At long last after much work and time spent...(LOOK AT ALL THE BLUE xD)
I present to you all Mjolnir, my very first fursona.
The first persona I ever had was a cyborg, who was drawn in the DBZ style of anime...but I have not drawn him since middle school. (maybe I'll revive his design someday?)
Anyway this is my first true fursona, as of right now he only has a feral form....and since he's in a bust style portrait I only drew his upper body...I'll make a reference to his lower half soon enough.
This isn't a true reference either...but...ehh i'll fix it sooner or later! xD
Mjolnir is a Runewolf, all of the markings you see on him are actual runes from the Elder Futhark Rune System; these all stand for something (except for the one below the largest rune on his body that's purely decorative) and were used by northern tribes such as the Vikings.
His name is derived from the largest rune you see on his shoulder, which stands for "Thor" the Nordic God of thunder...in which Mjolnir is the hammer of Thor. All the markings on his body glow, and their intensity is subject to change.
His horns, tail, and body style all take inspiration from a sort of hybrid of Mightyena and Houndoom from Pokemon (I have two special friends to thank for this hybrid inspiration)
The background features tendrils of rune magic/energy in which he has some control over and can attack enemies or threats with. The Ram like horns on his head can have the points extend to great lengths in combat, and he can use them to gore enemies with also. Like his namesake he can also use some forms on elemental lightning to attack as well.
Personality wise...Mjolnir is at first what you may consider a "loner"...he keeps to himself as a wandering lone warrior and often has a serious/scowling look on his face...but this is only a facade as he feels showing his real emotions could be derived as a weakness. In reality he's caring, sensitive, loving, and protective of the people he admires or cares about.
I was really nervous about getting everything right and giving it that "feral" feeling...as a guy who's drawn DBZ stick figures since the longest time I was not sure on how this would turn out...but I hope it's up to community standards. Hope you all enjoy~
This took 4 months of (inconsistent) work...done in MS Paint 7 with a Bamboo Tablet.

Thank you so much all of you my friends for gracing the da/FA community with your awesome artwork both past and present...without that I would have never summed up the confidence or inspiration to draw this character. <3

No steal. (then again who the hell would want to)
Edit: Also that's his tail wrapping around his body...not a chest tentacle.
Also I erased the massive amounts of fail in his right ear...looks a tad better now.

Me, inspiration? NOOOO. >(
I'm very much flattered that you were inspired some by me. I dunno what I did, but you're welcome~
Your fursona looks really neat! I love the colors used and he looks really nice~ Loving that design! I seriously love those runes on him, they look great! :3 Keep up the wonderful work now, my friend! <3

You did plenty...as I said both past and present work helped inspire me. The old candid drawings you did for the characters on Luna's Silver Star Pack role playing site...the older ones on your dA page, they really helped to inspire me do the whole feral wolf design. SSP was actually played a big role for my inspiration for the whole "Doomyena" look...
So yes you DID help, even if you don't realize it. =)
I'm so glad to see that people like him...really makes me feel that all that work and trouble in trying to finish him payed off!
It was a lot of fun to draw this too!
The horns and runes were my favorite part of doing this, thank you for your comment Kari it means more than you know~ <3

It is doubtful that i'll actually come out with a true full body image...I might make a reference to his lower half though in case some people want to sketch him...WHICH THEY DON'T HAVE TO! D8 As in a short ref to what his paws look like and such.
Yeah I was watching a friend's live stream not long ago when I submitted this, and some joked that the tail wrapping around his body for the bust portrait looked like a tentacle coming out of his chest...and I'll admit from a glance it kinda does look like that. x3
He's technically a dire sort of wolf like ol' Cephy over here. But he's a magic wielding/warrior type of wolf...also he's covered in runes so he's a "runewolf"
Those runes are part of where he gets his strength from. The big one on his shoulder means "Thor" in the Futhark runic system...and Mjolnir is Thor's hammer; hence his name.
He has a sort of Mightyena/Houndoom appearance. Luna's roleplaying site features many hybrid OCs with this hell hound design...and my character was heavily influenced from that. :3 So in way he DOES have a little poke influence.
I'm so glad you like him Musette, your comment and especially your fave made me smile. =)
