This is my belated submission for September's DAX. My Chosen was ryuu-artist, and the refs I got were kind of difficult to follow without any pictures to draw from. I never got a response when I asked for better refs, and since I don't know if she's even kicking around the 'net anymore I took a few liberties with what I wound up drawing. I used it for rendering practice, more or less, even though the texture of the fur that I did so beautifully on this didn't show up well on the scan.
