My main piece for the EF artshow! A Masai-themed jackal. He'll be on sale there.
A few notes to say about it, for those interested. It's pretty large irl, measuring about 42cm high (16.5"). The colours are a lot nicer in real life, because as usual, I am terrible at scanning and colour adjustment. And he's done in mixed media: watercolours, Prisma pencils, and a little marker.
The reason I chose to draw this is because Eurofurence this year has the Serengeti theme. Now, I can't say I'm that keen on tribal cultures, but the one thing that interested me about the Masai was their jewellery making. So, perhaps you can think of this guy as a Masai jeweller.
The jewellery and clothing were all referenced from a whole bunch of photos of the Masai people and their crafts.
