The speedwell symbolizes loyalty, fidelity, and faithful friendship, frequently gifted to express heartfelt devotion or wishing someone a safe journey.

( this wonderful and brilliant idea isn't mine, I was inspired by this post с: )

AFTER ~40 HOURS ITS FINALLY DONE AAAAAAAAA

THIS PIECE HAS BEEN IN WIP LIMBO DEVELOPMENT HELL SINCE THE FIRST OF JUNE! I THOUGHT ID NEVER ESCAPE IT

Time breakdown: Initial sketch to final sketch: ~13,5 hours (this was mostly redrawing, adding and rearranging rabbits a bunch of times) Finalised Sketch to flat colors and textured rabbits: 21+hours Importing it to clipstudio paint on my laptop and adding the rendering and final touches: ??? im guessing like 5 hours. Not sure tho since clipstudio doesnt record time spent I hope the watership down community will enjoy the fruits of my hard labor :) This is the first time ive drawn so many fullbody bunnies so i hope i did alright with the anatomy, i tried using references but it was still really hard.

I tried my best to make the designs somewhat believable/naturally colored but still making them varied and distinct from eachother

ALSO RABBITS ARE NOT DRAWN TO SCALE WITH EACHOTHER!! I prioritised fitting as many as i reasonably could on one page in somewhat interesting and varied poses. So yeah. Bunny rabbits upon ye. Now I can finally move on to other projects
