Bal's tail has changed! Check here;
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3026814

I've been working on this on and off for a couple of weeks now, sketching a pose then leaving it to go do something else. It went through a lot of drafts, with many sketches being thrown out (which is why it looks so empty)

I feel this is a real improvement from the first sheet, http://www.furaffinity.net/view/2694615/
Bal's had a massive (and much need) revamp in terms of character. He was so 2 dimensional before it was painful and he just wasn't 'inpsiring' at all.

I started thinking about giving him a voodoo aspect but than that kinda turned to victorian charlataism, an area I'm quite found off, mostly due to imagery. So now he's inevitably become you're 'old school magicain' type, certainly not David bloody Blaine.

Seeing as he's an alternate 'sona, I wanted him to really be quite manipulative and crafty, whilst Neocotic is harmless and unassuming.

I used my own textures for once too! That backgrounds my wallpaper :)

So enjoy before I decide I hate this in a few weeks time!
