Steban and Martin strike again! :dummy:
uff, this piece was a true challenge to make, I must admit! It took me more than 4 days to finish it :P
Just too many details. And the worst of all: I'm horrible at drawing human-made constructions. I fail perspective sooo very hard! :ohnoes:
but one thing is true, I had fun doing this!:la:

I tried to make the lights feel like a shaded and fresh place, but not lose that western feeling. It came out... Different than I was expecting, as it usually does :)

I'm still trying to figure out a different design for Steban. I've already tried all kinds of variations possible, believe me, even making his muzzle lighter and all, but I just cannot get it right! No matter what I do, Steban never looks like himself with another color scheme :/
But no artist likes to get comments like "oh he reminds me of *insert another person's character here*". We all like to give our creations an unique feeling, and we cannot admit this kind of comment to go even near them. And as you might already know, "Steban looks like Charlie". Even though they are the complete opposite of each other. So, if you guys happen to have a good idea for his design, please, do share! I'd be very grateful! :thanks:

Thank you very much for all the support my friends, you have no idea how much it means to me. Thank you all for the amazing 1,337 faves on "Until Forever Comes" (I was surprised about how cathy the drawing's idea was for some of my watchers!), it was such a magic surprise for me when I saw it!
And thank you, in the first place, for supporting all of my stories :heart:
I can never thank you enough for that!:thanks:

I have to admit Steban did remind me a lot of Charlie Barkin when I first saw a pic of him (it was the one with him running with Martin). However, it wasnt his design so much as his facial expression. I dont know anything about the dog (havent read the story yet) but just that one look he was giving. It made me think of Charlie's personality.

Really, I think Steban's design is awesome. He looks exactly like a rough and tumble cowdog. (If you werent going for that, then sorry).

This is awesome and you're so right in that each character that is made is not the same as another, in personality in a story they might be but it's not entirely true though. I hope you don't mind but I was naming a wolf character of mine and I was meant to call him Stevan but I accidently put Steban instead and it was when I was writing so I couldn't really change it so I hope you don't mind...
Here's a picture of my Steban if you want to see:
