Newest entry for the 100 Art Prompt Challenge. This time the theme's "Seeing Red" and allows me to draw an original character of mine who's been on the backburner for ages (I first created him over ten years ago, but only got to play him sparingly in the now defunct WALL-E Forum JFF).
I'm kinda proud of this one, skulls aren't easy to draw and figuring out how metal would reflect light differently from bone was a fun challenge. The metal ain't as glossy as I used to make them but I still need to find my way around Photoshop tools after so long. Still, I think it's pretty good on the overall and captures the ominous feel I wanted to convey.

HellHounds are mercenary tracking robot dogs developed by the Shielders and loosely based on K-9 (particularly Military). They're not sapient, but extraordinary hunting machines, with the intelligence of especially trained dogs. Most of them are built from scratch, but Sandah here was actually salvaged from the battered remains of his old Military K-9 chassis after his ship was sieged and he fell on the battlefield. Even if it meant giving up whatever shred of personality he had developed, he willingly underwent the upgrade process and became a killing machine, lethal when unleashed, who can't tell targets from innocent passer-bys who get in his way, only answers to his Shielder sergeant, and bears solely the faintest recollection of his past - a feeble link to his old pack-mates Zorro and Soulless, who are astounded at his change.
Sandah's name and coloring are a shout out to the wolf by the same name ("Thunder" in the english version) from the Jungle Book: Shonen Mowgli anime.
The HellHounds and Shielders concept belongs to Grudir.
The K-9 concept belongs to
