Arid Cleansing

As Sergals live in very water-poor environments, such as the tundra/taiga and desert, dust and dirt is the next best thing.

A commission in collaboration with Goldblaze on FA of Nephis_Dragon's Sergal character, Nivalis. I really love how the dust turned out, as well as the color palette! This was a great opportunity to work with a creature I never really worked with before, and a great exercise in humanoid proportions - thank you, Nephis!

Initial pose and sketch was created by Goldblaze; Alteration of pose, lines, and color finished up by myself.

Media: Photoshop CS4
Time: 3 hours
