I got inspired to draw this after seeing one of the (Almost) Daily Oshawott tweets by [@/FrostyAlmonds (aka, AL (With an L) on Twitter)](https://twitter.com/FrostyAlmonds) and I wanted to draw something like that, but go further and put my own spin on it. Plus, practice drawing Oshawott in various positions and different facial expressions for most of them. [Here's the tweet that inspired this drawing.](https://twitter.com/FrostyAlmonds/status/1637921957634248705)

As mentioned previously, I wanted to get in more practice drawing Oshawott, drawing them in various poses, and giving them different facial expressions. After drawing the first one, drawing the rest didn't take as long due to the fact that I was able to copy and paste various parts of their body and redraw certain parts as needed. This, of course, was done during the sketching phase of the drawing as doing it during the line art phase would've been disastrous due to the fact that the line art is a paint layer, and transforming it would greatly reduce its overall quality. (For those wondering, I don't know how to use Vector layers to draw things in Krita.)

As for the background, I wanted to practice drawing more of a perspective landscape as I haven't drawn something like this in a while. I could've gone with a sky background, filled with fluffy clouds + the sun, and be done with it, but I wanted to attempt something more and I like the way this turned out. As for the pine trees, I remember seeing a tutorial on drawing trees somewhere (Although, I can't remember where, exactly) and tried to recall the part of it where I had to break it down into its simplest shapes, and then work from there. I also messed around with one of the default grass patch brushes in Krita to add details to the trees and it worked surprisingly well, thanks to the different blending modes such as Multiply, Screen, Burn, etc.

Overall, this took several days to finish and it was a fun project! The experience gained for everything was well worth it and it'll be useful for future drawings!
