Yeah, everyone else was doin' it, and my last one got kinda cluttered, not to mention I've improved a bit since those pictures on my front page. So, we'll kick this new thread off with my half of an art trade with the lovely Della:
I don't have Photoshop, so those snazzy light-reflecting-off-water effects aren't mine. A good friend will add the ripple effects for you. A TRUE friend will add them at least 5 different times until it's just right.
Thanks so much Silvanus, and sorry again for the hassle! xD * Also mad props to Dakota Spirit for suggesting the river reflection idea in the first place!
Anyway, I saw that Della mentioned seeing a 'shadow wolf' in one of her lil' imagination adventures [at least I hope she did ._.], so I drew her here imagining that she sees Wolfbane on the river's surface. The Alice and Chiaroscuro reflections are legit, but who knooows if the Dark Lord is really there? :O
Hope you like it, Della!

You really outdid yourself on this one Hyde! It looks great! I love all the detail, the linework, everything! Della will love it! Not to mention, what a cool idea for a pic.
And the ripples were no prob. ilu. <3

HOLY LOTS OF BAD WORDS THAT I SPEW WHEN I'M EXCITED, BATMAN! Hyde's done it again!
Dude, the way that you captured the secret, only slightly hinted to, nut-side of Della is amazing, and I admire you for that. Della would totally have an encounter with Wolfbane; especially one that is unclear, and possibly imagined and reflected back to her.
The way you captured this scene is really good. Roscuro and Alice looking so happy in the picture (I find it sadly ironic that she's staring blankly at what could be her own reflection) really makes me feel like I'm in an everyday scene, for a blind wolf and a grudgling pup certainly wouldn't notice Della's sudden visionflashthing.
I think I've mentioned before that I love the tones you use. And I don't know if I've ever mentioned this before, but I absolutely love this site's interpretation of Wolfbane. It's so deliciously...Wolfbane.
Now I have to go fight crime.
And nuggle.
LOVE YOU FOWEVEW FOR DIS HYDY
Dude it's 2 in the morning and there's a half-naked guy on my bed and I apologize for how crazy this post is I'll do a more constructive one on DA.

Posting a comment here as well.
This looks awesome Hyde! I love the way you draw and the coloring and shading is superb! Della's expression is priceless. I was laughing at the fact that Chiaroscuro and Alice look all happy and Della's so (fdfghjkjhgfd) scared I guess for lack of a better word.
Nice ripple affect by the way, Silvanus.

Thanks Gen <33 @ Silv- ilu2 ;_; @ Shadow- That's okay, yo don't have to find a new word xD Your speechlessness is flattering enough, I swear! :D @ Della- That's what I was thinking, about Alice. How tragic that she would never be able to place much merit on Della's exaggerated visions. :[ They're both so blissfully oblivious. I couldn't pass up the urge to draw Wolfbane ;)
Glad you like it, Alice and Roscuro- I tried to fit your personalities in so they'd provide a nice contrast to Della's 'fksajlkdfskla' look xD

*bows down to the great hyde and the great hyde art* I am not worthy, I am not worthy, I am not worthy.....
Ok seriously, great job on this and all your work. Is it just me or is your art style devloping to be similar to Silvanus' art style? Then again I'm not the right person to make that kind of judgement, but your art and Silvanus' look really similar, especially as of recent.
Great job again. *Nominates Hyde for the drawing team of Balto 4*

Oh, Hyde! <3 I love that pic so much, despite what it means for Mr. Hobbles! I'm really looking forward to the thread, and the picture just really makes it come to life. And you even remembered his bad leg! Excellent job as usual!
