Non furry! I wanted to draw the main character of Jim C Hines' "Janitors of the Postapocalypse" series, Marion “Mops” Adamopoulos. I have the feeling 'cured' humans in this setting aren't supposed to look monstrous but I like them to? They're semi-unkillable 'cured' fast zombies with black blood!

Anyway, Mops is a great character, she has a fun mixture of intense empathy for people and a disturbing willingness to resort to great violence if she can't talk her way out of situations nicely.

"When the Krakau came to Earth, they planned to invite humanity into a growing alliance of sentient species.

This would have worked out better for all involved if they hadn’t arrived after a mutated plague wiped out half the planet, turned the rest into shambling, near-unstoppable animals, and basically destroyed human civilization. You know—your standard apocalypse.

The Krakau’s first impulse was to turn their ships around and go home. After all, it’s hard to establish diplomatic relations with mindless savages who eat your diplomats.

Their second impulse was to try to fix us.

A century later, human beings might not be what they once were, but hey, at least they stopped trying to eat everyone. Mostly."
