minnie: I've got a question: I've read the rules and guidelines and it says that gradient overlay is not permited, but what about gradient tool? It says nothing... (though I supose it's the same) ( 5 years and 2764 days ago )

Contest Moderator: @minnie: the gradient tool is not allowed.
@rob: it has to be drawn, in theory there's no drawing rule that says it can not be animated. ( 5 years and 2761 days ago )

First I want to apologize because of this Foxy Little Thing was created with only 800 x 450 pixels wide.

It happened because I was still in the shock while hearing the heartbreaking news of my beloved aunt. She has passed away in the 17th April, 10:10 AM.

Then I just continued the entire image without realize it was painted over the concept thumbnail layer which I said the pixels was small before and the resolution was low (72 dpi screen size) also.

I hope you still love to see my tiny little creation FLT even-though it's just an ordinary digital painting after all.

P.S: the text is hand-writing with my graphic tablet. And re-uploaded with black frame: a total of 895 x 544 pixels wide. (5 years and 2758 days ago)

The idea came to my head suddenly, an ostrich! ostrichs hide their heads, like searching for something. And there is a word in Spanish "Â¡ostras!", used sometimes when people do not find things. The similitude between the written words is funny!
