break out instead
beat the machine that works in your head

Hide your face forever
dream and search forever
night and night you feel nothing
there's no way outside of my land

First of all, sorry for being so inactive lately! I've been working my ass of with a wall painting, which is part of my on-the-job-learning. It have been a pleasure to do but takes way more time than i thought! Currently i'm working with it ~10 hours per day.

Sooo i'm not really up for drawing stuff when i'm home.

Two weeks and it should be ready though. At least i hope so.

BUT YEAH THAT'S IT I GUESS. Let's talk about the picture up there.
I ~finally~ got the courage to figure out how to do digital linearts! They've been always pretty hard for me and that's the reason i don't draw 100% digital stuff too much. .______________. Lucky me tho, i found many good tutorials and got the pic ready. : D Of course i'm still learning, but i'm pretty happy with the lines.

Character's name is Tomu(it's finnish and means dust, fyi). He got his name after his gray face-marking; it's like his face is dirty after someone threw dust in his face. The place he's from, canines are mostly pure white and markings or any other fur colors than white are very rare and highly despised. Therefore Tomu's just an ugly freak for others and nobody really want to be near him. And it's not helping that he's mainly just a reckless brat with loads of teenage rage. But he has some heroic qualities too.

I listened Open Your Eyes by Guano Apes waaay too many times while working with this. Not only i like the song veryvery much but i think it fits for this character too.

......lineart is pretty much only thing i bothered to do with patience, ha ha. Though I still like this one, i think the colors turned out pretty well... at least they're something i don't normally use! Usually my drawings are rather dark-colored, hee.

Ffft, and because i like this one without background too, i uploaded it in my scraps: [link]
