Description
i'll submit this to DotW once i go to submit ruffian (and if he's accepted, hopefully!)for this month's MSE
---
after the fire, ruffian's first goal was to find water. when he did, though, he couldn't believe the sight.Β
having not seen himself at all during his childhood besides fleeting glimpses in between his work and leisure time, the two years he spent locked up in alto territory left him with no true memory of how he looked.Β
so ruffian, distraught and truly free for what was the first time in his life, broke the water's reflection in hopes of never needing to see his face again.
but instead the wound soothed over, and the panicked wolf found some form of comfort.
to this day he still believes he is not handsome, and he'll often refuse to look at his own reflection because of it.

I love how you've captured the water, it really looks like he is just plunging his face in with the large bubbles and splashes, and the color choice is great, especially with the blood coming from his face and mixing with the top waves there. The fur is really beautifully drawn as well, this might be one of my favorite pieces of yours yet!

//dies of absolute beautifulness
jesus that looks so fucking awesome Daws
the lightning, his expression, ahhh everything ;w; I love it to the detail of the rocks falling to the bottom to the soft red of his blood tainting the surface of the water. ORZ teach me
poor Ruff though, he should know he's handsome af and that scar only makes him more of a lady killer
