My entry for Kankakanka's and Pearleden's elements contest.
I chose the element earth once again because I felt like drawing a lot of rocks again. xD
This is definately a place I wouldn't want walking barefoot on.
Yet another picture which started as a simple random sketch and ended up like this.
A part of the tree isn't detailed because I wanted to let go from the strict lines a little bit and leave the leaves almost melt together with the sky. Also, I liked my pencil strokes there and I didn't want to draw over them. :D
I decided to treat this wolf like a dragon and therefore had more freedom to draw such details which belong to his body.
It might be "hard" stroking this guy. xD
Yet he provides a nice shadow for you!
It took me 16 hours as far as I can remember.

Wow... you see a lot of 'earth' elemental wolves and the like, but few take it this far! Very impressive, they really do feel like a part of the earth.
