Another WIP tonight as i'm still working away at commissions...
Tiv and 'Hanner's story happens about 100-200 years after Emma and Ashes's story. Most of my anthro stories take place on the same world...it looks a bit like ours for a reason...but the chronology is a bit out of joint.
This story happens around something like our World War I...but rather different... The Feline nations this time...Tiv is a farm girl whose village was slaughtered in the early stages of the war. 'Hanner is a "Ranger" - a soldier/investigator/judge/executioner - a knight, so to speak...They meet on the road...Their social status is a barrier, but...
And then full scale war breaks out, and 'Hanner is called to the front...
i put up a WIP of this a couple years ago:
http://www.furaffinity.net/full/5795892/
The idea with that one was that were very much in shadow, lit only backlight and a little bounced light....Eventually i had to give that idea up - it was just too dark...so i changed strategy and made them more lit up and the sky and distant city darker...
Eventually i will have to re-draw the background to fix perspective, windows etc. Then re-paint it as a separate level. Sometimes it's quicker to start over than to try and fix a rough. i think i can continue to rework the character at least.

There are reasons why their world's technology etc are a little chronologically different, which will be explained in the Emma and Ash story - e.g., they don't have sailing ships durable enough to cross most of the extremely turbulent oceans - so their version of discovering the 'new world' takes place with lighter-than-air craft - dirigibles and such, with ship-like wooden gondolas...
Some of the technological things that result from the Emma story continue here - the air-ships have become more like Zeppelins - used in war for bombings...So this story has a sort of mixed feel - sort of like the lead-up to WWI some parts like the battle of London in WWII....Some of the cultural aspectsa are more like the 1860s etc.

Oh...thanks for the explanation. I'd forgotten about the technology in Emma & Ash's world. I'd love to me more of this world.
Most of my furry stories are set in this world, and another nearby....Actually hard sci-fi, not fantasy - alla Gallacci. Big C.J.Cherryh influence on ideas...
A few other stories are in another universe, so to speak, with what-ifs and magics....
Some stories i'm not sure which world they're in...
i'll prolly only have time to do a few of them...."life is short and art is long" - not that i have any immediate health threats, but i have enough stories to fill a few decades and then some...
