Description
Lots of changes!!!Some extra info:
Name: Aroche
Nickname: Arrow, Apache (both names used as fake aliases due to her battle prowess. She felt her real name was much too easily traced.
In battle she can make projectiles with metal ores though it depends on the type of metal to how efficient and deadly the weapon is (softer metals = brittle/malleable weapons) thus the name 'Arrow' from this frequently used battle tactic. 'Apache' came from her travelling and hunting near Athapaskan tribe battlefields and graveyards at one point in her long life.
She's more suited to dry areas or mountainous regions where you can find a lot of ore in the ground. It's where her powers work best due to the amount of metals in the ground. Her short coat is dense and easily adaptable, but still not the best for cold conditions. She prefers not to however to use her powers as they drain her energy and pierce her flesh if used for long periods of time. They also make running fast difficult because the claws dig into the ground. She prefers using her horns (since her mask protects her skull from heavy damage), fangs and normal claws to fight and hunt.
Ask me if you have any questions!
Idea for the awesome long claws from ~Qorr (check out her vetrode, Lucan... who is Aroche's son too!)

Thank you so much! c: Glad you like it
I personally love both forms but I think the wolf form needs to be tinkered with a little more cuz the anatomy is bothering me a little!

Do I sense some *Sullivan brushes in there ?
I absolutely adore the canine forms anatomy
And as a quick critique her feline tail looks a bit too short, but I couldn't find any vetroder ref sheet so it's hard to tell c:
What does she like to eat ?

sdjhadh laaaate reply
d'awww thank you nike!!!
Last time I made the tail too long so Seismostic told me to make em shorter
Hmmmm she likes to eat gazelle and deer the most... their very easy for her to hunt too because if she lies down she'll blend in with the gazelle herds... until she pounces and rips their throats out >D

Wow i quite like this character and the ref sheet. You got the anatomy perfect i think...im not sure about the feline paws but the canine paws look amazing. Apart from that, it all looks great to me.

Thanks! The canine ones are the ones I'm not so sure about ;n; actually on the whole subject of paws. I can never decide what style to do them in! Like really big and powerful? Or dainty and nifty? Or super realistic? Or stylistic and perfect? idk...

I always end up doing mine the lazy way. Draw a triangle with lines dividing the toes up...that or curvy round toes...probably depends on the charcter....OMG I JUST REALIZED. i've never tried like really fuzzy paws. I need to give that a try...

Oooooh she's charming! I LOVE me that color pallet! The dorsal stripe and the little brown dippy stripes are awesome! Plus your anatomy is becoming so sound and awesome! I LOVE how strong and sturdy you make legs! Amazing job AND character!

Thanks!!! I have an obsessive thing about characters that are blue and brown 8D
THE POWER OF REFERENCE IMAGES is very obvious here. Thank you again though!!!

Thanks! Glad you like it C: Aroche is one of my favorite characters. One of the only first ones I made that weren't adoptables or designed by someone else.
