Charmed, I'm Sure

Ma Ha Suchi, working his mojo like usual.

I've been eager to do some more color work since my last attempts (fav.me/d6nchr4 and fav.me/d6nqc19) but none of the previous lineart that I have lying around, despite being a huge pile, jumped out at me as the next thing to work on. In my search, however, I came across the original version of this, an old First Age Exalted drawing where the Wolf of Red Roses encounters Czera of the Crystal Waves (the past incarnation of the Saint Amongst Steel Graves, before that whole Abyssal nonsense). I had kept the sketch around because I keep most everything, but the original had MAJOR issues (and considering some of the things I let slide and just post, that should say a good deal about it) so I decided it needed to be re-drawn first. Generally I kept things true to the original, except where repairs were desperately needed.

I'm much happier with this version, but what I'm really looking forward to is the possibility of coloring it. Hopefully I'll find time to do so soon. <fingers crossed>
