This was one of my entries for an adoptables contest on DA for Dorosheva-E (http://dorosheva-e.deviantart.com/). I won him by the way XD. This is Dorosheva-E's original species, called No-Faces.

This is a No-Face adoptable that I named Nitro as a puppy (as you can see from the floppy ears :) he's not at the age where they stand upright on their own yet). No-Faces have blank masks when they are born/very young, so he is just at the age at which he gets his face markings.

Done in pencil, then pen, and colored with Prisma colored pencils

---Nitro's Biography (created by me)---

Name: Nitro (short for Nitrosyl)
Sex: Male (juvenile)
Species: Bioengineered for Warfare

This is Nitro, but all the guys on base call him "Jimmy". "Jimmy" was bioengineered by the government to be used as chemical warfare.

He has no face because the poisons that run through his body would have irreparably damaged the soft tissues in his face (eyes, nose, sinus, mouth), and so they simply made a durable mouth for him.

He practically drips poison - his claws and saliva are poisonous, and his breath acts as a poison gas. However, you can still pet him and he is incredibly friendly. Nitro does not produce his own poison, and so nitrosyl chloride is supplied to him via the pack on his back. The military also feeds him poisons and venom to make his saliva and claws more potent.

All of the military personnel on base love Nitro. He has to stay outside (in his own personal, posh, government doghouse) because in enclosed spaces his breath would knock everyone out lol. To use Nitro, personnel air-drop Nitro near enemy bases or foxholes. Due to his naturally inquisitive and friendly nature, he tries to "befriend" the enemy and coincidentally kills them or knocks them out.

He thinks that he is a regular dog and has noooo idea that he is dangerous or deadly and WILL try to lick your face XD
