Please full View!
This is actually a drawing I drew and coloured when I was on veccation in New Zealand with Max ( =Illogical-Lynx ) back in desember. some people might notice that I drew Duncan [link] and Daren [link] with humaniod feets. However i've now decided to only draw digirated feets on my medival characters
Name: Azemn Irthos
species: Snow leopard
Age: unknown but assumed to be around 32 summers
Alignment: Neutral-evil
Height: 1.86 meters tall
Little is known about Azemns past nor why such a resourful person would decided to be the leader of a small time gang of bandits. In prior to being the one to plan the heists, Azemn also do most of the info gathering through bribes and small talk. Beeing a person of rather slender build, Azemn relies on speed, a mixed martial arts and all kinds of dirty tricks to keep the opponent off balance.
Personality vise, Azemn is for the most part a reserved quite person not the typical charismatic leader type one would assosiate with leaders. He rarely show little or any emotion when spoken to and can appear to others as uncaring or impassive.
Unknown to most, Azemn has also an uncanny ability to resist Magic influence of most kinds, wether this because of a strong personal willpower or training is unknown (that is not to say Azemn can take a fireball to the face and live, he just get a tingling sensation in his neck that warns him when magic is around)

I think I held off commenting this because of the fact that I'd seem it being done and that I was so impressed by it was going to be hard to write a comment that sums everything up. When you first told me you did watercolour, I'd always assumed that meant watercolour pencils so I was quite surprised that you actually carried around a paint brush and a bunch of paints.
I've always loved these reference sheets of yours, for some reason they seem to bring out the best of your drawing talent. The facial expressions are great and the colour is perfect. Poses work well too and I have to take some pride in the assumption that it was me that converted you to digitigrade legs because they suit this guy very well.
It's great that you came up with a name for this guy, and a good name it is too. Sorta exotic, but not too weird. It's also good fun to read the information you've added about him too. He sounds like a very interesting character and I can't help but think he's the sort Azura would be able to get along with (or at least respect his motivations). xD
There isn't much here for me to write critique on, since I was there when you were drawing it, although the one thing I think it might be time for me to challenge is your tendency to draw three-fingered hands. I know you've always done it because you've maintained a more cartoonish style, but you are getting a lot more realistic as you improve your skills and I feel you might be leaving it behind a bit. Up to you of course where you want to go with this.
Anyhow, excellent work, I'm very glad I got to see you in action drawing this because I think it's very possibly your best traditional picture yet.

GODDAMNED LAPTOP! i frieking hate that bloody pad in the middle since I keep pressing it when I type !!
aaaanyhnow, read this message AFTEr you read the one before this:
that friend was also a reason for me to turn to drawing hindlegs sicne he also like them more animal alike. (and yes he draws wiskers 
anyhow the point IS, a intelligent specis should be able to survive and adapt jsut as well with 3 fingers as with 4 fingers.
its only the thumb, pointing finger and long finger that are the most importaint ones for dexterity. so why is 4 fingers more realistic when any evoled specis could have made it that far?
I mean I sure would liked to have 4 sets of arms sicne that would defently been useful at times for surving
My point is that I just drawn my anthros from a differnt point of perspective in evolution, so yes Im saying SCRUE realism! realism can be quite limiting at times.

Dear Max, incase you havn't noticed fantasy doesn't have to evolve entirely around "Realism"
I actually did draw four finger at the very beginning but I changed it after suggestions from my best friend Ole, who happens to be STUPIOFYING talented good at drawing(YES it was my evny of his talent that made me start in the first place
who said to me, "Kristian I think you should try drawing 3 fingers instead, instead of 4 clumsy looking fingers. and beside, what you are drawing is a animal, not a human, so why not make him more animal alike? (he was also

"Loves to play around with his Knife." and loves money, hmmmm...He got the scars when he made a bet that he could catch his knife with his teeth. Rember kids dont try this at home.
Great work as always. I really love the color choices for him. Just wondering though about his legs are they suposed to be spotless Also how exactly does one pronounce his name?

Heh, the atypical rogue from D&D. I kind of like the background.

hehe a typical D&D rogue? well I've spent alot of time on this guy so I'm not sure I like to hear that
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Just the first impression - I was getting at how well this character could fill that role and not that he is a rogue character (Rogues in D&D are quite diverse and have the most skill attributes over all of the other classes - quite simply, the multi-tool of an adventuring group). All of the traits that are listed here regarding his ability to gather information, use dirty tricks in combat, and the ability to resist magical influence are all associated with the rogue class (Gather Information is a charisma-based class skill, and the ability to make opportune strikes and evade magical influence are special abilities that can be chosen as the rogue levels up).

fair enough you make a good point that I hadn't thought of
