Aaand finally able to post this image. this was the result of, well, many many hours of work. I'm just happy to be able to post it in time for Draw a Werewolf Day(aka: DAWWD).
Someone didn't take their wolfbane after an encounter of the canid kind.

This is probably one of my favorite pictures of yours; particularly impressive, seeing as I haven't really been interested in werewolves in years!
The detail on this thing is just kinda jaw-dropping, honestly. Each little fold in the clothing, the teensy little details on the fur (seriously, each little wave of fur must've taken hours by itself!), and especially the muzzle - with the intensity of the picture, it kinda feels like you can actually experiencing it popping, stretching, locking into place! Then there's the shadows - goodness, what possessed you to have a fire in there? Figuring out how to draw in the shadows must've been a nightmarish undertaking! Even the little extras - the scabbard and fire itself - are gorgeously rendered, making this one hell of a piece. Nicely done!

Thank you ^^
The fire certainly was helluva work. Especialy the flames themselves as they overlapped with other elements ogf the picture. Amusingly, possibly even moreso of a difficulty than the fur.
Still unsure about the shadows, but then again it's one of my very first times working with two different light sources.
Thank you very much for the comment :)

I really like this picture and the fact you keep trying new stuff. I think the best part is the amount of detail you add to your paintings. I love the fact you used object color as the shadow colors for other objects, and they look like shadows, you worked that out real well. Reminds me of the ball on the checker board image where it show two squares. One of the squares in in the light and another in the dark, they are same color but one seems like a white tile and the other a black tile.
However, I do think you made the background light too bright. A camp fire that close would put off quite a bit more light than even the brightest illuminated full moon.
Just remember that every light source makes its own shadow.
When the two light sources meet, at the azimuth of where one cast a shadow. The non shadow light will illuminate the shadow some, but not get rid of it. This is because the light from the shadow casting source will add to shadow illuminating source making it look brighter where the two sources meet around the shadow. This causes the illuminated shadow to still appear darker, but not as dark as if both sources cast shadows on the same place.
