I thought it was time not only for a new character sheet, but for a couple small changes. I've added dark brown eye dots and markings around the eyes for more contrast in facial expressions, and it's spiffy looking. Also, new details on Wolf Nymph's background. Wolf Nymph isn't really her name, it's more of her title, like 'archduke' or something. For now, her name will be the same as mine, until I find something other than 'Katie' that both suits her as a character and a representation of me. She's no longer a pure wolf, but a wolf/dog mix (thought still mostly wolf). Anyone who knows German Shepherds can see her quadruped form has that classic gait of theirs, the lowered hindquarters (more slinky appearence). But she also has a multitude of other dog breeds in her blood, like akita, irish setter, and a ton more unnamed or unknown. Kind of a tribute to my very own mixed and slightely mysterious blood (mostly english, irish and italian, with scattered scottish, norwegian, german and native american).

I'm sure you can tell her digitigrade legged form is much shorter, I was trying to go more for animal proportions than the plantigrade legged version. I didn't include that she has long hair the colour of the darker fur, if hair is included in whatever picture. And as far as clothes go, I wear either mostly (or all) black, or earth colours like tan and sage green. Comfortable 'skater/surfer girl' type clothes, relatively simple, or flowy comfortable hippy kind if clothes. I am always wearing that pendant that my boyfriend gave me, even if I don't draw myself wearing it. I have other necklaces, like my owl feather pendant, and a bunch of wolf pendants, I tend to stay towards the simpler side with jewelry (and usually silver).

She's very nicely drawn. Most importantly, you seem to have put a lot of thought into her. The colouring works very well.

You may want to ignore the... foolish... comments...

Wursu Says:

That's really nice, to show all her forms in the same reference sheet - Why didn't I think of that? This is a veyr pretty character design, she's so pretty and her colours are awesome. Got to love those bright, green eyes.. You're so good with canine anatomy. I like how you did her digitigrade form, so cute and wolfish ;3 You did the paws and hands veyr well too.
