Description
Latest Update: January 19, 2014 (wow it's almost been a year since the previous update! Haha [January 24, 2013])Graphic Novel: Genesis
In short, HE GOT BIGGER. And I finalized his design!
I have to go sleep but I'll edit description and add the proper info from the old reference (might have tweaks) later!
HIS OLD NAME WAS GENESIS (LACUS). Explanations later as well xD!!!
Right well... hope you like him He's one of my personal favorites!
Also some reminders:
-For an accurate size comparison to the other Genesis characters, please visit this: capukat.deviantart.com/art/Gen… (needs to be updated)
OLD DESCRIPTION BELOW: (SUBJECT TO CHANGE)
Background: (details excluded to them either not being worked out yet or to be released as the story/novel progresses) Lacus has no known parents or family members. He chooses/has the physical image of a Caspian tiger though he is almost triple in size as one. Although his age is unclear it's estimated he's been around for the equivalent of a few thousand (5,000-20,000? maybe more) human years though his personality at heart still reflects that of a 27 year old human. He belongs to a family of god-like beings that embody abilities within them allowing them to control certain aspects of certain things; Lacus's being water.
After a trajic event (details excluded), a human girl of around 21 _____ (insert name here, lol), ends up questioning her own reality and the two end up traveling together in search of the meaning of everything.
His story is not one of lust or love really, focusing more on sci-fi. Lacus can choose which physical form he wants to appear in- including humans.
A very hard and personal bond forms between the human girl___ and Lacus....(?)
Sneak Peak into the Future:
He has a son, named Prius, who's a white (Caspian?) tiger and who's small, overly curious, companian _____.
Prius has no known mother (?) and is rebellious by nature. He goes on his own adventure (and stars in a future novel as a sequel to Genesis).
More details not worked out/excluded.
The story behind his creation: Haha well honestly this isn't the most impressive 'burst of inspiration after long thought' that you might think xD I was browsing a school encyclopedia and as always I flip to any animal section, this time the Tiger. I came across the Caspian Tiger and found them such beautiful animals I had to sketch one!! Obviously designing one as my intention.
After looking them up in google in an attempt to find refs for anatomy, I found out they died out in the 1950's. A rather devastating result
His main role will be one of the two main stars in Genesis :3 Enjoy, and happy reading <3 I look forward to releasing the story!
DRAW ON!

Yes, it's sad how many animals have gone the way of extinction in just the last century or so alone! And mostly, if not all to human over-hunting and interferance.
I've always found the Thylacine, or tasmanian tiger to be such an interesting animal. I wish i could have gotten to witness one. =[
Very lovely design. I will be looking forward to the additional human character and the story to come

I know that Genesis is a Caspian Tiger, but here is a new Tiger OC I have that's species was inspired by Genesis, she is a "HydroTiger" meaning most of the time they swim. She also has fur that when wet, reflects light and shines with a green glow. Credit was given. Hope your not mad at me for not asking first :/ [link]

I agree with you all the way. Humans are so selfish. You just explained what I couldn't explain with words, I am still on the animals side no matter what. I just wish I could just run away from home and live with them. I'm just speaking what I feel.

Beautiful animals. I;m not that type of human though. I was vegetarian for 6 months because of the fact of this. Then beef jerky happened, but i have sworn off hunting and do what I can to help. Tigers are amazing, and this one is beautiful.

Technically, the last Caspian tiger (this species is also known as the Turan tiger or Hyrcanian tiger) was seen in the delta of Amudaria in 1957. Amur tiger is their closest living relative.
Also couple of note: Lacus looks adolescent - adult tiger had hairier belly and throat.
And make his bottom jaw bigger. It's a tiger you know, not a cat.
PS
For the love of all things good and beautiful, who taught you to put black text on dark background? Not everybody have good eyesight. Please, make text lighter.

oh hehe yea I usually draw canines more often so any type of cat is a challenge to me ^^
and yes that was a mistake on my part c:
the brightness of my computer is usually very high and colors for me are easy to distinguish
haha I just get annoyed by white text at times ^^

Charanty In reply to Capukat [2012-08-24 23:28:20 +0000 UTC]
I have exactly an opposite situation XD
Just remember that dark background do not go with dark text and light background+light text.
Light blue would also do.
