Filler post!

It may seem like I'm slacking off on my NaNoWriMo novel, but in reality I'm working on it! ...the cover that is 8D;
Well, I haven't actually decided the exact cover, but this can serve as a character page too.

Er, ignore the weird background, it's a temp texture that I'll probably replace later when I draw in the actual forest...
I'm not done adjusting the colours and highlights either, so some of it looks off. This obviously isn't the whole image, I've got a full body shot with the skin and feathers mostly coloured in. Been working on it on and off for about a week now.

Reworked some of the colours and upped the contrast a lot =D Background still mysteriously missing *cough* You can see a peek of the fire on the edge >D
