The Shadowed and Highlit Furret!

Flygon

This picture has taken several more days to work on than I actually wish to admit.
A special mode on the SEGA Mega Drive has been taken advantage of, called the Shadow/Highlight mode.
Whilst it is intended as a limited form of transparency, for... y'know, Shadows and Highlights, it can also be used to generate colours that the Mega Drive cannot normally reproduce.

The end result is, for a picture such as this, a distinctive 'Amiga' style gradient shading.
There is absolutely no doubt, in the hands of a more skilled artist, that some glorious things can be done in the realm of Shadow/Highlight artwork.

The lineart (https://78.media.tumblr.com/f0b4351179a74cdf7c1f8a882a26ac00/tumblr_oj0k3pahNP1sl0obro1_1280.png) for this picture has been drawn by Somnamg (Tumblr - http://somnamg.tumblr.com/ / ]Fur Affinity - http://www.furaffinity.net/user/386mg/)!

The conversion of the artwork over to the SEGA Mega Drive is performed by me, Flygon!
All other drawn aspects of the artwork are owned by Somnamg.
