Courtesy of the faaaaaabulous Ayato, my first piece of personal character art in what feels like forever. I'd sort of gotten over the notion of a personal character -- I enjoy character development too much to settle down on any single one, but eventually my vanity won out.

I held a poll on Twitter (I'm @alexfvance, by the way; feel free to follow!) for domestic canine species, since I basically wanted a Bad Dog version of myself. The awesomest proposal was a Mechelse Herder, aka Belgian Shepherd, aka Mechelaar, aka Malinois.

For one thing, they look badass and for another, with that many alternate names they MUST be up to all manner of nefarious badness.

So! There we go. I finally broke down. Thanks to  ayato for doing such a lovely job!
