I think it's time to call this finished.

Deer Looking Back

If I do much else, I fear it'll be destroyed! Lowering opacity on the lines did a great favor to make the shading come out and then finally being done with the trees and their 'bark'

The only thing now is to worry until I can give the printed version to the one who asked! XD

Isn't it nice when you discover the picture?

Deer looking back

I believe that shade of blue in the sky should really help out the shading when I get to it! And I hope it's sooner than later. There are other pictures to get to!

Edit: 8-27

Thanks to a friend's suggestion on deviantart, the sky to this image has been slightly reworked.
