Description Northwind's Ref was in need of updating, and I went ahead and gave him a bit of an updated look. Yep...only two coat patterns, the brown one for spring and summer, and the red for fall and winter. Hair is now optional!

You: A BIT?!? Is that even the same character?!?!

Me: ANYWAY ON TO THE INFO.

Name: Srilian shah Hayaru Wind-from-the-North
Meaning "Blue Sky" a male of the Hayaru clan, born when the wind blew from the north.
AKA: Northwind
Gender: Male
Size: Average for his kind, which is about half again as large (1 1/2) as a normal Wolf.
Species: Barokan Wolf
Relatives:
Mother, Rohsah shan Freejah Waves-crashing-against-the-cliffs.
Father, Kuroj shah Hayaru His-eyes-like-fire-and-ice.
Older Brother, Arikan shah Hayaru the-icy-gale-blows, nicknamed Glacier.
Twin sister, Lilanthe shan Hayaru The-forest-comes-to-life-after-the-long-winter.
From: Baroka, in the northwest corner of the White Forest
Pack Rank: None, wanderer.
Mate: None
Children: None
Love: Tierra/Illuminata (Same wolf, different names)
Personality: Rather quiet, introspective. Not one to make a decision in haste. Prone to moments of humor. Equally prone to moments of solemn melancholy. Not easilty angered, and controls it well when he is.

New style...critique, por favor?

So this is the new Northwind, eh? I will enjoy trying to draw him in the Art Trade!

Nice anatomy, and awesome job on the fur colors and shading--especially on the 'ortraits.'

By the way... you don't mind if I add a scarf or something, do you? I'll try to not let it cover that awesome stripe on his chest. :3

Yup! I thought there was too much going on in the old design. Lol.

Thank you!! I looooove drawing faces. Bodies are boring. XD

Any accessory is fine.

shoren18 In reply to Seiken-jiyuu [2007-09-30 19:28:27 +0000 UTC]

Kinda, just a little. :3

Faces are fun, but now that I'm getting better at wolf anatomy, the bodies are more interesting/less frustrating. X3

Tissues could be considered accessories, right? -.^

Luckeh! >w< I don't have any allergy medicine... but if I have, like, an attack de la allergies, we get some, obviously. I usually only have to take medicine when I get strep throat every Fall and Winter. Otherwise, it's just your general over-the-counter decongestant stuff.

Considering how well my procrastination demons handle my deadlines... I'll probably have my half finished by then, too.

The white stripe is actually a scar. How did he get it? You'll find out! In...some chapter of A Wind from The North. Whenever I get around to writing it.

Me = Like!!! I like the two fur colors, now. :] PRETTYFULAGJDK.

Haha.

Also, a little critique here: The necks could be a little shorter, and the ears a little widerish. Haha. Is that a word? But anyway, it's really good besides those things! <3 GOODJOBLOL.

Thanks! I get a lot of comments about shortening necks--I should really look at that, lawl. And I see what you mean about the ears...maybe I was trying to make them too aesthetic and took them past reality...? I wouldn't doubt it, knowing me.

THANK YOU AGAIN MAH LUVER!

Northwind: What the...? Sei, why must you make all sorts of horrible things up about me....that's not how I am!

XD THANK YOU! I'm really glad it turned out well! ^^ I liked the red coat best out of the ones from before, so I kept it. And as for the summer coat, that one is closer to the original "Northwest" back in the planning stages for this guy.
