Description

A scene from my book, or story, or whatever-- the white dreadwolf, an outcast of the pack, nameless at this point since it's early, has gotten into a fight with the alpha male dreadwolf. Obviously he doesn't do so well. DeCry, the alpha female, hears what's going on and stops the fight, standing over the fallen stranger dreadwolf to protect him. She's giving her mate the bitch-eye.

OH MY GOD. I AM SO DONE WITH THIS.

It's 1:30 in the morning. Six hours after starting this damn doodle, I am hallucinating. My Mountain Dew was steaming or something, I am not making this up. Oh yeah, and I resized the *.PSD to 20% its original size and SAVED IT. Then realized what I did. DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT! And of course after that I see the shadow on the white wolf isn't matched up, but it won't line up in Photoshop by moving his Shadows layer because... it's skewed... warped... somethin'.

Anyone got resizing tips to blow it up again and not have it look like crap? I used a high-dpi resize and it still looks like fuzzy crap.

Definitely looks like the alpha male went to far, the white dreadwolf will be thanking DeCry later. The scene is still very cool even with the mistakes you pointed out, you did a nice job with the bitch-eye look she's giving her mate.

I don't know how right the alpha is leading if he's willing to do this to anyone that opposes him, I mean I can see where he's coming from, not wanting to lose his position and if he lets the white dreadwolf live there'll always be the possibility of him coming back again. But, if I saw this, I'd be very tempted to challenge him right now.
