Description
He really needed one. And it's an older piece that I really really REALLY wanted to finish.Chess-wolf. Is the name of the specie I have decided to name since he is more or less based on a cheessboard piece. (like his name says)
A little back story, in case you don't know it. Well, I've created this character back in 2007, with the idea of making a new character since in that time I kind of got bored of the ones I've drawn back then lol. And I really liked drawing spiky haircuts on my wolves, so I just had to add that on him.
Initially he was supposed to have a racing car markin' on his back (been a gear-head since a younger age, heh), but anyhow, one of my best friends named him Rook 'cause that's the first thing that came into his mind when he saw him lol, so since then he remained as Rook and decided to make his marking look more like a chessboard than anything else.
Why purple? Because back then I really fancied that color. Plain and simple.
That all, enjoy.
Oh yeah, and tbh I don't really think I'd draw him in a furry form anytime soon. So... yeah.

I like the middle pic with the feet literally planted on the ground to balance him, a lot better than the usual way they handle hind legs on these guys, now if only the front legs/arms were freed up a bit agile-wise...

Ahh Rook. He's kinda adorable.
Hmm... The checkerboard back would look a bit strange in furry form. Plus, I think it would take away from the cuteness a smidgen.

He looks like he really just wants to play on his ref sheet, good posing!

Yay its Rook! I love his colouring. <3 And the pose in the middle looks adorable though the feet look a bit odd. lol I'm sorry that I couldn't have been more specific.
and it'd be cool to see a drawing of Rook and his girlfriend again! The one I remember looked so sweet.
