Part one in a fursuit Design commission for Helvitica on FA! this character currently does not have a name, but he has a smug attitude!
The challenge was to try and make this character read as much like a welsh dragon as possible, but not sticking strictly with the design, while also keeping a on the kid friendly side. Also a very specific expression was requested and through some iteration this design was made! The cross-hatch pattern would be made by shaving fur like this: http://i858.photobucket.com/albums/ab150/Lrdkazul/Art/WP_20140130_001_zpsd2e338e0.jpg http://i858.photobucket.com/albums/ab150/Lrdkazul/Art/WP_20140130_002_zps0c24d12a.jpg and the rest of it would be various shades/lengths of red fur to give variety and texture to the overall red-ness.
This is part of a design service I offer for people who want help designing a unique character! working out specific on pricing atm
I wonder why those links are broken? try these: http://i858.photobucket.com/albums/ab150/Lrdkazul/Art/WP_20140130_002_zps0c24d12a.jpg http://i858.photobucket.com/albums/ab150/Lrdkazul/Art/WP_20140130_001_zpsd2e338e0.jpg

I'm really interested in seeing the pictures for how the fur will be cut, but the links aren't working!
Also this is a super neat design! It definitely shows what the character was meant to be! Bravo!
