Oh god not another one.
Yes, another one.
I'm still playing with these designs, and making references helps me map things out.

First things first, I definitely need input on the name. KoHaku, Ko-Haku? It's Ko and Haku, but I want the merged form to have one name, for simplicity's sake. Anyways...

I apologize for how jumbled it seems. My character references are essentially mind-maps for my designs, so everything is kind of strewn about haphazardly.

Actually had my tablet for this one, but I kept the art simple.

Upon seeing this awesome piece: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6849701

I had this silly thought.

"What if Ko and Haku's combined form had two heads? What if?"

So I rolled with it and here we are. Not entirely sold on the idea, but it definitely adds another degree of "different" to the design, and makes it a lot more fun to draw, imo.

I'm not good at drawing multi-headed things that aren't long-necked, so forgive the minor anatomical issues where the necks and shoulder meet.

Haku is the dominant personality when they merge, hence why the overall form looks more like him. Ko still has his cybernetic eyes and darkened "hair", though.

To quote a convo I had with   lumination, Ko is kind of like Haku's Tyler Durden. Except real and not a figment of his imagination.

The two can remain merged in an anthro form, but they don't prefer it due to issues with shirts and such. Also staring. Lots and lots of staring.

They also still have their entirely separate forms, which I will be getting refs of within the next year.

All of the markings go for both of them. Both have three dots under each eye, the necklace spots, and the ear spot[on both ears of course].

There's still some gecko in there, but their front paws only take on that form if they need to climb something. [If they're too lazy to fly, of course. And with Haku being the dominant personality that's more often than not!]

And despite Haku being dominant, Ko still retains his entire personality.
