This is a nice digital draft/sketch by Andante_nil_Sen of my 'sona Auric wearing a fancy outfit and holding an apple blossom. In this draft Auric's head shape looks like an African golden wolf but in the final version he looks more like a Eurasian golden jackal, which is fitting for the historical Ukrainian outfit he is wearing. I really liked both the draft and the final versions so I'm going to post both for comparison.

The apple blossom is very nice detail and a subtle reference to the Semargl/Simargl/Simurgl/'simuran' legends from pagan Slavic mythology about a winged canine that is a protector of plants / guardian of vegetation.

Here is the posting of the final version in Andante_nil_Sen's gallery: http://www.furaffinity.net/full/19024142/ Andante_nil_Sen does take commissions in this style and other styles as well (including graphite/pencil sketches, colored pencils, digital sketches, and full digital illustrations) and they are reasonably priced.
