Description

Whew! Took me a little while to color all this, and I'm not entirely sure I'm happy with all of it, but I'm satisfied for now. This was drawn by my sister, ~3Fangs specifically to give me practice coloring backgrounds. (Not that I needed any.)
Well, it did succeed in ONE thing. I need a break from coloring for a little while.
This was the biggest picture I've ever colored before, and it was fun, yet almost tedious. Almost. Character is mine, although she STILL does not have a name as of yet.
I'd love to know what you people think of this picture, shading and all, so please don't be shy. Any comments you make, know that it will most likely help me improve in the future. :)
Bit of trivia; Mt. Graydies is the home of the largest harpy clan in Aever. (see map for reference [link]) The mountains are of a light brown sandstone with forest surrounding them.

Those that want to color the picture themselves, can find it here, [link] And those that just want to color the Harpy, and not the entire background, can find the lines here, [link] :)

Lines and Inks were done by my sister, :icon3fangs:
Colors, shading, and character belong to me. :)

Thank you for coloring it!! :thanks:

I like the shading on her--you mange to make the black look shiny and leathery in a believable manner. (And I was really impressed with your work on the wings; they look very raven-like.)

I don't care much for the background, but that's coz I wasn't actually pleased with my lines for it. =(
