Introducing Taartok, a member of a forest-dwelling Rauna tribe and the eldest son of its chieftain. He is next in line to inherit his father's title, but so far the young male wants none of it. He would much rather be sneaking his way onto cargo airships bound for exotic lands than puttering around the village all day, tending to tribemembers' disputes and organizing hunting parties. Because of this, he is rarely found at home with his family, and more often located getting into playful, well-meaning trouble in far-off places.

A LONG overdue commission for  anbessa. He wanted me to design my own character from a species of his creation, and so I did. I had a lot of fun with this boy, though because I drew the lineart so long ago (back when I threw my 100-watcher celebration) I can definitely see some ways I could have improved. Oh, well. Coloring him was a learning process too, and I had a lot of fun with his hair. But stripes continue to be the bane of my artistic existence! *Shakes fist at*

Anyhow. This is Taartok in his skivvies, obviously. When clothed, he wears period-appropriate attire that I have concept art of, but failed to finish to my satisfaction. Hence the crappy text block on the picture itself; that's where clothed-Taartok was, but I erased him out of shame. :P I may do a fully-clothed version in the future.

Colored in openCanvas to the music of Dethklok. :P
