I'd originally intended this to be a piece of gift art for Wookiee. It was going to be his Nakira character, in armor, with a nice ray gun and stuff.

Then I couldn't find any pictures of the character, not even in my own archives. It was about 3 am by that point, and I was in no fit shape to invent armor from memory.

So instead it's just a lion in loinclothing. Not Nakira... hence... Nokira.
