Done did it again

Description

More Julian doodles. These ones were picked out of my sketchbook and then lazily colored in Photoshop.

Took me a long time to find a shade of pink for his nose but I done did it.

I'll update his ref sheet eventually.












People are going to copy/trace the hell out of that snarl in the corner. I'm calling it now.

Just for everyone to know until I can get a ref sheet of him up: his ears aren't actually cropped. Julian's a werecritter, he's not going to take himself to a vet's office to get his ears mutilated. In his universe (in a blatant shoutout to the World of Darkness Tabletop RPG Werewolf: The Apocalypse), werecritters are not supposed to breed with each other- the gene that makes one a werewolf gets doubled up and messes everything up genetically, so you get weird deformed babies. Weredogs aren't actually a species- they are instead deformed werewolves. How a baby werewolf gets deformed is generally random and not related, so you can end up with two weredog siblings that are totally separate breeds. They're not actually breeds, just a random collection of deformities that occasionally ends up looking like a particular type or breed of dog, if that makes any sense.

Long story short, Julian's ears aren't actually cropped, they are really just really really deformed erect ears that happen to look cropped because I'm an artist and I do what I want. Point is, they don't behave like cropped ears- they are more mobile than real cropped ears on an actual dog would be. Much more floppy and reactive to his moods, more like Scooby Doo's ears than like an actual Great Dane's ears.

I tell you all just because I put a lot of god damned thought into this character, so you're gonna deal with some god damned details.
