Description My character, Nano, in a middle of a storm and using his electric powers. XD I rarely draw him, so I wanted this to be epic. The background took about 2 hours and the actual coloring was...4 hours...? I can't remember much.

If you can't tell, it's raining out and there is a little bit of lightning. :3

Nano belongs to me

This is different coming from you, it really is. I see you put in an "actual" background in the picture. I will start out with saying that the shading on the hair is magnificent! It really seems to flow! The pose is nicely done too! This is really an epic picture

Something I do want to point out, though, is that it's getting to the point where you could start paying more attention to detail in some areas. I think next time you do a pic like this, make the fur look more like fur and the fabric more like the fabric type it is (rough, shiny and silky, etc.). You did SUCH a great job on that with the water, the grass, the hair... Now to piece it all together and make it all look like one, that's all you need to do, because the realistic detailing in the above DOES clash a bit with the more simple shading and highlights shown.

This is hands down one of your best pictures if not your best. This is just fantastic and original, and I think that if you did more of what was mentioned in the future, your pieces would really stand out among the Sonic Community. Keep up the good work.

Thank you :3

XD; On average, it takes me about 30 mins to do a sketch. I then tend to sketch again using the first sketch only darker and with more details. A bit more tedious than traditional, but it sure beats me having to wait to go to Ivy's to scan things *still lacks a scanner*

I've been in thunderstorms when the sky was very bright. I live in an area where we practically have weird weather XD The colors were ripped off of a photo in one of those storms. Cept the grass, which is a bit bright, I admit.
