Drgn8D had this "YCH" sketch a while back that I won, and sat around waiting for details from me. At some point this idea popped up, I think it was drgn8d's, and I decided to give away the little-guy slot in a burst-journal. Stormdancer snagged it, and so that little wolf-dragon-dude on Rooth's tail is him! :) While it's hard to see him in this pic, his spot was cheap (maybe free?), and I think he got a close-up sorta cropped version outta this, IIRC. So hopefully it was worth it. :)

I adore the lighting of this pic. It's got that sort of pale bright-moon look to it, but Rooth of course catches all the moonlight, because he's like a light-magnet or something. Hmmm, yeah, that's in fact how he glows - just gathers light from the environment.

But yeah, those mountains, that waterfall ... really cool desaturated light to contrast with Rooth's scales. Very cool.

Before you ask, yes, I know, Drgn8d drew him with sorta scaley pads, and while that's not normally his thing, it's fine. :) One of those things I flex on, if it 'fits'. Kinda does here, because wolf.
