This was done in a Secret Santa project done at a place called LilyMud, this one being the offical one run by the 'Mud as it was run by my friend Timitu. I entered it for the second time in my life and managed to get 'Scape, one of my favorite artists who I ironicly had forgotten to fave at DA and on The Lion King Fan Art Archive (I will call it TLKFAA from here on out).

Anyway, she asked that the person who got her in this mass surprise trade thing that they do one of two or three of her characters. I had a hard time choosing and in the end decided to do her fursona 'Scape because I always loved pandas, both red and giant.

I ended up getting very elaberat with the background, so much that this sketch took up a whole sketchbook page and 'Scape was so small. For my submision there I trimmed it down to just being 'Scape and a few of the branches. I then uploaded the full version on DA so she could see the whole thing (there was a size limit to what we could send in as our "surprise trade" the original size was way too big for that limit).

I also made the snowflake brush used in this picture... sadly that means all the snowflakes used here are the same shape just different sizes.
