A little piece of gift art for Realis, a sexy snow leopard. He asked me about commissions a month back or so, and went strangely mute when I said that I didn't take them, but would do requests.

He didn't actually ask for this. It's close to Feral and I have to sketch like a mad thing if I want to have my page and stuff ready. I had had the inkling to draw him for a while, so I went with it.

The pose is referenced from an actual picture of Realis that he'd posted in his gallery. It seemed to embody him so well, and looked so hard to draw, that I had to try and use it.

He's wearing about 600% more fabric than my average picture, and yet that's maybe a tenth the complexity of his gear... oh well. Enjoy!
