This was one of those fanart ideas that was a no brainer.
Happy New Year!

Beautiful work, as always, Reni! I love Merlin's coat and his serene expression. Love how the salt effect makes such a different texture for the background; it almost looks like it's snowing! Lovely job use of the metallic paint too! :D

<3 Thank you, Cello!
Ahaha, I highly doubt there's any salt technique on the background!
It's all colored pencil and watercolor dots!

LOL about the background! I laud your patience at doing all the little dots, then! :D

I had to be careful not to go dot overboard.
It got to be a bit too fun!
