"Drift" Edward Snow the samoyed is my main character in the Metamor Keep story series. He's a tinsmith by trade and is apparently casting metal rods for later reworking into silverware or other light metal objects.

Madog the mischievous metal-munching mechanical fox is the creation of  captfox and a friend of Drift's... when he's not eating supplies. ;)

(I'm very, very fond of Fable's art style, especially when it comes to Drift. She did an amazing job with him and his fiancee Alexis in the picture "A Rooftop Romance" http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4583423/, and I jumped at the chance for another take of the scene when I saw her available in the Artist's Alley.)
