It's easy to tell you enjoyed the heck out of this :D

Not just cause I SAID I did, riiight? :p

NO NO.
I know you have to have noticed when an artist has gotten into a particular piece rather than just working it out. Sometimes it's a minimal quality change, sometimes not. Usually the atmosphere in the picture will be a lot different than one they didn't feel 'into' though.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I was just teasin'.

Wow!! there's so much I want to note about how amazing this is! First off my favorite part is the feet, I don't even know what to point out about them! but they're the best. The shading is astounding! places is stands out are on the little elbow spikies and the arms in front of the wing! I really love how you did the shoulders and the way they protrude, much like I'd picture and anthro dragon's. I simply ADORE the hands and the little wing hands, hands are one of my favorite parts of any pictures, there's just so much that can vary with them, and so many different things there can be done with them, I LOVE how you made these ones, especially the dangling right hand. And such an awesome take on the stripes!

I love your style so much! My favorite works ever are pencil sketches!

Nothin' I like more than a satisfied customer! I'm very happy YOU'RE happy with your commission. Your business is aaaalways welcome with me!

yeah totally, I'll almost 100% be looking to hit you up in the future

I'll look forward to it.
