Description *9/20/08 - A Daily Deviation?! I'm... just wow. Thank you so much everyone! Thank you =engelkatze -- I'm really glad you liked the piece.

Oh also! To those that may be interested, here are some images of when the work was in progress: [link] [link] [link]

*8/20/08 - Updated the image, as it's had some revisions!

---

It's finished! Woo! I'd say it took me around 12 hours total, although it took much longer because I get distracted.

I learned a lot with this piece! It's the first digital one I've ever really attempted without linework, and I'm really pleased with how it turned out.

I'm not entirely happy with the clothes, which makes me think I should do some digital cloth and clothes studies. I think I may! The fur and wing parts came surprisingly easily and naturally, however. I enjoyed painting them entirely too much. ;D

I hope to get quicker at painting!

But yes! This is Remus (=engelkatze ), and it is for his art/portrait contest. I hope he likes it!

This is wonderful, but to me it seem like his head doesnt fit on the body right, but thats a minor flaw to a great deviation!!!!

Ever heard of Harry Potter? The character Remus Lupin? He's a werewolf? And this guy here is a wolf?

engelkatze In reply to GURGLEGUY12345 [2009-06-08 14:48:34 +0000 UTC]

I loosely based Remus' character on the Roman myth of Remus and Romulus, two brothers who were raised by wolves. He's got a backstory, as well: [link]

Lupin's name also comes from the Remus/Romulus myth.

*Shrugs* People who create fantasy novels and games like to base character names and weapons off of old myths, so it's no surprise. Like Sirius Black is named after the constelation.

Absolutely Gorgeous! I have been working on a si-fi story for some time. One of the anthro characters near the end is named Remus. This is very close to what is in my mind's eye! A delightful synchronicity!
