Welp, I've been pouring with some inspiration to do some colorful and interesting scenes involving my various characters... character illustrations, if ya will, and I could think of no one I wanted to draw more today than Drakness. ^w^ My second ever Maranaga character, and my first lassie. She is large and in charge--!

--however, that doesn't mean she takes advantage of her physical and social power irresponsibly. While a powerful predator, she is very much typical for a Maranaga and is not a danger to others, even strangers, if she has no need to hunt.

And this is where the curious and playful pygmy Nubian goat comes in. :D She's always liked goats! They're charming creatures--and if you're armored with colorful scales their little hooves give excellent massages. XD

^w^; This one took just about all day, over six layers... fully done-up as far as my digital work goes. Sai... and a simple mouse... and a bunch of that determination stuff. X3

_{(Disclaimer to admins: My Maranaga characters do not have chesticles... Rating Drakness up for what is visible here would be like rating up a male human chest for having boobs... which is kinda dumb.)}
