Why the dryad cries

Why does the dryad cry? well... it would seem that the answer to that question is obvious if you see the full picture

This is an ancient sketch I did when I was in highschool. I recently decided to give it a digital brushup


As with most of my scetches from that period, it is made on checkered paper, so step one is to clean up and make layers. I usually make a background layer, a colour layer for the main objects colours and a top layer for the linedrawing. it is a very simple technique, but it works well when you have to draw with a mouse(I dont have a wacom cintiq - yet)

When the layers are made it is much easier to colour it in, almost like coloring by numbers :-)

The final result. Pretty obvious why the dryad cry I guess, But maybe she is just making up her mind to kick the puny pests away
