Dog Tag Close Pt. 1 Version 2

Please Critique if you can!


This is a far better piece then what I had previously put up.  I am quite pleased as how this came out.  I didn't know what I could do for the metal that I wanted and as I was playing around with Effects gallery, I stumbled upon Grain: Horizontal.  And wow, did I ever like that!  But the lighting was a pain, I'm still not happy with it.

This was inspired by Sailor Moon and (in my headcannon) intended to be used by a male canine, hence that "male"ish colors.  This happened because I have a character of a male puppy that I've had since I was little and still draw him from time to time.  He's in a lot of different fandoms though I never draw him in any, just in my headcannon.  It sparked a Sailor moon Dog Tag for a pet, I had thought about doing other pet tags for other species, but I decided not to go through with it for now.


The symbol on the tag (to my knowledge) is used for Canis Major.  There wasn't a lot of information on this symbol, so I'm not 100% sure.
