A fantastic commission given to me by Jarickocross over on FA (https://www.furaffinity.net/user/jarickocross) that still floors me. Done as a thanks for the input I've given to him over the last several months, and likely a 'test commission' before he really started charging someone. Words cannot describe how patient Cross was with this, whereas I'm slightly picky when it comes to describing my characters, especially when I have barely any descriptions within my writings to begin with.

Though it did take him nearly two months to complete, this turned out amazing. Worth every moment of wait, and I loved how often he would send me the progress. Asking if something needed to be changed or altered, minimizing the window of error and wasted effort. Cross was incredibly understanding, and often could tell what I was getting at when I spoke of changes. Even a few things he pointed out himself that he thought didn't look quite right.

Point is, if you have a character that's somewhat... I guess, 'Sinister'? Cross does wonders. I encourage you to do two things: one, Favorite The Original [https://www.furaffinity.net/view/26109644/], and two; look into his artwork if you're searching for someone to commission. He stated that his prices will be posted soon, but even just giving this guy the attention he deserves will help him get noticed. <3

If you're interested in this character, and likely the scene this was inspired by, Rixxix is the main antagonist within the novel 1989.

It's wonderful to finally have a good reference for this guy <3 I was actually going to have a scene with him in my winter meta for 2017, but it'll have to wait until this year instead.
