Description
Update time! I'm back from the dead! And no, this is not a reference to Wolverine from X-Men.My half of an Art Trade with . He wanted me to design a wolverine character for him named Cestus.
Character was described as wearing Winter Camoflague pants, combat boots, and having Amber and Bronze colored fur.
Having a good knowledge of military clothing, his wear was pretty easy.
After looking at several references of the wild critters, I sketched up a design and proceeded with the coloring. Getting the amber and bronze colors to work together was a bit of a challenge, so I threw some gold into his fur as a medium to help them blend and meld.
~RyuuShogun also mentioned that Cestus could fight with two weapons, and as it turns out a cestus is a pair of battle gloves, so I drew the character with a powerful swipe pose. I think I kinda "were-hogged" the hands though.
Hope he likes it!

'course not. Wolverine needs time to get his claws...not to mention they're at his knuckles But Cestus has them out and ready at all time
Definetly an advantage in itself.

Magnus: *Chuckles* Not at all. These wolverines have a sense of humor...they're just very direct and confrontational.
(Like those Tiger Aliens from Ben 10 I imagine. lol)

Thanks, but he isn't mine. His concept and originality belongs to ~RyuuShogun .
I just drew up this design as part of an Art Trade. ^_^

ahem.. "like" is not so much the word that comes to mind.. i luv it!
there have been various Cestus in history, usually its like a leather glove w/ metal studs or spikes in them. (ref. Deadliest Warrior Gladiator vs Apache)
but i am definitely loving the pose and all around bad ass look for him. makes me want to put him in a situation w/ everyone's favorite echida that leads to a fight.
p.s. srry for the long comment..
