Very nice work - he actaully looks as though he could fly, which many avian pictures do not represent well. And why does he remind me of a figure from a deck of cards??

Thankyou.

Getting it so it looks like he could fly was something I realy wanted,  kacey did a wonderful job with that.

He may remind you of 'Commander Eesha' from Magic the Gathering. It was one of the refrence pics I submitted to Kacey, and one of the pictures I had been using to represent my character for a while.

Wow!!!! I can not tell you haw much I love this piece.

Not only is it an awesome and prodigious character and model sheet, but it also has similarities with my character. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/1983323/ .

Sure, the species are not exact, but we are both white avians with the same use of colors. I do not know your character's biography, but mine is a Celtic fencer knight in an alternate world going to a university to an alternate America to be a knight, with a minor in management information systems.

Did I mention I like your character? Is it a kookaburra?

Jaffer has a different history depending on where I'm RP'ing him.
One of the things I try to keep consistent is his staff though.

It's not a kookaburra, it's actualy based off the Tengu from D&D 3rd edition 'oriental adventures' book, mixed with the magic the gathering card 'commander eesha'.
I like to think of Jaffer as a raven.

Sorry about that. Your character just looks like the kookaburra here http://www.sydneynature.com/birds/kookaburra.html only with complete white feathers like my character has complete white feathers instead with the usual brown added below the head. .

Interesting to have different backgrounds and all depending how you are using your character. Your characters must have coppies in alternate dimensions, aye. .

Yea. he does.

Odly, enough I didn't even have to look at the kookaburra link. I live in Australia. I hear them almost every morning.
^.^

But of course, I should of thought of that knowing that you are of Australia. . I can surely be a dunce at times. And I attempt to verify too often. Guess that is what I get for being a business major, aye.

Great Designs! ...AWESOME! ^V^

Thankyou very much..

I feel your fursona looks in this form like an avian-imperial Priest-guard

Well, the reference pics I provided Kacey were 'Commander Eesha' (From Magic the Gathering) and the 'Tengu' image from the D&D Oriental Adventures book.

So it is a fusion of warrior and priest even from the reference images.


Kacey did a wonderful job on this and I think it's perfect.

Warrior and Priest? I think he's a Paladin then :>

Almost, but he doesn't believe in any higher powers, he relies on his faith in himself and his prowess in battle.

At least in warrior'ish situations...

In more calm settings, it's a quirky bird who never really makes sense...

Perhaps I haven't read some things around your gallery, but may I ask what do/does you/he guard anyway?

I don't really know myself.

I never built a complete back story or story line for Jaffer as he is my main RP character.

I guess I just liked the looks and made explaining it a secondary thought.

Wow that is indeed wonderfully done, beautiful!

Thankyou ^.^

An amazing looking character.
I can't say I know the two things he is based from - although they look interesting. *looked them up quickly on Google*

I did think though, at first, that he was a White Raven, which made me like this even more because Corvids are probably one of my favorite bird groups.

Thankyou very much. ^.^

I have always loved ravens, which is probably why I was so drawn to those refrence images.

You're welcome. =3

Same.
Probably the reason my Fursona is part Australian Raven. XD

Cool character :D

Thankyou very much.

Omg, I love this guy. Awesome character!

Thankyou. ^.^

cute arts!

What a lovely character ^^

Thankyou very much. ^.^
