Description
VERY FEW will truthfully remember this character. It's Chikotoree or "Chiko" for short - from my manga project 'Backlash' from waaaay back in the days of ~ruby69 even. I was scambling thru old art when I found the image to the left...a sudden spark hit me and HUZZAH out happened the one to the right. She looks much much different, but in some of the best ways to suit her place in the story.
I know there are unique qualities to both styles/techniques and what have you - but I'm not asking for critique here. This is more or less a way to look back on things. Also consider...I never, not even once, drew Chiko after I created the reference (left image) until just now- reason for the whole "neglect" thing.
I'm done; I've got to be ready for work in 6hrs. :[

This is great
I love her new head shape and the way you've drawn and coloured her ear/fins are lovely. The colours blend so well!
The muscles within her arms/wings are amazingly realistic. I love it.
Keep up the lovely artwork.

If I'd have saw the other one alone, I'd have thought it was a guy. XD So there's an improvement!! And in all honesty, I do not remember this character, but I guess three years ago I was a much bigger fan of your furry art. I still don't like feral stuff, but the render on the left is pretty damn cool. I love the shape of the face so so much~~
