Last time on the 2 4 1 commission progress report, I showed the selection of poses that I had for the commissioner.  They had picked the one above, which meant it was now job to do a larger rough picture of said pose.  At this point I’ll put in the specifics like face, hair accessories and such.  Anything can still change, but with these details going in, I can start to take the character in a specific direction.  And as of this morning, I got approval that my direction was fine (save a few minor details) and so I’m ready to show it to you fine people.And here she is.  Now the commissioner asked for a demon girl/anthro/thing.  They said it was totally up to me on where I want to take this character.  I consider this a very high honour because it’s a great deal of trust being put in me and my abilities.  I knew I didn’t want to do a typical demon (slick skin and such), I wanted to do a more classic devil character.  One with fur and horns, and I knew just where to get my reference.

Just last week I was talking with a friend of mine at work about Jacob Sheep.  What’s a Jacob sheep?  Why it’s a sheep with 4 horns!  Crazy I know, but these things actually exist, which is pretty damn awesome I think.  So with that I knew with out question that I wanted her to be like a Jersey Devil.

Only mine will be much cuter. ^_^
