Ames goes shopping [PREVIEW]

this is just a preveiw of a drawing I've been working on for quite some time now fsfhsjf it's taking so long! D8
I am pleased with the way it's coming out though, I love digitally painting without using any lines/lineart but it's always been incredibly intimidating and i usually mess it up somehow or just give up on it.

I feel so much more confident this time and am willing to give this style another try X3

this is obviously not completed yet but amy's quills, eyes and muzzle are pretty much done.

this is being painted in GIMP

(also, this is not the actual size of the completed image, I cropped the completed portion only XD)
