As much of a kind hearted and free spirited guy Stripes is, I've always envisioned him as having more of a shadow-based ascent when it comes to divinity. He strikes me as more of a dark angel, a being who has the intent of a regular angel, but isn't afraid to do what he has to to help others (and himself) achieve a goal (within reason)

So, I gave him an outfit and color scheme I found befitting of such a title. He's mischievous and confident, and I feel that is reflected well here. I know there's a lot of black, but that's the point (besides, grey just didn't seem to fit for some reason)

The wings were a real challenge, I wanted them to look like feathers, but they kept turning out life fur. I wasn't sure how to light and shade them either, so I went with a general layered look

I've exceptionally proud of this. I hope everybody else will like this as much as I do~ x3
