Well...look at this.....

Before I say anything else, I would just like to ramble about how pleased I am with the way Raika came out. Yeah, he's only half the drawing, but all that detail I put in with all his injuries just came out great. I just...love it. I'm aware that I slacked off a little on the shading, but I really could care less about that right now. I'm completely sucked in by how well I actually drew him. This is the best part of any drawing, part or whole, that I've ever drawn. Ever. As for Neon, yeah, I'm pleased with her, too, but I didn't really try anything new or different like I did with Raika, unless you count doing the tears different, and I guess I did okay with that.

Alright, enough of me praising my own drawing. It still sucks donkey shit through a funnel compared to what everyone else can do. Let's move on to the story. Okay, Raika, Neon, Croc, etc. were fighting against something, it tried to attack Neon, but Raika got in the way and took the hit, causing him to apparently die or be in the process of dying, as seen in the picture above.

.....Yeah...you can use your imagination for some of those details. All I was thinking when I drew this was Raika, blood, clothing tears, scratch marks, messed up fur, Neon, crying, hugging him, yadda, yooda, yeah.

Still, I'm happy. So happy. ^_^
