After long consideration, I have now returned to the Fennox. The Fennec was very sweet, but I could not cope with the tininess and the long ears. (Didn't feel right, and partner pictures between me and my sweetie looked like Djakuma could crush me with a paw v_v')

Now I can paint cuddle pictures again without him being totally huge squeezed on the picture xD

I edited the sheet a bit to not have to repaint everything. The ears have become a little smaller. Ruki never had gigantic Fennec ears, but I have adjusted them.
I love red foxes a lot more, but my change at the time was due to things that happened in RL and I needed them badly. And now if I went back to red fox, some people wouldn't be able to tell my OC's and my Sona apart. Like with Abby and Ruki back then. So to avoid that, this is how I'm trying to do it now.
