Analog pencil sketch commission by
vrass
Don’t be fooled. Just because he is a furry anthro does not mean Grimm lives by any code of honor nor is he a nice and cuddly guy. Grimm lives and thinks like a wolf. He must not risk to be injured, because an injury can lead to his death. And when he is dead he can no longer be of use to those he cares for, those he sees as his “pack”.
That’s why Grimm would seldom attack openly. Confront his opponent face to face would always be his last option. When he is out to kill, he would always try to kill with his first strike and finish his work swiftly and silently. Grimm would not see this as murder, but as necessity, without hate, fear nor excitement.
When I saw vrass’ drawings I knew at once that he’d be the right artist to show Grimm’s darker side. The side that (as far as I understand furry fandom) is not that compatible to the friendly, cuddly and frisky picture a lot of furries seem to have of their persona. Nevertheless for me this dark side, this side that is so hard to understand for me as a human is a very important part of the character Grimm.
Vrass offered analog pencil sketches – and gladly he accepted my commission: Grimm, pressing his back against a wall. His face has a calm expression, no anger, no fear. When he is about to ambush Grimm will be always calm and almost painfully clear and concentrated. His head is turned to one side, ready to leap around a corner of the wall. One of his daggers is already drawn. So all in all he seems to be hiding, waiting for his prey to come closer to the corner.
When I eventually received vrass’ work, I couldn’t believe my eyes. He had managed to nail Grimm’s nature and character with every single stroke of his pencil. And there is no compliment in the world that could praise this picture better than this. Thank you, vrass.
Grimm is a very hard character to get into. He has no doubts, no second thoughts. He always seems to know where he stands, does not think in shades of grey as humans always like to do. His only thoughts are focused on those he cares for. If you are familiar with D&D roleplay you could see his alignment as lawful neutral – only trouble is… the laws he lives by aren’t necessarily compatible to human laws.
