This was a commission for Shichigatsu, an awesome guy with a black tiger character whose stripes run AGAINST the normal grain of his fur. It was definitely a challenge coming up with a way to accurately show that, but it was such a unique idea that I was happy to tackle the challenge. :3 I later did a really awesome icon for this guy too!
