Description

-------------
"<From the water that gave birth to us,> I said, and dipped my right forehoof into the water. It was the beginning of the morning ritual.

<From the grass that feeds us,> I said, and moved back to crush a small tuft of grass beneath the same hoof.>

<For the freedom that unites us.> I spread my arms wide.

<We rise to the stars.> I looked with all four of my eyes at the rising sun.

I bowed low. <Freedom is my only cause. Duty to the people, my only guide. Obedience to my prince, my only glory.>

<The destruction of my enemies, my most solemn vow.>

I straightened up again, then assumed the fighting stance. <I, Aximili-Esgarrouth-Isthill, Andalite warrior-cadet, offer my life.>
With that, I drew my tail blade forward and pressed it against my own throat..."

We can't tell you who we are. Or where we live. It's too risky and we've got to be careful. Really careful. So we don't trust anyone. Because if they find us... well, we just wont let them find us.
The thing you should know is that everyone is in really big trouble. Yeah. Even you.

My first real art! hah! Drown yourself in the awe...and despair! Cry like a lost child! Because my art...is a BLAST!
alter ego: "shut up, nutcase. That's copying twice"
me: "no. I taught ole deidara all he knew..."

This art could not have been done without the help of :iconyosasu13:, :icongoku-yoh-luffy:, :iconshadsonic2:, :iconimjustajoke:, and :iconvindel14: original size = 1280 * 1024. Time taken : Enough to finish Final Fantasy Crisis Core. (Well almost)

I loved Ax, he was a favorite of mine. I remember reading about the mornign ritual. you're captured it perfectly.

You've also rendered the muscles and fur very well in this. My only criticism is that I think you've put too much muscle on the arms and upper body.
