EDIT: Updated with a lighter, slightly more colorful version. And here's an interesting tidbit: This is also known as the Chipotle bison because I fell asleep half-way through and scrawled "Chipotle" across the face. Luckily, I woke up before adding much more detail, so it wasn't too hard to go back and fix it.

Hrrrr.... I made this as an entry for the AIC holiday card collection. But I didn't have time to work on it until last night and it's due in three minutes so that's not gonna work. :\ And I think I worked way too dark, because it looks terrible when I print it. *fail*

Still, I think it's kind of cool that I did it in one sitting.

Mhmmm. X3 I figure he's a pretty patient guy. ... Or maybe he's standing over a heat vent.

I hate that you missed the deadline, that would've been a beautiful card. The texture of his fur and the snow are perfect. He's a very lovely bison.

I wound up submitting the design anyway. It probably won't be accepted, but in that case I'm definitely making my own cards this holiday.

Woah! This turned out awesomely!
Sucks that you weren't able to turn it in... This is really, really good. The fur clumping texture is actually what I noticed first- really awesome.
Love the snow and the little bit of grass peeking out there- life's still around, huh?
Sweet stuff!

What a gorgeous piece and an interesting animal to draw!
Beautiful detailing and snow; I really like the colors and frontal view :3

It's a pity that you couldnt enter it in time DB It would make for a lovely card.

sturmfeuer [2009-10-31 21:23:03 +0000 UTC]

Wow, the fur looks wonderful. It must already stand there for quite a long time because of the grass under its body.
I love the look.

Poor bison. But at least it makes a niffty umberella. XD Yeah. Awesome pic and I love the picture. Its nice how youve used different shades of brown on the same creature and i love the clumping in the fur .... it doesnt have ears. D:

byakuyaWhiteNight [2009-10-31 02:48:54 +0000 UTC]

Looks awesome still! Love that patch of grass under him.

And yeah I think its the monitor problem, I can see pretty much everything fine (:

Draenian [2009-10-31 00:12:14 +0000 UTC]

I don't see a whole lot of dark on my end. I can actually see the details on the head and even the fur along the front legs quite fine, I guess it really depends on some's monitors.

Either way, this is beautifully done. I love the details in the fur as well as the snow. It looks very realistic. Wonderful job ^-^
