the hardest part of this picture was definately the gaia dragon in the background. thems the main big fishes in my story, and they are huge, and really hard to color XD. i had myself wishin' i hadnt done quite so many little bits and bobs on it's design, but i love how it came out ;.;. there's a followup picture to this one where you get to see aaron too, although he is in fact in this picture too! three guesses as to where!?! yarrr.

yes, aleda's trying to end his life here. no, he doesnt succeed. and no, he didnt summon the dragon either. promise of hope and its characters/big freakin' fish dragons are mine, and this lil production was had by open canvas 4 + on the linart, and photoshop 7 on the coloring. wheeeee! *dies*

edit: *squints* wow, that's a tiny thumbnail!!! Oo;
