Ahhh, strategic placement of a sword hilt. What would our good friend Freud say? This is a sketch I did for a friend for a solo D&D game we did over Instant Message oh-so-long-ago, when I had a question as to what fur shade his anthro tiger ninja character was. So I sketched him lickety split, then gave some abbreviated coloring and send it off to him in ten different shades of 'tawny'. This was the one he chose.

Drawing stripes with the mouse makes the artist's hand cry. Yes, it's crappy, but it was also done solely to get down in digital ink the color of Kage's fur. Why? Because I didn't tell him I was making the next pic (to be posted tomorrow) and didn't want to let on I was making a real drawing.
