Under the cut just to be safe.

This is Abomine, my fursona/mouthpiece/mascot/whatever, the character I use when I'm wandering around and chatting in the public maps of FeralHeart.

I submitted this to FeralHeart's Art Contest and I'm already getting some comments of "This is very unusual for FeralHeart. This looks more like something for The Endless Forest." (FeralHeart is primarily a game for canine and feline characters, which is why my character is 'unusual', though I'd like to believe that other animals besides wolves and lions are perfectly welcome on FeralHeart.)

As you can imagine, I abused the hell out of the smudge tool in Gimp, but I think it was worth it in the end. It made some decent-looking grass.
