Yes! That's another commission.. I feel so sorry for those who stil waiting! Guys, I know how you feel, believe me! But full color artwork take really long time. You see. I'm posting only sketches and linearts now, cause I can finish them for shorter time.

Ahem! And I can tell you how i LOVE rare themes and rare characters.
Today main person in my pic is Dine! She is nox - canine-like lion with fire on tail who live on Planet from Final Fantasy VII Universe. You can see Dine ONLY in Before Crisis game for Japanese mobile phones. After the end of Red XIII chapter she's gone for hundreds of years, but officially she is the only one who gave birth to Red's cubs.

My commissioner didn't knew that fact - he just asked about female nox who is Nanaki mate. I didn't knew about official character too, but I wrote little fanfiction plot and tried to connect this to canon.

I think it happened 480 years after FFVII. Everyone Red loved is gone and he spent his days traveling across the Planet. And one day, near the Midgar ruins he met her. And was shocked cause he thought that he is last nox on the Planet whole of his life!And he thought that Dine is already gone. He asked her about everything. And she told him that 1000 years ago one of her ancestors left Cosmo Canyon with his family to avoid evil Gi. Father of this little family was against war and he won't his family to be killed in pointless (in his opinion) war with Gi. They started to live on island near the Temple of Ancient. They used ancient magic source to protect they little colony from strangers and than they make themselves invisible to any strangers. She recognized him, but she was afraid to remember sad past and she won't tell him that she was the only one from the clan who arrived at Cosmo Canyon every 50 years before Turks tried to grab her for Hojo.
When Ancient Temple has been destroyed cause of Black Materia, whole secret nox village was destroyed too. The only survivors was Dine, her parents and two older brothers. Some years ago her mother died but before that she gave birth to her little brother. When Red asked the girl's name, she replied "My ancestors teached us not to tell our real names to a stranger even if it's Canyon nox, so you can
call me Noxie." He couldn't recognize her, cause she really changed - when Red saved her from Turks, she was maneless, almost a cub. Now she had a great mane, she looked so gentle and wise, so he just couldn't.

And then they started their relationship and now you see her at days of her pregnancy, and little wondering brother near her ^_^
