New Art: Happy Birthday Arakin
It was ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
arakinuk's birthday on the 19th Jan and as he always manages to get me thoughtful gifts, I wanted to get him something special. However, I really couldn't think of what to get as there's not much time to think about it between Xmas and his birthday. I came up with the idea of commissioning some art for him as that would be a unique gift but time was running out as his birthday was only about a week away. I asked bluue_dragon (artist of my current default LJ icon) if he could do anything and while he said he was busy, he would see if he could squeeze me in.
Two days before Arakin's birthday, Blue messaged me to ask for details for the pic. As I'm lacking in creativity, I couldn't come up with anything better than a vague idea of my character presenting Arakin with a birthday cake and later suggested the cake be in the shape of Arakin too. However, come the next day, Blue had done a fantastic sketch in such a short time which I approved and on the day of Arakin's birthday, at around 11pm, Blue had finished the pic below:
I was worried about Arakin disappearing off to bed before I could have the opportunity to show him but I managed to keep him online :)
I'm really happy with how it turned out. Arakin's got such a perfect expression and the whole pic's really cute! I was rather amazed at how fast Blue was able to get it done so it was in time for Arakin's birthday. It may have been a little late but it still counted :P
Note:arakinuk is not a bat, he's a Dracoon-wolf thing. This is a bat.
