I must confess that I've been sitting on this one for a couple months.
My half of an art trade with C. Martin on Artwanted. This is her character Neosho, a wolfxsquirrel demon. This was a little challenging as the character had only been drawn in the animé style and I do not and have never had the desire to push my art in that direction, thus it was quite a challenge translating him into my own style.
I think I went a little overboard. It just didn't want to be background-less. Colored pencils (pentech and prisma) on bristol board.
I took a lot of progress shots thoughout working on this and put together a tutorial that you can view by clicking on the following links:
