It's the last day of August as I post this. Technically not the end of Summer yet, but it'll be coming to a close very soon. And with the end of Summer comes the end of warm weather and the end of butterflies flying around. So of course Malachite has to make the most of the time he has left this season to run after his favorite insect. Looks like he found one to his liking!

This art was made by the very impressive  Sockune who got this done only a few hours after receiving the commission. I was completely stunned by how quickly this was produced, especially given how complicated the character is! The first version of this picture had Malachite's eyes closed, and when I asked for a version with the eyes open, Sockune very graciously accepted the request and sent me a second version, again at an incredible speed!

Sockune, if you see this, I want to say thank you again for this wonderful art, I love it! I also hope it's okay that I changed the coloring of his fingers, and I apologize if I wasn't clear in my feedback.

Guys, go get some art from Sockune. You will not find art of this quality with as fast a turn around time that this artist provides anywhere else.
