Second concept drawing for the character redesign!

I've had Zoe for a while, although with no name. She originally had just one idea I was basing her off of that I really liked, but there really wasn't enough in her design to get attached to or enjoy drawing her. I almost sold her in fact, but I just couldn't because I still really liked her personality and wanted to do something with it.

I finally figured out what to do with her though!

Ended up mixing together a lot of things that I both just liked and were also really important to me personally. The most obvious inspiration is probably Bowie, specifically his performance in Labyrinth. I kept the species as maned wolf but also added a bit of striped hyena too. Finally, I wanted her to have a more electrical vibe so I looked at a few pokemon to get the colors and patterns right.

Normally I don't write quite this much in my descriptions, so sorry about that! I've had her for a long time and had a lot to say about her :>
Super excited to do this gal's ref~
