Something about two and a half year have passed since I asked Ratze for a slightly new way of presenting my fursona. Prior to then (starting September 1999 when I first found Furry Fandom) I always showed myself as an ordinary feral lion with a black mane and little special markings. Even in the form of an anthropomorphic lion I did not presented myself because somehow it felt wrong. But I rethought stuff back then at the beginning of the year 2013 and wanted to put some political views into my life as a furry. Also I started to feel myself comfortable when shown as an anthro.

You know, I am a member of the Green Party here in Germany and slightly left wing oriented. It is complicated to tell exactly because I do not like to pidgeonhole people or incidents in our world so it is not easy to find a political label for myself. The world is so different and complex. There is never a full this or that. Everything has two sides of a medal. But in general you can say I am (no more that far left that I was when I was younger and therefore more hot-heated than today) a little left from the middle oriented in the political spectrum.

I look up to many people as an example. You need role models to look up to to develope to a whole person in my humble opinion. Some well known of mine are are Albert Einstein, Nelson Mandela, El Che Guevara, Gaius Julius Caesar. There are also living and not that common know people like my father, some close and successful people around me in my job or my Green Party, my Sifu (the master who teaches me Tezentao Kung Fu) and also some furries who have done many good things for us all. It is impossible to make a full list now or if I really would be able to do so I would bore you all to death with that. Thats why I just end my listing with the name of Uncle Kage as an example of people I look up to in respect in Furry Fandom.

Some month ago I learned that Greykitty - an artist whos style I love very much - also offeres very realistic drawn artwork. So I asked her for a commission, got a slot and now she presented this masterpiece.

Thank you again so much for creating that marvellous artwork for me, GK!
